Felt faintly some people are staring at to look, Christina Aguilera opens eyes, notes Eric to sit facing the smile in the bedside exactly. 隐隐地感觉到有人在盯着自己看,克里斯蒂娜・阿奎莱拉睁开眼,恰好注意到艾瑞克面对微笑地坐在床边。 All sorts of pictures of last night emerged mind quickly, felt thinly the contact that did not hinder by inside body and bed, the Christina cheek micro was red to draw by the corner/horn, greeted low voice: „Early, Eric.” 昨晚的种种画面很快涌入脑海,感受到薄被里面身体与大床毫无阻碍的接触,克里斯蒂娜脸蛋微红着拉了拉被角,小声打招呼:“早啊,艾瑞克。” „Visits you to rest such soundly, does not know that should awaken you,” Eric puts out a hand, on a wisp of uncombed hair the girl cheeks opens out gently, looks in her expression to have some small tense appearances, asked: „Is uncomfortable?” “看你睡得这么香,不知道该不该叫醒你,”艾瑞克伸手过来,温柔地将女孩脸颊上一缕乱发拨开,看她表情里带着些许小紧张的模样,问道:“还不舒服吗？” „Un, felt that like having the thing......” the Christina eyelash is hanging down, said that half somewhat embarrassed stop. “嗯,感觉就像有东西……”克里斯蒂娜睫毛低垂着,说道一半就有些不好意思停下来。 „That these days here rested, the place that you lived in definitely did not have here good, I helped you order the breakfast, when got out of bed, telephones to the custom service, they will deliver, there are other needs also my assistant to call,” Eric was saying, placed on a small card the headstock: „This is his number.” “那这几天就在这里休息吧,你住的地方肯定没这里好,我帮你点了早餐,什么时候起床,打电话给客服服务,他们会送过来的,有其他需要也可以给我的助理打电话,”艾瑞克说着,将一张小卡片放在床头柜上:“这是他的号码。” Christina somewhat loses is looking at Eric, said: „Do you want to work?” 克里斯蒂娜有些失落地望着艾瑞克,道:“你要去工作了吗？” „Yes, eight points, No. several hundred person has been possible in I.” “是啊,已经八点了,几百号人可都在等我。” Christina nods, said cleverly: „Un, that bye.” 克里斯蒂娜点点头,乖巧地说道:“嗯,那,再见。” „Bye,” Eric collects, kisses on the girl cheek, Christina also boldly lifted the small head to kiss, but also stretched out the tip of tongue to lick on the Eric face mischievously under. “再见,”艾瑞克凑过来,在女孩脸蛋上吻了吻,克里斯蒂娜也大胆地抬起小脑袋吻了回来,还调皮地伸出舌尖在艾瑞克脸上舔了下。 Eric did not mind that said with a smile: „It looks like only the small kitty.” 艾瑞克也不介意,笑道:“真像只小猫咪啊。” Christina also hee hee smiles, said: „Eric, you as if like the cat.” 克里斯蒂娜也嘻嘻笑着,道:“艾瑞克,你似乎很喜欢猫呢。” „No, I do not like cat, I like the cat same woman, docile, lazy and mysterious, naturally, occasionally also meets the fondness of countryside to make threatening gestures difficultly docilely.” “不,我不喜欢猫,我喜欢猫一样的女人,温顺、慵懒、神秘,当然,偶尔也会野性难驯张牙舞爪。” The Christina eye winked fast winking, said: „Do I make your small kitty?” 克里斯蒂娜眼睛快速眨了眨,道:“那我做你的小猫咪好吗？” „Does not have the issue,” Eric smiled, has pinched pinching on the Christina cheek, stands up saying: „ I have worked, um, waits for this week of rest time, “没问题,”艾瑞克笑了笑,在克里斯蒂娜脸蛋上捏了捏,站起身道:“那我去工作了,嗯,等这周休息的时候, Leads you to play again, where wants to go to? ” 再带你去玩,想去哪里？” On the Christina face shows excited expression, but also said: „I am not familiar with Venice, which me Eric you go to go.” 克里斯蒂娜脸上露出兴奋的表情,但又说道:“我对威尼斯不熟悉呢,艾瑞克你去哪我就去哪。” „This is not good, Venice Film Festival almost must start, we here make a movie, therefore the reporters in Venice were too recently many, here will play definitely is besieged and pursued to block off, we must run, will Paris be what kind of?” “这可不行,威尼斯电影节差不多就要开始了,我们又在这里拍戏,所以最近威尼斯的记者太多了,在这里玩肯定会被围追堵截的,我们得跑的远一点,巴黎怎么样？” The Christina small head has not turned around, she wants certainly to go to Paris, which girl also there are not to yearn for Paris, but, dramatic team every week only then a day of holiday, can run is so far? 