    I guesstimate that i have about 50 pounds  of copper wire ,100 pounds of chain-link fence and two manhole covers .the nice thick ones .

    -I give 50 cents a pound of the wire ,15 for the fence ,and 10 for the covers 

    that below market value.

    --market value  ?  you know the cops came by asking about manhole covers ?

    I'd like to counter at a dollar a pound of the copper , 30 cents a pound for the fence ,and 20 cents per for the covers .

    --sell them somewhere else .

    I'd feel good at 75 , 25 ,and 15

    -I'm not negotiating with you .

    I think we are close.

    ----I'm done.

    I'm willing to take less to establish a business relationship .If that your last best offer , then I guess I accept .

    ------------All right .Drive around back and unload them.

    Excuse me ,sir ?  I'm looking for a job .In fact I've made up my mind to find a career that I can learn and grow into. Who am i ?I'm a hard- worker, I set high goals , and I've been told that I am persistent .Now ,I'm not fooling myself , sir.

    Having been raised with the self - esteem movement so popular in schools .I used to expect my needs to be considered . But I know that today's work culture no longer caters to the job loyalty , that could be promised to earlier generations . What I believe sir ,is that good things  come to those who  work their asses off.

    And that people such as yourself ,who reach the top of the mountain , didn't just fall there.

    My motto is if u wanna win the lottery , u  have  to  make the money to buy a ticket . Did i say that i worked in a garage ?

    So , what do u say ? I could start tomorrow ,or  even why not tonight ?

    -----------No.

    How about an internship then ? A lot of young people are taking unpaid positions to get a foot in the door.That's  something I'd be willing to do.

    ------------I'm not hiring a  fucking thief .

    《nightcrawler》墨西哥

    47:

      I didn't wake up until 5:00.My body  is so off . I feel like it's time for breakfast.

      I bet u're beatiful any time of the day .In fact ,I'd say ,u're much prettier than Lisa Mays . I like the dark make up on your eyes ,I also like the way u smell.

      So where u from ,Lou ?

      The north end of the valley .Some of the calls sometimes take me over there , but nobody i know still lives out there .u're from philadelphia,Pennsylvania .

      How did u know that ?

      It's online .Everything about u is online .Not everything , but definitely a lot.I've watched all the videos from when u were a reporter. I'm sure u look at those , of course.

      No .god ,no .Not without a drink in my hand.

      I watch my work all the time .

      Yeah ?Do u want to become a reporter?

      No.

      Most of u guys want air time .

      Not me .I want to be the guy that owns the station that owns the camera .The business is going well , but in order to grow to the next level,I need to stay one step ahead of my competition and take risks.I also need financial support to implement expansion.

        Would u like another margarita ?

        One is enough.

        Thanks for coming out to talk .  The place I'm in now is that I want a relationship with someone I can team up with and share , like we share , the  same job and hours and whatnot .I could go down a laundry list , but u get the idea.

        Yes ,well ,I hope u find someone.

        Here's the thing about that ,Nina. I'm quite certain I already have.

        okay .Let me put this politely . I only came out to dinner with u , Lou , purely as a professional courtesy.

        Thank u .I don't think it's any secret that I've single-handedly raised the unit price of your ratings book.

        Our ratings book price ?

        I'm a very fast learner .well, do u ?

        Yes.

        I recently learned , for instance , that most Americans watch local news to stay informed . I also learned that the average half-hour of Los Angeles television news packs all of its local government coverage including law enforcement , budget ,transportation , education and immigration into 22 seconds.Local crime stories, however  , not only usually led the news , But filled 14 times the broadcast  , averaging five minutes and seven seconds .KWLA relies heavily on such stories .With Los Angeles crime rates going down . I think that makes items like mine particularly valuable . Like rare animals .I can imagine that your needs will increase during next mouth's rating sweeps period .

        Yeah , well , we certainly appreciate what u do .

        There's certain good things about being alone . u have time to do the things u wanna do,like study and plan , but u can't have dinners like this or be physical with s person .I mean , outside of flirtation-ship .

        Where are u going with this ?

        I want that .With u .Like u want to keep your job and your health insurance .

        Look just for starters ,I don't need u to keep my fucking job.

        u're the news director on the vampire shift of the lowest-rated station in Los Angeles .We have what could be considered an almost-exclusive relationship .There are many other places I could go. I have to think that u're invested  in this transaction .

