The private car left Firefly Group Headquarters to be very far, Bill Chanique had not recovered to the shock that in he brought from just Katzenberg that words. 座驾离开了萤火虫集团总部很远,比尔・米查尼克都还没有从刚刚卡森伯格那番话给他带来的震惊中回过神来。 In recent years, Firefly Group not only has annexed new line Film Industry and Disney Group and ABC group continuously, becomes the Hollywood first big media giant, in secret is controlling also Metro Goldwyn Mayer Film Industry, and relates complicate with 20th Century Fox. 这些年来,萤火虫集团不但连续吞并了新线影业、迪士尼集团和ABC集团,成为好莱坞第一大传媒巨头,同时也暗中控制着米高梅影业,并与二十世纪福克斯关系盘根错节。 Bill Chanique thought that even if Metro Goldwyn Mayer that the Hollywood golden age prevails for a time, probably also mediocre. 比尔・米查尼克觉得,哪怕是好莱坞黄金时代盛极一时的米高梅,大概也不过如此。 If Firefly wants to bring back Columbia Film Studio, expels Hollywood Japanese thoroughly, Bill Chanique extremely will not be but actually surprised. 如果萤火虫只是想要拿回哥伦比亚电影公司,将日本人彻底赶出好莱坞,比尔・米查尼克倒还不会太过惊讶。 In his opinion, by Sony Film Industry present state of operation, if not have presented any fundamental transformation in the next few years, Sony withdraws from the film and television industry is almost the inevitable matter. When the time comes, by the Firefly Group strength, if this company gets rid, the Hollywood inside and outside can be few with the match who it competes. 在他看来,以索尼影业现在的经营状况,如果未来几年没有出现什么根本性的转变,索尼退出影视产业几乎是必然的事情。到时候,以萤火虫集团的实力,如果这家公司出手,好莱坞内外能够与之竞争的对手寥寥无几。 However, from Katzenberg expressed that Firefly plans to suppress a Hollywood superstar salary in the words, Bill Chanique actually understood another matter: Decision maker who Firefly Group wants into the Hollywood rule. 不过,从卡森伯格表示萤火虫打算压制好莱坞一线巨星片酬的言辞里,比尔・米查尼克却明白了另外一件事:萤火虫集团想要成为好莱坞规则的制定者。 However, wants to formulate the rule, even if grasps Hollywood 50% big Film Studio, is still insufficient. Such energy tied the half fishing net in a river likely, the fish in river can actually with ease from other one side tour in the past. 但是,想要制定规则,哪怕掌握住好莱坞一半的大电影公司,依然是不够的。这样只能像是在一条河里结了半边渔网,河里的鱼却能够轻松地从另外一边游过去。 To formulate the rule, Firefly must grasp entire Hollywood in the hand. 想要制定规则,萤火虫就必须将整个好莱坞抓在手中。 To realize this goal, after Sony, Firefly definitely also will get rid to Hollywood another three. 想要实现这一目的,索尼之后,萤火虫肯定还会向好莱坞另外三家出手。 In Bill Chanique looks like, these, only then brings back Columbia Film Studio appears realistic, other three big Film Studio, Universal, Paramount, is Warner, became the member of large-scale media group, these will experience the media group that the dangers and difficulties finally have conformed with basically not to sell the Film Industry service in hand. 在比尔・米查尼克看来,这其中,也只有拿回哥伦比亚电影公司显得现实一些,另外的三家大电影公司,无论是环球,派拉蒙,还是华纳,都已经成为大型传媒集团的一份子,这些经历了艰难险阻才最终整合起来的传媒集团基本上不会出售手中的电影业务。 In other words, Firefly wants to take final these three Film Studio, only method, probably only then swallows their parent company together. 也就是说,萤火虫想要拿下最后的这三家电影公司,唯一的方法,大概就只有将它们的母公司一起吞下。 Bill Chanique understands Katzenberg very much, he did not think that Katzenberg will have such impractical ambition, after all, in his opinion, even if this goal can achieve, that estimate was also two 30 years later matters. 