A man of Asian appearance, known on the Internet as Yi Long Musk Due to his uncanny resemblance to the American tycoon Elon Musk, he has become even more famous after a series of videos in which he greets Internet users as if he were the billionaire.
The man’s appearance caught the attention of many people, including a Twitter user, @TokyoDilf, who shared a recording showing the “celebrity” in what appears to be an underground car park and next to a black car. There the protagonist claims he is the “Chinese Elon Musk” and who wants to make friends. Musk’s doppelganger also encourages users to leave their questions and comments.
The Internet user who published the video pointed out that the two “they are identical” and suggested that they could probably be exchanged. In response, another user confirmed that their resemblance, in fact, is “uncanny”.

On the Instagram platform (social network belonging to the Meta company, classified as an extremist organization in Russia, where it is prohibited) a video appears in which the businessman’s double is seen, again next to a black car, where he introduces himself as Elon Musk and say hello “everyone”. The publication has accumulated more than a million ‘likes’.
However, the uncanny resemblance of the Asian man to the Tesla boss also raised suspicions on social networks. Thus, some pointed out that it is a “deepfake” or deep falsification, and assured that the images had been altered by computer.
