A 48-year-old Chinese restaurant worker, Ma Jianping, draws large crowds of fans who come to take selfies and meet him in person after a video of him went viral online. Multiple reports say the attention started when a clip showing him serving food at his restaurant circulated on Chinese social media, where some viewers compared his appearance to Elon Musk. Since then, Ma has been “mobbed” by people eager to see him and pose for photos. The reports describe the reactions as focused on his resemblance to the Tesla chief executive, with visitors seeking brief personal contact such as handshakes and photo opportunities. The coverage frames the popularity as a result of social media virality around his likeness, rather than any official connection to Tesla or Musk. The articles do not indicate that Ma Jianping has sought or arranged the attention; instead, it appears to be driven by online commentary and the resulting public interest in meeting him.