比尔・米查尼克很了解卡森伯格,他不觉得卡森伯格会产生这么不切实际的野心,毕竟,在他看来,即使这种目标能够达成,那估计也是二三十年以后的事情了。 The 30 year, can Hollywood, whose ambition be able to continue the 30 year? 三十年啊,好莱坞,能有谁的野心能够持续三十年？ Even if Redstone or Murdoch these old and strong media tycoons, Viacom and News Corp develop the present degree, has reached a limit, even if these two can live again the 30 year, and firmly grasps Viacom and News Corp in the hand, but they do not have enough energy to go the industry in hand to continue actually to grow strong. 哪怕是雷石东或者默多克这些老而弥坚的传媒大亨,维亚康姆和新闻集团发展到现在的程度,也已经达到了一个极限,这两人即使能够再活三十年,并且牢牢地把维亚康姆和新闻集团掌握在手中,但他们其实也没有足够的精力去将手中的产业继续发展壮大。 However, thinks of here, Bill in Chanique mind actually quickly appears the form of Firefly Group secretly that young people. 不过,想到这里,比尔・米查尼克脑海中却很快浮现出萤火虫集团幕后那个年轻人的身影。 Therefore, in hundred taste mixed Chen, were suddenly many for several points to suddenly see the light. 于是,百味杂陈中,突然又多了几分豁然开朗。 Eric Williams is only 27 years old, Firefly Group actually has developed this year also the present scale. 艾瑞克・威廉姆斯今年也才27岁,萤火虫集团却已经发展到了现在的规模。 Then , to continue, so long as insisted that this ambition, Firefly controls entire Hollywood, perhaps is also not a completely impossible matter. 那么,继续下去,只要坚持住这份野心,萤火虫掌控整个好莱坞,或许也并不是一件完全不可能的事情。 The vehicle unknowingly arrived at Columbia Film Studio Headquarters of Culver city. 车子不知不觉已经来到卡尔弗城的哥伦比亚电影公司总部。 Hears assistant's neutral tone reminder, Bill Chanique recovers from the ponder finally. 听到助理的轻声提醒,比尔・米查尼克终于从沉思中回过神来。 Remembers still in waiting for him and Katzenberg negotiation result Howard Stringer, Bill Chanique has considered a while, when the decision does not meet with Katzenberg that words of opposite party told Howard Stringer. 想起还在等待他和卡森伯格谈判结果的霍华德・斯特林格,比尔・米查尼克考虑了一会儿,还是决定不把与卡森伯格碰面时对方的那番话告诉霍华德・斯特林格。 Howard Stringer wholeheartedly is thinking becomes first non- Japanese CEO of Sony group, but he must keep Hollywood for a long time. Bill Chanique is even thinking, perhaps, later should many contact with the colleague of Disney time, then, even if when the time comes Firefly Group brings back Columbia Film Studio, he has very big probability to strive to continue as before to hold the post of Columbia Film Studio CEO , to continue fingers and palm company. 霍华德・斯特林格一心想着成为索尼集团的第一位非日裔CEO,但他自己还是要长久地留在好莱坞的。比尔・米查尼克甚至想着,或许,以后应该多与迪斯尼时期的同事接触一下,那么,就算到时候萤火虫集团拿回哥伦比亚电影公司,他依旧有很大几率争取继续担任哥伦比亚电影公司的CEO,继续指掌这家公司。 This year's Christmas day is on Thursday, was affected by the Christmas Eve except for Wednesday, «Rush Hour 2» odd-numbered days Box Office fell beside 659 ten thousand USD, «Rush Hour 2» odd-numbered days Box Office of another three working days in 9 million USD above, Christmas day same day «Rush Hour 2» one-day Box Office even rebounded 107 50,000 USD. 今年的圣诞节是周四,除了周三受到平安夜的影响,《尖峰时刻2》单日票房跌到了659万美元之外,另外三个工作日的《尖峰时刻2》单日票房都在900万美元以上,圣诞节当天《尖峰时刻2》的单日票房甚至反弹到了1075万美元。 Finally, «Rush Hour 2» first week Box Office achieves 100 million 352 ten thousand USD, became at the end of 1997 running schedule only character radical week Box Office broken hundred million dark horses. 