Chapter 216 第216章 Being in a dilemma 两难 „Welcomes to Pixar work room, Ide.” Adrian just arrived at the entrance of Pixar work room, Jobs comes out to greet him, together simultaneously comes out also has two people. Fat appears very prosperous-looking, thin is gathering the whiskers, the interesting three people are bringing the eyeglasses, in addition the height is also almost the same, appears very interesting. “欢迎光临皮克斯工作室,艾德。”阿德里安刚到皮克斯工作室的门口,乔布斯就出来迎接他了,同时一起出来的还有两个人。一个胖胖的显得很富态,一个瘦瘦的蓄着络腮胡,有意思的三个人都带着眼镜,加上身高也相差无几,显得非常有趣。 After Jobs's introduction, Adrian knows that wears the prosperous-looking man of flowered check garment and large shorts is John Rust, is Pixar's chief creativity officer \; But the monochromatic shirt adds the trousers, on foot actually puts on the sloven middle-aged man of sandals is Ide Camors, Pixar's CTO. 经过乔布斯的介绍,阿德里安才知道穿着花格子衫和肥大中短裤的富态男子是约翰・拉斯特,是皮克斯的首席创意官\;而单色衬衣加长裤,脚上却穿着凉鞋的不修边幅的中年男子则是艾德・卡莫尔,皮克斯的技术总监。 „Knows you very much happily.” Adrian is smiling and their 11 handshakes, these two in the future is called „Pixar's core and soul” the fellow, now looks like relatively is quite young. “很高兴认识你们。”阿德里安微笑着和他们11握手,这两个在未来被称为“皮克斯的核心和灵魂”的家伙,现在看起来还是相对比较年轻。 „We walks while discussed.” The hand signal that Jobs sat invitation at this time, four male female walks toward inside immediately. “我们边走边谈吧。”乔布斯这时坐了个请的手势,四男一女随即往里面走去。 The present Pixar work room is very crude, looks like the scale is good, but was possibly inferior in the field continually some small work rooms. Each workshop appears chaotic, various types of goods personal public suspends everywhere is, what only praiseworthy is at least is maintaining the most basic clean environment. 现在的皮克斯工作室还很简陋,看起来规模还算不错,但在某些方面可能连一些小工作室都不如。每个工作间都显得杂乱无章,各种物品私人的公用的都摆得到处都是,唯一值得称赞的是至少保持着最基本的清洁环境。 The staff chaotically are always discussing the issue, argued everyone not to convince anyone unceasingly. Moreover, sometimes is two people with a computer, the heaven on, Jobs makes the personal computing. Except for these, but can also see that in the thing that other company or the work room cannot see, for example 员工们总是七嘴八舌的讨论着问题,不断的争辩谁也说服不谁。而且,有时候是两个人用一台电脑,老天在上,乔布斯可是做个人电脑的。除了这些,还可以看到些在别的公司或者工作室看不到的东西,比如 „Hey, front several, please let!” A sound shouted loudly is conveying from behind, Adrian has turned head to have a look, immediately drew Charlie to let near the wall, but Jobs their three was also making the similar movement. “嘿,前面的几位,请让一让！”一个声音高喊着从后面传来,阿德里安回过头去看看,随即拉着查理兹让到了墙边,而乔布斯他们三个也在做同样的动作。 „Thanks.” Is stepping on the slide with a laugh in the young fellow who on the corridor speeds along in front of them has blown from Adrian. “谢谢。”踩着滑板在过道上飞驰的小伙子笑呵呵的从阿德里安他们面前刮了过去。 „Here, everybody is quite casual, we do not want to live in saying that everybody Camors explained with too many strip conventions”. “在这里,大家都比较随便,我们不想用太多的条框框住大家”卡莫尔解释的说道。 „Coming out that looks.” Nod of Adrian shows neither approval nor disapproval “看的出来。”阿德里安不置可否的点了点头 At this time, the staff of another moon-face brandished the rough sketch to rush to front of Rust: „John, you yes what's the matter?!” 这时,又一个圆脸的员工挥舞着画稿跑到了拉斯特面前:“约翰,你这是怎么回事？！” „How, Andrew?” Rust received the rough sketch that he hands over puzzled “怎么了,安德鲁？”拉斯特不解的接过他递来的画稿 „I initially to am not this that you said that here and here also had the setting that here did not tally most starts,” Andrew looked like somewhat annoyed, „what you were making, John? In this case, might as well all gives me to establish original!” “我当初跟你说的可不是这样,这里、这里还有这里不符合最开始的设定,”安德鲁看起来有些恼火,“你到底在做什么,约翰？