P.T. 巴纳姆：奋斗与胜利·补录 446
P.T. 巴纳姆《奋斗与胜利》· Struggles and Triumphs · 领导
When we went to the Garrick club that day, Albert Smith introduced me to several of his acquaintances as his “teacher in the show business.” As we were quietly dining together, he remarked that I must have recognized several old acquaintances in the anecdotes at his entertainment. Upon my answering that I did, “indeed,” he remarked, “you are too old a showman not to know that in order to be popular, we must snap up and localize all the good things which we come across.” By thus engrafting his various experiences upon this Mont Blanc entertainment, Albert Smith succeeded in serving up a salmagundi feast, which was relished alike by royal and less distinguished palates.

白话
在加里克俱乐部，史密斯向朋友介绍巴纳姆，说这是“我在表演行业的老师”。两人安静吃饭时，史密斯说巴纳姆一定认出了演出里好几段老相识的轶事。巴纳姆承认后，史密斯说：“你是个老江湖，当然知道要想受欢迎，就得把遇到的好东西抓过来，变成自己的。”他就是靠把各种经历嫁接到勃朗峰演出里，做成一道大杂烩，让王室和普通观众都爱看。核心是：受欢迎的内容往往不是凭空原创，而是善于吸收、改编和本地化。做法是保持敏感，把见到的趣事、人物、场景迅速收进自己的作品，并重新组合。
