Chapter 37: The Stranger
"Oh, 507 on the fifth floor, it should be here. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Sid pointed to the house number in the hallway.
"Yes, this is it. Rem nodded.
Sid then knocked on the door of 507, and immediately, a tall and thin figure opened the door, and the other party asked with a wary look, "Who are you looking for?"
"Uh, does Shaun Parker live here?" asked Sid, confused.
"Who are you?" not only did the other party not answer Sid, but looked at Sid and Rem behind him more vigilantly.
"Me?" Sid smiled, "I'm Sean's friend, man, calm down, who do you think I am." ”
"Oooh. The other party looked at Sid again, indeed, Sid was too young to be one of those guys, and then the other party breathed a sigh of relief, "Sorry, man, I thought ...... No, nothing, you want to see Sean?"
Then the other party stepped out of the way, and Sid and Rem walked in, a fairly clean two-bedroom apartment. "Well, where is Sean?" asked Sid curiously as he entered.
"Oh oh, he stayed in the guest room with his girlfriend. The tall, thin young man pointed to a room pointing to Yang, and saw that there was a tie on it.
Sid couldn't help but ask with some sarcasm, "They're ...... right now , that?"
"Well, what?" the tall and thin young man asked suspiciously, and then he followed Sid's finger to see the tie on the doorknob of the guest room, which made him immediately wave his hand in a hurry, "No, no, this is the last time they tied it, and they forgot to take it off." ”
Anyway, how can you be so clear, little brother? Don't you have your own private life, and you spend all your time at home listening to the corner of the room.
Sid thought silently with "malicious" speculation, and the tall and thin little brother stood up enthusiastically: "Then you sit down, I'll go see if Sean is up or not." ”
"He's not up yet?" Sid raised his eyebrows in surprise, "It's ten o'clock in the morning." ”
"Hehe, you don't know, he's been doing a good time all this time...... Toughly, so, sometimes it's quite sloppy. The tall and thin little brother said as he walked to the door of the guest room and knocked, "Hey, Sean, Karen, are you up?"
After a while, a young woman with red hair and blue eyes opened the door, she was wearing a wide HelloKitty pajamas, and her face still had the tiredness of waking up early: "What's wrong?"
"Sean's friends came looking for him. The tall and thin guy pointed in the direction of the living room.
The redhead leaned out to look into the living room, and Sid smiled and held out his hand in greeting, "Hello, good morning." ”
Seeing Sid, who had black-haired demon eyes, the red-haired girl subconsciously replied, "Hi." Then she tilted her head: "You look familiar." ”
"Really, everybody says I have a public face. Sid smiled quietly.
"Then you wait a minute, I'll wake up Sean. Saying that, the redhead went back to the bedroom, and then Sid and the others heard her wake up another man: "Hey, Sean, get up, get up." ”
"What are you doing!" replied in a languid man's voice after a moment's pause.
"You've got a friend coming to you. The girl said.
"Friend?" asked the man.
"I don't know, I didn't ask. The girl replied, and then the girl shouted again, "Why are you sleeping again!?
But the man turned over and fell asleep nonchalantly, while muttering: "I don't want to see anyone now, let them go!"
The girl was obviously annoyed by the man's combative, decadent appearance, and she pushed the man: "How did you become like this! What's the use of staying at home all day! If you do this, you might as well go to Starbucks and serve dishes!"
The man was immediately enraged, only to hear him laugh loudly: "Starbucks? haha, you let me serve the plates?"
Hearing this, Sid couldn't help but speak aloud: "Sean Parker, the man who can break into the Pentagon's website, why is he being beaten by a few record sellers now?"
The man in the bedroom immediately shouted angrily, "Who's talking!"
Then a young man with short brown hair rushed out of the bedroom. The appearance of the other party's angry outburst made Rem move forward a little, but when he saw the appearance of the man clearly, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. The tall and thin little brother's eyes widened, and Sid smiled slightly at the corners of his mouth.
For no other reason, this young man who came out was actually running naked naked!
This guy is really a wonderful person!
Sid thought amusedly, and then he leaned back on the couch and laughed, "Hello, Sean Parker." ”
――――――――――――――――――――
This year's Silicon Valley has been particularly lively, starting from the bursting of the Nasdaq bubble at the beginning of the year, whether it is the violent turmoil of Yahoo, the king of Yahoo yesterday, or the half-way death of a large number of Internet companies, and even Microsoft has been hit hard.
But the bankruptcy of one of the Silicon Valley companies was rarely related to the Nasdaq stock market bubble – the later famous Napster, the first P2P (music) piracy site in history.
Because of music piracy and infringement, Napster has been frantically entangled and sued by record companies since last year, and the two founders of Napster finally took the initiative to file for bankruptcy at the beginning of this year.
And Shaun Parker, as the founder, as the least popular person in Silicon Valley, ended up penniless and had to live in a friend's house.
In later "history", the name Sean Parker was really known because of David Fincher's legendary book "The Social Network". Because of his involvement in the early days of Facebook, the name Sean Parker returned to the mainstream of Silicon Valley a few years later.
In the film, Sean Parker is portrayed as a character with a flamboyant and indulgent personality, and even a character who must be retribution, or rather, a character with a bit of villain.
In fact, the so-called hateful person must have pity.
Sean Parker, as the person who profoundly influenced Mark Zuckerberg "in history", actually has his own unique talent and charm.
Born in 1979 as a talented hacker, Sean Parker developed a unique hobby as a teenager - attacking websites around the world, including classified internal websites of the government and military.
When he was 16 years old, once, after his father got up in the morning, he found that he hadn't slept all night and was still surfing the Internet.
