The understanding of Bill Gates probably stops at the Microsoft era. I don't know that he has done so many amazing things after leaving Microsoft. It's hard to imagine a successful businessman worth nearly 10 billion dollars who would care about toilets in African countries, diseases like polio that plague children's health in developing countries, the construction of safe nuclear power, and how to reuse nuclear waste. His vision is not limited to one company, but concerned with all problems that can be solved by people who are ignored or unsolved. What he cares about is not a country, a race or religion, but the suffering human beings all over the world.
As an individual, his enthusiasm, focus, genius, self-confidence, and optimism are admirable. Love the perspective in this film on his annual reading week description, what a great idea! Kind of like Walden.
In the second episode, the host asked him that one of the most important decisions was for cost-effectiveness, but it was not very inspiring. He said that he didn't want to inspire. Human resources are limited, and he wanted to optimize. After talking, he laughed. That place is so cute, wise kind of cute. It seems that in the first episode he also mentioned that if you don't think about it, don't do something first, because failure not only means your own failure, but also thinks that the market's confidence in this idea or market will be damaged. Want to applaud this vision?
Looking at the whole movie, I feel that people who make money again are just ordinary people with aura and body. How much influence did his mother Mary Gates have on his childhood and even his whole life? At the end of the credits, there is a speech from his mother as the end of the series. Everyone's goods. The family environment really matters, friends, people around you and the environment really matter.
When talking about his lover, family, and friends, Bill's happiness and the pain of loss are the same as when ordinary people encounter similar situations. At the end, where the Gates couple is boating in the lake, the small clips about the memory of love and Daisy putting lights at the end of the pier in "Gatsby" are moving. Love and dreams are intertwined.
