Musk's Political 'Flash Crash' in 127 Days: The Business Empire's Ultimate Cash Extraction Method
Musk was 'lightning terminated' from the Trump administration, and his political career hit zero in just 127 days. This isn't a political Waterloo; it's clearly a dog ranch cutting losses and going all-in on the business empire!
First Act: The White House Golden Key Becomes a Hot Potato
At the beginning of the year, Musk took on the high-profile role of 'Minister of Government Efficiency,' slashing the federal budget with a Silicon Valley geek flair, resulting in a 13% drop in Tesla's Q1 sales and a evaporation of $448.3 billion in market value. The most absurd part is this guy was advising Trump while being pressured by his own shareholders to 'get back to work.' At the White House press conference on May 30, before the golden key handed over by Trump even warmed up, Musk turned around and announced a 'return to 7×24 wartime mode,' sleeping in factories and hanging out in server rooms, initiating a business survival mission.
Second Act: Brain-Machine Interfaces + AI Dual-Line Nuclear Explosion
Disappointed in politics, the capital scene went wild! Just as he stepped out of the White House, Neuralink announced the completion of a $650 million Series E funding round, with top VCs like ARK and Sequoia rushing to invest, pushing the valuation to $9 billion. Five paralyzed patients controlled devices through brain-machine chips, while Middle Eastern tycoons queued up to be guinea pigs. Even more astonishing, xAI simultaneously launched a $5.3 billion fundraising effort, with $300 million in employee stock cash-outs and $5 billion in debt financing—this operation is even more thrilling than Tesla's plummeting curve.
Third Act: Tesla's 'Autonomous Driving Coffin Lid'
As BYD is set to surpass in Europe, Musk unleashed his ultimate gambit: on June 12, Robotaxi autonomous taxis were launched in Austin. Ten modified MODEL Y autonomous vehicles were touted as 'zero accident tests,' but the on-chain data revealed otherwise: the installed laser radar was less than one-third of Huawei's ADS, relying solely on eight cameras to tackle L4. The retail investors were all betting: if this succeeds, Tesla's market value could soar back to $2 trillion; if it fails, Musk might have to sleep in the server room until the year 2140.
Fourth Act: AI Computing Power Arms Race
xAI's Memphis data center has stacked 200,000 GPUs, declaring it will invest another 1 million to create a 'computing power nuclear bomb.' Telegram's one billion users are about to have the Grok chatbot integrated, while Microsoft Azure's cloud computing power is undergoing a crazy infusion. The night before the Dogecoin pump, it was also about releasing news first and then accumulating!
Personal opinion: Everyone still needs to rely on the latest real-time news and ponder the situation themselves.
