文章大意:这是一篇应用文。主要报道了三位科技行业的领军人物以及他们的心路旅程。他们的故事将继续激励和创造新的领导者,无论他们的财富或环境如何,他们都渴望获得成功。

1 . Top Three inspirational tech personalities

Who are the leading figures in the tech industry? What were their journeys like?

SUNDAR PICHAI

At the top of the list is Sundar Pichai, the current CEO of Google, who was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth, sharing a two-bedroom apartment with his parents and younger brother, and only started having a phone in his house when he was 12. During his time as CBO, Pichai led the launch of Google Chrome, the most used web engine, Google Drive and Google Maps, which are features that have revolutionised modern lifestyle.

STEVE JOBS

Another well-known individual is the CEO of Pixar and NeXT, and the co-founder and CEO of Apple, Steve Jobs. Undoubtedly, his life can be compared to that of a rollercoaster. He was fired from the company that he co-founded (which later become known as Apple), then he went on to start up two other successful companies, before returning to Apple, where he created the iPhone, the product that many consider to be the most significant invention of this Century.

SAL KHAN

Then, we have the owner of one of the biggest online education providers, Khan Academy. He may not be as famous as the other two, but his contribution to education deserves as much credit. Using his website, anyone can have unlimited access to educational videos for free, allowing people to gain in-depth knowledge about many subjects without attending a formal course. For this, he is on the list of the 100 most influential people in the world.

Their stories will continue to inspire and create new leaders who aspire to attain success regardless of their wealth or circumstances.
