第754章Saw that the Virginiawhole personshrankto have the smallmoodin the sofa, Ericmustshout the servanttook awaythreekids, thenpushedto the sofaon, hugged the woman, urged: „Was good, stronger must have a limit, the Xiaxiasituationwas more special, alwaysdo not takeKevinandshecompares. ¥ f,”
看到维吉尼娅整个人缩在沙发里闹起了小情绪,艾瑞克只得喊来佣人将三个小家伙带走,然后挤到沙发上,将女人抱过来,劝道:“好了,要强也要有个限度吧,夏夏的情况特殊了一些,不要总拿凯文和她比。¥f,”Virginiahas dependedtoward the Ericbosom, saidin a low voice: „I, IalsoknowthatIwas worried, fearedyouwill not likein the future, does not likeKevin.”维吉尼娅朝艾瑞克怀里靠了靠,低声道:“我,我也知道,我就是担心,怕你将来不喜欢,不喜欢凯文。”Listens to the Virginiasomewhatroughlywords, Ericactuallyto knowsheis worriedmore thanthese.
听着维吉尼娅有些磕磕绊绊地话,艾瑞克却知道她心里担心的远不止这些。AlthoughwomanneverathissurfacepremiseanymatteraboutHawaiifund, the foreign investmentfund that butEricinitiallywhile the whim lastsset upwith the daughternameproducedtoVirginiatouched, rose suddenlyalong withthese yearsNokiamarket value, Nokia51%stockmarket values that Hawaiifundhadalreadyover3billionUSD. Somesmalldetails that is always swayed by personal gains and lossesfromVirginiafor these years, Ericcanrealizeherregardingfutureworry.
虽然女人从来没有在他面前提过任何关于夏威夷基金的事情,但艾瑞克当初兴之所至地用女儿名字设立的海外投资基金还是对维吉尼娅产生了一些触动,随着这几年诺基亚的市值暴涨,夏威夷基金旗下持有的诺基亚51%股份市值已经超过30亿美元。从维吉尼娅这几年来总是患得患失的一些小细节里,艾瑞克就能够体会到她对于未来的担忧。Anybodyhas the tendentiousness, Ericalsoacknowledgedoneare impossiblealwaysmaintainsholds a bowl of water steady. Although the births of twokidsinEricis unexpected, buthisactuallyanyresistancementality, insteadhas not beenquitegratified, at least, inthisstrangeworld, hehadtwoblood relationshipclosefamily members.
任何人都是有倾向性的,艾瑞克也承认自己不可能总是保持一碗水端平。虽然两个小家伙的出生在艾瑞克的预料之外,但他却并没有任何抗拒心态,反而是比较欣慰的,至少,在这个陌生的世界上,他已经拥有了两个血缘紧密的亲人。Is holdingVirginia, consideringmoment, Eric saying: „Vicky, Buffettinvitedmeto attend a meetingon Thursday, youwentwithmetogether.”
抱着维吉尼娅,考虑了片刻,艾瑞克道:“维姬,巴菲特邀请我周四参加一个聚会,你跟我一起去吧。”Virginiarealized, sinceEricopens the mouthseriously, thismeetingabsolutelywill not beordinaryparty, leadingherto attendquiteinpublicizingacknowledgeshercertainstatusto the outside. Somewhatpleasantly surprisedgains ground, butonherfacepresents the hesitantlookimmediately: „That, Joan?”维吉尼娅意识到,艾瑞克既然郑重其事地开口,这种聚会就绝对不会是普普通通的派对,带她出席就相当于公开向外界承认她的某些身份。有些惊喜地抬起头,但她脸上随即又出现犹豫的神色:“那,琼呢?”„Icanwithhersay that youalsoknow, Joanwill not be interestedtothesematters.”
“我会和她说的,你也知道,琼对这些事情不会太感兴趣。”Bit the liphesitant the moment, Virginiahas been making very bigresolution, shook the head: „, consider as finished, Ido not think that thismatteraffectsmeandJoanrelations.”
