Chen Shijun, the co-founder of YouTube, said in his autobiography that he didn’t understand why people in Silicon Valley who were formerly multi-millionaires still came to work for more than 80 hours a week, and he couldn’t even enter the ranks. Stop working passion and entrepreneurial temptation to realize that people in Silicon Valley have an "addiction" that can never be filled with wealth, fame, and comfort.
The laughs and conflicts in "Silicon Valley" are also based on the conflict between these weird people and mainstream values.
Gavin and Peter were partners who started their business together in the past. In the end, they parted ways and became rivals because of their different values. Richard once complained very angrily that his company was just a boring game of two bastard billionaires.
Gavin has become a successful and attractive entrepreneur who seems to be an outsider. What he always talks about is goodness, greatness and other mandarins, as well as the classic Make the world a better place (but we are the successors of socialism) I have already seen through the exploitative nature of capitalists--). In essence, he is a very hypocritical person. There are many laughs to mock him in the play. The religious teachers of the East are portrayed as omniscient in the company with a halo. Rulers use despicable means to steal other people's ideas and suppress the development of small companies.
It also mocked the arrogant and arrogant programmers working in Hooli who enjoyed Google-like benefits (rich lunches, company ball games, massage rooms), and completely lost the innovative spirit of engineers. There is also a mediocre Antu enjoyable programmer role, but he always feels a bit redundant and cruel to his point.
Contrast this with a group of technical houses of Peter and Pie Pier.
Peter Gregory is the opposite of Gavin, much like Peter Thiel, who is known as the "Silicon Valley Thinker" in reality. He is a weird but very talented investor. Contrary to Gavin's full of charm outside, Peter always looks incompatible with the outside world. He never tries to hide his true self, appreciates the creative spirit, and encourages Richard to be his own company. It's a pity that the actor passed away, this role is so cool.
Although Erich Bachman is a narcissistic and arrogant character, he has been shown in the plot and won the trust of Richard. There should be a lot of fans. D&G is much more determined than Richard, and hates working for companies like Hooli. What's interesting is that they are all immigrants. Silicon Valley is a gathering place for immigrants, and they can start without any scruples in a brand new place. Jarad even gave up a good position to join this small company, and described Hooli as a domestic violence partner until Richard appeared to save him.
Each episode has many slots and accuracy, which is very attractive. Wait for the third season!
