: Roger Friedman, a TV journalist, said: ‘For one year, the prince underwrote : Jackson’s life in Bahrain – everything including accommodation, guests, : security and transportation. And what did Jackson do? He left for Japan and : then Ireland. He took the money and moonwalked right out the door. This is : the real Michael Jackson. He has never returned a phone call from the prince : since he left Bahrain.’ 一位電視記者，Roger Friedman說，「這位王子保證了MJ在巴林一年的生活，所有東西包括住宿，訪客，保全，還有交通。MJ做了什麼?他去了日本然後去愛爾蘭。他拿了錢然後立刻月球漫步走出了門。這是真實的MJ。他離開巴林後從不回王子的電話。」 : Although Jackson settled with the sheikh on the eve of the trial that would : have aired his financial dirty laundry, the settlement only put him that much : deeper into the hole. A hole that kept getting bigger, but that was : guaranteed by Jackson’s half ownership of the copyrights to The Beatles : catalogue. He owned them in a joint venture with record company Sony, which : have kept him from bankruptcy. 雖然MJ在審叛開始前便和王子達成和解，但卻放送了他的財務問題。這和解只是把他更往深洞裡推下去，一個越來越大的洞。不過這個洞是以他所擁有的披頭四50%版權做擔保。他和Sony共同持有披頭四版權，這也是唯一讓他不至破產的原因。 : ‘Jackson is in hock to Sony for hundreds of millions,’ a source told me a : couple of months ago. ‘No bank will give him any money so Sony have been : paying his bills. 「MJ典當給Sony好幾百萬，」一位線民幾個月前告訴我，「沒有一個銀行會給他一毛錢，也因此Sony一直在幫他付帳單。」 : ‘The trouble is that he hasn’t been meeting his obligations. Sony have been : in a position for more than a year where it can repossess Michael’s share of : the [Beatles] catalogue. That’s always been Sony’s dream scenario, full : ownership. 「問題是，MJ沒有盡到他的義務。Sony已經擁有收回這版權的權利超過一年了，這一直都是Sony的夢想，全部的所有權。」 : ‘But they don’t want to do it as they’re afraid of a backlash from his : fans. Their nightmare is an organised 'boycott Sony' movement worldwide, : which could prove hugely costly. It is the only thing standing between : Michael and bankruptcy.’ 「但是他們擔心MJ的歌迷的大反撲所以才沒這麼做。他們的惡夢是全球的拒買Sony，會引起極大的損失。這是唯一將MJ和破產隔離的東西。」 : The source aid at the time that the scheduled London concerts wouldn’t clear : Jackson’s debts – estimated at almost ￡242million – but they would allow : him to get them under control and get him out of default with Sony. : According to two sources in Jackson’s camp, the singer put in place a : contingency plan to ensure his children would be well taken care of in the : event of bankruptcy. 這位線民補充說這時候倫敦演唱會將帶進的將近2.42億英鎊不足以彌補MJ的財務缺口，但是他們可以控制MJ並且讓他脫離對Sony的不履行義務。根據兩位MJ線民指出，MJ有個計劃確保他的孩子即使在他破產後都能好好被照顧。 : ‘He has as many as 200 unpublished songs that he is planning to leave behind : for his children when he dies. They can’t be touched by the creditors, but : they could be worth as much as ￡60million that will ensure his kids a : comfortable existence no matter what happens,’ one of his collaborators : revealed. 「他有兩百首未公開的歌打算死後留給他的孩子。這些歌是無法被他的債主所干涉到的，但是這些歌價值六千萬英鎊，足以給他的孩子無論在任何狀況下都有舒適的生活。」一位和他合作的人指出。 : But for the circle of handlers who surrounded Jackson during his final years, : their golden goose could not be allowed to run dry. Bankruptcy was not an : option. 