I watched all three episodes in one go, and it felt flat but great.
The first impression is that the old man is really old, his back is hunched, and his temples are gray.
The second feeling is that the old man really likes to read, thinking week brings a bag of books and a refrigerator of Coke, haha. Ping Shi also loves to pack books for a week trip.
Third, the old man really likes to bite his glasses. Much like we thought when we were kids.
Other impressive points:
1. The old man has a super sense of responsibility, especially social responsibility. Simple sewage systems in the Third World to prevent dysentery and polio eradication in the Third World cost billions of dollars each. At this point, I feel that Jobs and Bill are not on the same level. Of course, what I know about Jobs is limited to that movie and the biography of Jobs.
2. The most regrettable thing is the old man's depleted uranium power generation. Many times safer than previous nuclear power generation methods, the worst outcome is a nuclear power plant blackout, not a nuclear leak. The technical problems are solved, and the people's fear of nuclear is next. The size of the United States is not enough. Bill came to China. After many years of travel, after meeting with Xi Jinping, he finally settled the first batch of settled in China. The tragedy is that the sweater war came, and Trump first denied Bill to come to China to build a nuclear power plant. Bill said disappointedly: We considered the impact of political factors on the project, but never thought that political factors first came from the United States. Seeing Bill walking on the small road with his back hunched over, the reporter asked: Haven't you ever thought that it's too difficult, really too difficult, just give up? Bill repeated several times: it was too difficult. I believe that the old man will definitely not give up easily.
3. The old man only likes to do innovative and complicated things. Sewage systems, polio eradication, and depleted uranium power generation undoubtedly fall into this category. He believes that technology can solve all problems, and Bill said with a mockery: I have a hammer, so I see all problems as nails. Ha ha.
4. China has a really large supply chain and market capacity. Bill has not been able to completely bypass China when he reprocesses sewage systems and depleted uranium nuclear power plants.
5. Bill is busier than he was before he left office. Because he felt that time was running out and he was afraid that it would be too late.
6. What he fears most is that his brain stops working, so he can't do anything.
7. Bill is really a workaholic. He said to his employees: Your job at Microsoft is a part-time job, and you can choose which 12 hours to work for the company.
8. He loves his family, he is smart and reserved. He always wanted to do something for society.
9. When he was a teenager, Bill wrote a class scheduling program for the school and an automation program for a large hydropower station. Now do you see why Bill dropped out of Harvard as a sophomore? Because in his major, he has almost reached the top, there is no need to study in school, the school can no longer satisfy. Stop preaching with many students that dropping out of school is the only way to get things done, that learning is useless. Few people can be Bill, most of us are just ordinary people.
10. It overlaps with a sentence said by Deng Chao of "Galaxy Tutorial". You have to keep thinking, keep thinking, don't stop, you will always do what you want to do. That's what Bill did, keep thinking, keep thinking, don't stop.
11. Bill's saddest day was the death of his mother. I don't know how this science and engineering man handles his emotions.
12. When he was a child, Bill was a typical engineering man, very dull, living in the house all day. But his parents arranged for him a lot of social etiquette, and I think it at least prevented Bill from showing obvious flaws.
13. If Bill were to die right now, he would most regret not saying thank you to his wife Melinda.
14. He has a very good friend who is Warren Buffett. Before the first meeting, Bill didn't want to go, he resisted. But once they met, they became friends.
15. Paul, the co-founder of Microsoft and Bill's friend, doesn't work the same way as Bill's ideas. They eventually had a conflict, and they didn't meet before they died, although an understanding was reached. If you can understand, try to come as soon as possible. If the Tao is different, why not separate it quickly, but it will be less painful.
16. Bill can only focus on certain aspects of his life and do it well. Should we also focus on that?
