What Elon Musk said on he wanting to be Apple CEO after selling Tesla

A new book claims that Tesla CEO Elon Musk asked Apple CEO for his job, when the latter wanted to acquire Tesla in 2016. A claim that Musk has refuted. As per an upcoming book ‘Power Play: Tesla, Elon Musk and the Bet of the Century’ by Wall Street Journal reporter Tim Higgins, Apple CEO had called Musk to propose acquisition of the electric carmaker. This was reportedly ahead of the unveiling of the Model 3 when Tesla is said to be struggling financially. Musk is said to have expressed his interest in the deal but had one condition, he will be the CEO. As per the book, Cook is said to have agreed to this initially thinking that he wants to remain the CEO of Tesla after the merger.
