Gambling Man: The Secret Story of the World's Greatest Disruptor, Masayoshi Son

by Lionel Barber, is the first major Western biography of SoftBank founder and CEO Masayoshi Son (often called "Masa").

It chronicles his extraordinary, high-stakes career as a visionary risk-taker who has repeatedly made and lost billions while shaping global tech investing.

Major deals and expansions — Acquiring stakes in broadband, mobile (e.g., becoming the exclusive distributor of iPhones in Japan via Vodafone Japan and later Sprint), and global ventures involving figures like Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Rupert Murdoch, and Jerry Yang.
The creation of the Vision Fund — Launching the unprecedented $100 billion SoftBank Vision Fund in 2017 (backed by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund and others), aiming to hunt "unicorns" and reshape tech investing, with high-profile successes in companies like Uber, DoorDash, and Slack.
Spectacular failures and losses — Epic missteps, most notably the massive investment in WeWork (which collapsed dramatically), along with other troubled bets like Wirecard, leading to huge financial swings and losses in the tens of billions.
Global power plays and networking — Behind-the-scenes dealings in Silicon Valley, Wall Street, Tokyo, Riyadh (Saudi royal palaces), China, and Manhattan (e.g., Trump Tower connections), blending financial engineering, bold persuasion, and sometimes controversial tactics.

I would say what this guy was able to accomplish is pretty hard to beat in 100 lives by ordinary people.
