Discussed a morning Yahoo next year development project, toward noon, everybody respective winding, Eric can inspect today opening about «Jurassic Park 3» draws the Box Office data. 讨论了一上午雅虎明年的发展规划,临近中午,大家各自下线,艾瑞克才得以检查今天关于《侏罗纪公园3》的开画票房数据。 «Jurassic Park 3» first date Box Office was 1902 ten thousand USD, although is unable compares with last week «Rush Hour 2» date 2 3.1 million USD Box Office data, has not actually stemmed from the Firefly movie to distribute the forecast of department. 《侏罗纪公园3》的首日票房为1902万美元,虽然无法与上周《尖峰时刻2》首日2310万美元的票房数据相比,却也没有出乎萤火虫电影发行部门的预测。 According to the analysis report of Los Angeles, according to first date 1902 ten thousand USD Box Office as well as the reputation condition, «Jurassic Park 3» first week Box Office should in 80 million USD high and low, North America total Box Office can break through 200 million USD probably with ease. Opens the picture according to the same time some back constraints of overseas Box Office market, overseas Box Office of this movie should also be able to achieve 400 million USD. 根据洛杉矶的分析报告,按照首日1902万美元的票房以及口碑状况,《侏罗纪公园3》的首周票房应该在8000万美元上下,北美总票房大概能够轻松突破2亿美元。根据同期开画的海外票房市场的一些数据反馈,这部电影的海外票房也应该能够达到4亿美元。 The once «Jurassic Park» series, as a result of Spielberg in working as a volunteer of second part, caused the entire trilogy the reputation or Box Office one were inferior to one. At present, after careful protecting of Firefly Group, the brand-new «Jurassic Park» trilogy as before is maintaining very good reputation and business outlook. Although global 600 million USD Box Office anticipated cannot compared with first two, but has surpassed North America over 90% big manufacture movies. 曾经的《侏罗纪公园》系列,由于斯皮尔伯格在第二部的玩票,使得整个三部曲无论是口碑还是票房都一部不如一部。眼下,经过萤火虫集团的细心呵护,全新的《侏罗纪公园》三部曲依旧保持着非常不错的口碑和商业前景。虽然全球6亿美元的票房预期远不能和前两部相比,但已经超过北美九成以上的大制作影片。 However, after third, this series will thoroughly also suspend, waited for that in the future the conditions be ripe will again restart. 不过,第三部之后,这个系列也将彻底暂停,等待未来时机成熟再行重启。 Makes tonight to go to Manhattan to attend a fund Manager person conference with Chris together, in the afternoon four o'clock, left Eath Hampton with Chris. 和克里斯约好了今天晚上一起去曼哈顿参加一个基金经理人会议,下午四点钟,就和克里斯一起离开了东汉普顿。 The meeting is JP Morgan Chase coordinates to conduct, place in square hotel. 聚会是摩根大通牵头举办的,地点在广场酒店。 Winter's weather is very short, after Eric and Chris arrive at Manhattan , the curtain of night will be near, chooses a dining room to have the supper, two talented people rush to the square hotel together. 冬日的天色很短,艾瑞克和克里斯到达曼哈顿后夜幕已经将近,挑选了一家餐厅吃过晚餐,两人才一起赶到广场酒店。 Just had wreaked havoc entire Southeast Asia, even if the United States home , many people were critical about the actions of these hedge funds, therefore this meeting also appeared very low-key, did not have red carpet, did not have the reporter, even did not have any sign to indicate that in this hotel one group of financial tycoons were in the secret meeting. Eric follows Chris until arriving at a banquet hall entrance, visits him to show the invitation, understood the destination. 刚刚肆虐了整个东南亚,哪怕是美国国内,也有很多人对于这些对冲基金的所作所为持批评态度,因此这次聚会也就显得非常低调,没有红毯,没有记者,甚至没有任何迹象表明这家酒店里一群金融大亨正在密会。艾瑞克跟随克里斯直到来到一间宴会厅门口,看着他出示邀请函,才明白到了目的地。 