“Reddit你好!我是比爾-蓋茨,比爾與梅琳達(dá)蓋茨基金會(huì)聯(lián)合主席及微軟創(chuàng)始人。你可以問(wèn)我任何問(wèn)題。”
And so they did.
結(jié)果人們真的就什么都問(wèn)。
Fresh from helping to choose the next CEO to run the company he co-founded nearly four decades ago, Gates descended from the mountaintop to mix it up with the new media masses with his second Reddit appearance in the last year.
大約40年前,比爾-蓋茨創(chuàng)辦了微軟公司,而他在幫忙選完微軟的下屆CEO后,開(kāi)始與媒體打起了交道。去年他已經(jīng)參加過(guò)一次Reddit問(wèn)答了,今年是第二次參加。
Even before the festivities officially got underway, Gates posted a video where he answered a question ahead of time by someone left on the Reddit board asking whether he would pick up a $100 bill if he saw the money lying on the ground.
在正式參加問(wèn)答活動(dòng)前,比爾-蓋茨還在網(wǎng)上發(fā)布了一則視頻,視頻中他回答了此前網(wǎng)友在Reddit留言板上提出的問(wèn)題,比如:如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)地上有100美元,你會(huì)去撿嗎?
"Well, all my thoughts about money were formed at a time when $100 really was a substantial amount of money...if it's lying there and maybe it belongs to somebody and you ought to find it for them and return it to them," he said. "It'd be nice. They'd probably be fairly distraught about having dropped it. But i would pick it up and give it to the foundation because there, $100 actually buys quite a bit."
比爾-蓋茨回答說(shuō)“在我還認(rèn)為100美元是一大筆錢(qián)的時(shí)候,我就已經(jīng)形成了對(duì)待金錢(qián)的觀念。所以,一張鈔票掉在地上,也許是其他人掉落的,而你應(yīng)該撿起來(lái)還給失主。這是善舉,因?yàn)榈翦X(qián)的人可能因?yàn)榈袅蒜n票而懊喪不已。如果是我的話(huà),我會(huì)把100美元撿起來(lái)并放進(jìn)基金會(huì),因?yàn)檫@100美元可以派上很大的用途。”
