第43章Caninvest?
要投资吗?
It is difficult to describe that Cateopens the doorto seeto have the exhaustedAdrianmoodwhen8hourstravel-worn, sheapproximatelyingatespeechlessseveralminutes, thencannotbelievehas rubbedowneye, screamed that threw the Adrianbosom, the oversizedimpulsewill bringAdrianto draw backseveralin the futurecontinuallystepsiscomes to a stop.
很难形容凯特在8个多小时之后打开房门看见风尘仆仆带着疲惫的阿德里安时的心情,她大约在门口呆了好几分钟,然后不敢相信的揉了揉自己的眼睛,尖叫一声扑进了阿德里安的怀里,过大的冲劲带着阿德里安往后连退几步才算站稳。Thishas not calculatedthat the nextsecondshestopped up the mouth of Adrianto go all outto suck , the exchangeseveralminutes of body fluidshave not been willingto give up, not care a whoop the surroundingpedestrianas well asstandinentrance the expression of family member, as ifdid not do thisis unable to express the sentiment of herwild with joy.
这还没算完,下一秒钟她就堵住了阿德里安的嘴巴拼命吮吸起来,啧啧的交换了好几分钟津液都不肯罢休,毫不在意周围行人以及站在门口的家人的表情,仿佛不这样做就无法表达她的狂喜之情。„Icannotbelievereally...... Icannotbelievereally...... Youunexpectedly...... Youappearedinfrontunexpectedlyreally......”Cateheld the face of Adrianto be excitedspeak incoherently, in the beautifulpupilwas glittering the clearray.
“我真不敢相信……我真不敢相信……你居然……你居然真的出现在面前了……”凯特捧着阿德里安的脸激动得语无伦次,明媚的眸子里闪烁着晶莹的光芒。„Youthinkmeto come, Icame.”Adrianshrugs, shows an exhaustedsmile, „Iam on leavein any casenow, moreoverarrives inLondon is very convenient.”
“你想我过来,那我就过来了。”阿德里安耸了耸肩,露出一个疲惫的微笑,“反正我现在正在休假,而且到伦敦也很方便。”Thismovementtradestrades the painfulkiss that Catehas no scruplesonce more, the womanisthis, particularlyshewas in love withby the young woman who the perceptionbecomes confusedlike this. Onebutownsweetheartaftermotionexpressedonetheyplacein the heart the most importantplace, theywill be moved beyond words. Ifownsweetheartalsomakes this is not worthy of mentioningminor matter, so long asyouwantmemomentarilyto be ableappearancelike this, thatwill makethemsatisfy.
这个动作换再次换来凯特毫无顾忌的痛吻,女人就是这样,尤其是她这样被爱恋被感性冲昏头脑的年轻女性。一但自己的情人用行动表示自己将她们放在心中最重要的地方后,她们就会感动得无以复加。如果自己的情人还做出一副这是微不足道的小事,只要你愿意我随时可以这样的模样,那就会让她们更加的满足。Barely escaping deathAdrian, was really is familiaragaincannottothesemethodsbe familiar.
两世为人的阿德里安,对这些手段真是熟悉得不能再熟悉了。Followingin34day, Catenaturallyinasked for leaveafter the schoolfrequentlyandAdrianstays together, theyplayeverywhereevenrush to the Britishislandnorthernmostto look at the seascape. Even if mother remindedintelephonedoes not wantnot to go homefor a long time, was used„mebyheris the adult”has gone againstdirectly.
接下来的34天里,凯特自然是在向学校请了假后时时刻刻和阿德里安呆在一起,两人到处游玩甚至跑到不列颠岛最北端去看海景。哪怕母亲在电话里提醒不要长时间不回家,也被她用“我已经是成年人了”直接顶了回去。HoweverfourdayslaterAdrianhas toreturn toLos Angeles, becauseFernmakes the phone callto remindhimto attendin the weekend the party that holdsin the Baccarathotel, the bossas well as«Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels»and«Memento» the director and producerascompany, Adrianis impossibleto decline, let alonealsohas the importantmatterat the party. Even iftheythinkto have not given full expression, maykiss goodbyeat the Heathrowinternational airport.