Enters the banquet hall, Eric saw that the middle-aged people of several suit and dress shoes welcomed together, shows the smile while asked Chris: „I remember where does not know saw, rope Ross likes participating in the artist, writer and musician these all kinds of meetings, only does not like participating in the meeting in circle, will he come today really?” 走进宴会厅,艾瑞克看到几个西装革履的中年人一起迎了上来,一边露出微笑一边问身旁的克里斯:“我记得不知道在哪里看到,索罗斯喜欢参加艺术家、作家、音乐人这些各种各样的聚会,唯独不喜欢参与圈子里的聚会,他今天真的会来吗？” Chris nods: „Naturally, I call him specially, said that you can come, then he also said that will come.” 克里斯点头:“当然,我特意打电话给他,说你会过来,然后他也就说会过来了。” Eric remembered Chris to coax couple days ago own words, suddenly has remembered some joke, said: „I suddenly think your this fellow also very...... The abdomen is black.” 艾瑞克想起前几天克里斯忽悠自己的话,突然想起了某个笑话,道:“我突然觉得你这家伙还挺……腹黑的。” Chris has not understood the phrase that obviously Eric puts together temporarily, said: „Oh, is this praise?” 克里斯显然没有明白艾瑞克临时拼起来的词组,道:“哦,这算是夸奖吗？” „Calculates that” Eric nods. “算,”艾瑞克点头。 Is exchanging greetings with several fund Manager people under the introduction of Chris, feeling these fund Manager people suddenly look to him and Chris behind. 正在克里斯的介绍下与几位基金经理人寒暄,就感觉这几位基金经理人突然就看向他和克里斯身后。 Has turned around, Eric saw that hair gray whole face ugly and ferocious-looking old man walked from out of the door, is George Szo Ross. 转过身,艾瑞克就看到一个头发花白满脸横肉的老头子从门外走了进来,正是乔治・索罗斯。 Somalian Ross faces him to be salute several people to nod, actually directly arrives in front of Eric, puts out a hand: „Hey, Eric, sees you very much happily.” 索罗斯朝向他行注目礼的几人点点头,却是直接走到艾瑞克面前,伸手到:“嘿,艾瑞克,很高兴见到你。” The opposite party displays such ripe winds, Eric was not shy of strangers, smiles is putting out a hand to grasp with him, said: „Hello, George.” 对方表现的这么熟络,艾瑞克也不认生,微笑着伸手与他握了下,道:“你好,乔治。” Somalian Ross obviously not with the meaning that the people excessively contact, but the person in hall has greeted simply, together found a seat to sit down with Eric, is having the expression of several points of chatting, said: „Eric, already wants to see you. Previous time bumps into Jeffrey on party, he said that you have written several words in my book, I also specially made him copy one to me. Very interesting, but, my Chinese friend said that you possibly want to display an imposing manner with these words, but in fact, their true meanings are not such that you imagine.” 索罗斯明显没有和众人过多接触的意思,只是和大厅里的人简单打过招呼,就与艾瑞克一起找到一处座位坐下,带着几分闲聊的语气,道:“艾瑞克,早就想见见你了。上次在派对上碰到杰弗瑞,他说你在我的那本书上写了几句话,我还专门让他给我抄了一份。很有意思,不过,我的一个华人朋友说,你可能是想要用这几句话表现一种气势,但实际上,它们的真正含义并不是你想象的那样。” From Somalian Ross spoken language, Eric can feel that this old man a period of time high-spiritedness, just opened the mouth to have meaning of several points of probe. 从索罗斯的言语里,艾瑞克就能感觉到这老头子最近一段时间的意气风发,刚刚开口就带了几分试探的意味。 Smiled to listen to rope Ross saying that Eric said: „I naturally know that the world is a furnace, the good fortune is the labor \; The Yin-Yang is the coal, the myriad things are the copper, these classical Chinese, in fact is explaining the Eastern ancient one world myriad things to have the philosophic thinking of its survival rule. However, just like that famous saying said that in 1000 reader eyes has 1000 Hamlet. Everyone to a matter some own understanding, I noticed that is one type grand scene that takes the world as the stove smelting temporals.” 微笑着听索罗斯说完,艾瑞克道:“我自然知道,天地为炉兮,造化为工\;阴阳为炭兮,万物为铜,这几句古汉语,实际上是在阐释东方古代的一种天地万物自有其生存规律的哲学思想。