Biden slams Elon Musk's 'super bad feeling' on economy with 'trip to the moon' wisecrack
President Joe Biden responded to Elon Musk's comments about having a "super bad feeling" about the economy with a sarcastic quip about the $Tesla(TSLA.US)$'s chief's "trip to the moon."
总统乔·拜登已回复埃隆·马斯克的用一句讽刺的俏皮话评论对经济的“超级糟糕的感觉”$特斯拉(TSLA.US)$局长的“月球之旅”。
Musk immediately responded by reminding the president that his administration approved a lunar SpaceX mission.
马斯克立即做出回应，提醒总统，他的政府批准了一项月球太空探索技术任务。
What Happened: During a press conference Friday morning, Biden was asked for his opinion on Musk's negative mood about the economy and the potential layoff of 10% of Tesla's workforce. Biden grinned and responded by pulling a notecard from his jacket pocket and consulting its contents to report that $Ford Motor(F.US)$ is hiring 6,000 new employees — "Union employees, I might add, in the Midwest," Biden said.
发生的事情：在周五上午的新闻发布会上，拜登被问及对马斯克对经济的负面情绪以及特斯拉可能裁员10%的看法。拜登咧嘴笑了笑，从夹克口袋里拿出一张便签卡，查看里面的内容，报告说$福特汽车(F.US)$正在招聘6,000名新员工--拜登说：“我可以补充一句，工会员工在中西部。”
Biden then said $STELLANTIS(STLA.US)$ is "also making investments in electric vehicles," and $Intel(INTC.US)$ is bringing on "20,000 new jobs making computer chips." Biden then restored the note card to his pocket before saying about Musk: "Lots of luck on his trip to the moon."
拜登随后表示$STELLANTIS(STLA.US)$“还在电动汽车领域进行投资”，以及$英特尔(INTC.US)$带来了“2万个制造计算机芯片的新工作岗位”。拜登随后将笔记卡放回口袋，然后对马斯克说：“祝他月球之旅好运。”
What Happened Next: Musk responded to Biden's remarks by tweeting an April 2021 press release from NASA on the Moon-focused Artemis program that announced the selection of Musk's SpaceX for the development of the lander that will safely carry the next two American astronauts to the lunar surface.
接下来发生的事情：马斯克对拜登的言论做出了回应，他在推特上发布了美国国家航空航天局2021年4月发布的关于以月球为中心的阿特弥斯计划的新闻稿，宣布选择马斯克的SpaceX来开发着陆器，该着陆器将安全地将下两名美国宇航员送上月球表面。
"Thanks, Mr. President!" Musk tweeted.
“谢谢，总统先生！”马斯克在推特上写道。
