每日英語跟讀 Ep.K601: Musk and Zuckerberg's Cage Match Challenge Takes Social Media by Storm

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and owner of Twitter, and Mark Zuckerberg, the co-founder of Facebook and CEO of Meta, have caused a stir on social media with their agreement to participate in a cage fight. The exchange began when Musk posted a tweet expressing his willingness to engage in a cage match, to which Zuckerberg responded with a challenge to "send me location." The online community eagerly awaits the outcome of this potential showdown.
特斯拉CEO兼Twitter所有人伊隆·馬斯克以及Facebook聯合創始人、Meta首席執行官馬克·祖克柏，因同意進行一場鐵籠對戰而在社交媒體上引起了轟動。此交流始於馬斯克發布的一條推文，表達了他參與鐵籠對戰的意願，對此，祖克柏回應道：“告訴我地點。”網友們熱切期待這場潛在的對決發展。

Musk suggested the "Vegas Octagon" as the location for the fight, referencing the competition mat used in Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) bouts. The prospect of these two prominent tech billionaires stepping into the ring has generated widespread speculation and excitement. However, Musk's subsequent tweets featuring walruses and humorous remarks about his lack of workout routine have raised doubts about the seriousness of his challenge.
馬斯克提議以“賭城八角籠”作為對戰地點，這是參加終極格鬥冠軍賽（UFC）比賽時使用的競技場。這兩位知名科技億萬富翁走上擂台的前景引起了廣泛的猜測和興奮。然而，馬斯克之後在推文中加入海象的影片以及對他自己缺乏鍛煉的幽默評論，引發了人們對他是否嚴肅看待挑戰的質疑。

While Zuckerberg, aged 39, has been training in mixed martial arts (MMA) and has even won jiu-jitsu tournaments, Musk, who is turning 52 soon, has no prior training in combat sports. Despite this, fight sports journalist Nick Peet believes there is a real possibility that the match could take place due to Musk's eccentric character and his reluctance to back down. Peet favors Zuckerberg, considering his younger age and smaller stature, but acknowledges that Musk's unpredictability adds an element of uncertainty to the potential outcome.
39歲的祖克柏一直在接受綜合格鬥（MMA）訓練，甚至贏得了巴西柔術比賽，而即將52歲的馬斯克在格鬥運動方面沒有任何訓練經歷。儘管如此，格鬥體育記者尼克·皮特相信由於馬斯克古怪的個性和他不願退縮的態度，這場比賽有可能真的發生。皮特支持祖克柏，考慮到他較小的年紀和身材，但他也承認馬斯克的不可預測性給這場對戰的結果增添了不確定性。

This lighthearted exchange between Musk and Zuckerberg comes amidst ongoing competition in the tech industry. Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, recently unveiled plans for a text-based social network that could rival Musk's platform, Twitter. Known as P92, this network may attract users who already follow accounts on Instagram and potentially draw users from decentralized platforms like Mastodon. As the two tech giants engage in a virtual battle, their cage match challenge adds a new dimension to their rivalry.
這場馬斯克和祖克柏之間的輕鬆交流是在科技業不斷的競爭激烈下發生。Meta作為Facebook和Instagram的母公司，最近公布了一個名為P92的基於文本的社交網路計劃，可能與馬斯克的平台Twitter競爭。這個平台可以讓用戶關注他們已經在Instagram上關注的帳號，並可能吸引來自像Mastodon這樣的去中心化平台的用戶。當這兩位科技巨頭進行虛擬戰爭時，這場鐵籠戰為他們之間的競爭增加了新的面向。