不过,正如那句名言所说,1000个读者眼里就有1000个哈姆雷特。每个人对一件事都有自己的理解,我看到的,就是一种以天地为火炉熔炼世间万物的壮阔场景。” Somalian Ross also thinks Eric stops after getting a smattering, deeply had not understood the Lao-Zhuang philosophy in that several classical Chinese containing, although he thought that regarding Eric this kind of young people, can be this degree to be splendid. 索罗斯原本还以为艾瑞克只是浅尝辄止,并没有深刻理解那几句古汉语中蕴含的老庄哲学,虽然他觉得对于艾瑞克这样一个年轻人来说,能够达到这种程度就已经非常出色了。 At this time, listening to Eric saying that he was clear, Eric was not worse than him regarding these understanding many, nodded, rope Ross said: „I understood, recently I with that Chinese friend have been discussing Eastern Lao-Zhuang philosophy, what this philosophy system is tasteful is the people must respect the world myriad things the operational principle, takes advantage of opportunity, but is. This point, they will have placed ‚person’ in standpoint. But you understood those words time, will actually have placed ‚world’ in standpoint.” 此时,听艾瑞克这么说,他才明白,艾瑞克对于这些的理解丝毫不比他差多少,点了点头,索罗斯道:“我明白了,这些日子我和那位华人朋友一直在讨论东方的老庄哲学,这一哲学体系讲究的是人们要尊重天地万物的运行法则,顺势而为。这一点,他们是将自己放在了‘人’的立场上。但你理解那句话的时候,却将自己放在了‘天地’的立场上。” „, If these words were heard by others, I will certainly be regarded the megalomania.” Eric could not bear smile. “呵,如果这些话被别人听到,我一定会被当成自大狂的。”艾瑞克忍不住笑了起来。 „No, you really have this capital, our these old fogies before you, the only superiority, are only our age are bigger,” rope Ross also exudes the chuckle sound, then also said: „Eric, my matter is not quite clear, in Southeast Asia the matter, why you after the Thai bhat and Indonesian rupiah, will jump over the currencies of other national areas, detains the note won directly? Said, although the capital of this investment are few, but in this crisis, your returns ratios exceeds the majority of hedge fund absolutely. More people do not hate to let go in the half year in all opportunities, finally instead cannot yield many incomes.” “不,你确实有这个资本,我们这些老家伙在你面前,唯一优势,只是我们年龄更大而已,”索罗斯也跟着发出轻笑声,转而又道:“艾瑞克,我还有一件事不太明白,东南亚的这件事里,你为什么会在泰铢、印尼盾之后,跳过其他国家地区的货币,直接押注韩元呢？说真的,你们这次投入的资本虽然很少,但在这次危机中,你们的收益率绝对超过大部分对冲基金。更多人舍不得放弃这半年里的所有机会,结果反而没能获得多少收益。” Eric not strange rope Ross can know various layouts of Firefly investment in this Southeast Asia economic crisis, he definitely cannot to a rope Ross explanation, does not want to talk nonsense, has to shirk saying: „George, this matter, I thought that you asked Chris is quite good, I only understand some basic theoretical knowledge actually.” 艾瑞克并不奇怪索罗斯能够知晓萤火虫投资在这次东南亚经济危机中的各种布局,他肯定是不能给索罗斯一个解释的,也不想胡说八道,只好推脱道:“乔治,这种事情,我觉得你还是问克里斯比较好,我其实只懂得一些基本的理论知识。” „I had asked that Hansson said that this is the result that you insist.” Somalian Ross said that the vision closely is staring at Eric. “我已经问过了,汉森说,这是你坚持的结果。”索罗斯说完,目光紧紧地盯着艾瑞克。 Eric glanced Chris that not far away just and person talked and laughed merrily, the booth lets go saying: „If you take an answer, I thought that this should be because I am an outsider, when others in following the crowd 11 strangle to death the Southeast Asia various countries currency, I have not actually done this, moreover I do not have am so greedy, butts in all national goods compared with on with it, otherwise all strengths centralized in a point. As this economic strength most developed country of Southeast Asia besides saying, I thought this crisis last war should be South Korea, an ambush won profit is biggest, has enough layout time.” 