克里斯·迦纳 见到您很荣幸
Chris Gardner. Pleasure.
我在外面坐了半个多小时
I've been sitting there for the last half- hour...
一直想编出个理由
trying to come up with a story...
向你们解释我这身打扮出现的原因
that would explain my being here dressed like this.
想编出个故事说明我身上
And I wanted to come up with a story that would demonstrate qualities...
拥有你们所欣赏的优点... 比如诚实 勤奋
that I'm sure you all admire here, like earnestness or diligence.
团队精神等等 结果我却什么都想不出来
Team- playing, something. And I couldn't think of anything.
事实是
So the truth is...
因为没能付清停车罚单 我被拘留了
I was arrested for failure to pay parking tickets.
罚单？什么？
Parking tickets?
我是从警差局... 警察局一路跑来的
And I ran all the way here from the Polk Station, the police station.
被拘留前你在干什么？
What were you doing before you were arrested?
我在粉刷我的家
I was painting my apartment.
现在干了吗？
Is it dry now?
希望如此
I hope so.
杰说你一心想进我们公司
Jay says you're pretty determined.
没错 他拎着个40磅重的玩意儿
He's been waiting outside the front of the building...
在公司门口等了一个多月了
with some 40- pound gizmo for over a month.
- 他说你很聪明 - 我自认是有些
- He said you're smart. - Well, I like to think so.
- 你想学这行？ - 是的 先生 我想学
- And you want to learn this business? - Yes, sir, I wanna learn.
已经开始自学了吗？
Have you already started learning on your own?
当然
Absolutely. - 杰 - 是的 先生
- Jay? - Yes, sir.
你见过克里斯多少回？
How many times have you seen Chris?
我不清楚 好多次了吧 应该
I don't know. One too many, apparently. - 他有穿戴成这样吗？ - 不
- Was he ever dressed like this? - No.
没有 都是西装领带
No. Jacket and tie.
克里斯 你在班上是第一名？
First in your class in school? - 高中？ - 是的 先生
- High school? - Yes, sir.
- 班上一共多少人？ - 12人
- How many in the class? - Twelve.
那是个小镇
It was a small town. - 我就说嘛 - 我在海军服役时是雷达班的第一名
- I'll say. - But I was also first in my radar class...
那个班里有20人
in the Navy, and that was a class of 20.
我能说几句吗？
Can I say something?
呃...我是这样的人
I'm the type of person...
如果你问的问题我不知道答案
if you ask me a question, and I don't know the answer...
我会直接告诉你“我不知道”
I 'm gonna tell you that I don't know.
但我向你保证
But I bet you what.
我知道如何寻找答案 而且我一定会找出答案的
I know how to find the answer, and I will find the answer.
这样可以吗？
Is that fair enough?
克里斯
Chris.
如果有个人连衬衫都没穿 就跑来参加面试 你会怎么想？
What would you say if a guy walked in for an interview without a shirt on...
如果我最后还雇了这个人 你会怎么想？
and I hired him? What would you say?
那他穿的裤子一定十分考究
He must've had on some really nice pants.
克里斯 我难以理解你穿成这样来面试
Chris, I don't know how you did it dressed as a garbage man... - 但是你刚才的表现很不错 - 谢谢 托斯特尔先生
but you pulled it off. - Thank you, Mr. Twistle.
现在开始叫我杰 回来聊
Hey, now you can call me Jay. We'll talk to you soon.
好的 我会给你答复的 杰
All right, so I'll let you know, Jay.
给我答复？什么意思？
"You'll let me know, Jay"? What do you mean?
我明天会给你电话的
Yeah, I'll give you a call tomorrow sometime...
你说什么？是你找我的
What are you talking...? You hounded me for this. - 你当时就站在那里... - 实习期没有工资
- You stood here... - Listen, there's no salary.
- 没有 - 我并不知道没有工资
- No. - I was not aware of that.
现在我的处境变了
My circumstances have changed some... - 我需要确定我能... - 好的
and I need to be certain that I'll be... - All right. Okay.
今晚给我答复
Tonight.
如果你不把握这机会 我马上给别人
I swear I will fill your spot. I promise.
如果你现在放弃 你知道股东会怎么看我吗？
If you back out, you know what I'll look like to the partners?
知道 把你看成混蛋
Yes, an ass... A- hole.
是啊 把我看成混蛋 肯定是的
Yeah, an ass A- hole, all the way.
你还真不简单啊
You are a piece of work.
今晚给我答复
Tonight.