咬着嘴唇犹豫了片刻,维吉尼娅下了很大决心,还是摇了摇头:“还是,算了,我不想这件事影响我和琼的关系。”„I said that Joanwill certainly understand that suchhas decided that over the two daysyoufound timeto electto harnessformal clothes,”Erichas pattedVirginia, did not allow the womanto refute, changes the topic, said: „The movie, youthisdid feelrecentlywhat kind of?”
“我说了,琼一定会理解的,就这么定了,这两天你抽空选一套好点的礼服,”艾瑞克拍了拍维吉尼娅,不容女人反驳,转开了话题,道:“说说电影吧,你最近这部感觉怎么样?”VirginiaseesEricto change the topic, no longerresists, said: „Since «The Others», I can only developMamanow, thistime, issingleMama.”维吉尼娅见艾瑞克转开话题,也不再抗拒,道:“自从《小岛惊魂》后,我现在就只能演妈妈了啊,这次,还是单亲妈妈。”Ericsmiled, said: „At leastisattractivesingleMama.”艾瑞克笑了笑,道:“至少是漂亮的单亲妈妈。”Was saying, dáclip clop the fastsound of footstepstransmits, Erichas not turned the headwith enough time, a fragrantsmallbodyhas puthimandbetweenVirginia, rubsto pushrandomlyVirginia, calledgreasily: „Eric.”
正说着,一阵哒哒哒地快速脚步声传来,艾瑞克还没来得及转头,一个香喷喷的小身子就扑在了他和维吉尼娅中间,乱蹭着将维吉尼娅挤开,腻腻地叫到:“艾瑞克。”Virginia that was pushedhas pulled outon the Drewthighangry, the girlis not seriousrobustly, kicked legslaughingtwo, as beforegreasyonEric.
被挤开的维吉尼娅气恼地在德鲁大腿上抽了一下,丫头皮实地丝毫不当回事,嘻嘻哈哈地踢腾了两下,依旧腻在艾瑞克身上。Virginiaactuallyalsohasto set outto letthoroughly the single-seat sofa, the principletakes care ofsomewhatclothesin disorder, said: „Almostmustprepare the supper, do not maketoofor a long time.”维吉尼娅却也只好起身将单人沙发彻底让出来,理了理有些零乱的衣服,道:“差不多要准备晚餐了,你们不要闹太久。”Virginiasaid that left the room, Erichas been hugging the smallwaist of girl, asked: „Whenarrives atNew York?”维吉尼娅说完离开了房间,艾瑞克搂着丫头的小腰,问道:“什么时候到纽约的?”Drewfalls the light tansmallleather bootsstep on on foot, the whole personcurls upsideEric, said: „Shortly, in the morning and Amyonairplane, shewent toManhattanandFranktogetherconverges.”德鲁将脚上的驼色小皮靴蹬掉,整个人蜷在艾瑞克身旁,道:“没多长时间呢,上午和艾米一起上的飞机,她去曼哈顿和弗兰克汇合了。”Ericonlypays attention to the Metro Goldwyn Mayercardinal principlesurvey, will not meddleto the concretemanagementdesirably, thistimehas not expectedAmybut actuallyPascalwill also catch up withNew York, asked: „At the end of the year the running schedulemoviereleasecritical moment, yourthree do leaveLos Angelesto be appropriate?”艾瑞克只关注米高梅的大体概况,并不会对具体经营刻意插手,这次倒没有料到艾米・帕斯卡尔也会赶来纽约,问道:“年底档期影片发行正是关键时刻吧,你们三个都离开洛杉矶合适吗?”„Thistimeis very importantmatter, mustdiscuss that abouttoissuing additionally the adjustment of stockfixed price, thesemonths of NASDAQindicesrose16%, alreadyover750points. Ifdefers toas beforeseveralmonths ago fixed prices, wewill suffer a lossvery much. In any caseat the end of the yearrunning schedulewe, only then《Scream》 and «Mean Girls»twolow costmovies, temporarilyleave for severaldaysnot to relate.”
