[Global Network Report] Tesla CEO Elon Musk has asked everyone to guess the riddle again.
On April 20th local time, Musk posted on social media Twitter: He added a sentence "is the Night" after a dotted line. As for what to fill in the spaces in the dotted line, based on the report from Taiwan’s United News Network and Bloomberg on the 20th, there are speculations that the billionaire may want to fill in “Tender”. This allusion comes from the autobiographical novel "Tender is the Night" of contemporary American writer Fitzgerald.
Bloomberg explained in the report that if Twitter's board of directors rejects Musk's proposal to acquire 100% of Twitter's shares and privatize it, he will initiate a tender offer on Twitter's shares.
However, Bloomberg said the answer may also be "Tonight" because there are 7 underscores in the blank space and 7 English letters may need to be filled in.
Bloomberg said that Musk's style on social media platforms often uses online emoticons and metaphors to express his ideas. Earlier, he tweeted "seize the memes of production" at the time between his first investment in Twitter and the SEC filings to disclose his stake. "United News Network" explained that this actually rewrites Karl Marx's "own the means of production".
reported that there is another possibility that Musk likes the number 420, and this number is related to cannabis, because April 20 is International Cannabis Day. "United News Network" said that the date of Musk's latest tweet was April 20, which may also mean something. Under Musk's related tweets, netizens who commented the most, reposted and liked the most also considered "4/20".
After purchasing 9.2% of the shares and becoming Twitter's largest shareholder, Musk proposed on the 14th of this month to spend $43 billion to fully acquire the company. In the past few days, Musk has had many disagreements with Twitter management. When he did not enter the board of directors as agreed before, many media expected that he might maliciously acquire Twitter, but they did not expect that the two sides would enter the "final battle" so soon.
Last year, Musk posted the Chinese "Seven-Step Poem" on social media Twitter, which caused netizens to make hot guesses. On November 2, 2021, Musk published the "Seven-Step Poem" written by Cao Zhi, a poet of Wei during the Three Kingdoms period in Chinese, "Boil beans and burn the bean pods, and beans cry in the pot. They were originally born with the same root, so why are they too anxious to fry each other?" On the same day, he publicly responded to the "forced donation" by UN officials. Some public opinion speculated at the time that this was a response from Musk, the world's richest man, to charitable donations.
