The «17 Again» preview meeting is very successful, 20th Century Fox high level, the institute line discussing representative, favors this youth campus comedy consistently. Feels grateful - during Christmas files, if Eric has not appeared, 20th Century Fox only during on December 23 Christmas day, distributed Harrison Ford and Sigourney comedy 《Working Girl》 that Weaver two superstar participate performance. 《重返十七岁》的试片会很成功,不论是二十世纪福克斯的高层,还是院线商代表,一致看好这部青春校园喜剧。感恩－圣诞档期间,如果艾瑞克没有出现的话,二十世纪福克斯本来只在12月23日圣诞节期间,发行一部哈里森・福特和西格妮・韦弗两位巨星参演的喜剧《打工女郎》。 Now had «17 Again», in November of issuance plan the Thanksgiving running schedule just had not been filled by this movie. After the discussion, the «17 Again» determination screened on November 18, Eric was very satisfied to this show time, saw in the movie running schedule material that from 20th Century Fox there, Eric discovered entire in November, memory the movie in high Box Office did not have, simply entered the village to customize for «17 Again» quietly. But in movie that in December shows, previous life crushed into 1988 merely the North America Box Office list first ten had 《Rain Man》, 《Twins》 and «The Naked Gun» three. 现在有了《重返十七岁》,原本并没有发行计划的11月感恩节档期也刚好由这部电影填充。经过讨论,《重返十七岁》确定在11月18日上映,艾瑞克对这个上映时间很满意,从二十世纪福克斯那里看到的电影档期资料里,艾瑞克发现整个十一月,一部记忆里的高票房的电影都没有,简直就是为《重返十七岁》悄悄进村量身定做的。而十二月上映的电影里,仅仅前世挤进1988年北美票房榜前十的就有《雨人》、《龙兄鼠弟》和《白头神探》三部。 Toward noon, James before Brooks leads Eric to arrive one over 40 years old to wear the middle-aged person of eye, finally. This is the 20th Century Fox issue department is in charge of Carter Hunt, introduced mutually, James Brooks left them the space, although he is now good to the Eric sense, but they are neither relative nor kin after all, he will not waste the favor to help the Eric small cost movie say. 临近中午,詹姆斯・布鲁克斯终于领着艾瑞克来到一个40多岁戴着眼睛的中年人身前。这是二十世纪福克斯的发行部主管卡尔塔・亨特,相互介绍了一下,詹姆斯・布鲁克斯就将空间留给了两人,他虽然现在对艾瑞克感官不错,但毕竟两人非亲非故,他不会浪费人情帮艾瑞克的小成本电影说项。 „Hello, Mr. Carter.” Eric and Carter shook hand, the opposite party also very much politely praised performing skill of Eric in «17 Again». “你好,卡尔塔先生。”艾瑞克与卡尔塔握了握手,对方也很客气地夸奖了一句艾瑞克在《重返十七岁》里的演技。 However, after Eric explained own intention, Carter wants not to refuse saying: „Sorry, Eric, the company this year's issuance plan has filled, is impossible to fill a small cost movie again temporarily, therefore I can only be sorry.” 不过,在艾瑞克说明了自己的意图之后,卡尔塔想都没想就拒绝道:“对不起,艾瑞克,公司今年的发行计划已经满了,不可能再临时塞进来一部小成本电影,所以我只能抱歉了。” The reason of this shirking is very forced, if Spielberg recommends own movie, it is estimated that Carter Hunt weeps and wails to throw to hold the thigh directly. 这种推脱的理由很牵强,如果是斯皮尔伯格推荐自己的电影,估计卡尔塔・亨特直接就哭着喊着扑上去抱大腿了。 Although Carter rejection simple of , but Eric struggles via: „Mr. Carter, can we have a look at my movie to say first again that I just have brought the copy, you only need to spend for one hour to look, I pledged that this is a very good movie.” 虽然卡尔塔拒绝的很干脆,不过艾瑞克还是争取道:“卡尔塔先生,我们能不能先看看我的电影再说,我刚好把拷贝带来了,你只需要花一个多小时看一下,我发誓这是一部很棒的电影。” Carter shook the head once more, sells the small company of oneself movie to him is almost these excuses, especially is recent, because close to the popular running schedule, does not have Film Studio of distribution circuit to do everything possible to the movie that he sells himself to produce, he has also looked at several concerned about some favors, basically does not have many commercial values, therefore impossible to waste the time in a small cost comedy of 18 -year-old youth now: „Eric, you know that my present work is very busy, immediately must arrange the «17 Again» distribution, in the afternoon must go to Headquarters to meet, therefore, can only be sorry.” 