After watching this film, I feel as if I watched "Lei Feng's Story" when I was a child, and I couldn't help but make a study summary report. Mark's entrepreneurial saga is naturally due first and foremost to its own factors. Harvard student, programming genius, this is his well-known label, needless to say; there are two other very important characteristics, which may explain why Facebook can quickly swept the world. One is to follow one's heart. Instead of going with the flow and participating in activities to join the school club, Mark threw himself into his hobby of the web. When the scale and influence of the website expanded to a certain extent, he resolutely left the school and concentrated on running the website in other places. At the same time, he chose a partner who had a closer relationship with the venture capital, and abandoned his good buddies with different ideas in his career. Under his shy appearance, his opinions are unmoving, and he ignores all the constraints of rules and regulations, and has achieved the development of his company as fast as the wind. The second is super observation. This ability has also created his outstanding sense of innovation. There is a saying in aesthetics: there is no lack of beauty in life, what is lacking is discovery. Mark is good at finding interesting highlights in the trivial matters of life. For example, after being rejected by his girlfriend, he retaliated by commenting on the blog that the other party claimed that 34C was actually only 34B, which was not enough. He collected a bunch of photos of Harvard girls and developed a system for classmates to rate them as more beautiful. The popularity even caused the school's servers to go down - that's what he got inspired by noticing that boys usually like to discuss the looks of girls. Facebook has no innovation in technology, but it is because of his innovation in the way of network communication that the website is endowed with a platform system style that is very close to the user's focus, and it is unstoppable.
Mark's own characteristics are the internal causes of his success, and the environmental factors, which are external causes of success, are more thought-provoking. From a glimpse of Harvard's free academic atmosphere and relaxed humanistic environment through the lens, it is hard to imagine how refreshing it will be to study there. "Harvard students believe that creating a job is better than finding a job", innovative ideas are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the concept of our university study has been out for decades. I am also struck by the intellectual property protection of American society. Facebook borrowed the ideas of several alumni and made him pay 65 million US dollars in settlement compensation, which can make the domestic companies who have been copied by Tencent look at it. I once saw a Zhongyong-style comment, saying that the post-80s generation in China will never be able to get out of Lady Gaga and Mark Zuckerberg. Reminiscent of the dialogue at the beginning of the film: There are more Chinese people with super-high IQs than any ethnic group in the United States. It seems that environmental determinism should be more in line with the facts.
