„Mr. Jenkins, what view do you attain 72.05 million US dollars North American box offices to " Toy Story 2 » first weeks?” “詹金斯先生,你对《玩具总动员二》首周拿到7205万美元的北美票房有什么看法？” The reporters and paparazzi stopped up Ryan in front of the Jenkins film company building with great difficulty, goes forward to inquire, „«Toy Story 2» created the animated film highest first week box office to record in history, how you think at that time purchased Pixar Studio?” 记者和狗仔们好不容易在詹金斯影业的楼前堵住了瑞恩,纷纷上前提问,“《玩具总动员二》创造了动画电影有史以来最高的首周票房纪录,你当时是怎么想到收购皮克斯工作室的？” „70 million US dollars are truly scary, but I think that «Toy Story 2», Pixar Studio can be joined to such result, not?” “7000万美元确实很吓人,但我想《玩具总动员二》,还有皮克斯工作室配得上这样的成绩,不是吗？” Ryan stopped the footsteps slightly, was replying simply reporter's inquiry, „we were always saying, so long as can succeed diligently, Pixar Studio tried hard for 20 years for the computer animation, their successes are not accidental, but inevitably, as for the initial purchase, I had said many were times, I favor their efforts, is such simple.” 瑞恩稍稍停住了脚步,简单的回答着记者的提问,“一直以来我们都在说,只要努力就能获得成功,皮克斯工作室为电脑动画努力了二十年,他们的成功不是偶然,而是必然,至于当初的收购,我已经说过很多次了,我看好他们的努力,就是这么简单。” „Ryan, as far as we know, the box office of sale and movie of peripheral product is equally hot, you in what know-how has?” Also some reporters inquired loudly. “瑞恩,据我们所知,周边产品的销售跟电影的票房一样火爆,请问你们在其中有什么窍门吗？”又有记者高声提问。 „Know-how?” Ryan smiled, said by the joke -type tone intentionally, „the biggest know-how is......” “窍门？”瑞恩笑了起来,故意以玩笑式的口吻说道,“最大的窍门就是……” The ears of all reporters set upright, before confused and noisy building, silent incomparable. 所有记者的耳朵都竖了起来,噪杂的楼前寂静无比。 „I shell out, bought puppet of one set of toys for the person of each understanding.” “我自掏腰包,为每一个认识的人买了一套玩具们的玩偶。” The joke said, Ryan entered the office building under protecting and sustaining of bodyguard, no longer pays attention to following troubled. 玩笑话说完,瑞恩就在保镖的护持下走进了办公楼,不再理睬后面的纷纷扰扰。 Honestly speaking, " Toy Story 2 » first weeks can attain such box office record, not only stemmed from Pixar Studio to expect, even Ryan have not thought, such result almost guaranteed the movie depended upon the North American box office to recoup the cost, but, after Thanksgiving Day the vacation and first passed in the weekend, the second week box office will definitely present the big quota the decline range. 坦白地讲,《玩具总动员二》首周能拿到如此的票房成绩,不但出乎皮克斯工作室所料,连瑞恩自己都没有想到,这样的成绩几乎确保了影片依靠北美票房就能收回成本,不过,感恩节假期和首个周末过去后,第二周票房肯定会出现大额度的跌幅。 This is the natural law of entertainment movie. 这是娱乐电影的自然规律。 The rarity can treat very long time in Jenkins film company, Ryan sits in the office. Is glancing over the company following manufacture plan. 难得能在詹金斯影业待很长的时间,瑞恩坐在办公室里。浏览着公司接下来的制作计划。 After various high-grossing TV serial movies screened, the manufacture of sequel put on the agenda one after another, the first volume of Director majority also signed later Director contract, replaced the sequel manufacture of Director is only «Mission: Impossible 2», at present pigeon? Wu positive/correct brings the dramatic team to be on location, if as expected, this will be he in the Hollywood final magnificence. 在各部卖座的系列片先后上映之后,续集的制作陆续提上了日程,第一集的导演大部分也签下了随后的导演合约,唯一更换了导演的续集制作就是《碟中谍二》了,目前白鸽?吴正带着剧组在出外景,如果不出意外,这将是他在好莱坞最后的辉煌。 In order to guarantee the success of movie, for a pigeon? Wu Zuihou that material squeezes, Ryan gave him simply the final editing power, this to Chinese Director of Hollywood. Simply is the thing that has a dream wants to obtain. 