然而四天之后阿德里安就不得不回洛杉矶了,因为拉弗恩打来电话提醒他参加周末在巴卡拉酒店举办的派对,作为公司的老板以及《两杆大烟枪》和《记忆碎片》的导演和制作人,阿德里安不可能推辞,更何况在派对上还有重要的事情。所以即使两人都觉得意犹未尽,可还是在希思罗国际机场吻别了。„Hello, Mr.Adrian, seesyoureallyhappily.”GaveAdrian of entrancewaiterjustto enter the great hall the car(riage)key, the dullgreat hallmanagerherewarmlywelcomed.
“你好,阿德里安先生,真高兴见到你。”将车钥匙交给门口侍者的阿德里安刚走进大堂,正呆在这里的大堂经理就热情的迎了上来。„Hi, Mabuse, recently?”Adrianwith a smile and opposite partygreets, because of the time of thatfooling around, the managers in Los Angelestheserenownedhotelsalmostallknew that this is also a personal connection.
“嗨,马布斯,最近好吗?”阿德里安笑着和对方打着招呼,因为那段鬼混的时间,洛杉矶那些著名酒店的经理几乎全认识他这也算是一种人脉吧。„Old style,”Mabuseshrugs, „whathasmeto helpyour? Todayyouas if......”
“老样子,”马布斯耸了耸肩,“有什么我可以帮你的吗?今天你似乎……”Hesomewhataccidentallooked atAdrian, Adrianknowshiminthinkinganythingprobably, althoughsomewhatdoes not know whether to laugh or cryactuallynot to revealon the face.
他有些意外的看了看阿德里安的身后,阿德里安大概知道他心里在想什么,虽然有些哭笑不得却没有在脸上表露出来。„Anything, Ihave not had a meetinghere, bluehallsinsevenbuildings.”Adrianexplainedsimply.
“没什么,我在这里有个聚会,就在七楼的蓝厅。”阿德里安简单的解释了些。„Bluehall?”HowMabuseas the great hallmanagercannot knowparticipates in the bluehallpolyisanyperson, hesomewhataccidentalhas raised the eyebrow, in the recentoneyearhas not seenthisdandy, howchangedhas resembledprobablypersonally. Naturally, person who hasmeaningful glanceasone, hisnotloquacity, after nod of maintaining composure, letone side.
“蓝厅?”马布斯作为大堂经理怎么会不知道参加蓝厅的聚是些什么人,他不由有些意外的扬了扬眉,近一年时间没见到这位花花公子,怎么好像变了个人似的。当然,作为一个有眼色的人,他是不会多话的,不动声色的点点头后让到了一边。Adrianhas not spokenagain, after having patted the shoulder of sycophancybooth, walksin the elevatordirection. Arrived atsevenbuildingsquickly, faced each otheroutsidewaiterto report the name, heenteredhas sentto the bluehall that juststarted.阿德里安也没再说话,拍了拍马布斯的肩膀后往电梯方向走去。很快来到了七楼,对门外的侍者报了姓名,他走进了派对刚刚开始的蓝厅。

整个蓝厅的人不多也不少,都3322的端着杯子相互交谈着,大部分都是博斯沃思电影公司的职员,其他的则是邀请的客人:12线的男女明星,各个公司的制作人、导演等等。Sendstoisin the Americanlife the essentialpart, thesehaveto sendto the fellow of animaltitleoften an eveningto catch up withseveralnot to thinktired.

Therefore, sendstosometimesis the importantsocial occasion, toknowing and developmentpersonal connectionis quite helpful, among the honored guest who for exampleat the tonight'spartyinvites the globalpersonhas occupiedmuch.
