P.T. 巴纳姆:奋斗与胜利·补录 279

P.T. 巴纳姆《奋斗与胜利》· Struggles and Triumphs · 领导

The next morning I started for New York. On arriving at Princeton we met the New York cars, and purchasing the morning papers, I was surprised to find in them a full account of my engagement with Jenny Lind. However, this premature announcement could not be recalled, and I put the best face on the matter. Anxious to learn how this communication would strike the public mind, I informed the conductor, whom I well knew, that I had made an engagement with Jenny Lind, and that she would surely visit this country in the following August.

白话

巴纳姆发现报纸提前泄露了他与珍妮·林德的签约消息,虽然恼火但无法收回,索性将计就计。他主动告诉熟悉的列车员这个合作,并强调林德八月一定会来美国。这样做是为了测试公众反应,同时借机扩散消息、制造期待。遇到计划被提前曝光时,与其否认或慌乱,不如顺势把消息变成宣传,并观察外界反馈来调整后续行动。

上下文

巴纳姆是美国19世纪著名演出经纪人,在自传中回忆他策划瑞典歌唱家珍妮·林德访美巡演的过程。