最终,《尖峰时刻2》的首周票房达到1亿352万美元,成为1997年年底档期唯一一部首周票房破亿的黑马。 Follows closely «Rush Hour 2» later «Galaxy Corps», first week Box Office only halts in 291 50,000 USD, one-day Box Office of first week last working day falls 1 million ranks. 紧随《尖峰时刻2》之后的《星河战队》,首周票房仅止步于2915万美元,首周最后一个工作日的单日票房更是滑落到了1000000级别。 «Rush Hour 2» first weeks broken hundred million, North America total Box Office breaks through 200 million is almost the matter of being settled, following «Jurassic Park 3» come under the «Rush Hour 2» influence is also inevitable. 《尖峰时刻2》首周破亿,北美总票房突破2亿几乎是板上钉钉的事情,接下来的《侏罗纪公园3》受到《尖峰时刻2》影响也不可避免。 Since unavoidable, Eric also with single-hearted devotion enjoys the Christmas day warmth, transmits two actors to hope that as for Los Angeles can in the contract in the foundation of third sequel 20 million USD salary increase the request that part of Box Office are divided into again, Eric has not cared. 既然无法避免,艾瑞克也就专心享受圣诞节的温馨,至于洛杉矶传来两位男主角希望能够在合约中第三部续集2000万美元片酬的基础上再增加一部分票房分成的要求,艾瑞克也没有放在心上。 Christmas day, «Jurassic Park 3» landed various North America yard lines on December 26 on time. 圣诞节过后,《侏罗纪公园3》在12月26日准时登陆北美各大院线。 Since the Christmas day, Eric gradually had also changed to the thoughts the work. 既然过了圣诞节,艾瑞克也就逐渐将心思转到工作上。 On Saturday in the morning, because made Yahoo several high levels to hold a time not too official conference call, discussed that the Yahoo next year development project, Eric early took a seat the study room, waited for that side while convenient Los Angeles sent in the first date Box Office reports of «Jurassic Park 3». 周六上午,因为约了雅虎的几位高层召开一次不算太正式的视频会议,讨论雅虎明年的发展规划,艾瑞克早早地就坐进了书房,顺便等待洛杉矶那边发来《侏罗纪公园3》的首日票房报告。 This year a all year, as a result of the thorough eruption of Internet science and technology tide, the massive emerging Internet enterprises in does not count the cost to intensify the effort of network advertisement promotion. 今年一整年,由于互联网科技浪潮的彻底爆发,大量新兴的互联网企业都在不计成本地加大网络广告推广的力度。 Therefore, as occupying the web portal giants in North America over 70% markets, the Yahoo this year's achievement dramatically increased again. 因此,作为占据了北美70%以上市场的门户网站巨头,雅虎今年的业绩再次大幅增加。 Compared with last year whole year's 1.9 400 million USD earnings, although the final quarter performance data is still counting, but was only in the first three quarters, the Yahoo year earning has been 4. 3.5 billion USD, earning likely close 600 million USD of whole year. 与去年全年的1.94亿美元营收相比,虽然最后一个季度的业绩数据还在统计,但只是前三个季度,雅虎的年营收就已经达到4.35亿美元,全年的营收很可能接近6亿美元。 However, accordingly, in North America and even the overseas Internet user in the situation that continues eruption to grow, the Yahoo operation cost also straight line elevates. Entire 1995, the Firefly investment has infused the 500 million USD fund to Yahoo from all sides. 不过,相应的,在北美乃至海外互联网用户继续爆发式增长的情况下,雅虎的运营成本也直线升高。整个1995年度,萤火虫投资前前后后向雅虎注入了5亿美元资金。 The initial statistics, will compare last year, the Yahoo this year's loss quota will also rise to 300 million USD above. 初步统计,相比去年,雅虎今年的亏损额度也将上升到3亿美元以上。 Because is not the too official conference, the video other one side, Yahoo several management also gather at Yahoo CEO Ian in the living room of Gonul Family. 