[00:01.78] | CHAPTER 2 THE DIRECTORS OF THE OPERA HOUSE |
[00:08.35] | The Opera House was famous, |
[00:11.04] | and the directors of the Opera House were very important men. |
[00:16.17] | It was the first week of work for the two new directors, |
[00:20.40] | Monsieur Ar mand Moncharmin and Monsieur Firmin Richard. |
[00:25.65] | In the directors' office the next day, |
[00:28.70] | the two men talked about Joseph Buquet. |
[00:32.58] | 'It was an accident,' Monsieur Armand said angrily. |
[00:37.39] | 'Or Buquet killed himself.' |
[00:40.34] | 'An accident?…Killed himself?' |
[00:44.20] | Monsieur Firmin said. |
[00:46.34] | 'Which story do you want,my friend? |
[00:49.37] | Or do you want the story of the ghost?' |
[00:53.34] | 'Don't talk to me about ghosts!' |
[00:56.19] | Monsieur Armand said. |
[00:58.07] | 'We have 1,500 people |
[01:00.61] | working for us in this Opera House, |
[01:03.43] | and everybody is talking about the ghost. |
[01:06.77] | They're all mad! I don't want to hear about the ghost, OK?' |
[01:13.71] | Monsieur Firmin looked at a letter on the table next to him. |
[01:18.03] | And what are we going to do about this letter,Armand?' |
[01:22.42] | 'Do?' cried Monsieur Armand. |
[01:25.19] | 'Why, do nothing, of course! |
[01:27.63] | What can we do?' |
[01:30.31] | The two men read the letter again. |
[01:32.95] | It wasn't very long. |
[01:36.02] | To the new directors |
[01:38.84] | Because you are new in the Opera House, |
[01:41.66] | I am writing to tell you some important things. |
[01:45.61] | Never sell tickets for Box 5; |
[01:48.88] | that is my box for every opera night. |
[01:53.30] | Madame Giry, the door keeper, |
[01:56.16] | knows all about it. |
[01:58.51] | Also,I need money for my work in the Opera House. |
[02:03.42] | I am not expensive,and I am happy to |
[02:06.12] | take only 20,000 francs a month. |
[02:09.44] | That is all. |
[02:11.06] | But please remember, |
[02:13.45] | I can be a good friend, |
[02:15.94] | but a bad enemy. |
[02:18.79] | O.G. |
[02:21.99] | 'Don't sell tickets for Box 5! |
[02:24.99] | 20,000 francs a month!'Monsieur Armand was very angry again.' |
[02:31.08] | That's the best box in the Opera House, |
[02:33.53] | and we need the money, Firmin! |
[02:35.65] | And who is this O.G,eh?Tell me that!' |
[02:40.27] | 'Opera Ghost,of course,'Monsieur tirmin said.' |
[02:45.46] | But you're right, Armand. |
[02:47.99] | We can do nothing about this letter. |
[02:50.93] | It's a joke, a bad joke. Somebody thinks we are fools, |
[02:56.98] | because we are new here. |
[02:59.53] | There are no ghosts in the Opera House!' |
[03:04.62] | The two men then talked about the opera for that night. |
[03:08.52] | It was Faust,and usually La Carlotta sang Margarita. |
[03:14.61] | La Carlotta was Spanish,and the best singer in Paris. |
[03:18.36] | But today,La Carlot ta was ill. |
[03:22.97] | 'Everybody in Paris is going to be at the opera tonight,' |
