The names of birds intersect above the Atlantic, between the director of the Department of American government efficiency Elon Musk and the French businessman Xavier Niel. “I think it is the biggest entrepreneur in the world, and alongside that a boy that we will qualify at least a complex, and I will use a difficult word, perhaps sometimes an asshole, that’s it.” Thus released the latter on Télématin Monday, February 10. The extract has been relayed dozens of times on X, obviously causing a full -bodied response from Elon Musk.
“This guy is a pimp”
“This guy was sent to prison for having been a real pimp with a group of prostitutes! Let me laugh,” said Tesla and SpaceX, owner of X and investor in artificial intelligence. Xavier Niel, owner of the Iliad group, founder of the operator Free and the F (largest incubator of start-ups in the world), and founder of the Kyutai IA research laboratory, had actually been indicted for pimping in 2005 , and had spent a month in detention before a dismissal was made in his favor. He had nevertheless been sentenced to two years in prison sentence and 250,000 euros fine for concealment of abuse of corporate goods in 2006.
The verbal game does not stop there. “We will settle this to the LIDL”, ended up responding to the tone of mockery and provocation Xavier Niel, in reference to his exchange with a surfer who had given him an appointment in Marseille, last, for a “One against one”. “Xavier Niel I hate you, I offer you a 1V1 in front of the Lidl on rue Sainte,” then wrote a man named Fuego. “I am waiting for you,” reacted the billionaire, posting a photo of him, looking threatening, in front of the store in question.
