请进俱乐部谈合作：a no-brainer

俱乐部里，温克沃斯兄弟请马克吃三明治，推销他们的「哈佛社交网」，卖点就是 exclusivity（排外）：只有哈佛学生能进。他们还请马克来写代码，他只回 I'm in（我加入）。

发生了什么

温克沃斯兄弟和合伙人迪维亚把马克请进波塞利安俱乐部，边递三明治边兜售一个叫 Harvard Connection 的校内社交网站。他们先夸马克做过的 Facemash 和 CourseMatch，说 When we checked you out（我们把你查了个遍）；再介绍产品：建个人主页、放兴趣和朋友，最大卖点就是 exclusivity（排外），因为 Harvard 邮箱是全美最有声望的地址。他们请人来写代码，还承诺能 rehabilitate your image（帮你挽回形象）。对方只回一句 I'm in（我加入）。想学推销、恭维和干脆表态，这一段全是句子。

Girls wanna go with guys who go to Harvard.

女生想跟去哈佛的男生在一起。 把生意的全部逻辑压成一句大实话：卖的不是网站，是哈佛身份。坦白、庸俗，也准确。

It was kind of a no-brainer.

那其实是闭着眼都能做的事。 轻描淡写把别人的作品降格成常识。既是自夸，也是他们日后看轻主角的伏笔。

So, what can I do for you? Did I insult your girlfriends?

所以，找我有事？我是不是得罪你们女朋友了？ 一开口就把来意猜成感情纠纷，写尽主角的防御与不合群，也成了全片第一个笑点。

Harvard. Edu is the most prestigious e-mail address in the country, man.

哈佛邮箱是全美最有声望的电子邮箱，老兄。 把一所学校的邮箱说成全国最值钱的身份，直白到好笑，也点出排他的核心。

关于这一章的问题

a no-brainer 是什么意思？

字面是「不用脑子的事」，指显而易见、根本不需要犹豫的选择。台词里马克说 CourseMatch it was kind of a no-brainer，是自谦「那项目容易做」，也显得他不太把对方的夸赞当回事。

taking it in the shins 怎么理解？

shin 是小腿，taking it in the shins 字面是「小腿挨踢」，引申为一再被打击、被批得够呛。台词里对方说 you've been taking it in the shins，是在点破马克最近舆论上的狼狈。

「挽回形象」英语怎么说？

rehabilitate your image。rehabilitate 本指帮人康复、改过，用来讲名声就是「修复、挽回」。台词里说 this could help rehabilitate your image，等于递上一根橄榄枝。

checked you out 是什么意思？

意思是「把你查了个遍、摸过底」，不是字面的「试试」。台词里 When we checked you out, you also built CourseMatch，就是「我们查过你，发现你还做了 CourseMatch」，说明他们做足了功课。

他们凭什么觉得这个网站会火？

靠排外。他们要的是「只有哈佛学生才能进」的稀缺感，因为哈佛邮箱全美最有声望，女生也想跟哈佛男生约会，这种专属感正是他们和 MySpace 拉开差距的地方。
