Trump held a dinner with several top tech company CEOs, and Zuckerberg successfully replaced Musk's position!
On September 4, US President Trump hosted a dinner at the White House National Restaurant, inviting 24 top tech and business leaders, including Mark Zuckerberg (CEO of Meta), Bill Gates (co-founder of Microsoft), and Tim Cook (CEO of Apple), to focus on discussions about artificial intelligence, technological innovation, and related policies.
From the photos released at the scene, Elon Musk, who was once a "close friend" of Trump, was not invited, while Zuckerberg also sat in the position that was originally occupied by Musk next to Trump, fully demonstrating Trump's emphasis on Zuckerberg.
It is worth noting that although Zuckerberg did not support Trump previously, he immediately changed his previous approach after Trump won the election, actively providing financial and practical support for Trump's policy initiatives, and quickly gained Trump's favor.
But to be honest, there are indeed many technology companies in the United States. The 24 tech elites present could be considered on par with Musk. Even though Musk has key technologies in certain areas, he is ultimately not indispensable.
In the end, Musk is not smooth enough; Zuckerberg, who is more skilled in human relations, still has the upper hand.
