Circulating online footage of Elon Musk showing him using his mobile phone to record himself during a high-profile summit event in China has made him the target of online jokes. The moment, captured during a diplomatic and business gathering involving US President Donald Trump and major tech executives including Musk, quickly spread across social media.
The clip drew attention because the billionaire was attending a meeting linked to discussions involving trade and technology relations between the US and China. While public appearances from the SpaceX and Tesla chief routinely generate interest, social media users focused less on the summit itself and more on his behaviour during the event.
