Chapter 356: Bill Gates is here

The weather was a bit hot in mid-June, and there was nothing to block the sun in the entire playground except for the rostrum.

Xu Qing's class sat in front of the rostrum, Sanders looked at the small shed that had been built temporarily, and said in an unhappy tone: "Why don't the people on the rostrum have to be exposed to the sun, and we people have to sweat in the sun." ”

Xu Qing said with a smile: "What is there to complain about, when you become the leader of Stanford, you can also sit on the rostrum and not be exposed to the sun." ”

Sanders hurriedly shook his head and said, "Hey, I get dizzy when I see the textbook, and I want to be the leader of Stanford, which is more uncomfortable than not." ”

Xu Qing hurriedly looked around, fortunately, everyone's attention was on the rostrum, no one noticed Sanders' words, Xu Qing was speechless, and he dared to say such words on such an occasion.

"Don't talk nonsense, bear with me, the graduation ceremony will be over soon. Xu Qing said.

The two stopped talking and also looked at the podium, at which point the principal came to the stage to give a speech.

The principal's speech was very short, only 10 minutes, which surprised Xu Qing.

It may be that the principal also knows that the weather is very hot today, so hurry up and finish the graduation ceremony, everyone is relaxed.

Then came the guest speaker invited by Stanford, Bill Gates, which was even more unexpected by Xu Qing.

Xu Qing remembers that Bill Gates gave a speech at Stanford, but that was in 2014.

Xu Qing doesn't know who the guest speaker at Stanford this year is, but it is certainly not Bill Gates, it seems that his butterfly has changed the history of Stanford.

Although Bill Gates is not as powerful as he was in 2014, he is qualified to be a guest speaker at Stanford.

Sanders looked at Bill Gates on the stage and opened his eyes wide: "Oh, Xu, your opponent is coming." ”

Sanders knew about the grievances between Xu Qing and Bill Gates, so he teased Xu Qing.

"Who said we were competitors, now I am partners with Bill Gates. Xu Qing said with a smile.

"Lies are repeated. Sanders despised Xu Qing.

Bill Gates' speech began, first talking about his experience when he was a student, then talking about his experience of starting a business and managing Microsoft Corporation, and finally talking about the current situation and future development trend of the Internet.

Finally, Bill Gates also advertised Microsoft Corporation, saying that Microsoft Corporation is the world's largest Internet company and the most popular company in the world.

Bill Gates didn't directly say that everyone should join Microsoft, but everyone knows what it means.

When he was about to get off the podium, Bill Gates looked at Xu Qing, looked directly at Xu Qing, and nodded with a smile.

Xu Qing turned a blind eye to Bill Gates' smile, and he knew that it was not good for Bill Gates to speak at Stanford today.

Stanford's current class of computer science graduates is known as the highest quality Stanford has ever seen.

Xu Qing didn't know if they were the highest quality this year, but he knew very well that his classmates were very strong, otherwise Xu Qing would not always want to recruit them into the company.

With such a high quality, it will inevitably be coveted by various companies, and some companies contacted some of Xu Qing's students in their freshman year, such as Garriti, a top genius.

More companies are reaching out to students on the eve of graduation or ready to show off at career fairs.

Xu Qing heard Bill Gates praise Microsoft at the end of his speech, and knew that Bill Gates coveted Xu Qing's students very much.

Microsoft's attraction to Stanford's computer science graduates is undoubtedly very strong, because Microsoft is indeed the world's No. 1 Internet company at present, and it is well paid in all aspects.

And today, Bill Gates personally endorses Microsoft, which is full of sincerity, and the attraction to graduates has increased a lot.

Xu Qing originally thought that most of this year's graduates would join his own company, but now the possibility has decreased.

It seems that it is time to make the strongest job advertisement in history for the speech that will be held later.

After Bill Gates' speech, it was Xu Qing's turn, and the host of the graduation ceremony read Xu Qing's name, Xu Qing stood up, hugged his grandparents, parents and other relatives and friends, and walked to the direction of the rostrum.

When the host read Xu Qing's name, there was a huge applause and cheers all around.

Compared with the cheers that Bill Gates received when he came to power just now, Xu Qing's cheers were even louder.

Xu Qing's popularity at Stanford is good, after all, Xu Qing represents the glory of this class of Stanford graduates.

Xu Qing came to the rostrum, hugged the principal and other school leaders, and then shook hands with a group of guests invited by Stanford.

When Xu Qing and Bill Gates shook hands, Xu Qing said, "Mr. Gates, welcome to Stanford." ”

Bill Gates also smiled: "Stanford is a very good school, with good students, good environment, and just the right amount of sunshine." ”

The two each said a word, and their hands immediately separated, and Xu Qing continued to shake hands with the other guests.

After shaking hands with the guests, Xu Qing came to the podium, the host and Xu Qing whispered some speech notes, Xu Qing nodded, and the host returned to the rostrum.

Xu Qing propped his hands on the podium, looked at the students and their relatives and friends, and then looked at his own relatives and friends.

For a while, he was so excited, he never thought that he would stand at Stanford and give a speech one day, and it felt very good.

After a pause of a few seconds, Xu Qing began his speech in his magnetic voice: "First of all, I would like to thank you for the warm applause you just gave me, and I am honored to be invited by the principal as a guest speaker today.

When the principal told me about this, I couldn't believe it, I didn't think I was qualified to give you a speech.

Maybe you will refute me, you are a super-rich man with a net worth of tens of billions, how can you not be qualified to give us a speech.

Indeed, I have achieved some success in business, and the company I have created has become one of the most promising and popular companies in the world. ”

Bill Gates almost rolled his eyes when he heard Xu Qing's words behind the rostrum, he gave Microsoft a hidden advertisement at the end of the speech, Xu Qing advertised directly at the beginning of the speech, and his face was much thicker than his.

Xu Qing's speech continued: "But whether or not you are qualified to speak, can you use your net worth alone as a standard? Some people may think that net worth can be used as a standard, but I don't agree.

Stanford is one of the top universities in the world, and the most important purpose of the university is to cultivate students' character and knowledge, not to cultivate money-making tools.

I'm certainly not a money-maker, and I'm not badly conducted, but I'm so poor in learning that I don't think I'm qualified to give you a speech.

Many of you see my net worth and think that I am a very good person, not as good as me, and ignore all my shortcomings.

But today I want to tell you that I am no better than you. ”

Xu Qing's words caused agitation in the audience, and there was such a speech to belittle himself?
