Italian Restaurant Boss Jeff discovered that for serveral days Eric had changed a person probably, no longer frequently is distracted to be in a daze, the whole person becomes bursting with life. Entertains the guest time also no longer like before jerky, occasionally also will play several jokes of not hurting the essentials with the guest, even Jeff discovered that Eric utilizes some hippies actually not to annoy the person repugnant tune unexpectedly skilled, adjusts | the sentiment with 30 -year-old about single women of quality, when pays up obtained the woman of quality three times of tip and not mincing matter a coquettish look. 意大利餐厅的老板杰夫发现,这些天艾瑞克好像换了一个人,不再经常走神发呆,整个人变得神采奕奕。招待客人的时候也不再像以前那样生涩,偶尔还会跟客人开几个无伤大雅的玩笑,甚至有一次杰夫发现,艾瑞克竟然熟练地运用一种有些嬉皮却不惹人反感的腔调,跟一个三十多岁左右的单身贵妇调丨情,结账时获得了贵妇三倍的小费和一个毫不掩饰的媚眼。 „Eric, met anything to be meddlesome, I discovered you recently very... Exceptionally?” A rest gap, Jeff could not bear ask finally, regarding the child who the old friend left behind, he very much cared. “艾瑞克,是不是遇到什么好事了,我发现你最近很…异常？”一次休息间隙,杰夫最终还是忍不住问了出来,对于老朋友留下的这个孩子,他还是很关心的。 „Is very obvious?” Eric has gawked, asked. “很明显吗？”艾瑞克愣了一下,问道。 Jeff said with a smile: „Naturally, writes on your face simply.” 杰夫笑道:“当然,简直就写在你脸上。” „Perhaps, is the goal that because I found the struggle, you know that person, once had the ideal, the whole person will become very stimulated.” “或许,是因为我找到奋斗的目标了吧,你知道的,人一旦有了理想,整个人都会变得很亢奋。” „Oh, what ideal, can say that listens to me?” “哦,什么理想,能说给我听听吗？” „Naturally,” Eric replied: „I have decided that I later must make Director. Nà, I was creating my first script recently, in two days will finish.” “当然,”艾瑞克答道:“我决定了,我以后要做一个导演。呐,我最近可是在创作我的第一个剧本,再过两天就写完了。” „Leads... Director?” Jeff is somewhat surprised, the subconsciousness wants to open the mouth to persuade Eric do not aim too high, but changes mind to remember this child in the sorrow that just since the father passed away gets rid, found a goal, has swallowed own words. “导…导演？”杰夫有些惊讶,下意识想要开口劝说艾瑞克不要好高骛远,不过转念想起这孩子才刚刚从父亲去世的哀痛中摆脱出来,找到一个奋斗目标,还是咽下了自己的话。 In the Eric leather bag thinks of a soul of middle-aged person, Jeff is only the complexion moves slightly, Eric just knows he wanted to say anything, but actually smiled has not cared. After all here is Hollywood, every year arrived here to track down the person who the movie vainly hopes to be numbered in the tens of thousands from the entire world, few of but actually succeeding, Jeff has this idea to be very normal. 艾瑞克皮囊里可是装着一副中年人的灵魂,杰夫只是脸色微微一动,艾瑞克就知道他想要说什么,不过却笑了笑没有在意。毕竟这里是好莱坞,每年从全世界来到这里追寻电影梦想的人数以万计,但成功的却寥寥无几,杰夫有这种想法很正常。 „That... When your script has written, can with show me. Must know that in the past I also once wanted to make Actor, do not visit me now this appearance,” Jeff has patted the giant wholesale market, then said: „In the past I was very handsome. You must know that I have also participated in «The Godfather» a small role screen test, in an instant, already these many years.” “那个…等你剧本写好了,可以拿给我看看。要知道,当年我也曾经想要做一个演员,别看我现在这个样子,”杰夫拍了拍自己巨大的啤酒肚,接着道:“当年我可是很英俊的。