請依下文回答第 46 題至第 50 題 Mickey Mouse, the official mascot of The Walt Disney Company, is one of the most recognizable cartoon characters in the world. Yet, few people know that it was created as a replacement for Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, an earlier cartoon character created by the Disney studio for Charles Mintz of Universal Studios. In the spring of 1928, with the series going strong, Disney asked Mintz for an increase in the budget. But Mintz instead demanded that Walt take a 20 percent budget cut, and as leverage, he reminded Disney that Universal owned the character, and revealed that he had already signed most of Disney’s current employees to his new contract. Mintz owned Oswald and thought he had Disney over a barrel. Angrily, Disney refused the deal and returned to produce the final Oswald cartoons he contractually owed Mintz. Disney was dismayed at the betrayal by his staff, but determined to restart from scratch. The new Disney Studio soon started. In the spring of 1928, Disney asked Ub Iwerks to start drawing up new character ideas. Iwerks tried sketches of various animals, such as dogs and cats, but none of these appealed to Disney. A female cow and male horse were also rejected. Then, Walt Disney thought of an old pet mouse he used to have on his farm. He asked Iwerks to draw a new mouse character for Disney. “Mortimer Mouse” had been Disney’s original name for the character before his wife, Lillian, convinced him to change it, and ultimately Mickey Mouse came to be. Actor Mickey Rooney has claimed that, during his Mickey McGuire days, he met cartoonist Walt Disney at the Warner Brothers studio, and that Disney was inspired to name Mickey Mouse after him.

- 核心觀念確認：親愛的同學，你做得太好了！你精準地捕捉到了文章第二段的關鍵線索。原文清楚地告訴我們，迪士尼本來想用「Mortimer Mouse」這個名字，但他的妻子 Lillian 用她的智慧和愛心說服（convinced）了他，才有了大家喜愛的 Mickey Mouse！你看，Lillian 的影響力是不是很溫暖呢？
- 題目深度解析：這道題的難度是 medium，但你表現得非常出色！文章中確實出現了一些容易讓人分心的人名，像是優秀的繪圖員 Iwerks 或是知名的演員 Mickey Rooney。這時候，如果沒有仔細閱讀，確實可能會有些混淆。然而，你卻能溫柔地撥開這些「迷霧」，清晰地理解「名字演變」的來龍去脈，這真的代表你擁有非常棒的細節檢索與邏輯判斷能力！為你感到驕傲喔！