艾瑞克瞟了眼不远处正和人谈笑风生的克里斯,摊摊手道:“如果你一定要一个答案的话,我觉得,这应该是因为我是局外人,别人都在随大流11绞杀东南亚各国货币时,我却没有这样做,而且我也没那么贪心,与其在所有国家货比上都插一脚,不然将所有力量都集中在一个点上。作为东南亚除曰本之外经济实力最发达的国家,我觉得这次危机的最后一战应该是韩国,狙击韩元的利润最大,也拥有足够的布局时间。” Somalian Ross is savoring carefully the Eric words, just about to approves the nod, then shakes the head, said: „No, South Korea is not this financial crisis last station.” 索罗斯仔细品味着艾瑞克的话,刚要认可地点头,转而又摇头,道:“不,韩国并不是这次金融危机的最后一站。” Eric also shakes the head: „Initiates the profit that second round attacks not to be big to Southeast Asia, although definitely some people such will do next year, but I think not to need. Other, I cannot think that also has any valuable goal.” 艾瑞克也摇头:“对东南亚发起第二轮攻击的利润已经不大,虽然明年肯定会有人这么做,但我觉得没有必要。其他的,我想不到还有什么有价值的目标。” Somalian Ross prompts to say skillfully: „You think toward north again, that polar bear.” 索罗斯循循善诱地提示道:“你再往北想,那只北极熊。” Eric felt that rope Ross is roaring a sheep to jump in the wicked wolf of trap likely, he can feel this old man to oneself not anything evil intention, but on own initiative does not want small pit: „George, if I have not remembered incorrectly, Russia this year one year achieves 10 billion USD through the release national debt and stock the scale of way introduction foreign capital, this adds more than the beforehand five years. In these 10 billion, quantum fund should occupy very big one, you hope really Russia also does lead to the economic crisis?” 艾瑞克感觉索罗斯像是在哄一只绵羊跳进陷阱的恶狼,他能感觉到这老头子对自己没什么恶意,但还是不自觉地想要小小地坑自己一把:“乔治,如果我没记错,俄罗斯今年一年通过发行国债和股票的方式引入外资的规模就达到100亿美元,这比之前五年加起来还要多。这100亿里,量子基金应该占很大一份吧,你真的希望俄罗斯也爆发经济危机？” In the memory, in 1998, Russia truly inevitably fell into the middle of the economic crisis. 记忆中,1998年,俄罗斯确实不可避免地陷入了经济危机当中。 But this time, the rope Ross manner favors preserving the ruble exchange rate. Because of him in beforehand one year, favoring that because recovers to the Russia economy, will be used to buy up the Russia national debt and stock from the big profit of Southeast Asia various countries money market gain. Afterward, because the Russia currency depreciates largely, the stock and bond also drop sharply, around rope Ross loses close 3 billion USD. 但这次,索罗斯的态度是倾向于保全卢布汇率的。因为他在之前一年时间,由于对俄罗斯经济复苏的看好,将从东南亚各国货币市场获取的大笔利润都用来买进俄罗斯的国债和股票。随后,因为俄罗斯货币大幅贬值,股票和债券同时大跌,索罗斯前后损失接近30亿美元。 Somalian Ross look doubt has sized up Eric several, this time he really somewhat was surprised: „Eric, don't you as if favor the Russia economy?” 索罗斯眼神狐疑地打量了艾瑞克几眼,这次他是真的有些惊讶了:“艾瑞克,你似乎不看好俄罗斯经济？” Eric shrugs, said: „ Your that «Finance Alchemy» makes me profit a great deal. You on economic activity are called self-examination effect of the human factor. The economic activity receives the jamming less, conforms to the theoretical economic law on exceed. 艾瑞克耸耸肩,道:“你的那本《金融炼金术》还是让我受益良多的。你把人为因素对经济活动的影响称为反身性。经济活动受到人为干扰越少,就越符合理论性的经济规律。 However, you have a look at Russia, although in its surface is a capitalist country, but the economy of capital to this country actually cannot play any decisive effect, decided what truly Russia economical trend is a person, but the person are selfish, they have their standpoint, has own selfishness, in these concern in front of the benefit of oneself body, is willing to be a national nationality truly, even if makes some people still few pity of concessions slightly. For Yeltsin his political ambition does not hesitate to draw in The Abyss entire Soviet Union, making the huge empire that once sufficiently and federation contended with disintegrate, he as before on the Russia President seat, who can guarantee that now he second time such will not do. Who can guarantee that can't have the second Yeltsin to appear? 