因为并不是太正式的会议,视频另外一边,雅虎的几位高管也都聚集在雅虎CEO伊恩・格尼尔家的客厅里。 „According to the statistics of November, global Internet users broke through the 100 million people, the North America Internet user has accounted for 70%, achieves 70 million. Next year, is only the North America Internet user quantity will break merely through 100 million. To maintain Yahoo in the high-speed expansion in North America as well as overseas, the company will at least need 1 billion USD fund next year, Eric, I recently more than once received to probe Yahoo whether must carry on financing outward the telephone, this time 1 billion USD, you also planned that is invested the capitalization to pour into by Firefly?” “根据11月份的统计数据,全球互联网用户人数已经突破了1亿人次,其中北美互联网用户就占了七成,达到7000万。明年,仅仅只是北美的互联网用户数量就将突破一亿。想要维持雅虎在北美以及海外的高速扩张,公司明年至少需要10亿美元资金,艾瑞克,我这些日子可是已经不止一次接到试探雅虎是否要对外进行融资的电话了,这次的10亿美元,你还打算由萤火虫投资全资注入吗？” Initially according to the agreement, Yahoo has carried on stockholder's rights to distribute. 当初按照约定,雅虎已经进行了一次股权分派。 However, through last year 500 million USD capital, the ownership percentage of Firefly investment to Yahoo also once more elevated 85%. At present about 15 billion USD estimate values according to Yahoo, if this billion USD fund will be infused by the Firefly investment next year completely, the ownership percentage of Firefly investment to Yahoo once more will also rise to over 90%. 不过,通过去年的5亿美元注资,萤火虫投资对雅虎的持股比例也再次升高到了85%。按照雅虎目前150亿美元左右的估值,如果明年这10亿美元资金全部由萤火虫投资注入的话,萤火虫投资对雅虎的持股比例也会再次上升到90%以上。 „I had said before, before Yahoo goes on the market, we will not introduce the foreign investment, therefore, this is natural,” Eric nods, said: „The matter about money, you and Chris discussed and that's the end, this year Nokia, Cisco, LTD and other subsidiary companies will invest to bring the good profit to draw bonus to Firefly, support the expansion of Yahoo not to have the issue, we discussed the Yahoo following development project.” “我以前就说过啊,在雅虎上市之前,我们是不会引入外部投资的,所以,这是当然,”艾瑞克点点头,道:“关于钱的事情,你们和克里斯讨论就是了,今年诺基亚、思科、LTD等子公司都会给萤火虫投资带来不错的利润分红,支持雅虎的扩张还是没问题的,我们还是讨论一下雅虎接下来的发展规划吧。” Eric is just about to continue to speak, the gate of study room was actually shoved open. 艾瑞克正要继续说话,书房的门却被推开。 Eric has not seen the person, straight body, this noted the daughter to run. 艾瑞克一眼没有看到人,直了直身体,这才注意到女儿已经跑了进来。 „Papa, Papa, this was Mama just roasted the good biscuit, you taste,” kid ran up to side Eric, a face has handed over the half biscuit in hand purely. “爸爸,爸爸,这是妈妈刚刚烤好的饼干呢,你尝尝,”小家伙跑到艾瑞克身边,一脸纯真地将手里的半块饼干递了过来。 Eric looks that treasure daughter ships out me intentionally is the expression that the child my anything does not understand, smiled, favors to drown to hug the daughter, places on oneself leg. 艾瑞克看着宝贝女儿故意装出一副我是小孩子呢我什么也不懂的表情,笑了笑,还是宠溺地将女儿抱起来,放在自己腿上。 The Hawaii goal achieves, fills own father mouth that half biscuit conveniently, an attractive big eye actually curiously changed the computer screen, sees in the screen is several faces, somewhat is immediately disappointed. 夏威夷目的达成,随手将那半块饼干塞到自家老爸嘴里,一双漂亮的大眼睛却已经好奇地转向电脑屏幕,见屏幕里是几张人脸,顿时有些失望。 