派对是美国人生活中不可缺少的一部分,那些有着派对动物称号的家伙往往一晚上连赶几场都不会觉得累。不过派对也不仅仅是用来狂欢的,那些慈善晚宴、政治募捐晚宴、名流聚会等等都可以归纳到派对这个定义当中来。所以,派对在某些时候是重要的社交场合,对结识和发展人脉相当有帮助,比如今晚的派对上邀请的嘉宾当中环球的人占了不少。„Hi, Ide, youcamelate.”BoehlandtEwenhas discoveredAdrianfirst, hewalkedsmilinglycameandAdrianshook hand.
“嗨,艾德,你来晚了。”伯兰特厄温最先发现了阿德里安,他笑容可掬的走了过来和阿德里安握了握手。„Sorry thatIneedto adjust the time difference, in addition the timetraffic conditionis notverygood.”Adrianshrugged, has sweptall aroundone, „looked like, Ishouldnot belatestthat.”
“很抱歉,我需要调整时差,加上来的时候交通情况也不是很好。”阿德里安耸了耸肩,扫了四周一眼,“看起来,我应该不是最晚的那个。”„Youwill not be disappointed.”Boehlandtknows that heinthinkinganything, has pattedhisarm , after with a smiledrawshimto arrive in front of a roughly45andsix -year-old middle-aged person.
“你不会失望的。”伯兰特知道他在想什么,笑着拍了拍他的胳膊后拉着他来到一位约莫45、六岁的中年人面前。„Thisisourgeneral managerElainemanygentlemen.”Saying that Boehlandtintroduced.
“这是我们的总经理伊莱恩埃多先生。”伯兰特介绍的说道。„Seesyouvery muchhappily, Egyptianmanygentlemen.”Adrianis smilingputting out a hand.
“很高兴见到你,埃多先生。”阿德里安微笑着伸出了手。„I am also, Cauvillemister, youcancallmyElaine.” The opposite partyis having the similarsmile, „, althoughIknow that youare very young, may unable to bearwas startledgreatly, nowis the world of young people?”
“我也是,科威尔先生,你可以叫我伊莱恩。”对方带着同样的微笑,“虽然我知道你很年轻,可还是忍不住大吃了一惊,现在已经是年轻人的世界了吗?”„The smallresult, myalsoneeddiligentlyline of youcancallmeAdrian.”
“只是一点小小的成绩,我还需要更加努力才行你可以叫我阿德里安。”„Thisis not the smallresult, Adrian, whichdirectoralmostdoes not haveto be ableinoneyearinproduces the movies of twolow costhighbox offices, moreoverattains the award itemat the differentfilm festivals, excessivelymodestisproud.”
“这可不是小小的成绩,阿德里安,几乎没有哪个导演能在一年的时间里制作出两部低成本高票房的电影,而且还在不同的电影节上拿到奖项,过分的谦虚就是骄傲。”„Itold the facts, Elaine, Idid not deny that hisresultwas very good, butI will therefore not disregard the merit of otherpeople. Withoutmymanufactureteam, does not havethatoutstandinggeneral manager, does not have the globalrelease, withoutall these, could makesuchprogress not necessarilyto add.”
“我只是实话实说,伊莱恩,我不否认自己的成绩很不错,但我不会因此无视其他人的功劳。没有我的制作团队,没有那位出色的总经理,没有环球的发行,没有这一切,能否取得这样成绩还说不一定呢。”Theyhave flatteredandprobedmutually, thenElainesaid goodbyeto leavetemporarily, was stayingin the nearbyBoehlandthad walkedimmediately: „It looks like youchatsalsowell.”
两人相互吹捧和试探了一番,然后伊莱恩暂时告辞离开了,一直在附近呆着的伯兰特随即又走了过来:“看起来你们聊得还不错。”„Indeed, round the worldhas an outstandinggeneral manager, makingmelearnmanythings,”Adriannoddedtohim, „was right, Boehlandt, I have not congratulatedyouto be promoted with all attendant honor the divisional managers.”
