"The Social Network": Niu X's Pseudo-biographical Film

A certain magazine had a review about the movie that said, "The dialogue doesn't have a pound of excess fat." In the language we are familiar with, it is "there is no extra fat." I read this sentence. After initially enduring the dense dialogue like a machine gun, it quickly entered the euphoria. This movie is very cool to watch, it makes your blood heat up at a speed of 15 degrees per second. Although there is an ending about betrayal and loss and loneliness at the end, during the viewing process, the blood is still inevitably boiling.
Mark Zuckerberg, one of the immortal myths of the Internet, is the youngest billionaire in the world. The founder of Facebook, a company whose market value is second only to GOOGLE. The opportunity for him to create this myth, the movie tells us, was due to his anger when he broke up in love. Then this genius, with his friend as young as him, went on a huge business together. While some people are thinking about finding a job or how to increase their wages, some people are thinking about how to create an era. This is the state of our planet. So when I saw half of it, I couldn't help but sigh. When I was young, why didn't I have a dream. But the dream now is the punctual mortgage, the education of my daughter, and the desire for consumption that is constantly surpassed by friends. What else, a cup of tea, a drunken and naturally awake morning.
Yes, from the beginning I deviated from the theme of this movie, the success of the business, the break of a friend. And Mark Zuckerberg ended up alone in his office outside the courtroom on Facebook to order pictures of his ex-girlfriends. A genius who is too egoistic, a taciturn otaku, and a successful person who is overwhelmed with self-confidence. Although I agree that this movie is unique in terms of the thematic plot. But to be honest, compared to real life, these poetic losses are undoubtedly a bit hypocritical. When he was suspected of plagiarizing the twin brothers' idea, what should he do, let mediocre people spoil the idea, or let great people realize it. When he replaced his entrepreneurial partner and his best friend Edward Savin with the great Sean Parker. Edward Savin has always supported his friends, but he is old-fashioned and outdated, while Sean Parker understands Mark Zuckerberg, the capital market, and the Internet age. Success has to pay a price. Or in the most traditional way. When you achieve greatness, you must endure or cut the backwardness of those around you. One gets the Tao, what should you do if the chicken and the dog can't go to the sky with you? Will you not go to the sky?
Loss is only qualified to say, if not successful, loss will only turn into despair. Ordinary like us, only when life is worry-free, there is leisure. If even eating is a problem, what relationship does it have with you? Mark Zuckerberg, when his company was worth $25 billion, Qian settled all the complaints.
We used to misunderstand that the world is equal, and when we were planning for family expenses, my wife ended up saying, "Poor and poor couples are sad." When this movie gave me the urge to build a career. I am sorry that I no longer care about and sympathize with those love and sorrows built on great wealth.
This movie is not completely real, and we can't replicate a too real life, but the story is very tense. The translation of the version I read is really bad, and as far as I understand it, the lines should be clean and neat. A word often used by Mark Zuckerberg and his friends.
Called "Cool!"

    The most important theme of this film is not friendship, but class.

    At the end of the film, Mark, the youngest billionaire in the world, facing the $25 billion facebook he built with his own hands, curled up in his office chair and refreshed over and over again to the ex-girlfriend who led him to create it all. The unannounced friend request - he won the world, but he can't get back the original one.

The Social Network quotes

  • Erica Albright: You are probably going to be a very successful computer person. But you're going to go through life thinking that girls don't like you because you're a nerd. And I want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, that that won't be true. It'll be because you're an asshole.

  • Eduardo Saverin: They're saying, the Winklevoss twins are saying that you stole their idea.

    Mark Zuckerberg: I find that to be a little more than mildly annoying.

    Eduardo Saverin: Oh? Well, they find it to be intellectual property theft. Why didn't you show this to me?

    Mark Zuckerberg: [flippantly] It was addressed to me.

    Eduardo Saverin: They're saying that we stole theFaceBook from Divya Narendera and the Winklevosses.

    Mark Zuckerberg: [trying to grab the letter out of Eduardo's hands] I know what it says!

    Eduardo Saverin: Did we?

    Mark Zuckerberg: Did we what?

    Eduardo Saverin: Don't screw around with me now. Look at me!

    Mark Zuckerberg: [Mark begrudgingly looks up at him]

    Eduardo Saverin: The letter says we could face legal action.

    Mark Zuckerberg: No, it says I could face legal action.

    Eduardo Saverin: This is from a lawyer Mark, they must feel they have some grounds.

    Mark Zuckerberg: The lawyer is their father's house council!

    Eduardo Saverin: Do they have grounds?

    Mark Zuckerberg: The grounds are our thing is cool and popular and HarvardConnection is lame! Wardo, I didn't use any of their code, I promise. I didn't use anything! Look, a guy who builds a nice chair doesn't owe money to everyone who ever has built a chair, okay? They came to me with an idea, I had a better one.

    Eduardo Saverin: Why didn't you show me this letter?

    Mark Zuckerberg: I didn't think it was a big deal.

    Eduardo Saverin: [sighs before sitting down beside Mark] Okay, if there's something wrong. If there's ever anything wrong, you can tell me, I'm the guy that wants to help. This is OUR thing. Now, is there ANYTHING that you need to tell me?

    Mark Zuckerberg: [very pointedly] No.
