Ze Tower? Jones is raising glass to here distantly, he responded, this continues saying that „1 million US dollars, buy out all copyrights.” “没错。”瑞恩点了点头,远处的凯瑟琳?泽塔?琼斯正对这边遥遥举杯,他回应了一下,这才继续说道,“一百万美元,买断所有的版权。” „Present environment, although was more loose, but......” “现在的环境虽然宽松了一些,但是……” Touched under the cup with the big fatty, Ryan smiled, „is not now, waits again for several years.” 跟大胖子碰了下杯,瑞恩笑了起来,“不是现在,再等几年。” The present homosexuality movement is getting more and more active, Harvey Weinstein also knows this point, after nodding, changed the topic, „I bought out that movie of copyright to screen in China, it is said the reputation was not very good, but the box office was good.” 如今的同性恋运动越来越活跃,哈维?韦恩斯坦也知道这一点,点了点头后,换了话题,“我买断了版权的那部电影在中国上映了,据说口碑不是很好,不过票房却不错。” „These do not need to care, so long as it can bring the income for us......” “这些都不用在乎,只要它能为我们带来收益……” At this point, some people walk to greet, in the hand that Ryan in the opposite party extends grasped, „long time no see, Michael.” 说到这里,又有人走过来打招呼,瑞恩在对方伸过来的手上握了一下,“好久不见了,迈克尔。” „Yes, Ryan.” Michael? Douglas said several flattery, „has not congratulated you, your movie sells one after another greatly, the entire Hollywood is envying you.” “是啊,瑞恩。”迈克尔?道格拉斯笑着说了几句恭维话,“还没有恭喜你呢,你的电影接连大卖,全好莱坞都在羡慕你呢。” „Is good that the propaganda of Disney makes.” “是迪士尼的宣传做的好。” Polite, Ryan shook another hand that under handed over, said to the dark-haired woman who raised glass a moment ago, „Madame Douglas...... good, Kate, your performance in " Chicago » is good.” 客气了一句,瑞恩又握了下递过来的另一只手,对刚才举杯的黑发女人说道,“道格拉斯夫人……好吧,凯特,你在《芝加哥》中的演出非常棒。” „Thanks, Ryan.” She smiles exceptionally brightly, „I prepare to attack the Oscar best supporting actress with her.” “谢谢,瑞恩。”她笑得异常灿烂,“我准备用她来冲击奥斯卡最佳女配角呢。” „, Kate, are you garnering votes?” “哦,凯特,你这是在拉票吗？” Harvey Weinstein and Michael? After Douglas has shaken hand, played a joke in a low voice. 哈维?韦恩斯坦与迈克尔?道格拉斯握过手后,不禁低声开了句玩笑。 The surrounding several people smiled. 周围的几个人都笑了起来。 This situation basically is used for the human relations, nearby the surrounding person diverges gradually, waits was only left over them the time, Harvey Weinstein looks to Douglas and his wife of going far away. 这种场合基本就是用来交际的,周围的人渐渐散去,等附近只剩下了他们两个人的时候,哈维?韦恩斯坦看向了远去的道格拉斯夫妇。 „Very intelligent sensible woman.” He said to Ryan. “非常聪明懂事的女人。”他如此对瑞恩说道。 „Comes to Hollywood, can stand firmly......” Ryan to look at that side one, received the vision, „arrived at a position gradually, will not definitely lack the mind.” “来到好莱坞,能站住脚……”瑞恩看了那边一眼,就把目光收了回来,“又渐渐走到了一线的位置,肯定不会缺少头脑。” „Her role, even if reports the best actress, finished the nomination might be still big.” Harvey Weinstein returned, has taken two cups of sodas from attendant there, after handing over one cup , to continue saying that „where she knows our goals.” “她的角色,就算是申报最佳女主角,获得提名的可能也很大。”哈维?韦恩斯坦转回了头来,从侍应生那里取过两杯苏打,递过来一杯后,继续说道,“她知道我们的目标在哪里。” Ryan smiles, did not have to say anything. 瑞恩只是笑了笑,却没有在说什么。 Katherine? Ze Tower? Jones chose to be Madame Douglas, but also ate stubbornly this established dandy, these proved her mind sufficiently. 凯瑟琳?泽塔?琼斯选择做了道格拉斯夫人,还将这个老牌花花公子吃得死死的,这些足以证明她的头脑了。 „Taylor?” After the Harvey Weinstein head transferred one, asked that „sent to starting, I noticed that you led her to come in together.” “泰勒呢？”哈维?韦恩斯坦脑袋转了一圈后,问道,“派对开始的时候,我看到你带着她一起进来的。” „She has oneself small group.” Ryan looked that to place that in the banquet hall the young girl gathered, can see the golden hair of slim figure and tune volume indistinctly, „leads Emma? Watson went to the human relations, wanted to introduce this circle her probably.” “她有自己的小圈子。”瑞恩看向了宴会厅中年轻女孩聚集的地方,隐约可以见到瘦高的身材和曲卷的金发,“带着艾玛?沃特森去交际了,大概想要将她介绍进这个圈子。” „Had her recommending, definitely is not the issue.” “有了她的引荐,肯定不是问题。” Harvey Weinstein person who follows to greet after another, said, „I greeted the guest.” 哈维?韦恩斯坦跟又一个走过来的人打了招呼后,说道,“我去招呼客人了。” Ryan nods, arrives at the rest area, looked to be able to see Taylor's place, sat at a small table. 瑞恩点了点头,走到休息区,找了个能看到泰勒的地方,坐在了一张小桌旁。 By the Taylor this life environment, the skilled interpersonal skills are the most basic quality, in fact with growing older, in unusual is splendid, when facing these that in this point she does is not very close person, she is a perfect virtuous young woman. 以泰勒今世所处的环境,熟练的交际能力是最为基本的素质,实际上随着年龄的增大,在这一点上她做的非常出色,面对这些不是很亲密的人时,她就是个完美的淑女。 Like Victoria? Beckham is the same, without the intimate friend introduced, wants to infiltrate the upper class of Hollywood is not easy, especially looks like Emma? Watson's such outcomer. 如同维多利亚?贝克汉姆一样,如果没有亲近的朋友介绍,想要打入好莱坞的上流阶层并不容易,特别是像艾玛?沃特森这样的外来者。 To put it bluntly, this vanity fair , is not only wanton and luxurious living, but also is extremely snobbish. 说白了,这个名利场不但纸醉金迷,还极其势利。 „Sits, Xueli.” “坐,雪莉。” Looks at the Paramount head, Ryan put out a hand to hint under opposite seat, „heard that you were «Mission: Impossible 3» select new Director?” 看着走过来的派拉蒙负责人,瑞恩伸手示意了下对面的座位,“听说你们在为《碟中谍三》甄选新的导演？” „Yes.” “是啊。” After she sits down, waved to come two cups of fruit juice to the attendant, „replaced Director to the choice, Paramount could not undertake the failure that so invested greatly.” 她坐下后,向侍应生招手要来了两杯果汁,“更换导演是必须的选择,派拉蒙承担不起如此大投资的失败。” Then, Xueli? Lansing lifts the cup to here, „Ryan, to MGM interested?” 说完,雪莉?兰辛向这边举了举杯子,“瑞恩,对米高梅有兴趣吗？” „MGM?” The Ryan knitting the brows head, understands her meaning, „MGM does have the meaning of sell?” “米高梅？”瑞恩皱了皱眉头,明白了她的意思,“米高梅有出售的意思吗？” „Almost, looked at the price.” “差不多吧,就看价钱了。” Is saw probably Ryan is not understood, Xueli? Lansing explained simply, John who „MGM invests? Wu's «Wind Language», 115 million US dollars production costs, only attained 40 million US dollars box office, have not sold out the peripheral television broadcast and dvd copyright to the present, are counted over 50 million US dollars propaganda release expenses, MGM this time definitely meet the huge loss.” 大概是看出瑞恩并不是非常了解,雪莉?兰辛简单的解释了下,“米高梅投资的约翰?吴的《风语者》,一亿一千五百万美元的制作成本,只拿到了四千万美元的票房,周边的电视播放和dvd版权到现在还没有卖掉,算上超过五千万美元的宣传发行费用,米高梅这次肯定会巨额亏损。” „Perhaps even, will file for bankruptcy protection.” She also said. “甚至,说不定会就此申请破产保护。”她又说道。 „Don't they plan to start 007 again?” Ryan holds the chest single-handed, pinched the chin. “难道他们不打算再一次启动007？”瑞恩单手抱胸,捏起了下巴。 MGM is like DreamWorks, there is a unique skill of life-saving, that is " 007 » series. 米高梅同梦工厂一样,也有救命的绝招,那就是《007》系列。 „In addition John? Wu Dailai the huge loss......” Xueli? Lansing understood obviously very much condition of MGM, „their foreign loans reach as high as 4 billion US dollars.” “加上约翰?吴带来的这次巨额亏损……”雪莉?兰辛显然很了解米高梅的状况,“他们的外债高达四十亿美元。” Roughly considered several minutes, Ryan threw opposite party's proposition one side, since the 90's starting from, MGM was the hot goods, even if in ten years is so. 大致考虑了几分钟,瑞恩将对方的提议扔到了一边,从进入九十年代开始,米高梅就是烫手货,哪怕再过十年都是如此。 Let alone, the purchase words also mean that must take over that huge foreign loan. 何况,收购的话也意味着要接手那笔巨大的外债。 „Should not be " Wind Language » failure makes you give up John? Wu?” He changed the topic simply. “该不会是《风语者》的失败让你们放弃了约翰?吴吧？”他干脆转了话题。 „«We Once Were Soldier» have made Paramount lose are very big.” Xueli? Lansing said naturally, „will not definitely take risk begins using one to be defeated Director, the North American audience obviously was weary of his style.” “《我们曾经是战士》已经让派拉蒙损失很大了。”雪莉?兰辛理所当然的说,“肯定不会冒险启用一个失败过的导演,北美观众明显厌倦了他的风格。” Is saw probably Ryan does have no interest in MGM, Xueli? Lansing also no longer proposed the topic, two people topics mostly regarding this year's movie. 大概是看出瑞恩对米高梅没有兴趣,雪莉?兰辛也不再提刚才的话题,两人的话题大多是围绕着今年的电影。 This year the most deeply grieved big manufacture, is MGM «Wind Language», pigeon? Wu's movie not only box office disastrous defeat, but also encountered the consistent wanton bombing of North American Media. 今年最惨痛的一部大制作,就是米高梅的《风语者》,白鸽?吴的这部电影不但票房惨败,而且遭到了北美媒体的一致狂轰滥炸。 Most people attacked him to manufacture «Field operation Platoon» and «Saving Private Ryan» plot combination piece, simply did not have own thing. 大部分人抨击他只是制作了一部《野战排》和《拯救大兵瑞恩》的情节混杂片,根本没有自己的东西。 Such attack is obviously overdone, but regarding Director from Hong Kong, once suffered the failure to have this situation is too normal. 这样的抨击明显过火,但对于来自香港的导演来说,一旦遭遇失败出现这种情况太正常了。 Ryan remembers indistinctly, after this movie, is not long, he was abandoned by Hollywood thoroughly, where where went back and forth. 瑞恩隐约记得,这部电影之后没太久,他就彻底被好莱坞抛弃,从哪里来回了哪里去。 Naturally, the opposite party does not have the value, he will not cast the vision that pays attention to again. 当然,对方已经没有了价值,他也不会再投去关注的目光。 Hong Kong movie tide that recently in more than one year, Hollywood once came in swarms, gradually to ending time, these movie staff numbers from Hong Kong reduced suddenly, except for Alone? Outside Li, Yuen Woo-ping and other small numbers of people, others cannot stand firmly here. 最近这一年多,好莱坞曾经蜂拥而来的香港电影潮,渐渐到了落幕的时候,那些来自香港的电影工作人员数量急剧减少,除了杰特?李、袁和平等少数人外,其他人在这里根本就站不住脚。 Moreover the limited these people, the situation is not also good. 而且有限的这几个人,处境同样不好。 The Hong Kong movie of Hong Kong Media crazy hype conquers Hollywood, from beginning to end stops in the fantasy, their dreams should also awake. 香港媒体疯狂炒作的香港电影征服好莱坞,从始至终就停在幻想当中,他们的梦也该醒了。 Although their movies just presented the work of so-called bailout, but the choice goes north is the only outlet. 他们的电影虽然刚刚出现了所谓救市之作,但选择北上才是唯一的出路。 The person in Disney Far East Branch also received the notice of Ryan, person contact with Hong Kong Huanya film company, with the aim of first starting to buy the copyright of that movie. 迪士尼远东分公司的人也接到了瑞恩的通知,正在跟香港寰亚影业的人接触,以便先下手买到那部电影的版权。 