为了保证电影的成功,也为了把白鸽?吴最后的那点料压榨出来,瑞恩干脆给了他最终剪辑权,这对好莱坞的华人导演来说。简直就是做梦都想得到的东西。 The news feeds in Hong Kong, caused the huge stir, in addition Jack? Chen, Alone? Li and other actors, as well as Yuen Woo-ping and Cheng Xiaodong and other movement instruction teams, the Hong Kong movie circle instantaneous confidence bursting, many media are promoting the Hong Kong movie to conquer Hollywood, the Hong Kong movie can definitely get rid of the trough. 消息传回香港,引起了巨大的轰动,加上杰克?陈,杰特?李等演员,以及袁和平和程小东等动作指导团队,香港电影界瞬间信心爆棚,很多媒体都在鼓吹香港电影征服了好莱坞,香港电影肯定能摆脱低谷。 What a pity, this is only their wishful thinking. Now seems like that the scenery Hollywood Hong Kong film-maker will soon go home, but the Hong Kong movie has been close from the death infinitely. 可惜,这只是他们的一厢情愿。现在看似风光的好莱坞香港电影人用不了多久就会打道回府,而香港电影距离死亡已经无限接近了。 Actually, incessantly is Ryan and Jenkins film company, Hollywood slightly a little man of great vision. Is absorbing their strong points, then transforms as part of Hollywood culture, after thing squeezing when has them to limit, naturally no longer needed these people. 其实,不止是瑞恩和詹金斯影业,好莱坞稍稍有点远见的人。都在吸收他们的长处,然后转化为好莱坞文化的一部分,等到把他们具备的东西压榨到极限后,自然就不再需要这些人了。 Naturally. So long as they can also make money for themselves, these movie makers including Ryan, will still give their favorable contracts. 当然。只要他们还能为自己赚钱,包括瑞恩在内的这些制片商,依然会给他们优厚的合同。 To stay in Hollywood. That must fuse in the mainstream culture of Hollywood on own initiative, the outstanding student who Ang Lee this New York University graduates, is intelligent, but other that this aspect does come to Hollywood, especially film-maker from Hong Kong, but also is retaining strong Hong Kong movie that old style conduct, this style regarding being fastidious about assembly line manufacture Hollywood, without the least bit use. 想要留在好莱坞。那就要主动融合进好莱坞的主流文化中,李安这个纽约大学毕业的高材生,在这方面做的就非常聪明,而其他来到好莱坞,特别是来自香港的电影人,还保留着浓重的香港电影那种老式的做派,这种风格对于讲究流水线制作的好莱坞来说,没有半点用处。 Last year time, did Brother Wachowski pick Alone? Li, wants the guardian angel that invited him to play the prophet, who knows that the opposite party wanted 3 million US dollars salary, but such a lens limited role took 3 million US dollars salary, Harvey Weinstein to never imagine to overrule this candidate, did this have the tiger? Chen's guardian angel. 去年的时候,沃卓斯基兄弟相中了杰特?李,想要邀请他出演先知的守护天使,谁知道对方要出了三百万美元的片酬,而这样一个镜头有限的角色要三百万美元的片酬,哈维?韦恩斯坦想都没想就否决了这个人选,这才有了老虎?陈的守护天使。 Hollywood's movie maker, especially Jenkins film company, easily can draw for own movie to the big investments, is actually not the fool. 好莱坞的制片商,特别是詹金斯影业,轻易就能为自己的电影拉到大笔的投资,却不是冤大头。 After duo duo knock, Scott Swift walked, under hint of Ryan, he sat on the desk opposite chair, after a female secretary has gotten up the coffee, two people directly entered the subject. 咄咄的敲门声之后,斯科特?斯威夫特走了进来,在瑞恩的示意下,他坐在了办公桌对面的椅子上,等一位女秘书上过咖啡后,两人直接进入了正题。 „The «Toy Story 2» large amount of first week box office and hot peripheral sales, drove fast rising of Pixar stock, the investor is confident, many people even think Pixar, so long as insists, said that will not permit to create the Cisco -type myth.” Scott said under Pixar's stock situation simply, „, since the movie opens, the single laid rise in price surpassed 15%.” “《玩具总动员二》的巨额首周票房和火爆的周边产品销售,带动了皮克斯股票的快速上扬,投资者信心十足,很多人甚至认为皮克斯只要坚持下去,说不准就会创造思科式的神话。”