With the news that Tesla will finally invest in Mexico to build the Gigafactory in Nuevo León, the ties between the country and the billionaire will become even closer. The governor of the state, Samuel García and his wife Mariana Rodríguez will ask Elon Musk to be the godfather of Mariel, their eldest daughter.
In an interview for Noon newscast, the president joked about the possibility that the also CEO of SpaceX will become the godfather of Mariel. Samuel explained that he loves the idea, while María Julia Lafuente, the person in charge of the interview, laughingly said that “the godfather bolo is impressive”. For his part, the governor commented that “If I pay Mariel for the race, that’s what I have”.
“Let’s see if my daughter comes out as an astronaut or something mop. He is South African, I don’t know what mentality they have, but imagine that he could reach a little meat: ‘My compadre Elon Musk spoke to me’ ”Samuel added.
It all started from his visit to Nuevo León
Samuel García recalled Musk’s visit to the Mexican state in October, where he narrates that Mariana was the one who liked the billionaire the best.
On the other hand, he revealed that both showed the CEO of Twitter about seven plots of land so that he could choose the one of his preference and install the new Tesla factory there. However, Samuel admits that Elon did not pay attention to him, but to Mariana Rodríguez.
“What is certain is that the one who should ask for it is Mariana. Because he liked her better than me. We came in the helicopter showing the pros and cons of each of the seven terrains and she threw me at the lion. Until we got to LEGO, he already started talking with my wife,” recalled the governor.
The LEGO plant joined the conversation because both Mariana and Elon are fans of the Danish toy brand.
“LEGO has the largest plant in the world in Nuevo León. I don’t know if a daughter of the owner was at school with Mariana, so she kept inviting her to the plant. Since they were both LEGO fans, they hit it off. While we went through all the land we could offer, Elon and Mariana were talking about Twitter. I didn’t peel the governor, even though I put cream on the tacos,” Samuel narrated.
Mariana is the one who should ask
Due to the above, Samuel García jokingly mentioned that he will tell Mariana that she be the one who asks him to be Mariel’s godfather. “You tell him that you want to be his comadre, that if he wants to be the godfather ofand mari elon“, by putting the two names together, that of his daughter and that of the millionaire.
“And my compadre. Compadre because I’m going to tell him that Marielis’s godfather, let’s see if she accepts “, He had already said before on his social networks. Also, she explained on the show that if she has another child she will be called Samu Elon.
Could Elon Musk be godfather to Mariel, the daughter of Samuel García and Mariana Rodríguez?
The governor is known for being a Catholic just like Mariana, they even got married in the church during the pandemic. In theory, it is not supposed that you can have a godfather who does not profess this religion, however, there are some churches that allow it if the godfather promises to educate the boy, or girl in this case, under the Catholic religion. So, if you can, you can.
