This year, the industry's most high-profile tech mogul is probably Elon Musk.
On September 27, Tesla CEO Elon Musk surpassed Amazon founder Jeff Bezos to become the world's richest man again with a net worth of $203.5 billion.
His stake in Tesla continued to soar, soaring $58.6 billion from Oct. 15 to Oct. 26.
In other words, he earned half bill gates in 11 days.
Everyone's adjectives for him are "the most terrible madman on the planet", "Silicon Valley madman", "technology madman".
His "madness" stems from his foresight; what the current Internet giants study is what he plays the rest. He is also the officially recognized archetype of Iron Man.
It is worthy of the live-action version of "Iron Man", and this ascension speed is also very similar to riding a rocket!
Today, we're going to talk about him.

Musk is an unusually sensitive person to trends, stepping on the forefront of the times at every step.
At the age of 10, Musk began to teach himself programming, and at the age of 12, he sold a game he wrote.
In 1995, just after the rise of the Internet, Musk dropped out of Stanford and started Zip2. Climb aboard Zip to find the nearest restaurant and see customer reviews.
It took 10 years for this advanced model to be replicated in China and became a "dianping".
In 1998, Musk set his sights on Internet trading and founded PayPal. The transaction money between the buyer and the seller is temporarily stored on the third-party payment platform, and the money is called to the seller after the receipt is confirmed.
Sound familiar? Yes, 5 years later, Alipay, which imitates PayPal, was born.
These two choices have made him rich. But it was Space X that made him a god.
Not only did he become the first person in the world to launch a private rocket, but he also reduced the cost of rocket chips by 5384 times!
The chipset cost about 140 million yuan for the United States to launch a rocket, while the chipset of Musk's Space X rocket only used 26,000 yuan!
Why is it so cheap?
It turned out that programming had helped him a lot.
Musk abandoned the complex programming language that NASA specially designed for rockets, and directly used C++ and Python to write the main chip program of the rocket.
"You can write it with an ordinary computer!" "I'm in the same programming language as rocket launcher!"
The outside world has been amazed, and the entire technology circle has boiled over.
People have never thought that Haohang Starry Sky is no longer so far away, and it can also be reached with the most "grounded" code around it.
After watching Musk's growth path, you will find that he is very good at using the power of technology.
Perhaps because of his programming background, he can always use the rationality of an engineer to keenly judge every investment opportunity, and then use technology to realize the blueprint little by little, and finally harvest and earn money.
Techno otaku also has a day of changing the world. That's the beauty of Musk.

When Musk was asked why he dropped out of Stanford, he once said:
"I couldn't stand the internet age and stayed out of it."
Yes, the world is developing rapidly, and the Internet and big data are impacting everything.
Just like the "BBA" (Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi) has always been the three major luxury cars in the hearts of the Chinese people. But Tesla, created by Musk, directly ended the century-old car brand led by the BBA. Now the combined market capitalization of the three BBA car companies is less than one-third of Tesla's.
There is no eternal sunrise industry in this era; there is no job that can be done stably for a lifetime. The iron rice bowl that is scrambled for by the head may be smashed at any time.
Isn't there a way to break the game?
Yes, that's the Python Musk uses to program.
On the one hand, Python is deeply bound to artificial intelligence and big data, whether in the workplace or investment and financial management, there are many places that need to be used for data analysis processing and data crawling, and the best tool to use is Python.
On the other hand, I think that python language, scientifically rigorous, is able to train people's thinking, respect facts and logic. Moreover, I judge that the future society must be open and shared, and can bring together the wisdom of the whole world, and Python is the same, it can adjust the library of third parties, can gather everyone's wisdom.
Crucially, Python has already infiltrated every aspect of our lives. Moreover, there are big guys leading the way in front, and the best strategy for ordinary people is to follow in the footsteps of big guys.
If you also want to enhance your competitiveness and share the dividends of the times, my advice is to add less classes and free up time to learn Python.

Of course, many people are still confused. I'm not a programmer, so why should I learn Python?
You must know that the next 10 years are the era of big data. Python is deeply bound to artificial intelligence and big data.
In the workplace, there are many jobs that require data collection, data cleaning, and data analysis. Writing a program that automates all of this and results that are a hundred times more accurate than the human brain. Therefore, programming will definitely become a cross-industry imperative.
On the other hand, there are a lot of tedious and repetitive steps that can replace manual work with procedures. The best tool to use is Python.

Enter a short code in Python
Hundreds of tables can be processed automatically, and numbers can be fetched across tables
Programmers need to learn to program, which is the biggest misconception about programming. Just like we don't learn computers to become typists; we don't learn English to do translation. Instead, use them as tools.
Python is powerful in:
● Batch process hundreds of Excel, Word, PDF files, work efficiency tenfold
● Generate visual charts, and display work results more professionally
● Web crawler, one-click crawling of the desired information on the Internet
● Conduct data analysis, solve business problems, and report more rationally
● Carry out various "black technology" operations such as grabbing tickets, train tickets, coupons, etc.
In 2020, programming has become the "golden rice bowl" that breaks the class. Musk sent a job posting for Tesla on Twitter: "Join the Tesla artificial intelligence team, you definitely don't need a doctorate, I don't care if you graduate from high school, but programming must be excellent!" ”
In the domestic talent market, people who can program in Python can also earn higher salaries:
