篇章：三起两落一场大病
虽然看的创业类人物传记书籍不多，但是Elon的起落和那些年看的偶像剧中情节如此雷同：白手起家，取得成功后被公司里其他股东密谋取缔，连剧中察觉局势不对秘密通报的衷心小弟都有！
He chatted up some of the best engineers at the company to get a feel for who might be willing to join him in another venture. Musk also bounced his ideas off some contacts he's made at the bank in Canada. .... And in March, Musk incorporated X.com, a finance start-up with a pornographic-sounding name
#thought# 想起"Do or die and don't give up "，无法复制别人的成功，但是佩服学习Elon的行动力。目标明确没有迟疑，招兵秣马，挖洞积粮，一月份Zig2寻找买家二月卖出，三月份Elon就建立了自己公司。神速，给人一种建立公司很容易的错觉。不否认先前的创业经历有很大的促进作用，但Elon 的行动力让我敬佩。牛人三四个月就成立了公司，想到啥立即就行动，拖延派的各种借口如何站得住脚。读完的时候自己觉得好累呀，全程有一种没有些许喘息的机会，莫名感受到他超负荷工作的高压，替他累。就连自己的蜜月都能度成“劫”真是哭笑不得。感觉Elon想一个大大的钟摆，无论起落，都是在自己节奏之中，都记得自己抱负。
