开了一上午会议,中午与卡森伯格一起用餐,又商议了一些琐事,直到下午艾瑞克才腾出时间了解昨天在cnn上偶然看到的移动通信运营牌照拍卖的事情。∷∷,Anycountryhasradio controllaws, televisionmediumormobile communication, dependence is also the radio wavetransmissions.

任何国家都有着无线电管制法规,无论是电视媒介还是移动通信,依靠的也都是无线电波传输。就像不同电视台拥有不同的无线电波频率一样,不同的电信运营商也被限制在一定的无线电波频率区间内进行经营,美国电视台或者电信运营商从fcc(联邦通信委员会)那里获得的在相应无线电波频率区间内经营业务的授权许可就是所谓的‘牌照’。In the FireflyHeadquartersEricoffice, looksis readingbasic dataEricearnestly, sitsintroducesin a soft voiceinotherdeskone sideKelly: „In the 80's, the wirelessfrequency spectrumresourcesaboutmobile communicationwas the operatorappliestoFCC, thenaccepteditsassignment. However, in recent years the mobile communicationindustryrapidlyriseswith the support of digital technology, the majority ofoperators the frequency spectrumresources that obtainsfromFCCtherewere insufficientin the past, dramaticallyincreasedalong with the applicationquantity of frequency spectrumlicense plate, Clinton Administrationrealized that thiswas a creationfinancial revenuegoodopportunity, is divided intoa, b and cthreedifferentgradeoperational licensesto auction the frequency spectrumresources that the telecom operatorneeded, yesterdaywhatyousawonCNNwasa and auctions of blicense plate, the one whomainlyfacedwas the traditionaltelecommunicationcarrier provider, these twogradelicense plateauctionsaltogethergaveMinistry of Financeto bring the 3.75 billionUSDincome.”萤火虫总部艾瑞克的办公室里,望着认真阅读基础资料的艾瑞克,坐在办公桌另外一边的凯莉轻声介绍道:“八十年代,关于移动通信的无线频谱资源都是运营商向fcc申请,然后接受其分配的。不过,最近几年移动通信产业在数字技术的支持下迅速崛起,大部分运营商以往从fcc那里获得的频谱资源就不够用了,随着频谱牌照的申请数量大幅增加,克林顿正府意识到这是一个创造财政收入的好时机,便将电信运营商需要的频谱资源划分为a、b、c三个不同段位的运营牌照进行拍卖,你昨天在cnn上看到的是a段和b段牌照的拍卖,主要面对的是传统电信营运商,这两个段位的牌照拍卖一共给财政部带来了37.5亿美元的收入。”Ericgains ground, asks: „Thatc?”艾瑞克抬起头,问道:“那c段呢?”Kellysaid: „According to the plan that Clinton Administrationgives, clicense platesmainlyauction the objectaretheseemergingtelecom operators, is usedto supportstemming from the small and medium-sized enterprise of undertakinginitial period, but, thisgradelicense plateauctionedis arrangedthreemonthslater.”凯莉道:“按照克林顿正府给出的方案,c段牌照主要拍卖对像是那些新兴电信运营商,用来扶持出于创业初期的中小企业,不过,这个段位的牌照拍卖被安排在了三个月之后。”Ericpondered over the momentto understandsmiling of joint, somewhattaunted, but also was really the worldcrowis ordinary.艾瑞克琢磨了片刻就明白了其中的关节,有些嘲讽的笑了笑,还真是天下乌鸦一般黑啊。previous lifeEricnotes the linkpubliccomplaintlateto attain the license platethusto miss the 4Glayouttimein the migration, the situation and present in memory were really toosimilar, in whichdifferencealso was just onestemming fromnormal treatmentgambling. Anotherpurelyiseconomicalgambling.前世艾瑞克就注意到联通公开抱怨迟于移动拿到牌照从而错过4g布局时期,记忆中的情形与现在真是太相似了,其中的差别也只不过是一个出于正治博弈。另外一个则纯粹是经济博弈。At present the United Statesmobile communicationindustryfrom the simulated signalto the crucial phase that the digital signalpromotes, the traditionaltelecom operatoron the ownerformidablesuperiority, after attaining the license plate, obtainedthreemonths of leadinglayouttime, the disparityis enlargedagain. Theseattained the emergingtelecom operators of clicense platenot to pursue, Ericcanimagine, even ifattainedclicense plates, when the time comesrelatedsmall and medium-sized enterpriselife that also was annexedby the establishedtelecommunicationgiant.
