Who is the Vietnamese guy who took Tim Cook for a walk around Hoan Kiem Lake?

(Dan Tri) - Duy Tham is a technology reviewer who attracts millions of followers on social networks. He attracted attention when he met with Apple CEO Tim Cook in Hanoi.

On the morning of April 15, Apple CEO Tim Cook was in Hanoi for activities to strengthen his commitment to Vietnam. Here, he met with a number of Vietnamese content creators and programmers. During the visit, the Apple boss walked around Hoan Kiem Lake and chatted with YouTuber Duy Tham. This made many technology enthusiasts excited.

On his personal X account, Tim Cook shared a photo with Duy Tham and expressed his joy at spending time with the Vietnamese reviewer. In addition, he praised Hoan Kiem Lake as very beautiful. Duy Tham also quickly updated his status after meeting the Apple CEO in person: "A dreamlike morning, being welcomed, chatting with Mr. Tim Cook, walking around Hoan Kiem Lake with him. 8 years ago, I pressed the camera to record my first video and in the most distant future, I never thought today would happen. Mr. Tim Cook said he really likes the atmosphere and people of Vietnam and that I am more handsome than on video."

Duy Tham (real name Ngo Duc Duy, born in 1995, Vinh Phuc) currently lives in Hanoi. After more than 7 years working as a technology reviewer, he owns a YouTube channel with nearly 2.1 million followers, a Facebook page with 1 million followers and a TikTok account attracting 7.5 million followers. He is a prominent content creator of an information, entertainment and technology channel for young people.

Duy Tham once said that, when he was a student, he was passionate but did not have the conditions to access technology products. By chance, he saw a unit recruiting collaborators to report on technology, he applied and worked part-time to earn money to cover his living expenses, and at the same time had the opportunity to experience the products he liked. After nearly a year, Duy Tham gradually transformed from a news translator to a reviewer.

After graduating from the Diplomatic Academy of Vietnam with a major in English, Duy Tham continued to pursue his passion as a reviewer. At first, he encountered many difficulties when standing in front of the camera. Duy Tham's first videos also received many comments criticizing his boring voice, unclear pronunciation, and trembling. It took the Vinh Phuc boy nearly a year to be able to speak fluently like now. The audience also gradually accepted his unique style.

Despite owning social media channels with a large following, Duy Tham revealed that he is an introvert and a man of few words. He has to try very hard to do well in a job that requires extroversion and meeting many people. Until now, Duy Tham still admits that he is very different in real life and in his videos.

Thanks to his success in reviewing technology products and collaborating with brands, Duy Tham achieved his goals after many years of hard work. He bought his first house at the age of 24-25. About a year later, the 1995-born boy continued to buy his first car, making his parents proud.

The million-view reviewer also said that the name Duy Tham was chosen randomly but has become his brand. He is loved for his humorous, popular sharing style, easy to approach many people even though he reviews expensive products. In addition to technology, Duy Tham also wants to expand and conquer other areas such as travel experiences, vehicles, etc.

In September 2022, Duy Tham married Khanh Quynh after 5 years of dating. The hot TikToker said that the two came together when they had nothing in hand. On his personal page, he often shares sweet moments and words for his wife, making people admire him.

Currently, Duy Tham has a successful life with his other half. In addition to being able to buy expensive technology products to review, he also travels to many places in the world such as the US, Japan, Singapore, and Europe.