Eric takes to place side the card in the half biscuit of mouth, felt that daughter this must run away, grasps gently, said: „Xiaxia, must have polite Oh, but also remembers everybody, greeted.” 艾瑞克将卡在嘴里的半块饼干拿下来放在旁边,感觉女儿这就要跑掉,轻轻抱住,道:“夏夏,要有礼貌哦,还记得大家吗,打个招呼。” Another side Ian Gonul, Steve Mitnick and Tina Brown have a relish looks at just situation, they had seen Hawaii at the Chris wedding, although does not have too to contact, pours is not strange, but afterward from Jeff Beizuosi there heard that Eric the little girl is intelligent. 另一边的伊恩・格尼尔、史蒂夫・米特尼克和蒂娜・布朗都饶有兴致地看着刚刚的情形,他们在克里斯的婚礼上就已经见过夏威夷,虽然没有太多接触,倒也不陌生,只是后来才从杰夫・贝佐斯那里听说艾瑞克的这个小女孩非常聪明。 By the screen looks that the present little girl every action and every movement are passing an inexplicable intelligence, Steve Mitnick cannot bear, said: „Hey, Xiaxia, heard that your very intelligent Oh, Nà, does give you to set the mathematics problems to be good?” 透过屏幕看着眼前的小女孩一举一动都透着一股莫名的灵性,史蒂夫・米特尼克就忍不住,道:“嘿,夏夏,听说你很聪明哦,呐,给你出个数学题好不好？” Hawaii looks to push several people in computer screen, crooked under small head, said: „I have responded, can you get out of the way from the screen?” 夏威夷看着挤在电脑屏幕里的几个人,歪了下小脑袋,道:“我答对了,你们可以从屏幕里走开吗？” Everybody has smiled, Steve Mitnick asked: „We got out of the way, what do you plan to make?” 大家都笑了起来,史蒂夫・米特尼克问道:“我们走开了,你打算做什么？” Hawaii said: „I must search to look for the thing with Yahoo.” 夏威夷道:“我要用雅虎搜索找东西。” „Xiaxia, you will search with Yahoo, but you know that Yahoo searches the thing why can find you to be interested. This type of search engine is I personally Oh that is responsible for creating, if you have responded my issue, I told you.” “夏夏,你会用雅虎搜索,但你知道雅虎搜索为什么能找到你感兴趣的东西吗。这种搜索引擎可是我亲自负责创造的哦,如果你答对了我的问题,我就告诉你。” The young miss attractive pupil has shone immediately, nods gently. 小姑娘漂亮的眸子顿时亮了起来,轻轻点点头。 Eric saw that Joanna stretches the body forward in the entrance, wants to take away the daughter, shook the head to hint does not use, then to Steve Mitnick said: „Steve, I thought that you are best a comparison difficulty the issue.” 艾瑞克看到乔安娜在门口探身进来,想要把女儿带走,摇了摇头示意不用,然后才对史蒂夫・米特尼克道:“史蒂夫,我觉得你最好出一个比较难点的问题。” „Real,” Steve Mitnick looked at Eric, he is a talent, sees the Eric confirmation nod, said: „Good, takes I had presented in childhood mathematics problems to try, Xiaxia, is this, from 1 adds to 100, you give a try can figure out the result to come.” “真的啊,”史蒂夫・米特尼克看了眼艾瑞克,他本来就是个天才,见艾瑞克确认地点头,就说道:“那好吧,就拿我小时候做过的一道数学题来试试吧,夏夏,是这样的,从1加到100,你试试看能不能算出结果来。” Steve the Mitnick words just exported, sit in his nearby Tina Brown protested: „Steve, your this is intentionally making things hard for somebody simply Xiaxia, she also less than five years old.” 史蒂夫・米特尼克话刚刚出口,坐在他旁边的蒂娜・布朗就抗议道:“史蒂夫,你这简直就是在故意刁难夏夏,她还不到五岁呢。” Steve Mitnick lets go to argue: „But, I five -year-old time has made this problem.” 史蒂夫・米特尼克摊手辩解道:“但是,我五岁的时候就做出了这道题啊。” Was saying, Steve Mitnick was planning that to a Hawaii prompt, the little girl attractive pupil of winked several, blurted out: „5050.” 这么说着,史蒂夫・米特尼克正打算给夏威夷一点提示,小女孩漂亮的眸子眨了几下,却已经脱口而出道:“5050。” All people stare, Steve Mitnick first looks to Eric, said: „Won't you have taught this problem?” 