眼下正是美国移动通信产业从模拟信号向数字信号升级的关键时期,传统电信运营商本来就拥有者强大的优势,拿到牌照之后又获得了三个月的领先布局时间,差距再一次被拉大。那些拿到c段牌照的新兴电信运营商就更加别想追赶了,艾瑞克能够想象,即使拿到c段牌照,到时候相关中小企业也只有被老牌电信巨头吞并的命。Notes the expression on Ericface, Kelly can also guess correctly that heis thinkinganything. Smiled, said: „Youhave definitely guessed correctly, FCCsuchdoes, definitelyisreceivesAT&T and influences of Sprinttheseestablishedtelecom operators. However, thenalsohas a more excessivematter?”
注意到艾瑞克脸上的表情,凯莉也能猜到他在想什么。跟着笑了笑,说道:“你肯定猜到了,fcc这么做,肯定是受到att、sp日nt这些老牌电信运营商的影响。不过,接下来还有更过分的事情呢?”
The Ericdoubtssaid: „What?”艾瑞克疑惑道:“什么?”Kellyin the thickfolderflippedfrom the tabletop, found a documentto giveEric, said: „YoulookedthatthisisFCCregarding the detailedtenderbook that thisfrequency spectrumlicense plateauctions, turnsto12pages, Idrew the red line.”凯莉从桌面上厚厚的文件夹里翻了翻,找到一份文件递给艾瑞克,道:“你看,这是fcc对于这次频谱牌照拍卖的详细招标书,翻到12页,我画了红线。”Ericopenspage number that Kellysaid. Saw the red lineto labela few words: clicense plateswill auctionalone, with the aim ofgiving the ethnic minorities, women, the villagesoperatorsandsmallenterprisemoreopportunities, makinghimobtainfairerenvironment of competition.艾瑞克翻开凯莉所说的页码。看到红线标注了一段话:c段牌照将单独进行拍卖,以便予以少数族裔、妇女、乡镇运营商和微小企业更多机会,使其获得更加公平的竞争环境。Ericreadrepeatedlyseveral, has not discoveredanyissue, gains groundto askcuriously: „These wordshow?”艾瑞克反复读了几遍,都没有发现什么问题,好奇地抬起头问道:“这段话怎么了?”Kellysmiled, said: „Youdefinitelycannot think that auctionedyesterdayjustfinished, somepeoplestartedwiththese words the article, sixsubmittedclicense platebidapplicationsmall businesssimultaneouslyto file the chargeto the federal courtprobably, claimed that in FCCtenderbookinvolved the description of raceandsexviolatesin the United Statesconstitution the provisionaboutnationalequality. Has the discriminationsuspicion, requestingFCCto reviseandapologizesitsaffronting the words.”凯莉笑了笑,道:“你肯定想不到吧,昨天拍卖刚刚结束,就有人拿这句话做起了文章,大概有六家递交了c段牌照投标申请的小企业同时向联邦法院提起诉讼,声称fcc招标书里的这段涉及到种族和性别的描述违背美国宪法中关于国民平等的条款。有歧视嫌疑,要求fcc进行修改并对其冒犯的言辞进行道歉。”Ericthistimereallysomewhatwas stunned.艾瑞克这次是真的有些错愕了。Alsocansuchplay.
还能这么玩儿啊。Rebirththese manyyears, Erichad also understood the United Stateslegal proceedingrule.
重生这么多年,艾瑞克对于美国的法律诉讼规则也有所了解。Sincesomepeoplefiledcharge, thismatterabsolutelywas notFCCsimply the tenderbookwill revisehas been ableto finish up. Everybodyaffirms the attorneyto gather, studies the United Statesconstitutiontogether, having a look atthese wordsreallyto violate the constitution. The constitutionis so thick, turnsonealso1-2months, thisis the so-calledcollectionevidencestage. When the evidencecollected, both sidesalsoneedviolent debatein the court. Even if the local courthas givenruling, ifsomesiderefuses to acceptto rule , to continue to appeal, thatlawsuitcontinuesto hit.
