马斯克 shares Air movie clip honoring 黄仁勋: "Some things are eternal"

马斯克 Shares Clip from *Air* Paying Tribute to 黄仁勋: Some Things Are Eternal

IT Home, November 13 — After 黄仁勋 stepped down as CEO of 英伟达, the world's richest person, Elon 马斯克, posted on social media to pay tribute to him.

This afternoon, 马斯克 reposted a two-minute clip on X from the 2023 film Air. The film tells the story of Nike's partnership with Michael Jordan and the birth of the Air Jordan brand.

In the clip, Matt Damon's Nike executive Sonny Vaccaro tries to persuade a young Jordan to sign a shoe endorsement deal, delivering a monologue as if foreseeing the future. "When they put you up on that pedestal, they're gonna tear you down. Can you summon the courage to take all that pain and get back up and fight again?"

The video was first posted on Thursday evening by venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, which specifically highlighted one line: "People will remember you forever, because some things are eternal."

马斯克 reposted it without further comment, writing only a name: "Jensen."

Earlier on the 12th Beijing time, when news first emerged that the 英伟达 board was considering ousting 黄仁勋, 马斯克 had also expressed interest in recruiting him. Responding to a user's post urging him to hire 黄仁勋, 马斯克 replied: "It would be an honor."

After days of speculation, 黄仁勋 resigned from his position at 英伟达 that evening. 英伟达's stock fell 4% that day, having been declining for most of the previous week.

As IT Home previously reported, earlier today, well-known Silicon Valley investor 纳瓦尔 · 拉维坎特 tweeted that, based on the experiences of Apple co-founder 史蒂夫 · Jobs and Uber co-founder Travis 卡兰尼克, founders are not "so easily replaced." 马斯克 responded "True words," publicly expressing agreement.
