woman answered "No, you are just trying so hard to be."
Through this answer, the director actually wanted to give Mark a qualitative evaluation: NO, Mark is not a villain, he is just trying so hard to be, it sounds like he is just trying so hard not to be, as a result he acts more like an asshole. Just like a child, do you say that I am a bad person? Okay, I'll show it to you; if you criticize me, I will do it to you. Mark is just a kid who doesn't know how to do it.
In fact, is Mark so innocent? This is not important. Even if it is a realistic film, there are actually a lot of artistic processing, and there should even be many places that are very inaccurate. The tone of the whole work is to show that Mark did something wrong, but he is not a bad person. Starting from this tone, what the film wants to do is to portray a few mediocre opponents, make the audience hate the mediocrity of these opponents, thereby affirming Mark’s excellence, the audience has a plot to forgive the "genius" and forgive the "strong"— —Just give the audience a good reason to forgive the faults of the "genius and the strong". Since it is not realistic, there is no need to investigate the real situation, the background of the real characters, and so on. Just follow the director's intentions and watch Look at the mediocre characters portrayed by the director, and learn some education.
1. The pedantic Cameron brothers
When Mark’s Facebook is still at Harvard and has not yet gone out, the Cameron brothers have the best time to stop him. The best way to deal with nerd is to deal with him with crowds, because nerd has no crowds. To put it bluntly, it means asking someone to beat him up, but Brother Ka said that this is insulting, and he must be banned by his own legal counsel. , It can be said that the reason for seeking fish. He has been reluctant to sue such as legal proceedings, saying that it is a shameful status, rich children bullying the poor guys, there are historical anecdotes in various countries, it may be very embarrassing for them to do it. In the end, I moved out of the Harvard Student Code to persuade myself to teach the matter to the Harvard president. In the dialogue with the Harvard president, the words were inadequate, red tape, and improper, and he offended the principal. Man, you have offended the mediator, and what do you expect him to do for you?
This way of speaking is the way of the British nobles. It is red tape, laid out, and quoted. It is necessary to keep the dignity of a gentleman. It is very good to deal with nobles and nobles, but it is really inappropriate to talk to the former Secretary of Finance and the current principal of Harvard.
Brother Ka is Song Xianggong. Not real nobles, real nobles are those who "observe calmly, show no expressions, and are indifferent; Bodhisattva's heart, thunderbolt means; actions speak louder than words."
2. Eduardo without control.
If there is no 19,000 early contributions from Edward, many things are different. Don’t underestimate the money. Many great ideas fall on the lack of funds in the early days. Without funds, there will be no equipment and no products. , You can’t expand the team, and you can’t even afford the taxi money to contact the investment company. US$19,000 is equivalent to RMB 130,000. It is easy to determine the purchasing power. It may be equivalent to RMB 200,000 in China. This amount of money is very important.
Why did Eduardo, who made such a big contribution, be kicked out so badly? On the one hand, Mark is too ruthless and unjust, on the other hand Edward certainly has quite a lack of work: Why didn't he go to California and leave the team? Why he cares so much about Sean's joining is because Mark listens to Sean very much, and he can't understand Sean who is exaggerated, plays with women and takes drugs, and his life is ups and downs. This kind of personality of Eduardo is related to his being a good boy himself. After entering Harvard, he was invited twice by the Phoenix Society. He would be sad when someone said that he abused chickens. This kind of good boy, step-by-step personality resistance Can't afford to start a business, retreat to the second line, enjoy 30% of the equity, receive dividends, and accumulate capital to start a second business for yourself may be the most appropriate way (but Mark did not give him the opportunity). After discovering that Sean had joined, he felt his influence had disappeared, so he showed his influence in a desperate manner, and made the most naive behavior of "closing the account." This has proved that he can't resist the banner, and Mark also responded: Our service is trusted by users because he never stops. Non-stop is a key point. When you stop your account, you pit the interests of the team against your own. This is a big issue. The naive Eduardo, the careful Mark doesn't want to ask him at this time, and will abandon him as if.
3. addict Sean
Sean repeatedly ended in failure is for a reason, but I do not understand, the film does not explain what makes Shaun sold a 6% stake his facebook, because just simply blow on reputation It has nothing to do with whether or not to sell shares. But the director deliberately portrayed Sean's fear and anxiety during the Dongchuang incident (when drug abuse was discovered). The director actually didn't want to say anything else, just wanted to say that Sean was mediocre, so he didn't enjoy the fruits of the final victory.
Sean's mediocrity is just addicted to sensuality, an addict.
4. In addition to the above, the director even constantly portrays the mediocrity of many people in many details to show Mark's excellence, even to the point of disgusting.
For example, another Harvard student who went to listen to Bill Gates' speech with Mark was very excited when he heard "the next Bill Gates among you", but he didn't know that Bill Gates was on stage. At this time, Mark is doing something to make him Bill Gates, but the other party still doesn't know who Bill Gates is! !
The coquettish and unreasonable play of Asian girls.
When the lawyers of the two sides negotiated, the lawyers had no aura and let Mark, a kid, control the situation.
Wait a minute, so in an ocean of mediocrity, good villains are more likeable.