卡尔塔再次摇了摇头,很多向他推销自己电影的小公司几乎都是这些说辞,特别是最近,因为临近热门档期,很多没有自己发行渠道的电影公司都想方设法向他推销自己制作的电影,他也碍于一些人情看过几部,基本上都没有多少商业价值,所以现在更不可能在一个18岁少年的小成本喜剧上浪费时间:“艾瑞克,你知道,我现在的工作很忙,马上还要安排《重返十七岁》发行工作,下午还要去总部开会,所以,只能抱歉了。” Person who Eric is not easy to give up, was thick the facial skin to request several, Carter did not find an excuse to turn around to leave finally patiently. 艾瑞克并不是那么容易放弃的人,厚着脸皮请求了几句,卡尔塔终于不耐烦地找了个借口转身离开。 „Eric, is the result what kind of?” In crowd that returns to itself to know, Penny Marshall asked. “艾瑞克,结果怎么样？”回到自己认识的人群中,潘妮・马歇尔问道。 Eric is smiling bitterly shaking the head, Penny the Marshall comfort patted the shoulder of Eric saying: „Do not be discouraged, Eric. The movie release also needs the cost, the announcement costs of many movie are even higher than the movie-making cost, once Box Office is not ideal, the head needs to shoulder the responsibility, therefore you should understand Carter. You produced your movie to spend a lot of money, when has been busy at these days, I can help you introduce that recording tape issuing company, after «17 Again» screened, by your fame, distributed the recording tape somewhat to recoup some funds directly. Moreover I thought that you should take energy to use on screenwriter and Actor, your talent is good, walks conscientiously, would one as.” 艾瑞克苦笑着摇了摇头,潘妮・马歇尔安慰地拍了拍艾瑞克的肩膀道:“别灰心,艾瑞克。电影发行也是需要成本的,很多电影的宣发成本甚至比制片成本还要高,一旦票房不理想,负责人是需要承担责任的,所以你应该理解卡尔塔。你制作自己的电影应该花了不少钱吧,等忙过了这段时间,我可以帮你介绍家录像带发行公司,《重返十七岁》上映后,以你的名气,直接发行录像带多多少少能收回一些资金。而且我觉得你应该把精力多用在编剧和演员上,你的天赋不错,脚踏实地走下去,总会有一番作为的。” „Thank you, Penny.” Eric expressed gratitude, actually some slightly send at heart painstakingly, everybody as if has regarded the experimental film of oneself this new military recruits «Home Alone», he wants to tie up those present really completely on the seat, forcefully puts «Home Alone». What a pity this thought operates to need God he to help. “谢谢你,潘妮。”艾瑞克道了声谢,心里却有些微微发苦,大家似乎都把《小鬼当家》当成了自己这个菜鸟的实验电影了,他真想将在场的人全部绑在座位上,强行把《小鬼当家》放一遍。可惜这个念头操作起来需要上帝他老人家帮忙。 Somewhat depressed went home, since 20th Century Fox here has been hopeless, then can only attempt to other Film Studio. 有些沮丧地回到家,既然二十世纪福克斯这里已经没戏了,那么只能向其他电影公司尝试一下。 Rolling up of Aniston kitty in the living room sofa, watches the BBC soap opera bored, sees Eric to open the door, searches the small head to ask: „Eric, is the situation what kind of?” 安妮斯顿猫咪似的蜷缩在客厅沙发里,无聊地看着BBC的肥皂剧,见到艾瑞克开门进来,探着小脑袋问道:“艾瑞克,情况怎么样？” Eric walks to hold the bosom Aniston, strokes gently her back saying: „20th Century Fox has rejected, but has not related, I will try other Film Studio.” 艾瑞克走过来将安妮斯顿抱进怀里,摩挲着她的后背道:“二十世纪福克斯拒绝了,不过没关系,我会尝试一下其他电影公司。” Aniston felt that in the Eric expression is bringing light dejected, grasps the waist of boyfriend to lift the elegant face comfort saying: „Has not related, Eric, «Home Alone» is so splendid, they rejected definitely are their losses, I believe after and other «Home Alone» screened, they will certainly regret today's actions.” 