但是,你看看俄罗斯,虽然它表面上是一个资本主义国家,但资本对这个国家的经济却起不到任何决定性作用,真正决定俄罗斯经济走向的是人,但人都是自私的,他们有自己的立场,有自己的私心,在这些关乎己身的利益面前,真正肯为一个国家一个民族哪怕稍微做出一些让步的人依然少的可怜。叶利钦为了自己的政治野心不惜将整个苏联拖入深渊,让曾经足以和联邦抗衡的庞大帝国土崩瓦解,他现在依旧在俄罗斯总统的位子上,谁敢保证他不会第二次这么做呢。谁又敢保证不会有第二个叶利钦出现呢？ Therefore, I am pessimistic about the Russia future. You look, George, once the economic crisis affects Russia, that group of people first considered that can only protects own interests. In the final analysis, a ruble depreciation, receives to injure most greatly, is only the common people, they only as far as possible will also pass the burden this harm to the common people on. ” 所以,我对俄罗斯的未来持悲观态度。你看吧,乔治,一旦经济危机波及俄罗斯,那群人首先考虑的,只会是保护自己的利益。归根结底,卢布贬值,受到伤害最大的,只是平民,他们也只会把这种损害尽可能地转嫁到平民身上。” Somalian Ross felt suddenly one somewhat could not understand the present young people, Eric seemed is saying Russia, but as if was also is saying other. However, he thought that Eric these words are actually very reasonable. Current Russia President Yeltsin is what person, rope Ross is clear, he somewhat regretted invested Russia suddenly the big fund, but at this time, wanting in the short-term to withdraw from Russia that several 1 billion USD funds, obviously was also not realistic. 索罗斯突然感觉自己有些看不懂眼前的年轻人了,艾瑞克似乎是在说俄罗斯,但似乎又是在说其他。不过,他觉得艾瑞克这番话却是非常有道理的。现任俄罗斯总统叶利钦是什么样的人,索罗斯再清楚不过,他突然有些后悔将大笔资金投入到了俄罗斯,但此时,想要短期内将那几十亿美元资金从俄罗斯撤出,显然也是不现实。 Temporarily puts down this matter, rope Ross said: „Eric, I discovered that you is a thorough pesimist.” 暂时放下这件事,索罗斯道:“艾瑞克,我发现,你是一个彻底的悲观主义者。” Eric also felt one somewhat were just rude, self-ridiculed that shakes the head slightly, in any case, had nothing to do with oneself. 艾瑞克也感觉自己刚刚有些失态,自嘲地微微摇头,反正,都与自己无关了。 Once more becomes by an own heart indifferent, on the Eric face appears quickly the smile, said: „Yes, side many people said that I am a pesimist, I thought that this does not have anything not to be good, pessimistic actually is also one type the strength that drives the person to go forward. I thought that some own also a lot must be done, therefore too optimistically for good.” 让自己的一颗心再次变得冷漠起来,艾瑞克脸上很快浮现出微笑,道:“是啊,身边很多人都说我是一个悲观主义者,我觉得这没什么不好,悲观其实也是一种驱人前进的力量。我觉得自己还有很多事情要做,所以还是不要太乐观为好。” „Mentioned this, Eric, you as if were infatuated with the investment to the new science and technology. Combination of Firefly investment, in my opinion, basically is one pile of bubbles. The NASDAQ market will be disillusioned sooner or later. If I am you, I rather completely use the fund in the development of Firefly Group.” “说起这个,艾瑞克,你似乎过于迷恋对新科技的投入了。萤火虫投资的组合,在我看来,基本上都是一堆泡沫。纳斯达克市场早晚会破灭的。如果我是你,我宁愿把资金全部用在萤火虫集团的发展上。” Eric knows that rope Ross this is makes the suggestion in the sincerity to oneself, but does not approve the person of same belief: „George, this aspect, you instead appeared too pessimistic. Present hi-tech stock started bubble is not false. However, bubble that hundred million USD pile up surely, even if shatter, the dust detritus that keeps is also a very huge wealth.” 