这样的话,还不如将所有原画交给我来设定！” „Good good, I apologize?” Rust also looks to have problems, saying of such good nature. “好吧好吧,我道歉好吗？”拉斯特也看出了什么问题,这样好脾气的说道。 „This is Andrew Stanton, very outstanding animator and programmer.” Camors introduced taking this opportunity. “这是安德鲁・斯坦顿,很出色的动画师和程序员。”卡莫尔借这个机会介绍了起来。 Asked Andrew's young people then to discover that also had the guest, immediately when Camors introduced Adrian put out a hand to exchange greetings, his attention on the animation, said obviously two expressed after under welcome, immediately looked once more to Rust. 叫安德鲁的年轻人这才发现还有客人,当即在卡莫尔介绍阿德里安的时候伸手寒暄,不过他的注意力明显都在动画上面,说了两句表示了下欢迎后随即再次看向拉斯特。 „About this issue, Andrew, we will reach an agreement slightly later again?” Rust said finally like this that „naturally, here several wrongly as well as have the words of same mistake, can definitely according to your view revision.” “关于这个问题,安德鲁,稍微晚些时候我们再谈好吗？”拉斯特最后这样说道,“当然,这里的几个错误以及还有相同的错误的话,完全可以按照你的看法修改。” „Thanks, then this.” Andrew was saying departure that does not return. “谢谢,那么就这样吧。”安德鲁说着头也不回的离开了。 „Our staff do not have the division of upper and lower layer, this instead can raise the working efficiency.” Camors continues to explain. “我们这里的员工们没有上下级之分,这样反而可以提高工作效率。”卡莫尔继续解释。 „Coming out that looks.” Saying that Adrian still shows neither approval nor disapproval. “看的出来。”阿德里安依然不置可否的说道。 After visiting the work room, several people come to the conference room by Camors and Rust introduced in turn the sand buckle Kaess's history as well as these years situation, have broadcast before while convenient also several , the animation short film that manufactures, for example «Toy soldier» and «Jumped Dancing lantern», Adrian also plays several jokes to pull closer taking this opportunity under has been away from. 参观完工作室后,几人来到会议室里由卡莫尔和拉斯特轮流介绍起皮克斯的历史以及这几年的情况,顺便也就播放了几部以前制做的动画短片,比如《小锡兵》和《跳跳灯》,阿德里安也借着这个机会开了几个玩笑拉近了下距离。 For example after «Jumps Dancing lantern» broadcasts, he intentionally reveals an appearance of ponder, is pointing at picture serious asking Rust: „John, can tell me, in the movie is that desk lamp the father or mother?” 比如《跳跳灯》播完之后他就故意露出一副沉思的模样,指着画面严肃的问拉斯特:“约翰,能告诉我,影片里那盏台灯是爸爸还是妈妈？” Rust has gawked staring, immediately laughs to reply: „, It is only a child.” 拉斯特愣了愣,随即大笑着回答道:“都是不是,它只是个孩子。” Then Jobs and Camors Ha Ha have smiled, here has a literary reference, after Pixar's first short film work «Jumps Dancing lantern» shows a film, the movie just showed that a well-known professor of computer graphics domain knows that John Rust wants to ask his question. Although then Rust accumulated many manufactures to experience, may after all the first director animated film, moreover animated film, therefore at heart immediately became incomparably anxious, because in his opinion in this short film had too many technical faults and insufficient, if the opposite party asked that his technology issue, for example which data were the miscalculations, he really does not know how must reply. However what made him not think, this computer expert serious asked unexpectedly: „In your movie is that desk lamp the father or mother?” 然后乔布斯和卡莫尔都哈哈笑了起来,这里有个典故,当皮克斯的第一部短片作品《跳跳灯》上影后,影片刚放映完,一位电脑图形图像领域的知名教授就知道约翰・拉斯特想要问他个问题。当时的拉斯特虽然已经积累了很多制作经验了,可毕竟还是第一次导演动画电影,而且还是动画电影,于是心里顿时变得无比紧张,因为在他看来这个短片里有太多的技术失误与不足,如果对方问他技术方面的问题,比如哪些数据是计算错误的,他实在不知道要如何回答。但是令他万万没有想到的是,这位电脑专家居然一脸严肃地问:“你影片里那盏台灯是爸爸还是妈妈？” Right, is that question that Adrian asked a moment ago, therefore several people have smiled, atmosphere also therefore harmonious. Adrian also while convenient borrows this opportunity vague telling opposite party, he had the understanding to Pixar. 