所有人都是一愣,史蒂夫・米特尼克首先看向艾瑞克,道:“你不会教过她这道题吧？” Eric shrugs, although he also thinks somewhat inconceivable, but with a smile said: „No, I estimated that her Mama will not teach her such bored mathematics problems.” 艾瑞克耸耸肩,虽然他自己也觉得有些不可思议,但还是笑着说道:“没有啊,我估计她妈妈也不会教她这么无聊的数学题。” „Hey, this is not bored,” Steve Mitnick could not bear refute one, then looked to Hawaii, in expression were many feeling of several points of candy cane uncle: „Xiaxia, how do you calculate?” “嘿,这可一点都不无聊,”史蒂夫・米特尼克忍不住反驳了一句,转而看向夏威夷,语气里多了几分棒棒糖大叔的感觉:“夏夏,你是怎么算出来的？” The young misses extended the careful index finger to delimit in air, said: „Is, from 1 adds to 100, how you should tell me the Yahoo search to work.” 小姑娘伸出细细的食指在空气中划了一下,道:“就是,从1加到100啊,你该告诉我雅虎搜索是怎么工作的了。” Several people did not think that at present young person will need that anything lies, therefore, is at heart more amazed. 几个人并不觉得眼前小小的人儿会有什么说谎的必要,于是,心里就更加惊诧。 They know from 1 to 100 arithmetic series of number sum formulas. However, if the present tiny tot can not use the method that these are opportunistic completely, but from 1 added to 100 in the several seconds simple and crude, and obtains the accurate result, this may not only be only the simple doing mental arithmetic ability can be solved, but also needs the formidable memory ability as well as more formidable doing mental arithmetic speed. 他们都知道从1到100的等差数列求和公式。但是,如果眼前的小不点能完全不使用这些取巧的方法,只是在短短几秒钟就简单粗暴地从1加到了100,并且得出准确结果,这可不仅仅只是简单的心算能力就能解决的,还需要强大的记忆能力以及更加强大的心算速度。 Steve when Mitnick in oneself and Hawaii is almost big has calculated this mathematics problems, but he also wrote to paint pictures day of time on the paper, had discovered some rules, this with ease came out result consider as finished. Although in his disposition always has several points to look down on the world, but the heart of hearts is actually very proud. But now, the present little girl possibly compared with his talent some. 史蒂夫・米特尼克在自己和夏威夷差不多大时就计算过这道数学题,但他也是在纸上写写画画了一天时间,才发现了一些规律,这才轻松地将结果算了出来。虽然他性格里总是带着几分玩世不恭,但内心深处其实是非常骄傲的。但现在,眼前的小女孩可能要比他更天才一些了。 Many some are not willingly, Steve Mitnick took the written records on tabletop rapid to write to paint pictures several in the notebook, before making simple section paper to place the camera, said: „Nà, Xiaxia, we present mathematics problems again, this time more difficult Oh, you to look that here has 1 to 9 nine digit, you try to be able these nine digit to fill in these checks, making in the check any three straight line connected digit add exactly the same.” 多少有些不甘心,史蒂夫・米特尼克拿起桌面上的纸笔迅速在笔记本上写写画画了几下,做出了一个简单的九宫格放在摄像头前,道:“呐,夏夏,我们再做一道数学题,这次更难哦,你看,这里有1到9九个数字,你试试能不能把这九个数字填到这些格子里,让格子里任何三个直线相连的数字加起来都一模一样。” This time, Tina Brown and Ian Gonul has not said anything, but looks curiously that Eric thinks, has not given the daughter any prompt. 这次,蒂娜・布朗、伊恩・格尼尔都没有说什么,只是好奇地看过来,艾瑞克想了想,也没有给女儿任何提示。 Hawaii was brought back the interest obviously, has not intertwined actually Steve Mitnick does not mean what he says, the big eye stares in the screen opposite notebook that several digit to size up curiously, the small head in humming sound is rotating obviously. 夏威夷明显被勾起了兴趣,倒是没有纠结史蒂夫・米特尼克说话不算话,大眼睛盯着屏幕对面笔记本上那几个数字好奇地打量起来,小脑瓜明显在嗡嗡转动着。
