Eric also some looked for a plan of Manager person, but this is not an easy matter. Although he has not attained share of any movie, but anybody cannot deny that his present sale price has surpassed 100 million USD. 艾瑞克本来也有找一个经理人的打算,可这并不是一件容易的事情。他虽然还没有拿到任何一部电影的分成,但任何人都不能否认,他现在的身价已经超过了一亿美元。 But also only then Eric know, «Jurassic Park» copyright and Pixar in work room hand as well as he will continue to take later generation in the future in a planned way ‚gold ore’, these things will make his property break through the 10 billion USD rank in the future with ease. 而也只有艾瑞克自己知道,手中的《侏罗纪公园》版权、皮克斯工作室以及将来他会有计划地继续拿下后世的一座座‘金矿’,这些东西将来会让他的资产轻松突破百亿美元级别。 In this case, he impossible to give a bystander to handle the property in hand. Work ethics type of thing, but without enough was tempted | being puzzled, some people will persevere. 这种情况下,他不可能将手中的资产交给一个外人打理。职业道德这种东西,只是在没有受到足够的诱丨惑情况下,才会有人坚守。 Hollywood Star is been rare by the matter that own financial Manager person cheats, previous life Nicolas Cage bankruptcy, the disposition that although likes spending freely with Cage personally cannot cut off the relations, but must say that his financial Manager person ‚output’, this matter easily has not occurred. 好莱坞明星被自己的财务经理人蒙骗的事情并不少见,前世尼古拉斯凯奇破产事件,虽然跟凯奇个人喜欢挥霍的性格脱不了关系,但要说没有他那个财务经理人从中‘出力’,这种事情并不容易发生。 The financial situation of employer is more chaotic, more easily fishes in troubled waters. But the account is well-organized, the property rose in value is also an employer, the financial Manager person instead can only attain to belong to the duty-bound reward. 雇主的财务状况越混乱,越容易从中浑水摸鱼。而账目条理清晰,资产增值了也都是雇主的,财务经理人反而只能拿到属于自己分内的酬劳。 Rides the Edward available vehicle to return to Los Angeles, Eric to go to the Hilton Hotel parking lot to bring back own car, drives to arrive at Firefly Headquarters directly. 搭爱德华的便车回到洛杉矶,艾瑞克去希尔顿酒店停车场取回自己的汽车,开车直接来到萤火虫总部。 Jeffrey left Los Angeles that time in Eric, already 《Scent of a Woman》 reorganized Quan Na, Eric has not written 《Scent of a Woman》 script with enough time. Jeffrey also proposed another issue, is the Firefly financial situation. 杰弗里在艾瑞克离开洛杉矶的那段时间,已经将《女人香》的改编权拿了下来,艾瑞克还没来得及写出《闻香识女人》的剧本。杰弗里也提出了另外一个问题,就是萤火虫的财务状况。 shoots 《Pretty Woman》 has squandered the fund of Eric investment company, but must attain the movie to be divided, after must wait till under the movie as usual the files. Although relates with Fox very well, but Eric can affirm, because if he this matter goes to discuss the friendship with Barry Diller, the opposite party definitely will discuss the business with him. 拍摄《风月》已经将艾瑞克投入公司的资金花光了,而要拿到电影分成,照例还是要等到电影下档之后。虽然与福克斯关系很好,但艾瑞克可以肯定,他要是因为这件事去跟巴里迪勒谈交情,对方肯定会跟他谈生意。 But Eric takes the «Home Alone» contract as the 50 million USD loan that the mortgage attains, purchased Pixar to spend 20 million, left behind 10 million to take the «Toy Story» preliminary fund, now only remaining two surely USD. 而艾瑞克以《小鬼当家》合约为抵押拿到的五千万美元贷款,购买皮克斯花了20000000,又留下了10000000作为《玩具总动员》的前期资金,现在只剩下两千万美元。 This sum of money links the investment of his next movie to be insufficient, do not say that Eric also has the plans of several other movies. 这笔钱连他下一部电影的投资都不够,更不要说艾瑞克还有其他几部电影的计划。 Eric signs the 20 million USD check to give corporate finance Manager, then said to Jeffrey: „This, arranges 《Scent of a Woman》 first, I caught up with for these days script.” 艾瑞克签下2000万美元的支票交给公司财务经理,然后对杰弗里道:“这样,先筹备《闻香识女人》吧,我这几天把剧本赶出来。” „Your movie what to do?” “那你的电影怎么办？” Eric shrugs: „Only can continue to loan.” 