克里斯蒂娜小脑瓜没有转过来,她当然想去巴黎,又有哪个女孩子不向往巴黎呢,只不过,剧组每周只有一天休息日,可以跑那么远吗？ Eric is somewhat puzzled in small expression to guess correctly that from Christina girl's idea, has pinched pinching on her cheek, had not explained that said with a smile: „Then on Paris, I have worked first, you continue to rest, when wants to get out of bed good.” 艾瑞克从克里斯蒂娜有些困惑小表情里就猜到女孩的想法,在她脸蛋上捏了捏,也没有解释,笑道:“那就巴黎了,我先去工作,你继续睡吧,想什么时候起床都行。” Royal Court Eric beckoned with the hand, the form that sees the man vanishes, leans the small ear to wait for a while patiently, finally hears in the living room the slight closing sound. 朝艾瑞克摆了摆手,见男人的身影消失,侧着小耳朵耐心等了一会儿,终于听到客厅里轻微的关门声。 Also has depended on a while on the bed, Christina then crawls, actually first telephones to own assistant Emilia, explained ambiguously last night stayed in the hotel that Eric was, has not brought to light, she believes that the female assistant was also well aware, told that opposite party for these days at will, Christina has made the telephone call, gave out the room service to want the breakfast, filled the belly, the girl then fell down on the bed, went off quickly. 又在床上赖了一会儿,克里斯蒂娜这才爬起来,却是先打电话给自己的助理米莉亚,含糊地解释了一下自己昨晚留在了艾瑞克所在的酒店里,并没有挑明,她相信女助理也心知肚明,吩咐对方这几天自己随意,克里斯蒂娜挂了电话,又拨给客房服务要了早餐,填饱肚子,女孩便又扑倒在大床上,很快睡去。 Wakes up once more unexpectedly is in the evening, outside the thick window curtains almost does not have the ray to pass. 再次醒来竟然已经是傍晚,厚厚的窗帘外几乎没有光线透进来。 The living room has the sounds of people to transmit faintly, Christina wears the clothes softly, arrives at entrance to open the door, discovers in the living room, only then a Eric person is telephoning, this walks. 客厅隐隐有人声传来,克里斯蒂娜轻手轻脚地穿好衣服,走到门口拉开门,发现客厅里只有艾瑞克一个人在打电话,这才走出来。 Eric sees Christina to go out of the bedroom, nodded toward her, has referred to the opposite sofa. 艾瑞克见克里斯蒂娜走出卧室,朝她点了点头,指了指自己对面沙发。 Christina walks, sits down on the sofa, she only wears a personal small T-shirt and jeans at this time, barefoots, in room floor, although is very clean, does not have the carpet, felt that ground slightly cool, Christina then shrinks the calf, holds a back cushion entire to curl up on the sofa, listens to Eric to telephone peacefully. 克里斯蒂娜走过来,在沙发上坐下,她此时只穿着一件贴身小t恤和牛仔裤,赤着脚,屋子里地板虽然很干净,却没有铺地毯,感觉地面有些微凉,克里斯蒂娜便缩起小腿,抱着一只靠枕整个蜷在沙发上,安安静静地听艾瑞克打电话。 „If in this case, the 300 million USD price, we can accept,” Eric is taking the telephone, reads is placing the blue folder on knee, was discussing anything with the opposite: „But, in the payment deadline we cannot make the concession, settles Berlin to want «The Matrix» copyright, that must after signing the contract as soon as possible the sum total effect payment. 300 million USD, Jeffrey, by the Berlin back Microsoft strength, so long as their sincerity wants to achieve this transaction, can definitely take.” “如果这样的话,3亿美元的价格,我们可以接受,”艾瑞克一手拿着电话,翻看着放在膝盖上的蓝色文件夹,与对面讨论着什么:“不过,付款期限上我们不能做出让步,安柏林想要《黑客帝国》版权,那就必须在签署合约后尽快全额支付款项。只是3亿美元而已,杰弗瑞,以安柏林背后微软的实力,只要他们真心想要达成这笔交易,肯定能拿得出来。” Christina hears Eric that superficial 300 million USD, has spat under the tongue, she also knows that Firefly is selling the «The Matrix» sequel copyright matter, but has not thought that this movie copyright is so valuable, 300 million USD. 克里斯蒂娜听到艾瑞克那轻描淡写的3亿美元,吐了下舌头,她也知道萤火虫正在出售《黑客帝国》续集版权的事情,只是没想到这部电影版权这么值钱,3亿美元啊。 