Chapter 3 Rainy Season (Part II)
The rain was still falling, and all morning, Yoona didn't go to SM to practice, nor did she do her summer homework, just like her normal playful temperament, occasionally messing around, and most of the rest of the time begging Jisoo, who was reading books and learning something on her own, to play games with her. Although she often mocked her intelligence, Jisoo always couldn't refuse her pleas, so in the morning, the sound of fighting in the World of Warcraft resounded in the study or the bedroom of the two, occasionally mixed with Yun'er's shouting.
After lunch at noon, Jisoo, who had been delayed all morning, said that she didn't want to continue to play with her, and stayed in the bedroom with only one person, the cold wind of the air conditioner blew, and the emotion of parting was once again very clear in my heart.
I thought about saying goodbye, but she knew that she was very soft-hearted, and if Sister Jisoo kept it, she might have agreed in a daze. She is also not very smart in some things, if Jisoo's sister asks her why she wants to leave, she may just lie to her, and she will probably pour beans into a bamboo tube and tell all her thoughts.
Then, what to do?
It's just to let her sister worry with her, she knows that Dao Jisoo likes her very much, and regards her as the best friend, more than 500 days and nights, many, many times, they snuggle up to each other and comfort each other, they have no one to talk to, they are the same lonely, so confused that they can't see where the road ahead is, Lin Yuna accompanied An Jisoo out of the darkness, and Ahn Jixiu also accompanied Lin Yuna to spend the loneliest time.
But many times, friendships can't break through some barriers.
It's about love, it's about responsibility.
The question is a bit heavy. But it was indeed her clear thinking, if it was before, she might have asked Jisoo to help her defeat an enemy, Jisoo might have finally chosen to help her after hesitating for a long time, but by now, it was too late.
They want to give birth to that child, and the responsibility that comes with it is not only borne by him and Lin Xiujing, but also by An Zhixiu, and also by her.
That's his child!
Maybe Ahn Joon-hyuk never loved Lim Yoon-a. But Yuna has always loved him. These days, she often looks at Lin Xiujing's lower abdomen, imagining that there is a little life being born there. Probably 9 months later. It will grow into a little boy or girl. Croaking to the ground, letting out a loud cry, opening small eyes that may not be able to see anything. Watch as his or her father happily picks him or her up, holding him or her aloft, his or her skin flushing in the sun.
Perhaps, he (she) will lie in his mother's warm and soft arms on a sleepy night, listening to lullabies that he still can't understand, and hiccups a little.
On TV, in life, this is the journey that everyone has to walk, and there must have been such a time, but some people are still far away after all, even if she keeps it, that person will not look back.
Many times in the middle of the night, I walked alone in a lonely wilderness, woke up and sat in a lonely darkness, before him, no one hugged her and said to her, "Yun'a, don't be afraid, I'm here", no one wiped away her tears immersed in nightmares.
How could she bear that his children might have the same situation in the future?
Yuna can't be a bad woman who breaks up the family, even if she can't achieve that goal at all.
So, let's leave quietly!
packed her backpack, went to the company as usual, went upstairs and said hello to Jisoo and Lin Xiujing, saying that she went to the company to practice, and then got a very ordinary answer to let her go home early for dinner, the girl changed her shoes in the hallway, looked back at the quiet living room, and thought so.
Without looking back, he opened the door and walked out.
Upstairs, Jisoo, who was looking at a tome, frowned slightly, and somehow, her heart beat violently, and she subconsciously looked out the window.
There, the sky is thickened with leaden clouds......
……
"Ahn, are you alright?"
Through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, Palo Alto's California Avenue is a clear reflection of the sun-drenched city, the summer sea breeze on the West Coast is blowing along the shore, and the bustling California Avenue is lined with beech and sycamores, and the huge canopy of trees shades the sun.
I don't know why, Ahn Joon-hyuk remembered the haze over Incheon when he left South Korea.
Ahn Joon-hyuk arrived in San Francisco in the early hours of the morning at a café on California Avenue and met with the staff from Park Sun-Ling Ventures' office here, and after a short rest at the hotel, he drove to Palo Alto in the morning to be greeted by Zuckerberg and his girlfriend, a Chinese-American girl named Priscilla Chen.
Coming back to his senses in Zack's somewhat concerned inquiry, Ahn Jun-hyuk smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I suddenly thought of something." ”
"Oh, is it urgent?"
"No, maybe the jet lag hasn't adjusted yet, so it's a bit distracted. ”
On the other side, Zuckerberg nodded understandingly, then shook the document in his hand, as if he was about to say something more, beside him, Priscilla bumped him with her elbow, ignored his inexplicable eyes, and said apologetically: "Mr. Ahn Junhyuk, we also saw your affairs in South Korea here, and yesterday we got the news that you were coming, Mark was still very guilty, and he had to trouble you for the sake of Facebook, but we can't help it!"
Zuckerberg opened his mouth, but then his mouth was a little deformed, and from the trembling of his body and the change in Priscilla's center of gravity, Ahn Joon-hyuk could see that he was afraid that his poor feet were being cared for by his girlfriend's heels at this time.