艾瑞克知道索罗斯这是在真心地给自己提建议,但还是不赞同道:“乔治,这方面,你反而显得太悲观了。现在的科技股已经开始泡沫化是不假。但是,千万亿美元堆积起来的泡沫,哪怕破碎,留下来的粉尘碎屑也是一笔非常庞大的财富。” Eric provokes this topic, they started to chat the new technical tide, chatted the third technology revolution, occasionally rope Ross also will pull the topic to the philosophy topic that oneself liked, self-ridiculed one were the philosopher who the financial circle most failed. 艾瑞克挑起这个话题,两人又开始聊起了新科技浪潮,聊起了第三次科技革命,偶尔索罗斯还会把话题扯向自己喜爱的哲学话题上,自嘲自己是金融界最失败的哲学家。 Visits them to chat fiery, wanted the people who said something to smooth things over to try to get close to also only to cease all activities, only then during Chris, walked, has delivered two glasses of liquor to them, accompanied was chatting several, the trace got out of the way. 看着两人聊得火热,原本想要过来搭讪套近乎的众人也只能偃旗息鼓,只有克里斯期间走过来,给他们送了两杯酒,陪着聊了几句,又不着痕迹地走开。 When leaves the meeting passes night ten o'clock. 离开聚会时已经过了深夜十点钟。 Eric just before leaving the talent and rope Ross has exchanged the name card, they had not said words that anything will say goodbye next time, after a evening's exchange, they also discovered that is that type likes with the person maintains the disposition of distance. 艾瑞克临走时才和索罗斯互换了名片,两人却都没有说什么下次再见的话,经过一晚上的交流,他们也都发现,相互之间都是那种喜欢与人保持距离的性格。 Several hours, drank several glasses of liquor unavoidably much, Eric returned to themselves in the apartment of sixth main road, have taken a bath, the tipsy feeling was thicker. 几个小时时间,难免多喝了几杯酒,艾瑞克回到自己在第六大道的公寓,洗过澡,酒意却更浓了一些。 Wears the bathrobe, scratches the wet hair to go to the living room, Eric lies down on the sofa sluggishly some does not want to move, takes up the remote control to turn on the television conveniently. 穿着浴袍,擦着湿漉漉的头发来到客厅,艾瑞克懒散地躺在沙发上有些不想动弹,随手拿起遥控器打开电视机。 The Fox channel is broadcasting a costume piece, cannot distinguish clearly the age, in the anthology dressing up of character somewhat looked like his previous life has played «Antiquity Reel» actually and so on person of western-style singularly varied game supposes. 福克斯频道正在播放一部古装剧,分不清年代,剧集里人物的装扮倒是有些像他前世玩过的《上古卷轴》之类西式奇幻游戏的人设。 Eric glanced several, this time an anthology should rebroadcast, he does not have any interest regarding the costume piece of West. Will change the stage, in a female archer by anthology was actually captured the attention. 艾瑞克瞟了几眼,这个时间点的剧集应该是重播,他对于西方的古装剧是没有任何兴趣的。正要换台,却被剧集里的一个女弓箭手吸引住了目光。 Actually because of the actor of this female archer attractive, is mainly that eye. 倒不是因为这位女弓箭手的扮演者有多漂亮,主要是那双眼睛。 That eye of Actress is not big, with attractive charming and so on glossary cannot touch on slightly. Does not know that is the color of that pair of pupil is superficial, a pair of pupil appears is swarthy and striking, to person a sorceress strange feeling, but the makings of her whole person actually look like the cat that momentarily possibly receives to frighten, appears timid and frail, even is somewhat nervous. 女演员的那双眼睛并不算大,也和漂亮妩媚之类的词汇沾不上边。只是,不知道是不是那双眸子的颜色过于浅淡,一双瞳孔显得非常黝黑而醒目,给人一种女巫般的诡异感,但她整个人的气质却又像一只随时可能受到惊吓的猫,显得胆小而脆弱,甚至有几分神经质。 Eric these days in looking for «Ring» Heroine, at this time, sees in the screen this named Vera Actress, Eric suddenly thought that has such one pair to suit the horror film the eye, she simply customizes for «Ring» Heroine. 艾瑞克这段时间一直都在物色《午夜凶铃》的女主角,此时,看到屏幕里这位名叫维拉・法梅加的女演员,艾瑞克突然觉得,有着这样一双适合恐怖片的眼睛,她简直就是为《午夜凶铃》女主角量身定做的。