你要知道,我还参加过《教父》里一个小角色的试镜呢,转眼之间,已经这么多年了。” Some Eric speechless, cannot think that Jeff also has such passing, but quick has felt relaxed, but here Hollywood, in the world the biggest movie factory, does not have anything is impossible, Stallone also has shot «The Party at Kitty and Stud's». 艾瑞克有些哑然,想不到杰夫还有这么一段过往,不过很快就释然了,这里可是好莱坞,世界上最大的电影工厂,没有什么是不可能的,史泰龙都还拍过《意大利种丨马》呢。 „Does not have the issue, when the time comes you can help me make some comments.” Eric replied, just can make Jeff help itself have a look in that script to have any loophole. “没问题,到时候你可以帮我提一些意见。”艾瑞克答道,刚好可以让杰夫帮自己看看那个剧本里有没有什么漏洞。 Although after Eric already as far as possible in some 1988 that script , the thing that presents revises, but actually cannot guarantee that does not have the careless mistake. But Jeff as an outsider, can discover in script very much with ease some inopportune things. 虽然艾瑞克已经尽量将那部剧本中一些1988年以后才出现的东西修改掉,但却不能保证毫无纰漏。而杰夫作为一个局外人,可以很轻松地发现剧本中一些不合时宜的东西。 Two people also chatted several, several guests entered the dining room, Eric have gone forward to call the guest hastily. 两个人又谈笑了几句,几个客人走进了餐厅,艾瑞克连忙上前招呼客人。 A day of work in the past, Eric went home quickly, has had the supper in a hurry, starts the busy «Jurassic Park» novel and script matter. 一天的工作很快过去,艾瑞克回到家,匆匆吃了晚餐,就开始忙碌《侏罗纪公园》小说和剧本的事情。 «Jurassic Park» basically had finished, the present is final proofreading. Eric plans to find time to photocopy several to submit a piece of writing to several Publishing House tomorrow. But script has actually written a program, matters needing attention that as well as some need to revise. Completes these, has complete image Eric regarding the mind, finished script only requires two evening's time. 《侏罗纪公园》基本上已经写完了,现在是最后的校对。艾瑞克打算明天抽空复印几份向几个出版社投稿。而剧本却只是写了一个大纲,以及一些需要修改的注意事项。完成这些,对于脑海中拥有完整影像的艾瑞克来说,将剧本写完只需要两个晚上时间。 Next morning, Eric around 7 : 00 am leave the home, planned that and mails the «Jurassic Park» photocopying, he has prepared some North America famous Publishing House contribution addresses ahead of time, naturally, even if these large-scale Publishing House have rejected the Eric draft, he will not be disappointed. Must know that North America has reaches tens of thousands large and small Publishing House, the meeting is always willing to publish this novel. Although «Jurassic Park» once rushed to the 《The New York Times》 bestseller ranking first place, but Eric cares is actually not the «Jurassic Park» royalty, but after wanting the novel is published, film and television copyright grips in the hand. 第二天上午,艾瑞克早上七点多就离开家,打算将《侏罗纪公园》复印并邮寄出去,他已经提前准备好了一些北美著名的出版社的投稿地址,当然,即使这些大型出版社拒绝了艾瑞克的稿子,他也不会失望。要知道,北美可是有多达几万家大大小小的出版社,总有一家会愿意出版这部小说。虽然《侏罗纪公园》一度冲上《纽约时报》畅销书排行榜榜首,但艾瑞克在乎的却不是《侏罗纪公园》的版税,而只是想要将小说出版后,把影视版权攥在手中。 „Hello, has something to help your?” Just entered a printing shop, a somewhat thin black person vendeuse welcomed warmly. “你好,有什么可以帮你的吗？”刚走进一家印刷店,一个有些消瘦的黑人女店员热情地迎了上来。 Eric pulls out to say the manuscript in package: „I want to photocopy several this manuscript.” 艾瑞克将包里的书稿掏出来道:“我想将这部书稿复印几份。” The black person girl reads thick manuscript, eye slightly one bright, the smiling face on face was brighter: „Sir, can I look at?” 