Perhaps in the future can hand over to sell to Martin? Scorsese? 或许将来可以转手卖给马丁?斯科塞斯？ These are not the things of Ryan care, the related thought flashes past in the mind, after all the life of Hong Kong movie does not have one cent relations with him. 这些都不是瑞恩关心的事情,相关的念头只是在脑海中一闪而过,毕竟香港电影的死活跟他没有一美分的关系。 Actually, the Hong Kong movie died also has the advantage, at least Disney was short of a big competitor in Far East. 其实,香港电影死掉也不是没有好处,最起码迪士尼在远东少了一大竞争对手。 Hong Kong? Goes north? Ryan thinks suddenly by a matter that oneself neglect, next year will be in 2003! 香港？北上？瑞恩忽然想到了被自己忽略掉的一件事,明年可是2003年！ According to the plan, «Heath's Revenge» will go to China to select a scene, «Lord of the Rings 3: King return» is discussing same time the first showing with shadow, these are possibly suspended...... 按照计划,《西斯的复仇》会去中国取景,《魔戒三:王者归来》正在跟中影谈同期首映,这些都可能被迫中断…… Opposite government could not affect, is not willing to do with them, if they still looked like the previous generation to process like that the virus will definitely wreak havoc again. 对面的政府自己影响不了,也不愿与他们打交道,如果他们依然像前世那般处理,病毒肯定会再一次肆虐。 Perhaps, can use some secret methods, an advanced warning World Health Organization, if they can verify the intervention, even internationally sounds the warning publicly, opposite will not choose to the public is silent, earlier takes the effective measure, perhaps the viral large surface area will not erupt thoroughly. 或许,可以用些隐秘的手段,提前警告一下世界卫生组织,如果他们能查证干预,甚至在国际上公开发出警报,想必对面也不会选择对公众缄默,会更早的采取有效措施,说不定病毒不会大面积彻底爆发。 Thinks of here, Ryan telephones, left the party directly, goes to the Disney office building to look for working overtime George, this matter also only then he can feel relieved by himself. 想到这里,瑞恩打了个电话,直接离开了派对,去迪士尼办公大楼找加班的乔治,这种事也只有他才能让自己放心。 Holding Walt Disney one year, besides the veto extremely limited losing money project, Ryan has not intervened the operation of Disney, he brings more is the change in movie, as well as is centered on the movie performance that obviously drives. 控股华特迪士尼一年了,除了否决极其有限的赔钱项目外,瑞恩并没有怎么干预过迪士尼的运转,他所带来的更多是电影方面的变化,以及以电影为中心显著拉动的业绩。 To the mature media company, sells the movie greatly, can transform as more actual incomes, Jenkins film company, is Pixar Studio, or is Marvel Comics, most does not lack sells the movie greatly. 对于成熟的传媒公司来说,一部大卖电影,可以转化为更多实际的收益,无论是詹金斯影业,还是皮克斯工作室,亦或者是惊奇漫画,最不缺少的就是大卖电影。 But through a series of methods, Disney had been grasped by him firmly in the hand. 而通过一系列的手段,迪士尼已经被他牢牢握在了手中。 This is also unusual one year, Ryan under the encirclements of many bodyguard, crossed the Christmas, reduced the going out time as far as possible, terror attack that avoids possibly being able to present, the Nicole best actress public relations, gave the following team to operate completely. 这也是不同寻常的一年,瑞恩在众多保镖的环绕下,渡过了圣诞节,又尽量缩减了外出时间,以避免可能会出现的恐怖袭击,就连妮可的最佳女主角公关,都完全交给了下面的团队来运作。 Clue that the terror attack has not presented that the Al-Qaida of dead end is more like blusters, Ryan will not be negligent, after all that is the group out-and-out lunatic, how even their Allah will not perhaps be fully correct them to do. rs 恐怖袭击并没有出现的端倪,穷途末路的基地组织更像是虚张声势,瑞恩却不会大意,毕竟那是群不折不扣的疯子,连他们的真主恐怕也猜不透他们会怎么做。rs S s
