JANUARY 2019

[reporter on TV]
In recent months,

everybody heard
about cryptocurrency

and the most outstanding
currency is Bitcoin.

Its price went up
so rapidly high.

Now Bitcoin exchange rate
is $3,521 for 1 BTC.

That's more than


However, even though
the BTC price soars so high,

here in Thailand,

it seems that
all these digital currencies

still can't seriously gain
any trust.

Analysts see that all these
crypto have no real value.

It was invented out of thin
air with no real use case.

Some even criticized harshly
that all these currencies

are just another ponzi scheme.

CRYPTO: FUTURE OR PONZI SCHEME?

Today we have a guest
with an interesting opinion.

I'm with Mr. Trin
from T-Asset,

one of the top three
companies in Thailand.

He'll share his opinions
about this.

And he's with me now.
Hello.

Regarding cryptocurrency,

do you think it would
gain real value someday?

For me, crypto is a real deal,
a future.

Bitcoin is a limited assets.

And because it's new,

people who don't understand
may devalue it

and may think
that it's nonsense.

Let me put it this way.

In 2011, one American kid

who bought Bitcoin for $1,000.

It was around 30,000 baht.

Now, eight years later,
he has over 100 million baht.

Without doing anything else.

Do you think this is something?

[exclaims]

That's a very
interesting introduction.

We'll take a short break
and next...

[keyboard clacking]

[tense music playing]

[sighing]

[theme music playing]

[8-bit Thai instrumental music
playing on TV]

Hey Uncle, check please.

It's 125 baht.

Can I pay with QR code?

What QR code?

[sighing]

[sighs]

Let's continue drinking.

[siren blaring in distance]

[suspenseful music playing]

Hello? What's the rush?
Yeah, be there soon.

[loud electronic music playing]

This is for 7th table.

Hey, Koy.

Hey, Get.

Long time no see,
miss you a lot.

Really?

So come sit with me,
and after the club closes...

then come to my place, ok?

Will we really be ok?

I'm afraid your girlfriend
will beat me.

I really have no girlfriend.

Or I wouldn't be here for you.

So tell me,

what should I do to satisfy you?

Fireworks.

What is it?

It's the most expensive
c*ck here.

It's 7,000 per set.

And I have to score
ten sets tonight

to get a bonus.

If you can buy me all.

Then I'll go with you.

And do whatever you want me to.

Okay.

Bro, I want some better music.

Go away, I'm working.

Hey, what the f*ck?

[women screaming]

[police siren blaring]

[indistinct chatter
on police radio]

[door closing]

[snaps fingers]

[sighing]

[door closes]

Hey, how come you let
him out? He beat me up.

Sit down, Sit!

Mr. Ice, hi.

Hi. Thank you for helping
my younger brother tonight.

With pleasure. Is
everything alright now?

Yes.

[rock music playing on speakers]

[slurping]

Jane, here you are.

Come sit with me tonight.

Drunk again. Don't puke
on customers again this time.

Stop teasing me.

Take care of yourself.
See you.

Jane, Boss is looking for you.

[sizzling]

Hey, that's for customer.

Parking fee,

water, electricity,

and also internet fee,

it's been three months
without pay.

Stop complaining.
I heard you.

How about this?

You don't have to pay me now,

but do me a favor.

What?

Well... same as before.
Same website, same account.

How many times have I told you?

How many times I did it for you?

You'll never ever beat
the casino.

An insider who has created systems
is sitting here. Learn your lessons.

This is one last time
and I'll quit it.

Oh, quite a big lot this time.

[laughs]

Yes, quite a bit.

You know the economy sucks,
so I needed some extra money.

And what would I get?

I'll look into it.
Please help me.

Done.

[laughs]

So what you wanna eat,
just tell me,

it's on me.

No. You owed me.

Where's Ped?

Ah. I'll get her for you.
One moment.

Here she is.

Okay.

Here.

Ped.

Okay.

She ate less again today.

Should you bring her to the vet?

Yes, regularly. Thank you.