黑人女孩看着厚厚的书稿,眼睛微微一亮,脸上的笑容更加灿烂了:“先生,我可以看一下吗？” „Does not have the issue,” Eric has handed over the manuscript. “没问题,”艾瑞克将书稿递了过去。 The black person girl has not paid attention to the manuscript the content, but counted under the number of pages to say skilled: „Probably more than 300 pages, calculate that your 300 pages were good. Every time photocopies 30 USD, the mister please ask that you can photocopy several?” 黑人女孩并没有注意书稿的内容,而是熟练地数了下页数道:“大概300多页,算你300页好了。每复印一份三十美元,先生请问你要复印几份？” 30 USD! The Eric corners of the mouth have pulled out pulling out slightly, sighed one darkly quite expensively, he only the remaining several hundred USD cashes, this has paid in advance in situation of one month of wage now. 三十美元！艾瑞克嘴角微微抽了抽,暗叹一声好贵,他现在只剩下几百美元现金了,这还是预支了一个月薪水的情况下。 After being thick the facial skin one was bargaining back and forth, two people decide that a hundred USD price photocopied four. After having paid money, the black person girl very polite made one coffee to Eric, then takes the manuscript to start to photocopy. 厚着脸皮一番讨价还价之后,两个人商定一百美元的价格复印四份。付过钱之后,黑人女孩很有礼貌的给艾瑞克冲了一杯咖啡,然后拿着书稿开始复印。 Eric holds the coffee cup to look that bored the black person girl operates the duplicator, the secret consider as finished next time, probably a half hour can be completed, will not delay to the dining room goes to work. Although after dining room ten points, starts to bustle about truly, even if has been late, will not deduct his wages by the Jeff disposition, but the friendship turns over to the friendship, the work is the work, Eric knows that wants to maintain the relations with Jeff, defends own duty to. 艾瑞克无聊地捧着咖啡杯看着黑人女孩操作复印机,暗暗算了下时间,大概半个小时就能完成,不会耽误到餐厅上班。虽然餐厅十点之后才开始真正忙碌起来,即使迟到了,以杰夫的性格也不会扣他的工资,但交情归交情,工作是工作,艾瑞克知道想要维持好与杰夫的关系,守好自己的本分是必须的。 Crossed for probably about ten minutes, printing shop entrance slightly one dark, Eric raised the head to see that a white man of brown hair took a handbag to enter in the shop. 过了大概十分钟左右,印刷店门口微微一暗,艾瑞克抬头看到一个棕色头发的白人男子提着一个皮包走进了店里。 Men's is about 40 years old, the height is less than one meter seven, actually appears very sturdy, the chin is keeping brown stubble, bridge of the nose tall Ting, wears gold-rimmed eyeglasses, the forehead micro bare, the whole person is sending out the refined books makings. 男子40岁左右,身高不到一米七,却显得很壮实,下巴留着棕色胡茬,鼻梁高挺,戴着一副金丝眼镜,额头微秃,整个人散发着温雅的书卷气质。 „Welcome visits, Sir, waits a bit?” “欢迎光临,先生,稍等一下可以吗？” The brown hair man nodded, greeted with Eric very much politely, sits down by Eric. The black person girl stops the work in hand temporarily, fast gave the brown hair man but actually one coffee: „Sir, more than ten minutes were then good, please first drink the cup coffee.” 棕发男子点了点头,很有礼貌地跟艾瑞克打了声招呼,在艾瑞克旁边坐下。黑人女孩暂时停下手中的工作,飞快地给棕发男子倒了一杯咖啡:“先生,再有十多分钟就好了,请先喝杯咖啡吧。” The brown hair man received the coffee to say thanked, follows the black person girl's form to see that thick one pack of drafts, the look moves slightly, in the shop only then three people, the man put on the vision Eric. 棕发男子接过咖啡道了一声谢,跟随着黑人女孩的身影看到那厚厚一叠稿子,神色微动,店里只有三个人,男子不由将目光放到艾瑞克身上。 „Takes the liberty to ask one, is that your draft?” “冒昧问一句,那是你的稿子吗？” The Eric nod said: „Yes, a novel, I just finished, plans to photocopy several contributions.” 