[03:26.57] | said Monsieur Armand,'and cur best singer is ill. |
[03:30.48] | Suddenly! She writes a letter to us just this morning-she is ill, |
[03:35.61] | she cannot sing tonight!' |
[03:38.02] | 'Don't get angry again, Armand,' |
[03:41.27] | Monsieur Firmin said quickly.'We have Christine Daaé, |
[03:46.52] | that young singer from Norway. |
[03:49.26] | She can sing Margarita tonight. |
[03:51.49] | She has a good voice.' |
[03:53.92] | 'But she's so young, and nobody knows her! |
[03:57.74] | Nobody wants to listen to a new singer.' |
[04:01.49] | 'Wait and see. |
[04:03.82] | Perhaps Daaé can sing better than La Carlot ta. |
[04:07.99] | Who knows?' |

[02:35.65] | And who is this O G, eh? Tell me that!' |
[02:40.27] | ' Opera Ghost, of course,' Monsieur tirmin said' |

[00:01.78] | 第2章歌剧院的经理们 |
[00:08.35] | 歌剧院很著名, |
[00:11.04] | 而歌剧院的经理们也都是些非常显要的人物。 |
[00:16.17] | 这是两位新经理阿尔芒•蒙沙曼先生 |
[00:20.40] | 和菲尔曼•理查德先生上任的第一个星期。 |
[00:25.65] | 第二天,在经理办公室里, |
[00:28.70] | 这两位先生谈起了约瑟夫•比凯的事。 |
[00:32.58] | “这是个意外事故,”阿尔芒先生气愤地说, |
[00:37.39] | “要不然比凯就是自杀的。” |
[00:40.34] | “意外事故?……自杀?” |
[00:44.20] | 菲尔曼先生说, |
[00:46.34] | “你想要听一类故事,我的朋友? |
[00:49.37] | 或者说你想听一个关于幽灵的故事?” |
[00:53.34] | “不要跟我谈关于幽灵的事!” |
[00:56.19] | 阿尔芒先生说, |
[00:58.07] | “这个歌剧院里有1,500人 |
[01:00.61] | 在为我们工作, |
[01:03.43] | 而每个人都在谈论关于幽灵的事。 |
[01:06.77] | 他们都疯了!我不想听到关于幽灵的事,行不行?” |
[01:13.71] | 菲尔曼先生看着他临近的桌子上一封给他的信。 |
[01:18.03] | “那对于这封信我们该做些什么,阿尔芒?” |
[01:22.42] | “做些什么?”阿尔芒先生叫道, |
[01:25.19] | “为什么,什么也不做,当然! |
[01:27.63] | 我们又能做些什么呢?” |
[01:30.31] | 两位先生又读了一遍这封信。 |
[01:32.95] | 信并不很长。 |
[01:36.02] | 致新任经理们 |
[01:38.84] | 因为你们是歌剧院的新任经理, |
[01:41.66] | 所以我写信告诉你们一些重要的事情。 |
[01:45.61] | 不要出售5号包厢的票; |
[01:48.88] | 那是我观看每一场晚场歌剧的包厢。 |
[01:53.30] | 吉丽夫人,那位看门人, |
[01:56.16] | 知道这一切。 |
[01:58.51] | 除此之外,我还需要在歌剧院工作的钱。 |
[02:03.42] | 我要价并不高, |
[02:06.12] | 一个月拿两万法郎我就感到满足了。 |
[02:09.44] | 就这些。 |
[02:11.06] | 但是请记住, |
[02:13.45] | 我会是一个好朋友, |
[02:15.94] | 也会是一个死对头。 |
[02:18.79] | O.G.(注:O.G即OperaGhost的缩写。) |
[02:21.99] | “不要出售5号包厢的票! |
[02:24.99] | 两万法郎一个月!”阿尔芒先生又来气了, |
[02:31.08] | “那是歌剧院最好的包厢, |
[02:33.53] | 而且我们需要钱,菲尔曼! |
[02:35.65] | 谁是这个O.G.啊?告诉我!” |
[02:40.27] | “自然是歌剧院的幽灵,”菲尔曼先生说, |
[02:45.46] | “但你是对的,阿尔芒。 |
[02:47.99] | 我绝对不能按照信上说的那么做。 |
[02:50.93] | 这是一个玩笑,一个恶毒的玩笑。一些人认为我们是傻瓜, |
[02:56.98] | 因为我们是新来的。 |
[02:59.53] | 歌剧院里根本就没有幽灵!” |
[03:04.62] | 然后这两位先生就谈论起当晚的歌剧来。 |
[03:08.52] | 当晚的歌剧是《浮士德》, |
[03:14.61] | 通常由拉•卡洛塔演唱玛格丽塔。拉•卡洛塔是西班牙人,是巴黎最好的歌唱家。 |
[03:18.36] | 但是今天,拉•卡洛塔却病了。 |
[03:22.97] | “今晚巴黎的每个人都会到歌剧院来,” |
[03:26.57] | 阿尔芒先生说,“而我们最好的歌唱家却病了。 |
[03:30.48] | 她今天上午方才突然写信给我们——她病了, |
[03:35.61] | 她今晚不能演唱了!” |
[03:38.02] | “不要再生气了,阿尔芒,” |
[03:41.27] | 菲尔曼先生急忙说,“我们有克丽斯廷•达埃, |
[03:46.52] | 那个年轻的挪威歌唱家。 |
[03:49.26] | 她今晚可以演唱玛格丽塔那个角色。 |
[03:51.49] | 她有一副好嗓子。” |
[03:53.92] | 没有人想听一位新歌唱家的演唱。” |
[03:57.74] | “但是她太年轻了,而且没有人知道她! |
[04:01.49] | “等着瞧吧。 |
[04:03.82] | 也许达埃还会比拉•卡洛塔唱得更好。 |
[04:07.99] | 谁知道呢?” |