“这次是很重要的事情,要讨论关于对增发股票定价的调整,这几个月纳斯达克指数上涨了16%,已经超过750点了。如果依旧按照几个月前的定价,我们会很吃亏啊。反正年底档期我们只有《惊声尖叫》和《贱女孩》两部低成本影片,暂时离开几天还是没关系的。”In the memoryNASDAQindexrose dramaticallysince1995, the Ericrebirthhas not changedtoomanymatters, was listening to the words of girl, buthas pinchedhercheek, said with a smile: „Good, cansaythat manyspecializedterms, it seems likethesemonthsstudied hard.”
记忆中纳斯达克指数就是从1995年开始飙升的,艾瑞克的重生并没有改变太多事情,听着丫头的话,只是捏了捏她的脸蛋,笑道:“不错嘛,能一口气说出那么多专业名词,看来这几个月还是用功了的。”Drewopens mouthto nipto the finger of Eric, discontentedsay|way: „Repugnant, before me, is very stupid?”德鲁张嘴咬向艾瑞克的手指,不满道:“讨厌,难道我以前很笨么?”„It is not stupid, isintelligent as uselessas the place.”Ericshunts the LittleBaitooth of girl, said: „After price adjustment, how manyfundscanraiseprobably?”
“不笨,就是聪明没用到正地方。”艾瑞克躲开丫头的小白牙,道:“价格调整之后,大概能募集多少资金?”„Removesvarioushandling charges, probably1billion50 millionUSD,”Drew said that alsosaid: „Was right, yesterdaytime, Morgan StanleyChairmanSeymourJillBertinvitesusto attend a cocktail partytomorrow evening, healsoasked that yourhas had free timeto gotogether?”
“去除各种手续费,大概10亿5000万美元吧,”德鲁说完,又道:“对了,昨天来的时候,摩根士丹利的董事长西摩・吉尔伯特邀请邀请我们明天晚上参加一个酒会呢,他还问你有没有空一起去?”Because of the relations of Chris, the Fireflysystemis maintainingwithMorgan Stanleyclosely the cooperation, issues additionallyexcept forthistimeMetro Goldwyn Mayerstock, the AOLlisting and Nokia that stockrecentlyover six monthscontinuouslyarrangedlicensesto tradein the United Statesstock marketis also responsible forbyMorgan Stanley, the AOLdate and Nokialicensetimehas decided in January of next year, ifboth sidesdo not have the toobigdifference, in the futureYahooIPOdefinitelyalsowill hand overbyMorgan Stanleyis responsible, but, Erichad not seenMorgan StanleyChairmanSeymouractuallyJillBert, sincethere is this opportunity, hehas then nodded assent: „Good, tomorrowwhere?”
因为克里斯的关系,萤火虫体系一直与摩根士丹利保持着紧密地合作关系,除了这次的米高梅股票增发,最近半年多一直在筹备的美国在线上市和诺基亚股票在美国股市挂牌交易也都由摩根士丹利负责,美国在线的上市时间和诺基亚的挂牌时间都已经定在了明年一月份,如果双方不产生太大的分歧,未来雅虎的ipo肯定也会交由摩根士丹利负责,只不过,艾瑞克倒是一直没有见过摩根士丹利的董事长西摩・吉尔伯特,既然有这次机会,他便点头同意了下来:“好吧,明天什么地方?”„Manhattan......”girlwas crooked the headto think, said: „Specific addresscannot remember, when the time comessomepeoplemeetin any caseour.”
