朱晓彤，正在特斯拉兑现自己的黄金时代。 这个出生在沈阳的80后（Tom Zhu），原本只是负责中国充电桩网络建设的中层，如今却成了马斯克最信任的"战时将领"，手里攥着让人咋舌的财富筹码。 短短三年，这位特斯拉全球制造掌门人，靠着行权和减持，已经从马斯克和特斯拉身上变现了超850万美元的现金，还握有市值逾2000万美元（约合1.5亿人 民币）的股票，以及一份未来潜在价值高达数亿美元的股权激励。 讽刺的是，就在马斯克在X上放话"如果他们不在特斯拉实现规模化自动驾驶前平仓，他们会被彻底击垮"时，包括朱晓彤在内的他的左膀右臂们却在大举套 现离场。他们的"落袋为安"和其创始人豪赌未来的姿态，构成了鲜明的对比。 这背后不只是一个人暴富的故事，更说明了特斯拉业绩承压、高管集体减持、股东信心波动的现实，也勾勒出马斯克用股权激励捆绑高管、却难以阻止他们 兑现的无奈。 这种无奈中藏着马斯克的"长远算盘"。马斯克总说地球早晚会有"生存风险"，比如气候问题、资源耗尽，所以"把人类送到火星定居"才是他的伟大目标。 为了这个目标，他手里的公司没一个是"单打独斗"的，反而像串珠子，凑成了一套"火星闭环"：SpaceX专门造星舰，相当于未来 ...

前言 中国主动释放善意，7月稀土出口暴增75%，用实际行动为中美关系降温。 美国的回应却让人大跌眼镜，先是使馆公然叫嚣"敌对国家"，接着制裁企业，最后连留学生都不放过。 拿到稀土就翻脸，美国这波操作暴露了什么？中美关系走到了哪一步？ 75%暴增送稀土，换来三记闷棍 7月一个数字震惊了华盛顿。 5577吨稀土磁铁涌向美国，75%的暴增幅度创下年内新高，这是中国海关总署8月20日公布的官方数据。 这个数字意味着什么？要知道稀土就像工业"味精"，看着不起眼，却是每个高科技产品都离不开的核心材料。从F-35战斗机到特斯拉电动车，从iPhone到风 力发电机，全都要用到中国稀土。 中国掌握着全球90%的稀土加工能力，这可不是谁想替代就能替代的。 更关键的是，这批稀土的主要买家德国、美国和越南中，很多运到越南的产品只是"过个手"，最终还是流向了美国企业。 从5月到7月，中国对美稀土出口呈现阶梯式增长：46吨、353吨、619吨，每个月都在加码。 这清楚说明，美国对中国稀土的依赖已经深深扎根在全球供应链的每一个环节里。中国这次是拿出了十足的诚意。 但这份诚意，华盛顿似乎并不买账。 就在稀土数据公布前后，美国对中国连续出了三 ...