    =========================================

    -Here u are . -wow  - Enjoy . - thank you

      ================================================================

        Where did u get the balls to even suggest something like this ?

        We're still talking .

        No  , there's nothing more to say .

        U can leave.

        Okey, look ,u're down well ,okey ?And we pay u well very well ,we always have .If u like ,I could get u an exclusive retainer .

        That would be on top of your segment fees .除去给你的稿费之外 。I could maybe even get u a job at the station starting as a production assistant .So that u could learn the business from the inside .That's where u said your interests lie. 

        U're not listening Nina.

        I happen to know that u haven't stayed at one station for longer than two years at a time , and u're coming up on two years soon .     

    I can imagine that your contract is for that length of time . And that next month's ratings directly affect that .

    So u're threatening that if I don't...

    I'm negotiating .

    U're threatening to stop selling to me.

    That's your choice .The true  price of any items is what somebody's willing to pay for it .U want something .And I want u.

    To fuck u.

            And as a friend .

    Jesus Christ ,friends don't pressure friends to fucking sleep with them .

    Because as I'm sure u know , a friend is a gift u give yourself .

    lain和laid区别:

    我们先来看下这两个词的动词原型。

    第一,laid是动词lay的过去分词,过去式也是laid。

    第二,lain是动词lie的过去分词,过去式是lay。

    第三,lay又是动词lie的过去式,lied也是lie的过去式。不要混淆!

    也就是:

    lay-laid-laid-laying。

    轻轻或小心的放下,产卵。

    lie-lay-lain-lying躺下。

    lie-lied-lied-lying说谎。

    下面的说法是引用的,十分有趣好记,相信对大家都有帮助!

      【世博资料库】

      今天要和大家聊聊怎样区分lie和lay这两个我们经常搞混的动词,希望这些资料能帮上你的忙。

      首先来看lay(lay----laid----laid----laying),它的主要意思是“产卵”“放置”等,比如:

      The hen is laying an egg.母鸡在下蛋。

      He laid his hands on my shoulder.他把手放在我的肩上。

      lie用作不规则动词(lie----lay----lain----lying)时,表示“躺”“(东西)平放”,“位于”等意,比如:

      He felt tired, so he went and lay down for a rest.

      他感到疲劳,所以去躺下休息了。

      His books lay open on the desk when I went in.

      我进去时,发现他的书平摊在书桌上。

      (这里的lay是lie的过去式。)

      看到这,大家可能会有点迷糊了,为什么同样表达“放”的意思,有时候用lay有时候却用lie呢?

      我们可以这样理解,lay强调动作,而lie强调状态。比如我们要描述一个躺在床上的婴儿,如果要强调妈妈把孩子放在床上的动作,就可以说:Mother laid the baby gently on the bed.如果要强调“孩子是躺在床上的”这种状态,就要说:The baby lying on the bed was my little sister.

      趁热打铁,来做点练习,请看下面的题目,用lay和lie的适当形式填空:

      1、Don't the glass on the corner of the table.别把玻璃杯放在台角上。

      2、The city in the north of China.那座城市位于中国的北部。

      3、He's still in bed.他还躺在床上。

      答案:1、Lay(强调“放”的动作) 2、lies 3、lying(强调“位于”“躺着”的状态)

      如果上面的内容大家都看明白了,我们接着讲lie的第二种意思——说谎。它是个规则动词,所以三态就是lie----lied----lied----lying。造个句子:

      He wasn't telling the truth. He lied again. /He was lying.

      他没讲实话,他又撒谎了。/他在撒谎。

      在表示这一意思时,lie可用作名词。套用上面的句子,“说谎”就可以说成是:tell a lie或tell lies。(千万别说say/talk/speak a lie哦。)人人都痛恨谎言,所以这句话大家一定要学会:I hate lying.或I hate telling lies.(因为hate的用法跟like相似,所以说I hate lie.就不对了。如果说成I hate to lie,就似乎含有“虽然不愿,但仍不得不说谎”之意了。请大家慢慢体会。)

      今天的节目中,我们主要学会了区分lay, lie, lie,顺便记住lay one’s hands on something,意思是“抓住、得到、找出”,craze指“狂潮”或“酷爱”。

    望采纳!