“曼哈顿……”丫头歪着脑袋想了下,道:“具体地址记不住嘛,反正到时候有人来接我们的。”Ericnodded, said: „Sinceissued additionally the timeto decide on December9, the 《Scream》releaseeffort that Thanksgivingscreenedagainincreased, although the markethas been full ofconfidencewithMetro Goldwyn Mayer, but the Box Officesuccess of thislow costmovie, canplay the goodadvantageto affect.”艾瑞克点了点头,道:“既然增发时间定在12月9日,感恩节上映的《惊声尖叫》发行力度就再增加一些,虽然市场已经对米高梅充满了信心,但这部低成本影片的票房成功,还是能够起到不错的利好作用的。”„Iknow that Amyhas also thought that the manufacturebudget of thismovieis14millionUSD, weplanto invest10 milliononannouncement. IffirstweekBox Officeis good, but can also continueto supplement.”
“我知道啊,艾米也想到了,这部电影的制作预算是1400万美元,我们计划在宣发上投入1000万。如果首周票房不错的话,还可以继续追加。”Ericcontinues saying: „Moreover, matter that sinceissues additionallyanyissue, thatnext few yearsMetro Goldwyn Mayer will again not have lacked the fund, therefore, youreceiveas soon as possiblemoviecopyright of Metro Goldwyn Mayerforeignauthorization.”艾瑞克继续道:“另外,既然增发的事情已经没什么问题,那未来几年米高梅都不会再缺乏资金,所以,你们尽快将米高梅对外授权的电影版权收回来。”Drewum, looked atEricto wait for that hecontinued.德鲁嗯了一声,望着艾瑞克等待他继续说下去。Erichad been considering the issue of chargewiredstage, Firefly, Fox and Metro Goldwyn MayerthreebigFilm Studiodatabasescaleshave surpassed the 10,000unitabout the collectionat present, butthreecompaniesspeciallyhave not actually broadcast the chargewiredstage of movie, can only sell toothercompaniescopyright. Originally, the bestchoicepurchases certainly the hwave in Time Warnerhand, the Time Warnerrecenttwoyears of conditions are not quite good, Ericalsothoughtthisopportunity, butprevioustime, becauselInternet ExplorertimeTV StationmatterTerry when Semelcomesto visit, Erichas probedopposite partyseveral, without hesitationwas actually rejected.艾瑞克一直都在考虑收费有线台的问题,眼下萤火虫、福克斯、米高梅三家大电影公司的片库规模合集已经超过一万部,但三家公司却都没有专门播放电影的收费有线台,只能将版权卖给其他公司。原本,最好的选择当然是收购时代华纳手中的h波,时代华纳最近两年的状况都不太好,艾瑞克原本也以为有这个机会,但上次因为lietime电视台的事情特里・塞梅尔前来拜访时,艾瑞克试探过对方几句,却被毫不犹豫地拒绝了。Althoughalsonotby«Sex and the City»and«****Family»and otheroriginalanthologyprominence, butrelies on the cable television operatorplatform in Time Warnerhand, the operationcondition of hwavehas been good, it can be said thatTime WarnerandTurnerbroadcasting companysimilarpremium asset, in this case, even ifTerrySemelwill agreeto strip the sell, Time WarnerBoard of Directorswill not agree, therefore, only ifentirewill swallowTime Warner, otherwise, Ericwill wantto buy the hwave the desireto be very difficultto realize.
虽然还没有凭借《欲旺都市》、《****家族》等原创剧集声名鹊起,但凭借时代华纳手中的有线电视运营平台,h波的运营状况却一直都非常良好,可以说是时代华纳旗下与特纳广播公司类似的优质资产,这种情况下,即使特里・塞梅尔同意剥离出售,时代华纳董事会都不会同意,因此,除非将时代华纳整个吞下来,否则,艾瑞克想要买下h波的愿望很难实现。Is consideringthese, Ericcontinues saying: „Youare handlingthesemattersfirst, muststop the newtelevisionbroadcastauthorizationimmediately, Iwill planto foundoneto broadcast the chargewiredstage of movienext yearspecially, FireflyandMetro Goldwyn Mayeralsowill have when the time comesFox, ourthreewill cooperate.”