但對他身邊的策畫者而言，他們的金鵝是不可以被榨光的。破產不在考慮範圍當中。 : These, after all, were not the handlers who had seen him through the : aftermath of the Arvizo trial and who had been protecting his fragile : emotional health to the best of their ability. They were gone, and a new set : of advisers was in place. 這些策畫者畢竟不是那些看他走過Arvizo案之後餘波的那些人，也不是那些盡力保護MJ脆弱的情緒的那些人。那些人已經離開來，新的一批顧問取而代之。 : The clearout had apparently been engineered by his children’s nanny, Grace : Rwaramba, who was gaining considerable influence over Jackson and his affairs : and has been described as the ‘queen bee’ by those around Jackson. : Rwaramba had ties to the black militant organisation, the Nation of Islam, : and its controversial leader, Louis Farrakhan, whom she enlisted for help in : running Jackson’s affairs. 很顯然地，這個清除舊人的事是由他的孩子的保姆，Grace所完成的。她對MJ 還有他的事務有不可小覷的影響力，並且被他週邊的人稱為女王蜂。 Grace和一個激進的黑色組織，The Nation of Islam，有關聯，而它充滿爭議的首領，Louis Farrakhan，是Grace招募來幫她處理MJ事宜的人之一。 : Before long, the Nation was supplying Jackson’s security detail and Farrakhan : ’s son-in-law, Leonard Muhammad, was appointed as Jackson’s business : manager, though his role has lessened significantly in recent years. : In late 2008, a shadowy figure who called himself Dr Tohme Tohme suddenly : emerged as Jackson’s ‘official spokesman’. 很久以前，這組織提供MJ保全，而Farrakha的女婿，Leonard被指定為MJ的商務經理，雖然他這幾年來角色已經越來越舉無輕重。2008末，一個難以捉摸的人自稱Dr. Tohme Tohme突然現身，成為MJ的正式發言人。 : Tohme has been alternately described as a Saudi Arabian billionaire and an : orthopaedic surgeon, but he is actually a Lebanese businessman who does not : have a medical licence. At one point, Tohme claimed he was an ambassador at : large for Senegal, but the Senegalese embassy said they had never heard of : him. Tohme曾被描述為沙烏地阿拉伯的富豪以及整型外科醫生，但他事實上是一位黎巴嫩的生意人，根本沒有醫療執照。Tohme曾宣稱他是塞內加爾的無指定任務大使，但塞內加爾大使館說他們從未聽過他這個人。 : Tohme’s own ties to the Nation of Islam came to light in March 2009, when : New York auctioneer Darren Julien was conducting an auction of Michael : Jackson memorabilia. Tohme自己和Nation of Islam的聯結在2009年3月浮現，當紐約拍賣家Darren Julien在籌辦MJ的重要事物拍賣會時。 : Julien filed an affidavit in Los Angeles Superior Court that month in which : he described a meeting he had with Tohme’s business partner, James R. : Weller. According to Julien’s account, ‘Weller said if we refused to : postpone [the auction], we would be in danger from 'Farrakhan and the Nation : of Islam; those people are very protective of Michael'. Julien在該月的洛杉磯高等法院口供指出他和Tohme的生意夥伴James見過面。他形容，「James說如果我們不推遲這一個拍賣會，我們會遭受Farrakhan和 the Nation of Islam的威脅和危險中。這些人對MJ非常關切地保護。」 : He told us that Dr Tohme and Michael Jackson wanted to give the message to us : that 'our lives are at stake and there will be bloodshed'.’ 「他告訴我們Tohme和MJ想要傳送給我們一個訊息:我們的性命在危急之中，而且將會有一場流血殺人事件。」 === 今天就先翻到這裡，太長了，好累，越翻越像眼博士翻的鬼東西。有網友可以再接力就更好囉。謝謝網友指正我的翻譯錯誤。不接受媒體複製。媒體欲引述須徵得我的同意。大家晚安，夢裡見MJ。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 123.110.169.40
