Katzenberg had been impressed with Jobs's focus on keeping costs under control.
卡曾伯格對喬布斯的成本控制意識印象深刻。
"Even in the early budgeting process, Steve was very eager to do it as efficiently as possible," he said.
“即使是在早期的預算過程中，史蒂夫對成本都非常關注，希望盡量可以低成本髙效率。”他說。
But the $17 million production budget was proving inadequate,
但是迪士尼批準的1700萬美元的預算后來不夠用了，
especially given the major revision that was necessary after Katzenberg had pushed them to make Woody too edgy.
尤其是在卡曾伯格迫使他們把胡迪的個性銳化以后，必須要作很多重大改動。
So Jobs demanded more in order to complete the film right.
所以喬布斯申請更多經費來完成這部電影。
"Listen, we made a deal," Katzenberg told him. "We gave you business control, and you agreed to do it for the amount we offered."
“聽著，我們是說好了的。”卡曾伯格對他說，“我們把運營控制權給了你，你也同意了我們提出的資金規模。”
Jobs was furious. He would call Katzenberg by phone or fly down to visit him and be,
喬布斯大發雷霆。他給卡曾伯格打電話或干脆飛去找他，
in Katzenberg's words, "as wildly relentless as only Steve can be."
用卡曾伯格的話說，“只有喬布斯能那么瘋狂地沒完沒了。”
Jobs insisted that Disney was liable for the cost overruns
喬布斯堅持說，迪士尼應該對成本超出預算負責，
because Katzenberg had so badly mangled the original concept that it required extra work to restore things.
是卡曾伯格把最初的構思攪得一團糟，因此才需要做額外的返工。
"Wait a minute!" Katzenberg shot back. "We were helping you.
“等一等！”卡曾伯格反擊道，“我們是在幫你。
You got the benefit of our creative help, and now you want us to pay you for that."
你得益于我們那么富有創造性的幫助，而你現在卻要讓我們因此付錢給你。”
It was a case of two control freaks arguing about who was doing the other a favor.
兩個控制狂互不相讓，爭論到底誰幫了誰的忙。