安妮斯顿感觉到艾瑞克语气里带着淡淡的颓然,抱住男友的腰抬起俏脸安慰道:“没关系,艾瑞克,《小鬼当家》那么出色,他们拒绝了肯定是他们的损失,我相信等《小鬼当家》上映之后,他们一定会后悔今天的所作所为的。” „Oh, the treasure, your words may the really warm heart.” Eric has pinched the Aniston’s cheek. “哦,宝贝,你的话可真暖心。”艾瑞克捏了捏安妮斯顿的脸蛋。 They kissed unrestrainedly in one, after a while, the ringtone has rung, after several, Eric pushed to resist in Aniston not to would rather let loose the girl. 两人情不自禁地吻在了一起,过了一会儿,电话铃声响了起来,好几声之后,艾瑞克才在安妮斯顿地推攘下不情愿放开女孩。 „Hello, here is Williams.” “喂,这里是威廉姆斯家。” „......” “……” „Does Jeffrey, hello, what matter have?” “杰弗里,你好,有什么事情吗？” „......” “……” Eric is hearing the sound in telephone, suddenly has shouldered the eyebrow, Aniston knows that this is the boyfriend was happy when has the movement that has collected curiously, but has not actually heard clearly Jeffrey Hansson telephone said anything. 艾瑞克听着电话里的声音,突然挑起了眉毛,安妮斯顿知道这是男友高兴时才有的动作,好奇地凑了过来,不过却没有听清杰弗里・汉森电话里说什么。 Eric nods to echo several, has made the telephone call, hugged Aniston in the bosom transferred several. 艾瑞克点着头附和了几句,挂了电话,一把将安妮斯顿搂在怀里转了几圈。 „Hehe, Eric, I was a little dizzy, puts me to get down quickly, is what good news?” “呵呵,艾瑞克,我有点晕了,快放我下来,是什么好消息啊？” Eric returns on Aniston the sofa, said: „Jeffrey just bumps into a Columbia Film Studio friend in the morning, mentioned «Home Alone», his friend is interested in this movie very much. Jeffrey said that if I have not signed the agreement with 20th Century Fox, can take away to try.” 艾瑞克将安妮斯顿放回沙发上,道:“杰弗里上午刚好碰到哥伦比亚电影公司的一个朋友,说起了《小鬼当家》,他那位朋友对这部电影很感兴趣。杰弗里说如果我没有跟二十世纪福克斯签下协议的话,可以拿去试试。” „Columbia Film Studio? Was that......” Aniston has made a free Statue of Liberty posture. “哥伦比亚电影公司？就是那个……”安妮斯顿做了一个自由女神像的姿势。 „Right, is that.” Eric nodded. “没错,就是那个。”艾瑞克点了点头。 ...... …… „Amy is my wife's good friend, was able, over the 30 year is the Columbia high level, my wife had two movies is she helps to draw the investment and distributes. Yesterday I bumped into her, just mentioned you, she knew you probably, then I said the «Home Alone» matter to her.” In a cafe, Jeffrey Hansson said the process of matter. “艾米是我妻子的好朋友,非常有能力,才三十岁出头就已经是哥伦比亚的高层了,我妻子有两部电影就是她帮忙拉来了投资并且发行的。昨天我碰到她,刚好说起了你,她好像知道你,然后我就跟她说了《小鬼当家》的事情。”一家咖啡厅里,杰弗里・汉森将事情的经过说了一遍。 Sits said in opposite Eric curiously: „Amy, you were said that the opposite party was a woman?” 坐在对面的艾瑞克好奇道:“艾米,你是说对方是一个女人？” „Naturally.” “当然。” The Eric heart said that so will not be skillful, associates to Columbia Film Studio again, Eric asks: „That, what is the Amy full name?” 艾瑞克心说不会这么巧吧,再联想到哥伦比亚电影公司,艾瑞克不由问道:“那个,艾米的全名是什么？” „Amy Pascal.” “艾米・帕斯卡尔。” Really is she, perhaps previous life in the 90's, leads into the peak from the trough Paramount once more Hollywood first female leader Sherry Lansing exposure lead high, but Amy Pascal achievement not compared with Sherry Lansing difference many, this capable woman rules the Columbia Film Studio time Sherry Lansing must be longer. 果然是她,或许前世九十年代,将派拉蒙再次从低谷带入巅峰的好莱坞第一位女掌门雪莉・兰辛曝光率更高一点,但艾米・帕斯卡尔的成就并不比雪莉・兰辛差多少,这个女强人统治哥伦比亚电影公司的时间比雪莉・兰辛还要长。 Eric also chatted several with Jeffrey, agreement time difference two minutes of time, Amy Pascal catches up in a hurry, one meter six several height, wears a black small western-style clothing, the brown long hair, the five senses are fine, has the makings. 艾瑞克又与杰弗里聊了几句,约定时间差两分钟的时候,艾米・帕斯卡尔匆匆赶来,一米六几的身高,穿着一身黑色的小西装,棕色长发,五官精致,非常有气质。 Has greeted mutually, three people sat together. 相互打过招呼,三个人一起坐了下来。
