There is such a computer genius who, at the age of 13, was able to independently develop the first computer program that could play the game of soft landing on the moon on a computer screen.

At the age of 20, he led a large company, Microsoft Corporation. At the age of 31, he became the youngest billionaire in history, and at the age of 39, he became the richest man in the world, and he is the legendary Bill Gates of this era.

Bill Gates has been an avid reader since he was a child, and he is curious about the unknown. As a child, he liked to read the world book encyclopedia. Often reading this tome for hours on end, he was fascinated by the wonderful world of the book, and often held the book in his arms and fell into deep thought.

In addition to reading encyclopedias, Bill Jr. also enjoys reading books on celebrity biographies, law, business, etc., and his thirst for knowledge reaches the point of forgetting to sleep and eat.

A large amount of reading not only enabled him to accumulate more knowledge than his peers, but also cultivated his ability to think independently. Bill Gates showed a distinctive personality at a very young age.

He once said: "Rather than being a grass on a lawn, it is better to be an oak tree towering over a cliff, because the grass is the same and has no personality." And the oak tree is tall and straight, and its head is held high."

In order to create a good learning environment for him, his parents sent him to a private middle school and Lakeside Middle School.

Lakeside Middle School is located on the shores of Lake Seattle, which is a beautiful, well-equipped location.

In 1968, at the end of Bill Gates' first year of middle school, Lakeside decided to introduce students to the field of computers, because the rapid development of computers at that time drove a frenzy of science and technology. At the time, it was very rare and expensive to get students to use computers.

Ever since he came into contact with computers, Bill Gates has developed a keen interest in this mysterious machine. He spends a lot of time researching computers, and whenever he has free time, he devotes himself to practicing and operating on this computer repeatedly.

There were others who, like him, were fascinated by the computer, including a student named Paul Allen. Allen was one of the most important friends Bill Gates made in his life. Together with Bill Gates, he later founded the world's most famous company, Microsoft Corporation.

The person Bill Gates admires the most is the oil magnate John D Rockefeller. Bill Gates once said to his classmates, "I'm going to be a millionaire when I'm 25." In June 1973, Bill Gates graduated from Lakeside High School. He was admitted to Harvard University with a perfect score in mathematics.

Harvard's motto is to be a friend of Plato and Aristotle. And make friends with the truth. In this talented and talented Harvard, it is not the most talented in mathematics, and some people have more mathematical talent than him, which makes Bill Gates, who has always been competitive, very frustrated.

He had a life credo that he would only be the first in everything and never be second, which made him give up the idea of majoring in mathematics.

During this time, Bill Gates got acquainted. Another crucial friend in his life, Steve Ballmer, was as influential to him as Paul Allen was at Lakeside High School.

He, like Bill Gates, is a math genius. But he wasn't very passionate about computers. He was only very fascinated by mathematics. Ballmer is very sociable. He was one of several close friends of Bill Gates, who tried to persuade him when he decided to drop out of Harvard.

But interestingly, a few years later, when Ballmer was studying for an NBA program at Stanford University's graduate school of business, Bill Gates came to persuade him to drop out and make a difference.

Ballmer failed to complete his studies at Stanford and was told by Gates to work at Microsoft. In the end, he also took over the CEO of Bill Gates.

In July 1975, Bill Gates and Paul Allen officially founded Microsoft, which means microcomputer software development. Gates owns 60 percent of the shares, and Paul Allen owns the remaining 40 percent.

With the advent of the computer age, Bill Gates had to design programs, promote the application of Microsoft computers, and cope with the courses at Harvard University, he felt that he was unable to do so, so he resolutely chose to drop out of Harvard despite his parents' opposition. But he dropped out on the premise that his company had already achieved considerable success and had a bright future.

For the establishment of Microsoft, he has a strong sense of dedication, insatiable enterprising spirit, he always sets himself one goal after another, and then tirelessly strives towards the goal.

In 1985, Microsoft Windows 10 is windows10 was officially launched, and this year, Microsoft's sales reached 1$400 million.

Later, the company continued to grow in size and was successfully listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 1986. Bill Gates became the youngest billionaire ever.

In 1992, Bush awarded Bill Gates the National Nobel Prize in Technology, which is the highest honor award in the United States.

In August 1995, Windows 95 was Windows 95, after the launch, Microsoft once again brought a huge shock to the world, and the world set off a rush to buy Windows 95, this year, Bill Gates became the world's richest man for the first time, and won the throne of the world's richest man for 13 consecutive years.

Initially, Bill Gates and Paul Allen founded Microsoft with the goal of making computers an effective tool for augmenting human capabilities.

And Bill Gates's personal ideal is to hope that everyone has a computer and uses his Windows operating system, and their ideals have basically been realized.

On June 27, 2008, Bill Gates officially retired and devoted himself to philanthropy.

He once said: "There will always be unsatisfactory places in life, you have to adapt to it, in this world, nothing can defeat you, as long as your beliefs are still there."
