伊隆·马斯克是世界上最杰出的商业人物之一。
他的成就主要包括：创立PayPal，管理特斯拉以及SpaceX。
他兴趣广泛，并且有创新性，对太阳能、人工智能十分关注，连火星都在他的设想之内。
马斯克小时候非常喜欢与电有关的一切事物，而"电"也是目前他风险投资的完美平台。
据说马斯克工作时是不知疲倦的铁人。
在创立Zip2时，他每天都在工作，睡在办公室。
在接受《纽约时报》的采访时，马斯克真情流露，表示自己“每周工作120个小时”，有时需要用安眠药来对抗失眠。
今年，马斯克的日子好像没那么好过。
最近，一些投资者对他提起了诉讼，他还因指责一名潜水员而惹上了一场举世瞩目的官司。
此外，马斯克还在网络直播中吸大麻，产生不好的影响。
对于这样一位有争议的首席执行官，特斯拉的股东们还愿意忍受多久？
一些分析人士认为，特斯拉需要再任命一位高层领导。