艾瑞克耸耸肩:“只能继续贷款了。” Borrowed in any case one time, this matter, even if just started to resist, taking advantage of taking advantage was used. He will not make other Film Studio meddle his movie project in any case temporarily. 反正已经借了一次,这种事情,即使刚开始抗拒,借着借着就习惯了。反正他暂时是不会让其他电影公司插手自己的电影项目的。 „Was right, Jeffrey, this is I... script that accidentally sees, Director is Herbert Ross, is in chooses the corner/horn stage. I heard that the budget of this movie is not very loose, you contact with him, looks to win this project, Firefly is willing jointly to invest, meanwhile can convince Julia Roberts to ally this movie.” “对了,杰弗里,这是我…偶然见到的一个剧本,导演是赫伯特罗斯,目前还正处于选角阶段。我听说这部电影的预算不是很宽松,你联系一下他,看能不能拿下这个项目,萤火虫愿意联合投资,同时还可以说服茱莉亚罗伯茨加盟这部电影。” Jeffrey looks at minute of scene script that Eric has handed over, read several, has not seen anything specially. Had not proposed that any opposing opinion, to the present, he has no longer suspected vision of Eric at movie. Just like Eric said that he is more suitable to make producer role, movie content gives Eric to come the plenary powers decision. 杰弗里看了一下艾瑞克递过来的分镜头剧本,读了几段,没看出什么特别的。却也没提出什么反对意见,到现在,他已经不再怀疑艾瑞克在电影上的眼光了。正如艾瑞克说的,他更适合做制片人这个角色,电影内容方面还是交给艾瑞克来全权决定。 „Does not have the issue, I will relate Herbert Ross as soon as possible.” “没问题,我会尽快联系赫伯特罗斯的。” In the morning handles the matter that needs him to inquire about personally, Eric is planning to go home, Jeffrey knocked on a door to enter his office: „Eric, but also remembers Amy Pascal?” 上午处理完需要他亲手过问的事情,艾瑞克正打算回家,杰弗里敲门走进了他的办公室:“艾瑞克,还记得艾米帕斯卡尔吗？” „Naturally, is not her words, «Home Alone» is impossible that smooth screening. Then, I have not been able to express gratitude to Amy face to face.” “当然,不是她的话,《小鬼当家》也不可能那么顺利的上映。说起来,我还一直没能当面向艾米道谢呢。” „She telephoned,” Jeffrey was saying, pulled up Eric: „Has not hung, looks your.” “她打电话过来了,”杰弗里说着,拉起艾瑞克:“还没挂,找你的。” Eric sets out hastily, follows Jeffrey to come to his office. 艾瑞克连忙起身,跟随杰弗里来到他的办公室。 „Amy?... For a long time does not see, has wanted you to tell that the sound thanks, what a pity previous time you suddenly resigned... Naturally, does not have the issue... Then, a while sees.” “艾米？…好久不见,一直想跟你说声谢谢来着,可惜上次你突然辞职了…当然,没问题…那么,一会儿见。” Hung the power failure words, Eric and Jeffrey has looked at each other one. 挂掉电话,艾瑞克与杰弗里对视了一眼。 Jeffrey knows that said: „Amy returned to Columbia, temporarily held the post of Vice Chairman, Blunt Cohen left job, heard retires early, went to France.” 杰弗里率先将自己知道的说了出来:“艾米返回哥伦比亚了,暂时担任副总裁,布朗特科恩已经离职,听说是提前退休,去了法国。” „Did she just tell you?” “她刚刚告诉你的？” Jeffrey nodded: „Before I chatted several with her first, what matter does Amy look for your?” 杰弗里点了点头:“之前我跟她先聊了几句,艾米找你什么事情？” „Said that is asks me to eat meal,” “说是请我吃饭,” Two people chatted several, has not managed any clue, Eric looks at the watch saying: „I first keep an appointment, Jeffrey, 《Scent of a Woman》 also had the 《Steel Magnolias》 matter to give you completely, following several days I caught up with script at home, did not come to the company, had the matter to call me.” 两个人聊了几句,没有理出什么头绪,艾瑞克看了看手表道:“那我就先去赴约,杰弗里,《闻香识女人》还有《钢木兰花》的事情全部交给你了,接下来几天我在家里赶剧本,就不来公司了,有事打电话给我。” „Does not have the issue,” Jeffrey has complied with one, they went out of the office shoulder to shoulder. “没问题,”杰弗里应了一句,两人并肩走出了办公室。 ... … Arrives at the agreement dining room, Eric discovered that Amy Pascal waited there.