既然有人对此提起了诉讼,这件事就绝对不是fcc简简单单将招标书修改了就能完事的。大家肯定得将律师聚集起来,一起研究研究美国宪法,看看这段话到底是不是真的违宪啊。宪法那么厚,翻一遍也得一两个月吧,这就是所谓的搜集证据阶段。等证据搜集完了,双方还需要在法庭上唇枪舌剑一番。就算地方法院给出了判决结果,如果某一方不服判决,继续上诉,那官司就继续打吧。Finallysuchtossed about, waits forlawsuitto end, it is estimated thatmore than half a yearpassed by.
最终这么一折腾,等官司结束,估计大半年都过去了。clicense plateauctionscompared withaandblatethreemonths, at presentpresentedthislawsuit, it is estimated that the so-calledemergingtelecom operatorat leastmustwait tillcanattain the license platenext year.
c段牌照拍卖本就比a、b段晚了三个月时间,眼下又出现了这种官司,估计所谓的新兴电信运营商至少要等到明年才能拿到牌照了。„Was good, did not proposethis,”Eric the tenderbookwill placeside, puts out a hand that hintedunderto place, althoughdoes not calculateluxuriously, but the office of similarlyfineatmosphere, said with a smile: „Ithought that wediscussedstandpointsome of theseissuesare not right, butInowcapitalist, heartlessthat.”
“好了,不提这个了,”艾瑞克将招标书放在旁边,伸手示意了下自己身处的这间虽然不算奢华但同样精致大气的办公室,笑道:“我觉得我们讨论这些问题的立场有些不对,我现在可是资本家啊,丧尽天良的那种。”Kellyprovoked laughterby the Ericwords, the Ericwordsactuallyalsoright, thismatteris onlybecause occurred is not havingtoo the connectiontelecommunicationdomainwiththem, saw that thissituationsomewill be uneven. But ifsimilarmatter occurred inHollywood, sevenbigdefinitelyalsowithout hesitationwill join up, the successor who will threaten possiblyownstatusstranglesin the cradle.凯莉被艾瑞克的话逗笑了,艾瑞克的话其实也没错,这件事只是因为发生在与他们没有太多关联的电信领域,看到这种情况才会有些不平。但如果类似的事情发生在好莱坞,七大肯定也会毫不犹豫地联合起来,将可能威胁到自己地位的后来者扼杀在摇篮里。„, Eric, are youplanto step in the mobile communication?”
“那么,艾瑞克,你是打算涉足移动通信吗?”Yesterdaysawnews that the push-based mobilelicense plateauctioned, Ericwas truly excited, at present the beginning of mobile communicationindustrybigeruption, invests the telecommunications industry to bring the richrepaymentabsolutely, the instance that butauctionedfromclicense plates can also see, thisinsidewater was really toodeep, beforemaking clearcondition, Ericdid not planto step inrashly.
昨天看到移动运营牌照拍卖的新闻,艾瑞克确实非常心动,眼下正是移动通信产业大爆发的开端,投资电信业绝对能够带来丰厚的回报,但从c段牌照拍卖的事例也能看出,这里面的水实在是太深了,在搞清楚状况之前,艾瑞克并不打算冒然涉足。Shook the headregrettably, Ericis stroking gentlyfrontfolder, said: „Temporarilydoes not considerthese, was right, Kelly, have youcontactedthat sideQualcomm?”
遗憾地摇了摇头,艾瑞克摩挲着面前的文件夹,道:“暂时不考虑这些,对了,凯莉,你接触过高通那边吗?”„Oh, Iwas just aboutto saywithyou.”Kellyput out the memorandumto turnseveralpages, gaveEric a short note, said: „QualcommCEOIrvineJacobis interestedinourcontacts, butherecentlycontinuouslyinSouth Korea. Mustwait tillcanjustcome backnext week. Hecallsme, expressed when the time comeswill flydirectlyLos Angeles, hopes that canchatwithyouface to face, Nà, thisisIrvineJacobin the telephone number of South Koreadwelling. Hesaidyoucantelephoneat any time.”