“的确,环球有位出色的总经理,让我学到了不少东西,”阿德里安对他点了点头,“对了,伯兰特,我还没恭喜你荣升部门经理呢。”„Iam only the luckam good,”Boehlandtshrugs, „has run intoyouby chance.”
“我只是运气好,”伯兰特耸了耸肩,“恰巧遇到了你。”Theylook at each otherone, thenhas smiledin pairs. Each otheris clear, iflooks angrily atround the world, only thenBoehlandtcontinuouslyandAdrianhas had to do, Boehlandtis impossibleto appeartodayhere.
两人对视一眼,然后双双笑了起来。彼此都清楚,如果怒视环球只有伯兰特一直和阿德里安打过交道,伯兰特今天不可能出现在这里。„Spoke frankly, whichmovie did youwantmeto direct? «StartledSoundScream»? «American Pie»?”Adrianno longercircles, askedstraightforwardly.
“直说吧,你们想要我执导哪部电影?《惊声尖叫》?还是《美国派》?”阿德里安不再兜圈子,直截了当的问了出来。„No matter whatyouselect,”Boehlandtspreads out the hand, „the initial work of twomovieshave preparedsimilarly, whichyouwantto direct, ifhasanyopinionin other actororaspect, momentarilycanraise.”
“任你挑,”伯兰特摊开手,“两部电影的前期工作都已经准备得差不多了,你想执导哪一部都可以,如果在演员或者别的方面有什么意见,随时可以提出来。”„Really isgenerous, believes that manypeoplewill not have rejected.”Adriansmiled, canletround the worldpledgessuchconditionno doubtwithhiminoneyearproducetworeputationbox officegoodmoviesto be related, the script that alsosoldwithbeforewas related.
“真是慷慨,相信没多少人会拒绝吧。”阿德里安笑了笑,能让环球开出这样的条件固然和他在一年的时间制作了两部口碑票房都不错的电影有关,也和之前卖出去的剧本有关。For examplesold toglobalcampuscomedy«10 Things I Hate About You», screens at the end of January, obtained42 millionbox officesat10 millionovercosts. Otherfilm companiesmore or lesshave gained similarly alsoexcept forWarner, but of Warnerinvites«Bodyguard» that WhitneyHoustonandKevin Costnerplayaccording to the prompt that Adrianleaves behind, becausealthoughinvestsquitein a big waytoachieve the desired effectadjusts this year'ssummer vacationfiles, mayparticipateto take a look that most people of meetingthoughtverysplendidly.
比如卖给环球的校园喜剧《我恨你的十件事》,在今年1月底上映的时候,以10000000出头的成本获得了42000000的票房。其他电影公司除了华纳同样也都或多或少的赚了一些,而华纳的那部根据阿德里安留下的提示邀请惠特尼休斯顿和凯文科斯特纳出演的《保镖》,虽然因为投资比较大为了达到最佳效果而调整到了今年的暑假档,可参加试看会的大部分人都认为非常精彩。Therefore, component of Adrianineachfilm companyhigh-leveleyewas heavier, is considered asonis the advantage of being close to somebodyglobalnaturallycanwant to further win overhim.
因此,阿德里安在各个电影公司高层眼中的分量就更重了,算得上是近水楼台的环球自然会想要进一步拉拢他。„Said that youdid comply?”Boehlandtis busy atasking.
“这么说你答应了?”伯兰特忙问道。„Sorry, Boehlandt, althoughthisconditionis very attractive, butIhadotherto arrange.”Adrianshakes the head the rejection saying that the feeling of winning overlooks uprelativelyinsufficientlyalsoby far.
“很抱歉,伯兰特,虽然这个条件很诱人,可我已经有其他安排了。”阿德里安摇头拒绝道,拉拢的感觉相对仰视还远远不够呢。„Istillrememberedlast yearduring the stay in London, youoncehad saidtome, nobodycanunderstandyourscriptcompared withyou.”Continuationpersuasion that Boehlandtdoes not lose heart.
