The American Kill Line: I Can Predict the Future

June 29th is the listing date.

This marks Musk's first real journey from the very beginning to ringing the Nasdaq bell.

It's not just a feeling of pride, but also a great deal of responsibility and pressure.

For this reason, Musk has been aggressively promoting Tesla recently.

Even when participating in variety shows and interviews that he finds boring, and listening to the other party's various stupid taunts, he tries his best to keep smiling and talk to people about Tesla's future and prospects.

The dinner was held at the Plaza Hotel in New York.

Many celebrities, tycoons, and numerous Hollywood stars and A-list actors were invited.

Musk extended an invitation immediately after receiving news that Ron was returning to New York.

His feelings about this Wall Street investment upstart were quite complex.

The last time I saw him was a month ago.

At that time, Ron was just a lucky nouveau riche in his eyes.

Life is unpredictable. In just one month, the other party's wealth surpassed that of himself.

He's a businessman, and he actually looks down on those who become rich through speculation in the financial markets.

But there's nothing we can do; they're really rich.

Let's not even talk about the exaggerated 10 billion reported in the newspapers; it should at least be 100 billion US dollars.

Given Tesla's current valuation of $17 billion, Ron, who controls a billion dollars in cash, is definitely someone he needs to befriend.

Upon learning of Ron's arrival, Musk rushed over to greet him.

"Ron, I didn't expect you to actually come. You're very welcome."

Elon Musk went up and gave Ron a hug to show their relationship.

Ron feigned displeasure and said, "You didn't think that when I said I was optimistic about Tesla's future, it was just a polite remark, did you?"

"You are the most legendary investor on Wall Street. Your vision has never been wrong, just like my unhesitating subscription to the fund you founded." Musk took the opportunity to praise you.

It both showcases his relationship with Ron and emphasizes Tesla's prospects.

The two chatted as they walked, appearing to outsiders like longtime friends.

In reality, both of them had ulterior motives.

One of them was thinking about how to get the hedge fund to help boost Tesla's stock price after it went public.

One person is thinking about how to buy more Tesla stock before the lock-up period expires.

"Ron, this is Kate, Kate Upton. Don't let her young age fool you; she's just turned 18, but she's already an IMG artist and a promising darling of the fashion world."

Musk acted like a pimp, introducing Ron to the entire super bowling alley based on his preferences.

They even specifically pointed out the other person's age.

(Guys, I can't upload the swimsuit photos, can someone please send me some?)

Ron looked at the model, who was wearing high heels and was almost as tall as him.

She has a voluptuous figure, which is completely different from the currently popular thin beauty standard.

It could even be said that this physique is rare in the modeling world.

"Kate, he's my good friend, Ron. He's the most legendary investor on Wall Street right now, and the most insightful investor I've ever met. Even Paramount Pictures is approaching Ron with a superhero project."

Musk is also quite interested in bowling, especially with this new ball.

He had originally prepared it for himself, but now that he was introducing it to Ron, he felt a little reluctant to part with it.

Worried that Ron might go too far, he whispered in Ron's ear, "Her uncle is a Michigan state representative."

No wonder he looked so proud… Ron raised his champagne glass and waved:

"Kate, has anyone ever told you that you should actually have gone to Hollywood?"

Musk's introduction immediately attracted the attention of many actresses around him.

They weren't interested in any legendary Wall Street investors.

Paramount is quite familiar with superhero projects.

It is no exaggeration to say that almost all the actresses present had auditioned for superhero roles.

At the same time, they also knew what the female lead of a superhero meant to them.

"Thank you!" Kate composed herself, noticing several women crowding towards them. As their glasses clinked, she quickly composed herself and said softly:

"Ron? May I call you that? Or should I address you as Mr.?"

Her attitude changed drastically before and after, and her acting was terrible.

It's almost immediately obvious that she was being deliberate.

But the girl's cute appearance makes it easy for people to overlook this small detail.

Moreover, she also has a large bowling ball, and her uncle is a congressman, so she has two identities combined.

Ron could even imagine what position to use to play this bowling match.

He feigned displeasure and replied, "Mr.? Do I look old?"

"I'm sorry, I think I said something wrong, Ron, do you mind?" Kate asked nervously.

Ron nodded seriously: "Yes, I mind."

"Then what should we do?" Kate looked worried, her head bowed and her chest drooping. She blinked her big eyes. "You know, I'm still young and don't really understand the world of big shots like you."

Her uncle's position as a congressman ensures that she won't be easily pressured by others.

But only there.

Just like Victoria's Secret's doors won't open just because her uncle is a congressman.

If she could play the female lead in a superhero movie, her career would take a big leap forward.

Of course, this is all predicated on whether the man is truly as capable as Musk claims.

It's enough to make Paramount beg for investment.

"You're not young..." Ron's lips curled into a smile: "It's alright, it's not your fault, maybe I was too serious."

"Really? Ron, someone once said you're really understanding."

Kate's eyes lit up, and she said in a slightly coquettish tone:

"Ron, although I haven't seen any reports about you, to receive such attention from Elon, you must be a very discerning investor. Could you tell me some of your legendary stories?"

As she spoke, she took a small half-step forward.

Only then did she take a good look at the man.

Strong, young, and confident.

She has a very powerful aura.

Compared to him, the owner of the listed company next to him seemed more like an ordinary wealthy man.

Kate is now starting to believe that this man is truly capable.

Speaking of Elon, Musk stood to the side, speechless, and said with a wry smile, "Should I leave?"

Kate and Ron exchanged a smile.

Ron glanced at Musk sideways: "I thought you were gone a long time ago."

Kate smiled sweetly and said, "Elon, you're eager to know what happens next?"

"NO! I don't want to."

Musk left looking annoyed, feeling a bit sour inside.

Ron and Kate watched him leave and smiled at each other again.

It gives off a feeling of mutual affection between the two men.

Noticing that a daring bitch was approaching, Kate immediately became wary.

She frowned slightly, glancing at the night view outside the French windows:

"Although I've been in New York for almost two years, I still haven't really seen the city's night view properly."

She turned her head slightly, her delicate face lifted a little, and said with expectant eyes, "Ron, can you come with me to take a look?"

Ron shrugged: "While I think the city is awful, I must say it's beautiful at night, especially from a high vantage point."

"Really? Then what are we waiting for? You need to tell me more about it. I have a terrible sense of direction and often get lost, especially in New York."

"The roads in New York are indeed bad, and I sometimes get lost. But that's okay, the Hudson River will guide us."

"Ron, you're so cultured. I can't wait to hear your legend."

"Hahaha……"

No man can resist a young girl gazing at him with eyes full of adoration.

Even if the other party has their intentions written all over their face.

The night was enchanting.

A warm evening breeze blew into the presidential suite of the Plaza Hotel.

Her graceful figure was faintly visible in the hazy night.

"You may not know this, but I learned to ride a horse in Florida when I was 7 years old and won an equestrian championship."

Kate tied her loose hair up: "So, my cowboy, watch closely, I'm a very good rider!"