“哦,我正要跟你说呢。”凯莉拿出备忘录翻了几页,将一张便签递给艾瑞克,道:“高通ceo欧文・雅各布对我们的接触非常感兴趣,只不过他最近一直在韩国。要等到下周才能刚回来。他打电话给我,表示到时候会直接飞来洛杉矶,希望能跟你当面谈谈,呐,这是欧文・雅各布在韩国住处的电话号码。他表示你可以随时打电话过去。”Ericreceivedto come to see the short notepaper, says with a smile: „Qualcommis so earnest, this is not goodto be familiar with, don't theyfear the extreme danger?”艾瑞克将便签纸接过来看了看,笑道:“高通这么热切,这可不是什么好习惯,他们就不怕羊入虎口吗?”„The Qualcommpresentsituationis not good, so far, theyonlystroveto construct the CDMAnetworkinSouth Korea the opportunity, but the South Koreatelecom marketcapacitywas too small, will not produceto the globaloverallcommunicationstandardtooin a big wayaffects. Moreover, oneweek that ago the frequency spectrumlicense plateauctions, AT&Tjustannounced that across the countrywill construct the GSMnetwork. As the federalfirstbigtelecom operator, the AT&Tdefinitecommunicationstandardwill definitely leada group offollowers. The GSMtechnological maturityis much higher than CDMA, once the majority ofoperatorschangeGSM, Qualcommeven could faced withgoing bankrupt,”spoke ofhere, Kelly, said: The Qualcommstock that „that side the Fireflyinvestmentbuys inmustsurpass the 1 millionstockimmediately, ifcontinues, Eric, onceQualcommbankruptcy. Thesestocksbecameare not worth a red cent.”
“高通现在的处境非常不好,到目前为止,他们只在韩国争取到了建设cdma网络的机会,但韩国的电信市场容量太小了,根本不会对全球整体的通信技术标准产生太大影响。而且,在频谱牌照拍卖的一周前,att刚刚宣布将在全国范围内建设gsm网络。作为联邦第一大电信运营商,att确定的通信技术标准肯定会带动一批追随者。gsm的技术成熟度比cdma高得多,一旦大部分运营商都转向gsm,高通甚至可能要面临破产了,”说到这里,凯莉顿了顿,道:“萤火虫投资那边吸纳的高通股票马上就要超过100万股,如果继续的话,艾瑞克,一旦高通破产。这些股票就变得一文不值了。”Qualcomm in 1992IPOaltogetherhas distributed the 6 millionstockcirculationstockfor the first time, occupies30% of totalcapital stock, because ofrising of GSM, Qualcommdevelopssomelagsin recent years. Alsodoes not haveanyfurtherfinancingbehavior.高通1992年首次ipo一共发行了600万股流通股,占据总股本的30%,因为gsm的崛起,高通最近几年发展有些滞后。也就没有任何进一步的融资行为。At present the Qualcommstock pricemerelyaboutpaces back and forthin17USD, the totalmarket value is also only340 million.
眼下高通的股价仅仅在17美元左右徘徊,总市值也只有3.4亿。To be honest, ifcaneatcompletelyQualcomm, Ericwill completely not haveanyhesitation, after all, merelyis the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Showrecording tapeincome. Canbring the 300 millionmulti-USDincomeforhim, butentireFirefly Group, becausedoes not haveanylarge-scaleexpansion plantemporarily, byin the profitability that Hollywoodis second to none, a veryhappyworry that Firefly Groupfacesnowis, moneytoo much.
说心里话,如果能够将高通全部吃下来,艾瑞克完全不会有任何犹豫,毕竟,仅仅是维密大秀的录像带收入。就能为他带来了3亿多美元的收入,而整个萤火虫集团,因为暂时没有任何大规模的扩张计划,凭借在好莱坞首屈一指的盈利能力,萤火虫集团现在面临的一个非常幸福的烦恼就是,钱太多了。„The 1 millionstock is also only17 million,”EricsaidtoKelly: „Iplanat leastto buy in the 3 millionstock, thisalsoonlyneedsto spend50 millionUSD, thisinvestmentalsoquitewith a mediummanufactureinvestmentmovie, even if the dead lossdid not matter.”
“100万股也只是1700万而已,”艾瑞克对凯莉道:“我计划至少吸纳300万股,这样也只需要花掉5000万美元,这笔投资也就相当与一部中等制作投资影片而已,即使全部亏损了也无所谓。”„Yes, does not mattertoyouprobably,”Kellyalsorealizedonesomewhatcarechaotically, 50 millionUSD, regarding the Ericpresentnet worth, trulyis notanything.
“是啊,对你来说好像真的无所谓呢,”凯莉也意识到自己有些关心则乱,5000万美元,对于艾瑞克现在的身家来说,确实不算什么。Theywere discussing, Ericplaced the mobile phone on deskto make a sound.