Eric exactly the petty action that notes Christina to stick out one's tongue, thinks that girl in mischievous, wielded starting toward her, hint cannot do strangely. 艾瑞克恰好注意到克里斯蒂娜吐舌头的小动作,以为女孩在调皮,朝她挥了下手,示意不许搞怪。 Christina shrank under the neck, smiled toward Eric. 克里斯蒂娜缩了下脖子,朝艾瑞克笑了笑。 „Also the matter,” Eric and Katzenberg finish talking the «The Matrix» matter , to continue saying: „I had looked at «RMS Titanic» Large expanse, except for the piece postlude, other did not have any issue, Jim has flown back to Los Angeles to handle the new piece postlude in the morning the matter, the song was I writes personally, you made that side the phonograph record department coordinate, handled before the Venice Film Festival opening ceremony as far as possible, the announcement work can start now, I did not plan to Large expanse to compress again, therefore, you made the release department discuss that the corresponding announcement plan came out.” “还有还有一件事,”艾瑞克与卡森伯格谈完《黑客帝国》的事情,继续道:“我已经看过《泰坦尼克号》成片了,除了片尾曲,其他都没什么问题,吉姆上午已经飞回洛杉矶搞定新的片尾曲的事情了,歌曲是我亲自写的,你让唱片部门那边配合一下,尽量在威尼斯电影节开幕式之前搞定,还有,宣发工作现在就可以启动了,我不打算再对成片进行压缩,所以,你让发行部门讨论出相应的宣发方案出来。” „......” “……” „«Bad Boys 2»?” Eric has hesitated, thinks that said: „With «RMS Titanic», I knows same time you to this movie anything confidence, the plans of other companies we have not had no right the interference, but Firefly cannot ambush itself, is the extension, will place next year the summer files, this sequel should also have to haunch summer the files strength...... Un, that this.” “《绝地战警2》？”艾瑞克迟疑了下,想了想,道:“还是不要和《泰坦尼克号》同期了,我知道你们对这部影片没什么信心,其他公司的计划我们无权干涉,但萤火虫总不能自己狙击自己,还是延期吧,放在明年暑期档,这部续集也应该拥有撑起暑期档的实力了……嗯,那就这样。” Hangs the power failure words, sees Christina to lean the appearance that the small ear is listening attentively, Eric smiles, beckons toward her. 挂掉电话,见克里斯蒂娜侧着小耳朵倾听的模样,艾瑞克笑笑,朝她招了招手。 Christina held the back cushion to set out to collect to come to sit down side Eric, curls up the leg to depend gently on Eric, on the document toward his knee looked that said: „Eric, what is this?” 克里斯蒂娜抱着靠枕起身凑了过来在艾瑞克身旁坐下,蜷起腿轻轻靠在艾瑞克身上,朝他膝盖上的文件看去,道:“艾瑞克,这是什么？” Eric knows that the girl is not interested, but wants to look for a topic, said: „Not anything, some copyright transfer contract materials.” 艾瑞克知道女孩并不是真的感兴趣,只是想找个话题,道:“没什么,一些版权转让合约资料。” Christina has swept several toward the document in slightly, is actually tactful has not examined carefully, asks: „Is «The Matrix»?” 克里斯蒂娜朝文件上稍微扫了几眼,却很识趣地没有细看,问道:“是《黑客帝国》吗？” „Yes,” Eric nods, peruses the material on folder to the first page, plans to look again, feels side the Christina small body often by rubbing toward him on two, said with a smile: „Looked at your appearance, should be all right?” “是啊,”艾瑞克点头,将文件夹上的资料重新翻到第一页,打算再看一遍,感受到旁边克里斯蒂娜小身子不时朝他身上挨蹭两下,笑道:“看你刚才的样子,应该没事了吧？” „,” Christina has gawked staring, begs for mercy to say quickly pitiful: „ That, Eric, tonight, but also...... It is not good. “啊,”克里斯蒂娜愣了愣,很快可怜兮兮地求饶道:“那个,艾瑞克,今晚,还……不行呢。 Eric smiles, the vision falls in the front document as before, actually shifted the topic, said: „What in the evening wants to eat?” 艾瑞克笑笑,目光依旧落在面前文件上,却转移了话题,道:“晚上想吃什么？” Christina was worried as before Eric can toss about itself in the evening again, in that case, she thought that she could shatter. Hears Eric to change the topic, replied absent-mindedly: „I do not know that in the morning, um, is good.” 