Arnold Schwarzenegger took center stage at Thursday’s opening of the Beijing International Film Festival, thanking Chinese fans for their embrace of his movies, touting the increasing importance of the Chinese market, and promising “I’ll be back” within months to promote “Terminator Genisys.”

　　周四，北京国际电影节拉开了帷幕，阿诺德·施瓦辛格成为了舞台的焦点：他感谢了中国粉丝对他电影的热烈欢迎，迎合着越来越重要中国市场，并且承诺，为了宣传《终结者：创世纪》，他在几个月内会“强势回归”。

　　The former California governor, whose “Sabotage” is opening in China next week, made a splash on the red carpet, signing autographs and telling fans he kept fit by working out twice a day and playing chess.

　　这名主演电影《破坏者》(电影将于下周于中国上映)的前加利福尼亚州长在红毯上大放异彩，忙着亲笔签名并告知粉丝他一天工作两次，下下象棋，身体很健康。

　　Bounding onto the stage at the opening ceremony just after the vice minister of propaganda delivered a raft of statistics about China’s booming movie market, the deeply tanned, 67-year-old action star said that when he wanted to promote “Conan the Barbarian” around the world 30 years ago, Universal Pictures executives said he only needed to go to England, and maybe France or Italy.

　　宣传部副部长刚递交了大量中国电影市场兴兴向荣的数据后，施瓦辛格就空降北京电影节开幕式了。这名皮肤晒得黑黑的67岁动作影星说道，30年前，当他想要全球宣传《野蛮人柯南》的时候，环球影业的执行长们说：他只要去英格兰宣传一下就好了，可能再去去法国和意大利。

　　“Studio executives now recognize that two-thirds of the money is made overseas, not in America,” he said.

　　“电影制片长的高管们如今发现了，其实票房的2/3来自海外市场，而不是美国本土，”他说。

　　With the Beijing festival now in its fifth year and China’s movie market the No. 2 in the world behind North America, government organizers have sought to lift the event’s profile, professionalism and glamour this year. The opening ceremony, broadcast live in both Mandarin and English, was held at a striking new international convention center in the north of Beijing – never mind that it didn’t actually include a film screening.

　　北京国际电影节已经举办了5届，而中国的电影市场成为了世界第二大市场，仅次于北美，政府主办方今年力求电影节的盛况、专业度和魅力值都上升一个台阶。开幕仪式全程中英文现场直播，在北京北部的一个引人瞩目的新国际会议中心举办——更不用说还没有包含在内的电影放映式。