艾瑞克点头道:“是的,一部小说,我刚刚写完的,打算复印几份投稿。” „You look like is a high-school student, may be really fierce, I look like you such big time may unable to achieve these.” “你看起来是一个高中生吧,可真厉害,我像你这么大的时候可做不到这些。” „Thank you, actually this is my first part novel, my not too many confidence.” “谢谢你,其实这是我第一部小说,我也没有太多信心。” „No, must believe itself. That, can I read your novel?” The brown hair man was saying, pulls out a name card to give Eric saying: „Just, I have small Publishing House.” “不,要相信自己。那个,我可以看一下你的小说吗？”棕发男子说着,掏出一张名片递给艾瑞克道:“刚好,我有一家小出版社。” Eric received the name card to look, Michael Claus, Night Elf Publishing House Manager. The Eric eyebrow jumped jumping, luckily is not Michael Crichton. Eric cannot bear spit the trough westerner in having the deficient creativity in name, in the memory in the class and grade of Eric high school, two called Jack, two called Jessica, but the range expanded the school, the person of duplicate were more. Even the son was born to be disinclined new name, called small Robert directly Downey anything, same had the wood to have! 艾瑞克接过名片看了一下,迈克尔・克劳斯,夜色精灵出版社经理。艾瑞克眉毛不由跳了跳,幸好不是迈克尔・克莱顿。艾瑞克忍不住吐槽西方人在起名字方面的缺乏创意,记忆里艾瑞克高中的班级里,就有两个叫杰克的,两个叫杰西卡的,而范围扩大到全校,重名的人就更多了。甚至儿子出生懒得起新名字,直接叫小罗伯特・唐尼什么的,一样啊有木有！ Looked in any case will not be pregnant, Eric will have photocopied the draft brought, has given Michael Claus. The opposite party received the draft, looked at a book title, along with tastes: „«Jurassic Park», very interesting name.” 反正看一下又不会怀孕,艾瑞克将已经复印过的稿子拿过来,递给了迈克尔・克劳斯。对方接过稿子,看了一眼书名,随口道:“《侏罗纪公园》,很有意思的名字。” Eric shows a faint smile, has not said. Michael Claus also no longer said anything, reads conveniently. Along with the deepening of reading, Michael optional expression gradually becomes earnest, although he just on the mouth commended Eric, but does not think can write any splendid novel at heart at the Eric age. In his past employed experience, the authors of these bestsellers were almost are full of the person of life story and rich knowledge accumulation completely. 艾瑞克微微一笑,并没有接话。迈克尔・克劳斯也不再说什么,随手翻看起来。随着阅读的深入,迈克尔随意的神情渐渐变得认真起来,他刚刚虽然嘴上称赞艾瑞克,不过心里并不认为以艾瑞克的年龄能够写出什么精彩的小说。在他以往的从业经历中,那些畅销书的作者几乎全部都是充满人生阅历和丰富知识积累的人。 Rapidly and reads off the draft in hand carefully, Michael reorganizes earnestly the somewhat scattered in disorder draft, looks up to Eric, in that look floods surprised and excited, is rejoicing as well as some wins. 迅速而又仔细地读完手中的稿子,迈克尔认真地将有些散乱的稿子整理好,抬头看向艾瑞克,那眼神中充斥着惊讶、兴奋、庆幸以及些许志在必得。 „Young people, can I know your name?” “年轻人,我可以知道你的名字吗？” „Eric Williams,” Eric is not artificial, replied directly. By his previous life rich story, how unable to see that Michael in the expression is containing anything at this time. Although temporarily not gives the plan of small Publishing House «Jurassic Park», but does not hinder him to know Michael Claus. If «Jurassic Park» had been rejected by these well-known Publishing House, this is also a choice. “艾瑞克·威廉姆斯,”艾瑞克也不矫情,直接答道。以他前世丰富的阅历,如何看不出迈克尔此时表情里蕴含着什么。虽然暂时没有将《侏罗纪公园》交给小型出版社的打算,不过并不妨碍他结识一下迈克尔・克劳斯。万一《侏罗纪公园》真的被那些知名出版社拒绝了,这也是一种选择。