克里斯蒂娜依旧担心着艾瑞克晚上会不会再折腾自己,那样的话,她觉得自己可能就要坏掉了。听到艾瑞克转开话题,心不在焉地回答道:“我也不知道呢,早上的,嗯,就不错。” „That is the breakfast,” Eric said: „consider as finished, you telephone to the room service, making them deliver a menu to come, wants to eat anything to select.” “那是早餐啊,”艾瑞克道:“算了,你打电话给客房服务,让他们送份菜单过来,想吃什么自己挑。” „Un,” Christina nods, thinks that has drawn the short sleeve of Eric T-shirt gently, small appearance that starting to speak but hesitating. “嗯,”克里斯蒂娜点头,想了想,轻轻拉了拉艾瑞克t恤的短袖,一副欲言又止的小模样。 Eric has turned head, sees the Christina pitiful small expression, remembered her words, understood. 艾瑞克扭过头来,见克里斯蒂娜可怜兮兮的小表情,想起她刚才的话,明白过来。 Has saying that present Christina can be said as best time in her life, the cheek is delightful, the stature is petite, the stature is slender, in addition at this time ‚do not bully others are good’ the pitiful small expression, truly very much can provoke the masculine devastation to want prosperously. 不得不说,现在的克里斯蒂娜可以说是她生命中的最好时期,脸蛋甜美,个子娇小,身材纤细,再加上此时一副‘不要欺负人家好不好’的可怜小表情,确实很能挑起男性的蹂躏欲旺。 „Do not think blindly, you rested on the line for these days well,” Eric smiles, puts out a hand to pinch on the girl cheek, said: „If you are not willing to live here, can return to that hotel that faces the street.” “不要瞎想了,你这几天好好休息就行,”艾瑞克笑着,伸手在女孩脸蛋上捏了下,道:“如果你不愿意住这里,也可以回临街的那家酒店。” Hears these words, remembered the Eric overall also to calculate that last night the gentle action, Christina also felt relieved, said with a smile sweetly: „I do not walk, um, I telephone to want the menu.” 听到这番话,又想起昨晚艾瑞克总体还算温柔的举动,克里斯蒂娜也放下心来,甜甜地笑道:“我才不走呢,嗯,我去打电话要菜单。” The girl was saying, jumps down the sofa to put out a hand the mobile phone that took up Eric just to put down, started the digit dialing. 女孩说着,跳下沙发伸手拿起艾瑞克刚刚放下的移动电话,开始拨号。 Eric smiled, the attention will change the document in hand once more. 艾瑞克笑了笑,将注意力再次转向手中的文件。 Because is far away from the Hollywood reason, Eric has not felt recently Hollywood various to scratch with the finger actually personally, especially the «The Matrix» copyright sell wind dials. 因为远离好莱坞的缘故,艾瑞克倒是没有亲自感受最近一段时间好莱坞的各种搔动,特别是《黑客帝国》的版权出售风拨。 Without a doubt, like such that Eric initially guessed, most wants «The Matrix» copyright, secure Berlin Film Industry that Microsoft supports in the back, naturally, several other big Film Studio also more or less participated in this copyright competition. 毫无疑问,就像艾瑞克当初猜测的那样,最想要《黑客帝国》版权的,还是微软在背后撑腰的安柏林影业,当然,其他几大电影公司也或多或少地参与到了这次版权竞争当中。 The Firefly naturally not simple and crude sells out «The Matrix» copyright carelessly, even, a large part of high levels do not want sell out «The Matrix», but hits to tow this matter, finally slowly Huang Diao thoughts, therefore, the manner in Firefly aspect is also quite firm, when intends to purchase the Film Studio negotiations of «The Matrix» copyright does not yield an inch. 萤火虫当然也不会简单粗暴地将《黑客帝国》版权草草卖掉,甚至,很大一部分高层根本就不想将《黑客帝国》卖掉,只是打着将这件事拖下去,最后慢慢黄掉的心思,因此,萤火虫方面的态度也相当坚决,在与有意购买《黑客帝国》版权的电影公司谈判的时候寸步不让。 In this case, manages style relatively conservative Paramount and other companies one after another to withdraw, finally only remaining Warner, Universal and secure Berlin was still insisting. 这种情况下,经营风格相对保守的派拉蒙等公司都陆续退出,最终只剩下华纳、环球和安柏林还在坚持。 