两人正讨论着,艾瑞克放在办公桌上的移动电话响了起来。
After the connection, and has broadcast the Elizabethsoundat the same time.
接通之后,另外一边传来了伊丽莎白的声音。Ericseveral, have briefly made the telephone call.艾瑞克简单地说了几句,就挂了电话。Kellyalsolistened tosomeinformationfromtheirconversations, asked: „MissMurdoch?”凯莉从两人的交谈中也听出了一些信息,问道:“默多克小姐?”„Un, aboutGolden Globe Award and Oscarmatter, «Saving Private Ryan»and«Braveheart»hitinone, Lizhas mademeto chattwofor the matter of movieaward itempublic relations.”
“嗯,关于金球奖和奥斯卡的事情,《拯救大兵瑞恩》和《勇敢的心》撞在了一起,莉兹约我聊聊两部为影片奖项公关的事情。”Ericwas sayingstanding up, Kellysympathizedto obtain by illegal purchasehisoutside, Ericput out a handto wear the clothes, looks before hanging downin the viewgently, helped itselfbe the femaleassistant of knot, Ericproduces a wifeto deliver the husbandto gowith the misconception of anotherwomanappointmentinexplicably, put out a handto hug the waist of Kelly, said with a smile: „Quitestrange, how do Ifeelsuddenlysomewhatguilty?”艾瑞克说着站起身,凯莉体贴地将他的外套取了过来,艾瑞克伸手将衣服穿上,看着低垂着眼帘上温柔地前帮自己系扣子的女助理,艾瑞克莫名地产生一种妻子送丈夫去跟另外一个女人约会的错觉,伸手搂了搂凯莉的腰肢,笑道:“好奇怪,我怎么突然感觉有些内疚?”Kellysmilessweet, the movement on handhas not stopped, having the mood of someconcubines saying: „Mustmakeyouguilty.”凯莉嫣然而笑,手上的动作并没有停止,带着些许小女人的情绪说道:“就是要让你内疚呢。”„Volume, thismove of youusedto be good, don'tto divulge to an outsider.”
“额,这招你自己用就行了,千万别外传。”„Passes onyou to be very troublesome?”
“传出去你会不会很麻烦?”Ericmakes the vigornod: „Is troublesome.”艾瑞克使劲儿点头:“非常麻烦。”Afterpopularnew yearrunning schedule, regardingHollywood, the matter of primary importance, deals with the presentpromulgationseasonwithout doubt.
热门的新年档期过后,对于好莱坞来说,最重要的事情,无疑是应对眼下的颁奖季了。Tolast yearOscarlunar year in which the last month has 29 days, this yearpromulgationseasonHollywoodsimilarlydoes not have the popular hopesso-calledfilm, buthad the aspect that «Saving Private Ryan»and«Braveheart»pairs of confronted.
相对于去年的奥斯卡小年,今年颁奖季好莱坞同样没有众望所谓的电影作品,而是出现了《拯救大兵瑞恩》和《勇敢的心》双强对峙的局面。Although the Oscarnominationhas not drawn a charge, butinquiteimportantmovietelevisionGolden Globe Awardnomination, twomovieunusualcoincidenceshas simultaneously attained the bestplotmovie, bestDirector, the best actorandbestscreenwriteranddubs in musicbestfivenominations. Mel the performance of Gibson can only be common, Ericremembersin the originalspace and timehehas not attainedanybest actorto nominate, nowonGolden Globe Awardare manythis kind ofnomination should be the Weinsteinpublic relationsachievement.
虽然奥斯卡提名还没有出炉,但在比较重要的电影电视金球奖提名上,两部影片非常巧合地同时拿到了最佳剧情影片、最佳导演、最佳男主角、最佳编剧和最佳配乐五项提名。梅尔・吉布森的表演只能算一般,艾瑞克记得原时空中他并没有拿到过什么最佳男主角提名,现在金球奖上多了这样一个提名应该算是韦恩斯坦的公关成果。Before more than oneyear, EricandElizabethtothesetwomovieshas the discussionto the prizestrategy, but, the planalwayscannot keep up with the change, a lotalsoneedto changeaccording toimmediatelysituation.
