It was 2018, and the air around Tesla was\u2002filled with existential dread. Whispers became\u2002declarations. Mercedes-Benz confidently predicted its end by\u2002summer. BMW\u2002rejected its mass production plans as wishful thinking. Wall Street took note as well, calling it a \u201cproduction nightmare\u201d that would be Tesla\u2019s death\u2002knell. The\u2002giant, it appeared, was about to topple.<\/p>\n

Then, the unexpected happened: Elon Musk did the one thing that would eventually mute the\u2002naysayers and change the story. He moved into the factory. Not for a photo op, but with his pillow and\u2002indomitable spirit. He rolled up his sleeves and got into the weeds, learning every nut, bolt, and line of code that would ultimately make up the future of\u2002his company.<\/p>\n

What ensued was a metamorphosis, a transformation so radical it confounded\u2002conventional wisdom. Musk was intimately involved, examining each production station by\u2002station, spotting bottlenecks and inefficiencies that had plagued the line. He had no fears of rewriting the software code mid-flight, shorts-circuiting\u2002bureaucracies into the pursuit of progress. Those with less-than-stellar vision for the future had no chance of staying in the\u2002job as they were replaced by managers with the same burning desire to win as he had. He terrorized the suppliers, calling at 3 in the morning to\u2002ensure he could get some crucial part. I saw him one night where he was found, covered in grease, slowly repairing a Model 3 that the engineers said he couldn\u2019t\u2002do.\u201d His message was\u2002crystal clear: \u201cEither we fix it or we die.\u201d<\/p>\n

As production numbers dribbled\u2002in, the derisive laughter that had echoed through the auto industry started to fade. And although 879 cars were produced in total, only a modest 202 Model 3s made their way off\u2002the line in the first week. By\u2002the third month, that figure had jumped to 5,000 a week. By the end of the year, Tesla posted its first profitable\u2002quarter. The unthinkable had happened.<\/p>\n

Tesla had survived \u2014 and\u2002it was more powerful than ever before. That mocked start-up was now\u2002a major player, a disruptor that made stalwarts of the automotive industry shudder. \u201cIt was a very painful time. I don\u2019t know, but I\u2002was probably a little crazy,\u201d Musk would say later, understating the monumental effort that had salvaged his company.<\/p>\n

These old automakers had advantages that Tesla could only\u2002dream of: a century\u2019s worth of foot prints on the ground, billions of dollars in cash in the bank, well-oiled global supply chains and ingrained political connections. But now Volkwagen is working on Tesla and is about\u2002to catch it, today Tesla\u2019s valuation exceeds Toyota, GM, Ford and BMW combined.<\/p>\n

Within a few years, he had taken a company that was on its deathbed and turned it into an automotive giant, showing the world that sometimes ruthless determination, a big dream, and a willingness to roll\u2002up your sleeves can change an entire industry. And so the world biggest giant teaches that not and it\u2019s not so much about technological marvels, more about an indomitable human will to not bow before the sceptics, as well as the impossibility of\u2002what awaits. It\u2019s a tribute to the power of unshakable faith and\u2002the transformative nature of total commitment.<\/p>\n
