🌺Disney’s Bet on Mulan and the Economics of Streaming
《花木蘭》直接登上Disney+，這部要價近900元的電影能幫迪士尼賺錢嗎？


🏹In the latest pandemic-inspired Hollywood shake-up, Walt Disney Co. on Tuesday said it would offer its live-action remake of “Mulan” for sale Sept. 4 exclusively on its new streaming service, Disney+, at about $30 a pop, instead of in theaters as planned.
華特迪士尼公司4日表示，將於9月4日在其新的串流媒體服務Disney+獨家上線真人翻拍版電影《花木蘭》（Mulan），收費約30美元（約台幣880元），而不是按原計劃在電影院上映。這是新冠疫情引發的最新一項好萊塢變革。

-inspire: 刺激、引發
-remake: 翻拍
-a pop: 一張、一個，意思同 a piece
✍常見用法：tickets at $10 a pop 一張票10美元

🦜Other studios have moved movie premieres online in recent months—winning few friends among theater operators. But none has done so in this particular way, as a premium-priced add-on for streaming customers already paying a monthly fee for otherwise all-you-can-eat entertainment.
近幾個月來，其他電影公司也紛紛將影片首映搬到了網上，這種做法招致影廳營運商不滿。但迪士尼把這部電影作為附加服務提供給串流媒體用戶，且定價不低，這些用戶已經為套餐型娛樂服務支付每月訂閱費，到目前為止，還沒有一家電影公司採用過如此特別的方式在網路首映。

-翻譯技巧：“winning few friends among theater operators”
原句直譯為「在影廳營運商中贏得很少朋友」，太過直覺且不符合中文語境。此時我們可以換另一個角度思考原文想傳達什麼意思，將「贏得很少朋友」轉化為「招致不滿」，兼顧英文原意且更符合中文邏輯。

-premium-priced: 高訂價
✍常見用法：add/pay a premium 支付溢價、加價


🏮For now, though, it’s unclear whether Disney’s move was a one-time response to extenuating circumstances created by a global public-health crisis, as Chief Executive Bob Chapek suggested Tuesday on a conference call with Wall Street analysts, or a sign of things to come.
不過，目前尚不清楚迪士尼此舉是對全球公共衛生危機造成的特殊環境所做的一次性反應，還是未來模式的一個訊號。迪士尼首席執行長Bob Chapek 於4日在與華爾街分析師的電話會議上暗示是前者。

-one-time response: 一時反應
-extenuate: 減輕、緩和
-conference call, con-call: 電話會議


🥇Debuting a $200 million movie on a proprietary, premium video-on-demand service is without precedent, so there’s no clear way to estimate how online sales of Disney’s “Mulan” would stack up against a hypothetical run in theaters.
在專用的優質影片點播服務首映一部製作成本2億美元的電影是史無前例的，因此沒有明確方法來估算，若與假設的影院放映情況相比，《花木蘭》線上銷售情況會如何。

-proprietary: 專用的、專有的
-without precedent: 前無來者、史無前例，同 unprecedented
-stack up:累積、疊高，此處指「推動銷售量」
