After the book Chip Wars sold 10,000 copies last year, Nha Nam and Dan Tri Publishing House continue to release an attractive technology business history book - The Nvidia Way: Jensen Huang and the Making of a Tech Giant by author Tae Kim.

The book takes readers through each stage of Nvidia's development: from starting out in a small Denny's diner in San Jose, overcoming the first failures that nearly bankrupted the company, to technological milestones such as launching the GeForce GPU line and bold bets on AI, becoming a technology giant.

The book ends with Nvidia’s breakout moment in the AI ​​era. The birth of Chat GPT and the resulting AI craze caused the demand for GPUs to skyrocket. Nvidia almost monopolized the AI ​​chip market, and its stock price skyrocketed, helping the company reach a market capitalization of over $1,000 billion.

But Jensen Huang, despite his historic success, still maintains the philosophy of "not being complacent". Every morning he looks in the mirror and tells himself "I'm still not good enough" to continue to strive.