没错,就是阿德里安刚才问的那个问题,所以几个人都笑了起来,气氛也因此更加的融洽。阿德里安也顺便借这个机会隐晦的告诉对方,他已经对皮克斯是有了解的。 „Enthusiasms thank you receive cordially, I must acknowledge that this harvest is not small.” So said to three important personages in just before leaving Adrian that then to Jobs a meaningful glance, a Jobs's understanding person has delivered him to board. “谢谢你们的热情款待,我得承认这次的收获不小。”在临走的时候阿德里安如此对三位重要人物说道,然后对乔布斯施了个眼色,乔布斯会意的一个人送他上了车。 „I had an idea, will give you to answer as soon as possible.” Adrian such said to him, on face does not have other expression very much tranquilly, after the opposite party indicated that understands immediately shakes hand to say goodbye to board with him. “我已经有了点想法,会尽快给你答复的。”阿德里安这么对他说道,脸上很平静没有别的表情,在对方表示明白后随即和他握手道别上车。 Although is imperfect, but this indeed is Pixar who he wants, but Rust and Camors seem like the enthusiasms, but seems not glad to change a boss, they hide very well this mood, but Adrian looked. 虽然还不完善,但这的确是他想要的皮克斯,不过拉斯特和卡莫尔看似热情,但似乎并不太乐意换个老板,他们把这种情绪掩藏得很好,可阿德里安还是看了出来。 Thinks is also, Jobs when they were most difficult have supported them, and has supported now, he understood the computer to understand the technology to understand their dreams, if changed into other person to come, god knows will make Pixar turn into anything. Naturally, Adrian that throughout maintains the manner of showing neither approval nor disapproval is also being one of the reasons, is only he has to like this, he does not want to make Jobs see anything to come from his expression, then sits the starting price. 想想也是,乔布斯在他们最为困难的时候支持了他们,而且一直支持到现在,他懂电脑懂技术懂他们的梦想,要是换成别的人来,天知道会让皮克斯变成什么。当然,阿德里安那始终保持着不置可否的态度也是原因之一,只是他不得不这样,他不想让乔布斯从自己的表情中看出什么来,然后坐地起价。 Has not related, later found an opportunity and they chats well was good, I will not interfere them in any case, so long as Rust and Camors on line...... Andrew Stanton. Adrian is thinking, glanced eye peaceful sitting in own Charlie, suddenly opens the mouth to ask: „, You thinks that Pixar is what kind of?” 没关系,以后找个机会和他们好好谈谈就行了,反正我也不会干涉他们,只要拉斯特和卡莫尔在就行了……哦,还有安德鲁・斯坦顿。阿德里安这么想着,瞟了眼安静的坐在自己身边的查理兹,忽然开口问道:“查莉,你认为皮克斯怎么样？” „I?” Charlie now there is some accidental has selected the eyebrow, after arriving in Pixar work room she is maintaining the low key, like all assistants, when the boss discussed the matter became by oneself transparent. “我？”查理兹有些意外的挑了挑眉,从抵达皮克斯工作室后她就一直保持着低调,像所有助理那样在老板商谈事情的时候让自己变得透明。 „Yes, said that your view, believes that you should observe carefully.” Adrian shows a faint smile. “是的,说说你的看法,相信你应该观察得更为仔细。”阿德里安微微一笑。 Charlie not polite, after spending for several seconds to reorganize under the train of thought that immediately said: „Because I did not know about many matters very much . Moreover the time of collection material you give was too short, therefore said my feeling from the surface. Their technological strengths should be good, will otherwise not be commended by many people, but also obtains that many award items, what therefore their present needs is can fully show the strength the lengthy animation.” 查理兹也没客气,花了几秒钟整理了下思绪后随即说了起来:“因为我对不少事情不是很了解,而且你给的收集资料的时间太短了,所以只是从表面上说说我的感受。他们的技术实力应该还是不错的,否则不会被很多人所称赞,还得到那么多的奖项,所以他们现在需要的是能充分展示实力的长篇动画。” „Is splendid.” Adrian patted two to start gently, has to acknowledge that Charlie was very indeed intelligent, otherwise in memory she will not achieve such achievement. According to this logic, arranges an out of the ordinary life for her as if also good? “非常出色。”阿德里安轻轻拍了两下手,不得不承认查理兹的确很聪明,否则记忆中她不会取得那样的成就。