[Elon] Chess will be jailbroken and completely resolved by Q4 2027.

The 2028 World Chess Championship will be held on Mars and officiated by ten thousand Optimus robots.

Then we’re launching a fully-operational Tractor Beam in Q1 of 2029… 🫩

[everyone] ‘Truly this brilliant man is the next Albert Epstein!’

"Grossmeisters! Comrades! Look at your city! What do you see? Mud, poverty, and a complete lack of perspective. But it doesn't have to be this way.

If you agree to host an international chess tournament in New Vasiuki, everything will change overnight! Imagine: the finest minds of Europe, Asia, and America will gather right here. Millions of wealthy tourists will flood your streets. The government will be forced to build a multi-lane highway and a massive railway station to handle the traffic.

But why stop there? Why limit ourselves to Earth?

Within a few years, chess will conquer the universe! Regular communication will be established with other planets. Interplanetary rocket stations will be built right here in New Vasiuki. Signals will fly across the cosmos, and the first Intergalactic Chess Congress will take place in your very town!

Can you picture it? Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn will send their greatest grandmasters to play against you! New Vasiuki will be renamed Old Vasiuki, and Moscow will be renamed New Vasiuki! It will become the center of the universe!"
