比爾蓋茨 若能被哈佛錄取,大部分的高中學(xué)生都會(huì)很高興,但是哈佛卻沒有給小比爾蓋茨多少。幾個(gè)學(xué)期后,他輟學(xué)了,出去工作。最終他使自己成為了世界上最富裕的人。 事實(shí)上,他的事業(yè)從高中時(shí)就開始了,那時(shí)他發(fā)現(xiàn)了令人著迷的電腦世界。他很快學(xué)會(huì)了叫做BASIC的編程語言。他花費(fèi)很多時(shí)間去探究計(jì)算機(jī)能做些什么。不久以后,他和他的一個(gè)同班同學(xué)保羅愛倫就開始成為當(dāng)?shù)仉娔X編程的專家。 高中畢業(yè)后,這對(duì)朋友走上了不同的道路。愛倫呆在西雅圖而蓋茨去了波士頓讀哈佛。然而在哈佛,蓋茨并不是一個(gè)認(rèn)真的學(xué)生。他將絕大多數(shù)的時(shí)間花在了學(xué)校計(jì)算機(jī)中心里。 1975年這兩個(gè)年輕人決定開一個(gè)小公司。他們將它叫做微軟。他們以每臺(tái)計(jì)算機(jī)30美元的價(jià)格向電腦廠商授權(quán)他們的操作系統(tǒng)。第一年他們賺了16 000美元。這足以說服蓋茨放棄哈佛的學(xué)業(yè)去開始全職工作。 1981年微軟成為了一家上市公司。公司發(fā)展很快,蓋茨變的非常富有。蓋茨可能已經(jīng)放慢了腳步,但他仍努力工作以保持領(lǐng)先于電腦硬件的發(fā)展,開發(fā)市場上還沒有的電腦操作系統(tǒng)。
Lesson67 Bill Gates
Most high school students would be delighted to be accepted by Harvard University, but Harvard had little to offer to young Bill Gates. After several semesters, he dropped out and went to work. Finally he made himself the richest man in the world.
Actually, his career started in high school where he discovered the amazing world of computers. He quickly learned the programming language called BASIC. He spent hours finding out what a computer could do. Before long, he and Paul Allen, a classmate, became local experts on computer programming.
After they graduated from high school, the friends went separate ways. Allen stayed in Seattle and Gates went to Boston to attend Harvard. At Harvard, however, Gates was not a serious student. He spent most of his time in the university computer centre.
The two young men decided to form a small company in 1975.
They called it Microsoft. They let the computer company license their operating system for $30 per computer. In their first year, they earned $16,000. This was enough to convince Gates to quit Harvard and work full-time.
Microsoft became a public company in 1981. The company grew quickly and Gates became very rich. Gates may have slowed down a little, but he still works hard to stay ahead of computer hardware, creating operating systems for computers that are not yet in the stores.