Someusefully shook his head.
Time can change many things, but some can't always be changed, such as Zuckerberg's unsociable otaku personality, I remember that two years ago, also in the middle of summer in August, I came to Palo Alto for the first time, and Zuckerberg who received him at that time, the only thing that was a little decent hospitality was nothing more than a few Budweiser beers.
However, he also appreciates the other party, and he can rest assured that he will hand over the equity to Zuckerberg's agent, also because of the other party's unsociability. If he is the second Bill Gates, I am afraid that he can only fight with him with all his strength to ensure his rights and interests in Facebook, and he must not slack off, otherwise he will be kicked out of the board of directors.
Zach is an idealist, and although there are many examples of whether it is a dream or reality, an idealist is not reliable, but that is in conflict with their ideals, for the time being. There is no conflict between him and Zuckerberg.
"It doesn't matter. After all, Facebook also has my share, and I naturally have to come over and talk to Zach personally about this kind of big thing......" He smiled and looked at Priscilla, a Chinese American who was not good-looking in the eyes of Orientals. smiled: "...... Moreover. Zach and I are old friends, too. ”
"yes. Priscilla, Ann has been really supportive of me. Zuckerberg, who bared his teeth and grinned for a long time, endured his girlfriend's destruction and spoke. "We said at the beginning that we wanted to change the way people communicate together, and Ann and I share the same ideals, and he will definitely understand me. ”
…… Fool......
Priscilla rolled her eyes, a little helpless, she is not Zuckerberg, her IQ and EQ are directly proportional, just said that sentence, there is one thing she did not say wrong, she and Zuckerberg did pay attention to Ahn Junhyuk's movements in South Korea, unlike Mark who purely cares, she wants to see what kind of person this partner who supports him the most and most importantly in Mark's mouth.
To be honest, when she first learned that Facebook's second largest shareholder was actually an idol star in South Korea, Priscilla was surprised, although she was a descendant of immigrants and didn't have much impression and understanding of Asia, she also understood more or less how the concept of idol star was different from ordinary stars.
In Asia, "idol" and vase mostly mean the same thing, even in the United States, "idol" is usually associated with XX parties, marijuana, drugs, alcoholism, etc., almost all of them are the most unpursued and most ignorant group of people in the entertainment industry, but as far as she knows, this Korean named Ahn Jun Hyuk has invested more than $40 million in Facebook in four rounds of financing, even after several dilutions, the current shareholding ratio is second only to Mark.
MARK SAID THAT ANN SHARES THE SAME IDEALS AS HIM, AND THAT THEY ARE BOTH SUPPORTERS OF WEB 2.0 AND BELIEVE THAT A CHANGE IN THE WAY PEOPLE COMMUNICATE IS IMMINENT.
But after studying Ahn Joon-hyuk's recent days, Priscilla is increasingly disapproving of Mark's optimism. Ideals change, just like Saverin, who was initially persuaded by Mark's ideal of changing the way people communicate, but in the end, he succumbed to the pressure of the company's unprofitable work, and when his abilities and ideas could no longer afford Facebook to move forward, he fell behind, and then left Facebook to start another similar company, and then the friendship between the two sides came to an end, even to the point of going to court.
Looking at Ahn Joon-hyuk's performance in South Korea, every step he makes, how can he have the slightest taste of idealism? Everywhere is full of the smell of capitalists' banknotes, using funds to set off a huge litigation battle, attracting the attention of almost everyone, and using funds to force SK Group to fight, as a result, now as a battlefield of pan-Thai mourning, almost completely collapsed, the entire South Korean mobile phone manufacturing industry, also directly or indirectly affected by his actions, facing a crisis of confidence and struggling to support.
This is a very dangerous man!
Looking at Ahn Joon-hyuk, who had already taken the documents handed over by Mark and was concentrating on flipping through them, Priscilla frowned.
There is no doubt that in the aesthetic of the Oriental, this man is very handsome and attractive, and for a woman, he can be an angel or a demon, but, definitely not an idealist!
However, Priscilla still underestimated Mark's trust in Ahn Joon-hyuk.
On the first day of meeting, Zuckerberg mainly explained the company's development and planning to Ahn Junhyuk, the most determined partner, face-to-face, and the two sides did not talk much about the company's receipt of the acquisition offer, and ate a little at the café at noon - Priscilla originally wanted to find a Chinese restaurant to entertain, but Ahn Junhyuk knew that Chinese food in the United States has basically changed the taste of South Korea, so the three of them ate a little casually in the café - In the afternoon, Ahn Junhyuk returned to the hotel where he stayed in San Francisco.
In the evening, after seeing off Ahn Jun-hyuk and returning to his rental house near Stanford, Zuckerberg, who had been much silent along the way, suddenly shouted, "Priscilla......"
"Huh?"
"You say......" he frowned, as if he was a little hesitant and very excited, "you say...... How about I ask Ann to be the CEO of Facebook?" (To be continued......)