考虑着这些,艾瑞克继续说道:“你们先做着这些事情吧,同时也要立刻停止新的电视播放授权,我打算明年创建一家专门播放电影的收费有线台,到时候萤火虫、米高梅还有福克斯,我们三家合作。”
The girlshave turnedturningonEric, said: „Ourtwo aren't good?”
丫头在艾瑞克身上扭了扭,道:“就我们两家不行吗?”„Youknow that myplan,”Ericsmiled, said: „Therefore, ifyouare not willing to dowithLiz, makesAmytheybe responsible.”
“你知道我的计划的,”艾瑞克笑了笑,道:“所以,如果你不愿意和莉兹打交道,就让艾米他们负责。”„Goodgood.”
“好吧好吧。”Theydo not know how longchatted, hearsknockgently, Ericturns head, Joannais standingin the gatelookstothem: „Eric, Drew, shouldhave the dinner.”
两人不知道聊了多久,身后传来轻轻的敲门声,艾瑞克扭头,乔安娜正站在门边看向两人:“艾瑞克,德鲁,该吃晚饭了。”„Good,”Ericdraws the girlto standtogether, arrives atcorridor, Joannahas drawnonhissleevesgently.
“好的,”艾瑞克拉着丫头一起站起来,来到门外的走廊,身旁的乔安娜轻轻在他衣袖上拉了拉。EricsawJoannaas ifto haveanymatter to saythathas pushedDrew: „Youget downfirst, our comes.”艾瑞克见乔安娜似乎有什么事情要说,推了推德鲁:“你先下去吧,我们这就过来。”Drewhas made the dim daylightyounger sister'ssmalllook, has not saidanything, walkstoward the staircase.德鲁做了个暧妹的小眼神,没说什么,朝楼梯走去。„How?”Looks that the Drewformdisappears, Ericasked that Joannasaid.
“怎么了?”看着德鲁身影消失,艾瑞克问乔安娜道。„Youcomewithme,”JoannabringsEricto come toherbedroom, puts out a pinkgift boxfrom the headdrawer, givesEric, said: „ThisisTerrySemelmakes the persondeliverin the morningsuddenly.”
“你跟我来,”乔安娜带着艾瑞克来到她卧室,从床头抽屉里拿出一个粉色的礼品盒,递给艾瑞克,道:“这是特里・塞梅尔早上突然让人送过来的。”Ericextractsto clamp the finecardongift box, seesaboveto writeoneline of characters: TobeautifulandintelligentHawaiiMissWilliams, TerrySemelpresents as a gift.艾瑞克抽出夹在礼品盒上的精致卡片,看到上面写着一行字:给美丽、聪明的夏威夷・威廉姆斯小姐,特里・塞梅尔赠。Smiled, Ericdisassemblespacking paperdirectly, insideisonebox of recording tape, on the attractivequantitypacking boxis printing a picture of Antarcticpenguin, the titleis«PenguinWorld».
笑了笑,艾瑞克直接将包装纸拆开,里面是一盒录像带,漂亮的数量包装盒上印着一张南极企鹅的图片,标题是《企鹅世界》。Watches an looks likedocumentary film, Ericknowsactuallyprevious lifeWarnerhas distributedfamous«EmperorPenguinDiary», butthisactuallyobviouslyis not.
看着像一部纪录片,艾瑞克倒是知道前世华纳发行过一部大名鼎鼎的《帝企鹅日记》,但这部却显然不是。Joannasees the title page of recording tape, on the faceshowslooksuddenly, Terryof that day the smallinterlude that betweenSemelandHawaiihavesaidtoEric.( To be continued.)乔安娜看到录像带的封面,脸上露出恍然的神色,将那天特里・塞梅尔与夏威夷之间发生的小插曲跟艾瑞克讲了一下。(未完待续。)
