Eike Batista, named by Forbes the eighth richest man in the world, didn’t like one bit what journalist Diogo Mainardi had to say when Eike gave an interview this Sunday to journalist Lucas Mendes at Manhattan Connection.
* Diogo complained live, straight from Venice, that a spokesperson for the businessman should comply with the time zone, since his intention is to drive his business toward globalization. Diogo claimed to have been awaken by one of Eike’s reps to talk about his participation in the program.
* But Eike’s outrage didn’t stop there. The culmination of tight spot he was in came when Diogo said Eike sold a celebrity image and seemed more like a Regina Duarte than an entrepreneur.
