埃罗尔·马斯克中国行——在特斯拉喝黑咖啡，到蔚来点卡布奇诺

Brief (coffeeyo.com): Earlier this month, Errol Musk — father of Elon Musk — began a two-week trip to China. By the itinerary, his visit started in Guangzhou and ended with his departure from Shanghai on September 22, with coffee woven throughout: black coffee at a Tesla center, and cappuccino at a NIO lounge.

Earlier this month, Errol Musk — father of Elon Musk — began a two-week trip to China. By the itinerary, his visit started in Guangzhou and ended with his departure from Shanghai on September 22.

On September 9, Errol Musk arrived in Guangzhou. On September 10, his first stop was the Tesla center on Yingbin Road in Panyu, Guangzhou. A Tesla owner at the scene recognized him, and the two had an in-depth conversation. Before leaving, Errol had a cup of coffee at the center. Because the center only offered black coffee and he personally preferred cappuccino, he used the free sugar and milk foam on site to mix his own, sat down to savor it slowly, and then left.

On September 11, Errol experienced the fast battery-swap service at a NIO swap station. Station staff coordinated in advance with his entourage, received him warmly, and made special arrangements. The group then settled in at the NIO House cafe. Errol ordered a cappuccino and said it was very authentic and that he liked it. Cafe staff then proactively asked for a photo, and the exchange ended in a relaxed atmosphere.

During this trip, apart from Tesla, the only automaker he visited was the NIO electric-vehicle swap station. Choosing to tour the NIO swap station and linger at the NIO House, Errol said he had learned beforehand that the NIO House had a cafe and that its cappuccino enjoyed a good reputation.

Errol later commented that Tesla is not an electric-vehicle company but a robotics company; in his view, NIO, by contrast, is a cappuccino-cafe company.

According to reports, Errol Musk’s China trip was entirely in a personal capacity, to explore, learn, and experience the technological strength of “a great power’s intelligent manufacturing”; at the same time, he immersed himself in Chinese folk culture along the way — learning mahjong and practicing tai chi.