However, condition that because Firefly pledges is quite harsh, is only willing to sell the manufacture and distribution rights of «The Matrix» sequel, but retains «The Matrix» all non- film and television as before peripheral such as cartoon, game, toy and other development authorities, in addition asks a price too high, Warner and Universal also successively withdraw, finally only remaining secure Berlin, accepted the request of Firefly. 不过,因为萤火虫开出的条件比较苛刻,只愿意出售《黑客帝国》续集的制作和发行权,但依旧保留《黑客帝国》所有非影视周边诸如漫画、游戏、玩具等开发权力,再加上要价过高,华纳和环球也先后退出,最终只剩下安柏林一家,答应了萤火虫的要求。 According to agreement that decides initially, will settle Berlin Film Industry to buy the «The Matrix» following film and television manufacture by the 300 million USD cash distributes copyright, the agreement does not have the gauge Dingan Berlin only to manufacture two sequels, even, peaceful Berlin Film Industry will want to restart the series in the future, Firefly will not oppose. Naturally, the movie fans who the majority pays attention to the «The Matrix» series know that this series trilogy script, thinks after this wind dials, settles Berlin not to be impossible top the pressure to revise script. 根据初步商定的协议,安柏林影业将以三亿美元现金买下《黑客帝国》后续的影视制作发行版权,协议并没有规定安柏林只能制作两部续集,甚至,将来安柏林影业想要重启系列,萤火虫也不会反对。当然,大部分关注《黑客帝国》系列的影迷都知道这个系列的三部曲剧本,想必在这次风拨之后,安柏林也不可能顶着压力修改剧本。 However, the agreement also stipulated that Firefly retains the «The Matrix» series cartoons, games, toy and other peripheral copyright development authorities, includes the «The Matrix» sequel related role the peripheral right of exploitation. Firefly will not participate in «The Matrix» sequel series the video product any theater, DVD and recording tape and other release incomes is divided, but, settles Berlin Film Industry also to have no right to participate in the «The Matrix» series the peripheral incomes is divided. 不过,协议同时规定,萤火虫保留《黑客帝国》系列漫画、游戏、玩具等周边版权的开发权力,其中也包括《黑客帝国》续集相关角色的周边开发权。萤火虫不会参与《黑客帝国》续集系列影视产品的任何影院、dvd、录像带等发行收益分成,但同时,安柏林影业也无权参与《黑客帝国》系列的周边收益分成。 Although Berlin Film Industry is ambitious, but newly established eventually, at present the opposite party most important work is the perfect distribution network, has not involved the ability of peripheral development, therefore the opposite party will agree that this plan, but the peripheral product development, actually exactly is Firefly Group most excels. 安柏林影业虽然野心勃勃,但终究才刚刚成立,眼下对方最重要的工作是完善本身的发行网络,还没有涉及到周边开发的能力,因此对方才会同意这份方案,而周边产品开发,却恰恰是萤火虫集团最擅长的。 By the «The Matrix» first tune global Box Office about 600 million data, Firefly merely in cinema and net-income in recording tape release on incessantly 300 million USD., But, even if the «The Matrix» sequel has not moved toward the previous life old route, this business Firefly does not owe, because of the overall recovery of United States economy, several years recovers the 300 million USD cash ahead of time, regardless of this sum of money invests into the entertainment industry high-tech industry, Eric will have enough confidence to make this sum of money rise several in the next few years. 以《黑客帝国》首部曲累计全球票房600000000左右的数据来看,萤火虫仅仅在影院放映和录像带发行方面的纯收益就不止3亿美元。,不过,即使《黑客帝国》续集没有走向前世的老路,这笔生意萤火虫也不亏,因为美国经济的整体复苏,提前几年收回3亿美元的现金,无论这笔钱是投入到娱乐产业还是高科技产业,艾瑞克都有足够的信心在未来几年让这笔钱翻上几番。 Although in bystander opinion, the Firefly profit recent is terrorist, but also only then Eric are clear, the Firefly system the time of crazy fever money, every year majority of profits quickly turned into the investment for these years, pours into to various Firefly system companies. 