早在一年多以前,艾瑞克与伊丽莎白就对这两部影片的冲奖策略有过讨论,不过,计划总是赶不上变化,很多事情还需要根据当下的情况进行变更。Under the reasonableoperation of Miramax, «Braveheart»comparedthatinoriginalspace and timeto result in the award itemactuallyto lose the edition of Box OfficeonBox Officeto be without doubt more successful.
在米拉麦克斯的合理运作下,《勇敢的心》在票房上相较于原时空中的那个得了奖项却失去了票房的版本无疑更加成功。Small scale of «Braveheart»starting fromearly last Decemberscreened , to continue the reputationandBox Office, during Christmas day, Miramaxwill screen the scaleto increase to2000at one fell swoop, byadvertisementreputationaccumulation of effectandlong-lineoperation that the Golden Globe Awardnominationissuebrought, movie, when the weekhas attained2more than 6 millionUSDBox Office, at presentjust the firstweekafternew year, «Braveheart»totalBox Officeapproached60 million, underfierytopicpromotion that in the promulgationseasoncontinued, many end of the yearrunning schedulemovieBox Officefellin abundancelargely, but«Braveheart»weekBox Officeactuallystronglywas maintaining the weak about 20%decline ranges, ifthis.

《勇敢的心》从去年12月初开始小规模上映,持续累计口碑和票房,圣诞节期间,米拉麦克斯将上映规模一举增加到了2000家,凭借金球奖提名发布带来的广告效应和长线运营的口碑积累,影片当周就拿到了2600多万美元的票房,眼下刚刚进入新年后的第一周,《勇敢的心》总票房已经接近6000万,在颁奖季持续的火热话题度促进下,很多年底档期影片票房纷纷大幅下跌,但《勇敢的心》周票房却坚挺地保持着微弱的20%左右跌幅,如果这。种情况持续到奥斯卡,《勇敢的心》的总票房保守估计也在1.2亿美元左右,拥有奥斯卡奖傍身,《勇敢的心》通过海外发行,很可能在票房上就能收回全部成本。EricleavesFireflyHeadquarters, arrives atBeverly Hills ManorHollywoodcelebritiesto visit the open-air restaurantaccording to the address that Elizabethgivesfrequently, althoughisafternoongoing to work, butin the dining roomgatheredleisurely and carefreehas drunk the guest who the coffeewas chattingat will, manysomefaces of knowing well.

寒暄着穿过人群,艾瑞克在餐厅露台上见到了伊丽莎白和哈维・韦恩斯坦。Sits downin the table, optional point: the coffee, Ericlooksto the sideparapetis covered with the gentle slope of bush, board game pieceto scatter the Beverlymansionas well as the distant place in field of visionin the Los Angelesurban district that take in everything at a glance, the nodsaid the cup„Heresceneryis really good, no wonderthese manyguests.”
在桌边坐下,随意点了杯咖啡,艾瑞克望向身旁栏杆外长满灌木的缓坡、棋子般散落在视野内的比弗利豪宅以及远处一览无余的洛杉矶市区,点头道:“这里的风景真不错,怪不得这么多客人。”HarveyWeinsteinsmilessaid: „Eric, if after likingyou, cancomefrequently, the master in thisdining roomis the friend of mine, Imakehimexempt the listtoyou.”哈维・韦恩斯坦满脸笑容地说道:“艾瑞克,如果喜欢的话你以后可以经常过来,这家餐厅的主人是我的朋友,我让他给你免单。”Erichas hintedunderas beforerepeatedlyto the look that themglances, cracks a joke saying: „Exemptsdefinitelyis only insufficient, perhapsifIChangto come, yourfriendmustgivemeadvertising expenditureanything.”艾瑞克示意了下依旧频频向他们这边瞟过来的眼神,开玩笑道:“免单肯定是不够的,我如果常来的话,你那位朋友或许得给我广告费什么的。”ElizabethandHarveyhave smiled, ifEricpatronizesherereallyfrequently, hitvariousthoughtsto attemptin the dining roomto approachhisguestdefinitelydoubled and re-doubledto increase, pourscompares a billboardto usereallyfortunately.伊丽莎白和哈维都笑了起来,如果艾瑞克真的经常光顾这里,打着各种心思企图在餐厅里接近他的客人肯定成倍增加,倒真比一个广告牌还好用了。Threepeoplechattedat willa while, the topicgraduallychanges to the promulgationseason.( To be continued.)
三人随意闲聊了一会儿,话题才逐渐转到颁奖季上。(未完待续。)