这样说来,为她安排一个与众不同的人生似乎也不错？ „You have thought plays movie?” Adrian such asked suddenly. “你有想过出演电影吗,查莉？”阿德里安忽然这么问道。 „Plays the movie?” Charlie bewildered looks at Adrian, why she does not understand the topic suddenly since Pixar jumped to acting on the movie. “出演电影？”查理兹莫名其妙的看着阿德里安,她不明白为什么话题会突然从皮克斯跳到演电影上面去了。 „Yes, you so beautiful so intelligent, so long as there are me , can definitely become the big star.” Adrian said with a smile, in the expression is the enticement, „will attain the Oscar best actress is not the difficult matter.” “是啊,你是如此的美丽又如此的聪明,只要有我在,完全可以成为大明星。”阿德里安笑着说道,语气里全是诱惑,“拿到奥斯卡最佳女主角也不会是难事。” Charlie just started somewhat to be slightly excited, but after Adrian said the following words the look turned immediately vigilantly, after body also slightly supine, seemed asking that you also had any plot. 查理兹刚开始微微还有些心动,但在阿德里安说出后面的话后神色随即变成了警惕,身体也略略后仰,仿佛在问你又有什么阴谋。 „I am earnest, you have into all conditions of big star.” Adrian was saying put out a hand to hang on her cheek, no matter also Glover still drives in front. “我是认真的,查莉,你有着成为大明星的所有条件。”阿德里安说着伸手在她的脸蛋上挂了下,也不管格洛弗还在前面开着车。 „Thanks, but exempted.” Charlie forced smile was expressing rejection, the pupil of celadon was dodging the ray, clear telling Adrian: Do not want to control me! “谢谢,不过还是免了吧。”查理兹假笑着表示了拒绝,灰绿的眸子闪着光芒,明白无误的告诉阿德里安:别想控制我！ Adrian has exchanged immediately „sadly” expression: „, You must know,......” 阿德里安随即换上了“伤心”的表情:“哦,你要知道,查莉……” „About Steve Jobs, I have a question,” did not wait for him saying that Charlie changed the topic, „, although the material showed that he invested much on Pixar, but compared the investment to next computer company actually by far insufficiently, whether this can explain he attaching great importance to degree to Pixar was not high, if you want to purchase could work in this above.” “关于史蒂夫・乔布斯,我有个疑问,”不等他说下去,查理兹就岔开了话题,“虽然资料显示他在皮克斯上面投入了不少,但相比对next计算机公司的投入却远远不够,这是否可以说明他对皮克斯的重视程度并不高,如果你想收购的话也许可以在这上面做功夫。” „I must say one again, you are very outstanding.” After silent several seconds, Adrian such said that although he also knows this, because at that time he had „knew in advance” superiority, but Charlie was the complete root supports the material to make such inference, although possibly also had other factor, but depended on this to see her intelligent degree sufficiently. “我要再说一句,查莉,你很出色。”沉默了几秒钟后阿德里安这么说道,他虽然也知道这点,但那时因为他有“预知”的优势,而查理兹是完全根据手中资料做出这样的推断的,虽然可能还有别的因素,但就凭这个足以看出她的聪明程度。 Then, Adrian fell into during the ponder, but he ponders how do not keep prices down, what he ponders has thought before Charlie that words once has thought was hard to make the decision the matter: Can purchase Pixar? 然后,阿德里安陷入了思考当中,不过他思考的并不是要怎么压价,他思考的是因为查理兹那番话而想到了之前就曾想过的难以做出决定的事情:要怎么收购皮克斯？ This should be very simple matter, on the flower several million buys from Jobs hand was good, he also said that so long as price appropriately. But Adrian also has another plan at heart, that is the capital 10 million, divides equally Pixar's stockholder's rights with Jobs. 这应该是很简单的事情,花上几千万从乔布斯手中买下就行了,他也说了,只要价格合适就可以。但阿德里安心里还有另外一个计划,那就是注资10000000,和乔布斯平分皮克斯的股权。 Naturally, to many people, if settled on some type of thing, moreover such thing is very important to own development, definitely wants to grasp it completely in own hand. Adrian also like this thinks that but a little he cannot affirm, that is, Pixar's success, in Jobs did return to the apple in the process the major function?! 当然,对很多人来说,如果看中了某样东西,而且这样东西还对自己的发展很重要,肯定想要将其全部握在自己的手中。阿德里安也是这样想的,只是有一点他不能肯定,那就是,皮克斯的成功在乔布斯重返苹果的过程中起了多大的作用？！
