Taken this Thursday at the official Softbank iPhone 3GS launch event just past midnight.
On the left of the photo is Masayoshi Son - CEO of Softbank. On the right is tech journalist and consultant Nobi Hayashi. The chap in the middle is some git who realized that he should not be standing in the middle ^^;
A few bits n pieces about Masayoshi plucked from Wikipedia below.
Masayoshi Son (Japanese: 孫正義, Korean: 손정의; born August 111957 in Tosu, Saga Prefecture, Japan) is a Korean-Japanese businessman - whose grandfather came from Korea to Japan - and the founder and current chief executive officer of Softbank Capital, and the chief executive officer of SoftBank Mobile (the renamed, effective October 1, 2006, Vodafone K. K. ). According to the Forbes magazine, his net worth is 7 billion dollars and he is the richest man in Japan, despite being the single person who has lost the most money in history (approximately 70 billion dollars in the dot com crash of 2000).
A third-generation son of a Korean family in Japan, Son was not considered a Japanese citizen until his family adopted the Japanese surname Yasumoto. Son pursued his interests in business by securing a meeting with Japan McDonald's president Den Fujita. Taking his advice, Son began studying English and computer science.
At age 16, Son moved to California and finished high school while staying with friends and family in South San Francisco. He then enrolled at University of California, Berkeley in which he majored in economics and took some computer science courses. Enamored by a microchip featured in a magazine, Son at age 19 became confident that computer technology would ignite the next commercial revolution.
Convinced that anything related to microchips could yield a fortune, Son decided to produce at least one entrepreneurial idea a day. He patented a translating device that he eventually sold to Sharp Electronics for million. Applications of the patent include the Wizard series of Sharp PDAs.
Flush with cash, Son imported Space Invaders video arcade systems and dispersed them about the UC Berkeley campus. Soon after graduating from Berkeley with a BA in economics in 1980, Son started Unison in Oakland, California, which has since been bought by Kyocera.
