Chapter 36

    Gu Xincheng spent a fulfilling Thanksgiving holiday in California. After returning to Boston, she once again devoted herself to the intense and busy study life. The final exam is coming, and she faces a lot of paper work.

    At the end of each year, people feel like they are facing an enemy, and the seats in the library become tense, which is quite similar to the Harvard Library in domestic rumors.

    Apart from the busy study, Gu Xincheng did not forget to socialize.

    Her previous social circle was quite narrow. When she was a freshman and a sophomore, she was too busy studying. She didn't realize that university contacts are a valuable resource—it is even more important than studying well when she enters the society.

    The advantage of coming to a new environment is that you can completely abandon your previous self and start over.

    It is said that the university has an impossible triangle, that is, between study, social life, and sleep, at most two of the three.

    While young, Gu Xincheng sacrificed a lot of sleep time.

    Where can't I sleep? Why sleep at Harvard?

    There is a saying that is even more exaggerated, there is no need to sleep too much during life, and you can sleep forever after death.

    On weekends, Anthony invited her and a few classmates to attend an open-air concert on campus.

    The concert was held in a small square, a simple stage was set up, and many students came.

    It's freezing cold in Boston in December, but it can't dampen everyone's enthusiasm.

    The sound wave of the band swept over like a wave, and the audience cheered and swayed. This was a carnival before the final exam.

    Until the end of the show, Gu Xincheng's eardrums were still in pain.

    "Isn't it wonderful?" Anthony asked.

    Gu Xincheng thought, it would be better if the voice could be lowered.

    But what she said was: "It's very good."

    After winter, the lawn on both sides of the road was covered with a layer of withered yellow, and the grass leaves were covered with frost.

    The two walked side by side on the road, the dim streetlights did not bring warmth, Gu Xincheng rubbed her cold hands and breathed—she overestimated the temperature at night and forgot to wear gloves.

    "Look, that building." Anthony pointed to the front.

    Gu Xincheng looked in the direction of his finger, and saw an ordinary dormitory building.

    "That's the dormitory where Zuckerberg lived."

    "Really?"

    "He started Facemash (the predecessor of Facebook) with his laptop in this dormitory."

    This is a well-known entrepreneurial story.

    Facemash is a prank by Zuckerberg, who knows that this website has been wildly sought after by college students. Harvard University asked Zuckerberg to shut down Facemash, and Zuckerberg later dropped out of Harvard to start Facebook.

    But now, he may be one of Harvard's most distinguished alumni, and Harvard even awarded him a replacement degree.

    Before him, another well-known Harvard alumnus, Bill Gates, dropped out to start Microsoft.
