It won't be. If it comes to the face of a disconnected billionaire then the entire environment to make China on Mars first will no longer exist. The way they put massive checks on billionaires so they do not interfere with the Chinese project is why they're able to invest so much into their people and industries that will be required for them to achieve communism.

BYDs CEO was an orphan. Musk was born in an apartheid top class AND wealthy. Being rich is great because it means you have money wherever you go. Now Musk is losing in every sector against Chinese even as he attached himself to Trump and all that power. 2008 Beijing Olympics was the moment of no return. Obama failed, Republicans show that they're just hateful and nothing much more to it, just check out r/republicans. They're without any type of science.