斯科特简单说了下皮克斯的股票情况,“自电影上映后,单股价格上涨超过了百分之十五。” „This under control?” Ryan frowns, Pixar is truly successful, but the stock price rises was too rather quick? “这种情况正常吗？”瑞恩皱起了眉头,皮克斯确实很成功,但股价上涨的未免太快了吧？ „Now in the market hung up one piece to pay, but rarely saw that some people produced goods.” Scott is taking away the arm rest of chair slowly, „according to Ed? Qamrul responded, some people are contacting their several, tests them to make a move the meaning of Pixar stock, was rejected by them.” “现在市场上挂起了一片买单,但很少看到有人出货。”斯科特缓缓扣着椅子的扶手,“据艾德?卡姆尔反应,有人正在接触他们几个,试探他们是不是有出手皮克斯股份的意思,被他们拒绝了。” Ryan nods, this is very normal, Ed? Qamrul and John Lasseter and the others, almost regarded oneself child Pixar Studio, only if there are reason that is unable to reject, otherwise easily cannot the stock in making a move hand. 瑞恩点了点头,这很正常,艾德?卡姆尔和约翰?拉赛特等人,几乎把皮克斯工作室当成了自己的孩子,除非有无法拒绝的理由,否则轻易不会出手手里的股份。 „Also, Ryan.” Scott raised another company, „France's Vivendi Group, sent out to us in private application that purchases the Blizzard entertainment, their offers surpassed 13% of Blizzard entertainment market value.” “还有,瑞恩。”斯科特提起了另外一个公司,“法国的维旺迪集团,私下向我们发出了收购暴雪娱乐的申请,他们的出价超过了暴雪娱乐市值的百分之十三。” If not want to trigger a purchase war, the premium purchase without doubt is the most appropriate method, Vivendi Group two years ago starts, showed the strong interest in the Blizzard entertainment, but Ryan has not nodded, he knows that Blizzard also had a distance from the most magnificent time, now sells out it, do oneself become the second Steve? Jobs. 如果不想引发一场收购大战,溢价收购无疑是最合适的方法,维旺迪集团从两年前开始,就对暴雪娱乐展现出了浓厚的兴趣,但瑞恩始终没有点过头,他知道暴雪距离最为辉煌的时刻还有段距离,现在卖掉它,自己岂不是成为了第二个史蒂夫?乔布斯。 Until today, Steve? Jobs Pixar Studio reselling to Ryan, but also was regarded the joke to regard. 直到今天,史蒂夫?乔布斯把皮克斯工作室转卖给瑞恩,还被人当成笑话在看待。 Founder of this Apple, after lacking Pixar Studio this springboard, had not returned Apple, but lacked his apple, still took the development path of previous generation. 这位苹果的创始人,在缺少皮克斯工作室这块跳板后,一直没有重新回到苹果公司,而缺少了他的苹果,依然走上了前世的发展道路。 This iron general fact is also reminding Ryan, must maintain the sober mind frequently, Earth lacked everybody to rotate. 这铁一般的事实也在提醒着瑞恩,要时刻保持清醒的头脑,地球缺了谁都会转动。 „Ryan, your view?” Scott in some Blizzard also many stocks, to offer of Vivendi somewhat excited. “瑞恩,你的看法呢？”斯科特在暴雪也有不少股份,对维旺迪的出价有些心动。 After all, their main industries in movie, sell out the obtained income the Blizzard entertainment now, has dozens times that invested initially fully. 毕竟,他们的主产业还是在电影方面,现在把暴雪娱乐卖掉所获得的收益,足有当初投资的数十倍之多。 „We are short of money, Scott.” Ryan drank a coffee, placed on the cup the table slowly, „I think, now we do not lack is the fund?” “我们缺钱吗,斯科特。”瑞恩喝了口咖啡,缓缓把杯子放在了桌子上,“我想,我们现在不缺少的就是资金吧？” „Truly, our non- knockout product or competitive products.” “确实,我们不缺少流动资金。” After selling the big quota stock of Yahoo ! and Cisco, besides investing in Google and purchased few Disney stocks, the big funds could not find the investment now the direction. 卖出雅虎和思科的大额度股份后,除了投资谷歌和购买了少量的迪士尼股份外,大笔的资金现在还找不到投资的方向。 „I heard that Blizzard is preparing to distribute «Diablo 2», next step must start «Warcraft 3», the Blizzard entertainment is also far from reaching its peak, at this time acted absolutely is not the wise choice.” Ryan shakes the head, „rejects Vivendi......, stays behind leeway that some future will negotiate.” “我听说暴雪正在准备发行《暗黑破坏神二》,下一步就要启动《魔兽争霸三》,暴雪娱乐还远远没有达到它的高峰,这时候出手绝对不是明智的选择。”瑞恩摇了摇头,“拒绝维旺迪……嗯,留下些将来谈判的余地。” „I understand.” Nod of Scott approves. “我明白。”