Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates will appear as himself on The Big Bang Theory next month. The episode, which CNN reports will air in late March, will see Penny (Kaley Cuoco) hosting Gates at work, with her friends trying to do everything to meet him.
微软的合伙创始人，比尔盖茨下月将会客串《生活大爆炸》，由Kaley Cuoco饰演的Penny将会在工作的时候接待这位大佬，而她的一群理工怪咖朋友们则想尽一切办法来接近盖茨。
The show is full of tech-obsessed characters, who will no doubt be excited to see superhero Bill Gates appear.
这部充斥着科技迷的美剧，对于超级英雄的盖茨都大喜过望。
It's not clear if Gates' appearance will be brief, or a star role throughout the episode, but the show is bound to reference Gates' work at Microsoft or his life after the company as a billionaire philanthropist.
虽然盖茨在该集中，是否会作简单的介绍，或者仅仅是明星客串，我们不得而知。但是这集中肯定和盖茨在微软的工作或是离开公司之后做百亿慈善家的事情有关。
But here's a Big Bang fun fact for you: Sheldon has actually already met the infamous tech billionaire on the CBS comedy and let's just say their first interaction did not go very well. In fact, Gates punched Sheldon in the face!
来曝个《生活大爆炸》的料：谢耳朵其实在CBS这部喜剧中和这位科技巨富的大佬已经有过交锋，而且沟通并不融洽，事实是盖茨给谢耳朵脸上来了一拳。
"Gates gave a speech at the university," Raj explained. "Sheldon went up to him afterwards and said, 'Maybe if you weren't so distracted by sick children in Africa, you could've put a little more thought into Windows Vista.'
"Raj说道：“当时盖茨正在大学做演讲。”“谢耳朵上去就对他说，要是你对于非洲的病儿没那么上心，你可以花更多的心思在Windows vista系统。
”"Bam! Right in the nose," Leonard added triumphantly.
“砰！一拳正好打在鼻子上，”莱纳德幸灾乐祸地补充道。
As of now, there's no news if The Big Bang Theory plans to incorporate or address Sheldon and Gates' previously mentioned altercation into the current storyline, but we're keeping our fingers crossed!
截止目前，对于《生活大爆炸》是不是会结合之前谢耳朵和盖茨之间的纠葛，加点内容到最新的剧集里面，我们不得而知，不过我们内心激动，还是双手交扣，拭目以待！
Gates isn't the first famous figure from tech or science to appear on the show. Buzz Aldrin, Stephen Hawking, Elon Musk, and Steve Wozniak have all appeared as guest stars on The Big Bang Theory over the years.
盖茨不是第一个客串该剧科技大咖。多年来， Buzz Aldrin, Stephen Hawking, Elon Musk, and Steve Wozniak都客串过该剧。
This is the first time Gates has appeared in a TV sitcom guest role since his appearance in Frasier back in 2001. Gates has certainly worked up an appetite for acting, though.
盖茨也不是第一次客串电视剧，2001年他曾客串《欢乐一家亲》，他对演戏也非常感兴趣。
He's previously dressed up as Austin Powers , imitated Morpheus from The Matrix, and performed in an elaborate farewell video to mark his departure from full-time work at Microsoft.
之前他还在《黑客帝国》里穿着类似《王牌大贱谍》的服装来扮演莫非斯。盖茨还精心出演了纪念自己离开微软的告别视频。
New episodes of The Big Bang Theory return Thursday, March 1 at 8 p.m.