虽然在外人看来,萤火虫最近几年的盈利都非常恐怖,但也只有艾瑞克自己清楚,萤火虫体系这几年正是疯狂烧钱的时刻,每年的大部分盈利都很快重新变成投资,注入到萤火虫体系旗下各家公司当中。 To reduce the tax burden as far as possible, Eric even started to consider to invest the company to invest to Firefly in the name of Firefly Group directly, although like this will cause the Internet industry of Firefly that about 27% medium young shareholder join Firefly systems indirectly, can actually omit many tax affairs of intermediate link. 为了尽可能地减少税务负担,艾瑞克甚至已经开始考虑直接以萤火虫集团的名义对萤火虫投资旗下的公司进行投资,这样虽然会间接导致萤火虫那27%左右的中小股东入局萤火虫体系的互联网产业,却可以省去中间环节的很多税务。 When the surplus fund switches through makes the investment the words, the Firefly Group before-tax gross margin will reduce drastically, but this can also make Firefly reduce the enterprise income tax the premium received, at the Firefly scale, the before-tax profit income tax proportion achieves 35%, this may want tall Duo compared with 27% medium young shareholder proportions . Moreover, apportions the young shareholder the benefit by the situation of investment, can definitely obtain the bigger favorable impressions of these shareholders, increases controlling force of Eric to Firefly, as well as behind these shareholders represents the support of influence to Firefly. But if gives Internal Revenue Service, Firefly cannot obtain any substantive advantage. 当盈余资金直接转作项目投资的话,萤火虫集团的税前毛利润会大幅降低,但这也可以让萤火虫减少企业所得税的缴纳金额,以萤火虫的规模,税前利润所得税比例达到35%,这可比27%的中小股东比例要高多了,而且,以投资的形势将利益分给中小股东,肯定能够获得这些股东的更大好感,增加艾瑞克对萤火虫的控制力,以及这些股东背后所代表势力对萤火虫的支持。但如果交给国税局,萤火虫却得不到任何实质性好处的。 Is thinking these, Eric also decides at heart, next time will talk over the telephone and Katzenberg discussed that was Disney group the matter of clover holding company, this is an investment company that the Disney time leaves behind, but the scale has been very small, if carefully did not read the Firefly Group balance sheet, most people will not even note existence of this investment company. 想着这些,艾瑞克心里也打定主意,下次通话与卡森伯格讨论一下原本属于迪斯尼集团旗下的三叶草控股公司的事情,这是迪斯尼时期遗留下来的一家投资公司,只不过规模一直很小,如果不是仔细阅读萤火虫集团的资产负债表,大部分人甚至都不会注意到这家投资公司的存在。 Although initial Disney developed rapidly, but did not have many energy related to the foreign investment, clover holding company outward maximum investment plan, only then assisted to construct the Disney music hall of Los Angeles musical center, the investment scale was 20 million USD. But that project still does not have what profit, because the project initially Disney Family initiated, initially main purpose to expand the Disney Family influence, the public welfare nature is very big. 当初的迪斯尼虽然发展迅速,但还没有多少精力涉及外部投资,三叶草控股公司对外最大的投资项目,就只有协助建造洛杉矶音乐中心的迪斯尼音乐厅,投资规模为2000万美元。但那个项目至今也没有什么盈利,因为项目是当初迪斯尼家族发起的,当初主要目的还是为了扩大迪斯尼家族的影响力,公益性质很大。 However at this time, this investment company can actually be the Firefly Group direct foreign investment the window, the United States law of corporation is loose, had not stipulated that a company can only manage certain industries, like Buffett control Berkshire Hathaway, initially was only a textile mill, now actually turned into a comprehensive holdings group, managed the domain related to insurances, books, drink, candy, entertainment and other trades and occupations. 不过此时,这家投资公司却可以作为萤火虫集团直接对外投资的窗口,美国的公司法非常宽松,并没有规定一家公司只能经营某些产业,就像巴菲特控制的伯克希尔・哈撒韦,当初只是一家纺织厂,现在却已经变成一家综合性的控股集团,经营领域涉及保险、图书、饮料、糖果、娱乐等各行各业。
