Hi! I'm currently working on an episode of my podcast Loose Lead Celluloid that is touching on Walt Disney's rumored Spanish ancestry, and need help translating two passages of the article "¿Tiene Disney sangre andaluza?" from El Mundo. Any help would be greatly appreciated and credit will of course be given.
Passage 1: «Estoy cansado de decir que eso de que soy hermano de Walt Disney son invenciones, pero, por lo que se ve, voy a tener que seguir desmintiéndolo. Lo que sí le aseguro es que todo esto no provoca en mi nada especial. Ningún sentimiento, ni bueno ni malo, ninguna emoción. Simplemente le doy la importancia que tiene, que para mí es ninguna», explica Carrillo con el tono cordial y pausado que probablemente se deriva de tener 79 años y vivir en una casa apacible y hermosa al pie de la playa.
Passage 2: «Poco después de 1940 vinieron a Mojácar unos periodistas de una revista de cine, llamada Primer Plano, que entonces estaba preparando su primer número. Los periodistas habían oído hablar de la visita de dos americanos que buscaban una partida de nacimiento que podía estar relacionada con Walt Disney y vinieron hasta aquí para investigar el asunto. Se entrevistaron con mi padre y él, que le gustaba mucho divertirse, se lo tomó a risa , les siguió la corriente, y les dijo que sí a todo lo que ellos querían oír», explica Diego. «También el alcalde de entonces, don Jacinto Alarcón, dio alas a todas estas invenciones. ¡Con tal de que se hablara de Mojácar...!».
Article in spanish, by El Mundo
Used Google to translate the article and arranged a few bits but I don't speak spanish so any help to edit this thing is welcome.
Thought this put the rumours into perspective, even though it is not entirely surprising...
>Brawl by Mendes: Madrid will not pay the bill in the 'Cristiano case'
>The agent filters Ronaldo's desire to leave Spain to pressure the club, who refuses to assume the possible fine for the player's tax fraud and warns: "We will not hold anyone against his will"
>The story started on Friday : "Cristiano Ronaldo wants to leave Spain", published the Portuguese sportspaper A Bola. "Irreversible". "He has informed the president of Real Madrid." The reason? The newspaper notes that the player is "outraged" by the tax investigation, by accusation of the Spanish Prosecutor's Office of fraud worth 14.7 million. The information was set as a bomb in the news. As scandalous as it was, it seemed short-lived, however ... No one turned the fuse off. On the contrary, the battlefield was defined with the armies - they are the most powerful in their fields: club, representation and player - firm in their positions. The bomb news points to a soap opera. This continued on Friday, in the least predictable way, without a denial statement. Ronaldo, concentrated with his selection in Russia for the Confederations Cup, that begins this Saturday, did not deny the information. Neither did Gestifute, the agency that advises him, although, of course, Jorge Mendes, the Portuguese super-agent, well related to A Bola, is the first interested in the filtered information. But, the most revealing of the day was the position of Real Madrid, which can be summed up in a "we are not going to go crazy."
>"The club will not hold anyone against their will," they go on to say, underlining the nuance: they want Cristiano's to continue with them, they even need it, for sporting and advertising reasons - but no more than what the player needs Madrid to continue winning titles that attract brands. A game has been established that is not played by two opponents, but rather three, since there are suspicions among actors before intimate.
