Google के सीईओ सुंदर पिचाई की नई सैलरी, 6300 करोड़ रुपये का हुआ पैकेज गूगल के सीईओ सुंदर पिचाई के नए वेतन पैकेज के बारे में एक नया खुलासा हुआ है। रिपोर्ट्स के मुताबिक, आने वाले तीन साल के लिए उनके लिए 692 मिलियन डॉलर (लगभग 6300 करोड़ रुपये) का पैकेज तय किया गया है। यह जानकारी फाइनेंशियल टाइम्स की एक रिपोर्ट में सामने आई है। इस पैकेज का बड़ा हिस्सा परफॉर्मेंस आधारित स्टॉक यूनिट से आता है, जो अल्फाबेट के शेयर होल्डर्स के रिटर्न और S&P 100 इंडेक्स पर निर्भर करते हैं। पैकेज के तीन हिस्सों में विभाजित करने पर हर साल करीब 2100 करोड़ रुपये के आसपास की रकम आती है। इसमें से हर साल लगभग 2 मिलियन डॉलर (18 करोड़ रुपये) की सैलरी दी जाती है। पैकेज का एक बड़ा हिस्सा 126 मिलियन डॉलर मूल्य के परफॉर्मेंस स्टॉक यूनिट से आता है। ये स्टॉक अल्फाबेट के शेयर होल्डर्स के रिटर्न और S&P 100 इंडेक्स पर निर्भर करते हैं। यदि पिचाई अपने टारगेट को पूरा करते हैं, तो कुल रकम 252 मिलियन डॉलर तक पहुंच सकती है, जबकि अगर वे टारगेट को पूरा नहीं करते हैं, तो यह रकम जीरो होने का खतरा रहता है। गूगल ने पहली बार पिचाई के लिए 35 करोड़ डॉलर के नए स्टॉक इंसेंटिव्स की घोषणा की है। ये कंपनी के ऑटोनॉमस प्रोजेक्ट्स की ग्रोथ से जुड़े हैं। पिचाई को 13 मिलियन डॉलर के वायमो के स्टॉक मिलेंगे, जबकि उनको 4.5 करोड़ डॉलर की कीमत के शेयर विंग में दिए जाएंगे। पिचाई 2004 में गूगल से जुड़े थे और बाद में च्रोम ब्राउज़र के डेवलपमेंट और एंड्रॉइड डिवीजन की कमान संभाली। शुरुआत में उनकी AI विकास में धीमी गति के लिए आलोचना होती रही, लेकिन बाद में उन्होंने ओपनएआई के साथ सहयोग करके चैटजीपीटी लॉन्च किया। गूगल ने आगे चलकर एडवांस्ड AI मॉडल लॉन्च किए और उनको अपनी अन्य सर्विस में शामिल किया।#google #sundar_pichai #financial_times #alphabet #s_p_100_index

UNC basketball’s ‘No. 1 stat’ has powered Tar Heels’ success CHAPEL HILL — Resiliency, a trait not tracked by college basketball teams or analytics sites, has become the defining characteristic of the 17th-ranked Tar Heels (24-6, 12-5 ACC) as they prepare for a high-stakes matchup against No. 1 Duke (28-2, 16-1) at Cameron Indoor Stadium on March 7. The team’s ability to adapt and persevere through injuries and setbacks has been central to their success this season. Senior guard Seth Trimble, who missed nine games after recovering from a broken forearm, described resiliency as the team’s most critical asset. “It’d be our No. 1 stat,” Trimble said. “Keeping our circle just us, hearing only just us and relying on just us takes us such a long way.” He emphasized how the team’s focus on unity helps them block out external noise during tough moments. “When things get hard, you want to crumble and start listening to the outside noise, but having this mindset allows us to stay focused.” Coach Hubert Davis reinforced the importance of this mentality, noting that the team’s cohesion has been vital in overcoming challenges. “This is a tight group and we have to stay together,” Davis said. “Through those days, we have to stay connected. The guys have really done that this year.” The coach highlighted how the team’s ability to regroup after losses and adjust strategies has kept them competitive. The Tar Heels’ resilience was tested early in the season when Trimble was sidelined. Despite missing nine games, UNC went 8-1 in his absence, including a crucial 67-64 win over Kentucky after a 16-point loss to Michigan State. The team faced further adversity in January, losing three of four games while allowing an average of 92 points in defensive struggles against SMU, Stanford, and Cal.#duke #unc_basketball #chapel_hill #seth_trimble #hubert_davis