“我还记得去年在伦敦的时候,你曾对我说过,没有人能比你更了解你的剧本了。”伯兰特不死心的继续劝说。„Was sorryreallyvery much, Boehlandt, when if otherIdefinitelywill consider, butIcurrentlyhadotherhave arranged.”Adriansinceresaying, „a newmoviealreadyinarrangement.”
“真的很抱歉,伯兰特,如果是其他什么时候我肯定会考虑,但我现在已经有了别的安排了。”阿德里安诚恳的说道,“一部新电影已经在筹备当中了。”Like this, Boehlandtdid not sayanything, after all the opposite partyhasownfilm company.
都这样了,伯兰特也不好说什么,毕竟对方有着自己的电影公司。„Newmovie? Yourenergymaybe really abundant, under the secondworkdid not have the cotton suiting.”Saying that heridicules, „good, thatthis, hopes that latercanhave the opportunitycooperation.”
“新电影?你的精力可真充沛,第二部作品还没下线呢。”他揶揄的说道,“好吧,那就这样吧,希望以后能有机会合作。”„Perhapsnowcancooperate,”Adrianalsosaidsuddenly, „justby another waycooperation.”
“也许现在就可以合作,”阿德里安忽然又说道,“只不过是以另一种方式合作。”„Another way?”Boehlandt'spuzzledasking.
“另一种方式?”伯兰特不解的问道。„Perhaps is mynewmoviemuch bigger than the beforehandtwoinvestments, round the worldcanconsiderto participate?”Adrianlooks atBoehlandtwith smile on the face.
“我的新电影比之前两部的投资要大得多,也许环球可以考虑参加?”阿德里安面带微笑的看着伯兰特。Boehlandteyesimmediatelyonebright: „Icanknow that whatmovieyoudo planto produce?”
伯兰特眼睛顿时一亮:“我可以知道你打算制作什么样的电影吗?”„A feature film, scriptreorganizationfrom the Stephen King'smedium-lengthstories«DifferentSeason»secondnovel: «Redemption of RiittaHaihuaSilkAndShawshankPrison».”Adrianat a moderate pacesaying.
“一部剧情片,剧本改编自斯蒂芬金的中篇小说集《不同的季节》的第二篇小说:《丽塔海华丝及肖申克监狱的救赎》。”阿德里安不紧不慢的说道。„Has not thoughtreallyyouhaveStephen King'sideaunexpectedly,”Boehlandtexclaims, „Ithink that ImustchatwithMr.Elainefirst, Ide, butIbelievethis should notanyissue.”
“真没想到你居然打起斯蒂芬金的主意,”伯兰特惊叹道,“我想我得先跟伊莱恩先生谈谈,艾德,但我相信这应该没什么问题。”„Ialsobelieve.”Adriannodded, before having«Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels» and «Memento»twoworksas well asseveralscripts, obtains the investment of globallike thisbigcompanyis the easymatter.
“我也相信。”阿德里安点了点头,有《两杆大烟枪》和《记忆碎片》两部作品以及之前的数个剧本,得到环球这样的大公司的投资是轻而易举的事情。Does not know that theyafterlosscanbe what kind ofexpression. Adrianinsotalked overoneat heart. Although«Shawshank'sRedemption»is known asinhistory the most perfectmovie, moreover basicallycan handlethistitle, but onlyfewpeopleknowthatthisinvestmentwas less than30 million about 25 millionUS dollarsmovieinitialbox office.
只是,不知道他们在亏损之后会是怎样的一副表情。阿德里安在心里如此念叨了一句。虽然《肖申克的救赎》号称史上最完美的电影,而且也基本上当得起这个称号,但只有很少的人知道,这部投资在25000000美元左右的电影当初的票房不到30000000。