斯科特赞同的点了头。 „Also, Scott, finding the way to press Blizzard and Pixar's stock price, do not let them rise is too quick.” Remembers next year's that stock disaster, some Ryan also headaches, the listed company under oneself name, will definitely be affected, at present also can only be reduces to as far as possible slightly the impact, „before the end of the year, lets go of the surplus it stocks as far as possible.” “还有,斯科特,想办法压一下暴雪和皮克斯的股价,别让它们涨的太快。”想起明年的那场股灾,瑞恩也有些头疼,自己名下的上市公司,肯定也会受到影响,目前也只能是尽量把冲击减到最小,“年底之前,尽量把剩余的it股脱手。” Packed off Scott, Ryan put the matter about financial one side, after all he was the group bystander, had Scott this expert, also did not need extremely in being worried. 送走了斯科特,瑞恩把关于金融方面的事情放到了一边,毕竟他是行外人,有斯科特这个好手在,也不用太过于担心。 Drinks up one cup of coffee, Ryan opens the documents on notebook, struck slowly, «Caribbean Pirate» completed last month, had given Zhu Lisi, so long as the conditions be ripe will initiate a project officially, but what he writes was the American Idol that all the people competition flow. 喝完一杯咖啡,瑞恩打开笔记本上的文档,缓缓敲打了起来,《加勒比海盗》在上个月就完成了,已经交给了朱丽斯,只要时机成熟就会正式立项,而他写着的正是美国偶像那种全民选秀活动的流程。 Garcia dispatches several people in Britain, after a series of short investigations, basically determined Britain has not planned such competition, Ryan not many that things that in the mind remember, hurried to write. 加西亚派往英国的几个人,经过一系列的短暂调查后,基本确定英国方面还没有策划这样的选秀活动,瑞恩则把脑海里记得的不多的那点东西,赶紧写了出来。 Actually, such similar competition, had long existed in North America, does not have the operation of standardization. 其实,这样类似的选秀活动,在北美早就存在了,却没有规范化的运作。 For example the Mickey Mouse club competition of Disney, in the United States range, selects the right young people actor and singer, but this competition for competition but competition, not interaction with audience, will not move the television station, not to mention like hyping the star established the backing group and other at sixes and sevens methods. 比如迪士尼的米奇老鼠俱乐部选秀,就是在全美范围内,甄选合适的青少年演员和歌手,但这种选秀只是为了选秀而选秀,没有跟观众的互动,也不会搬上电视台,更不用说如同炒作明星般建立后援团等乱七八糟的手段了。 Ryan needs to put out the related creativity and flow as soon as possible, starts the broad cooperation with Fox TV Station, then registers to become own patent and brand it, even if will go bankrupt in the future, by the copyright of American Idol, can free and unrestrained. 瑞恩需要尽快拿出相关的创意和流程,跟福克斯电视台展开广泛的合作,然后把它注册成为自己的专利和品牌,哪怕是日后自己破产了,凭借美国偶像的版权,也可以逍遥自在的过下去。 Because did not determine that Britain plans the time of this program, Ryan needs is quick, turns into own thing it as soon as possible, he already prepared for by oneself lawyer and broker team, so long as improves the good plan, will around the world register. 由于不确定英国方面策划这个节目的时间,瑞恩需要的就是快,尽快把它变成自己的东西,他已经让自己的律师和经纪团队做好了准备,只要完善好方案,就会在全世界范围内进行注册。 Right, should oneself the purchase record company, sign the top several singers? 对了,自己是不是应该收购家唱片公司,把取得前几名的歌手签下来？ Taylor, later that is will be all the rage the money tree of the world...... 还有泰勒,以后那可是会风靡全球的摇钱树…… Thinks that the blonde small quiff, Ryan shakes the head, if oneself these people become the owner of record company, with her rascal personality, definitely gaining has money to take away...... 想到金发小卷毛,瑞恩不禁摇了摇头,如果自己这些人成为了唱片公司的主人,以她的无赖性格,肯定会把赚到的所有钱都拿走…… Also, oneself have the plan, so long as succeeds will have the complete industry chain, only need do is other years.( To be continued..) 再说了,自己已经有了规划,只要成功将会有完整的产业链,唯一要做的就是等几年。(未完待续。。)