Thank you, too.

Ped.

Why don't you eat, huh?

Hey.

How can you get better?

[alarm beeping]

What the f*ck?

[suspenseful music playing]

You wanna mess with me?

Found you.

[alarm beeping]

[chuckles]

What?

Bingo.

Huh.

[sighs]

Thanks, bro.

Thought I'd end up
sleeping in jail.

I had thought to let you
be in there for the night.

So you may wake up a better man.

It's not my fault.
That f*cking DJ punched me first.

I was just defending myself.

Yeah, yeah.
I knew that.

Have you ever thought
about going home?

No. To hear Dad
scolding again?

Listen,

you really get him wrong.

Dad really cares about you.

He did tell me
to get you out tonight.

He's probably afraid this
would ruin his reputation.

Well, you should understand
where he's coming from.

Let's talk about job position.

I've talk to my friend, who is a
partner at the financial brokerage,

I want you to start the job
next week. Okay?

Let me think about it.

Will you ever take
your life seriously?

Or you wanna work
with Dad and I instead?

I'll talk to him.

Can we talk about this later?

If you wanna prove yourself to
Dad that you got something in you

and can make our family proud,

you should work hard,

and concentrate more
on your life.

In Dad's eyes,

everything I do is always wrong.

So why should I try?

It's better to live like this.

If not for Dad,

you have to do it for mom.

All your nonsense...

She passed away years ago.

She can't perceive any of this.

Do you need any money?

[sighs]

Here.

Thanks, big brother.

I always care for you.

Come on.

[door opening]

[suspenseful music playing]

You really wanna sh**t me?

[chuckles]

Airsoft g*n.

When did you come back?

It's been a long time.

Seven years, right?

So long, man.

Recently, I texted you
but no answer.

Thought you're dead.

Sorry, man.
I've been busy on my project.

No time to hesitate with things.

And how do you know I live here?

How did you get in?

Your digital footprint.

sh*t.

I should talk to this
condo about security.

What's up with your face?

Still a big mouth

and got hit again?

I hit him.

I hit him damn hard.

I knocked him to the ground.

[chuckles]

So how are you?

What are you doing now?

I'm looking for my passion.

But nothing comes close.

So I day-traded on stocks,

got a bit of money by doing so.

What about you?

Came back for vacation
or for good?

I have a project.

And would like you
to be my partner.

If you want to talk
about a real job,

let's talk tomorrow.

I'm so tired today.

Cryptocurrency.

[suspenseful music playing]

[sighs]

You want me to bet on crypto?

My friends here
also asked me to.

They said
it'll get me rich quick.

They praised about Bitcoin.

But in the end,

they're just quiet.

Got screwed.

Luckily, I knew nothing
about it, so I didn't follow them.

What's that?

It's called Trezor,

a hardware wallet.

It's like a wallet.

But it keeps only crypto coins.

So take a look.

I have all these coins
since 2016.

Even though
now it's bear market,

but all these coins

made me such a real profit.

To sum it up,

it valued around ten
million baht or more.

Okay.

Now I believe
you're rich from these.

So what?

You want me to follow you
and buy it?

No.

I want to build
a market with you.

Stop using a metaphor
and beating around the bush.

You know I'm stupid!

Make it plain and simple.

We are going to build
a cryptocurrency platform.

Like the Streaming app
for stocks?

See? You're smarter
than you think.

So what do you want me to do?

[Bank] We're going to see
an underground hacker.

Her name is Jane.

[Get] You know her?

[Bank] This hacker was
involved in many big cases.

But never been caught.

Have you heard about

hackers hijacking some data
from e-commerce accounts

and sold it
to an insurance company?

That was a big news.
It was her?

But the highlight is

this hacker brought T-Bank
website down for half the day

and they said it's U-Bank
who hired her.

Must have got paid big for that.

So many major cases.

She's like a reward hunter.

The bounty
is like toys for them.

All these hackers
want one thing.

What is it?

Money.

[Jane] What are you waiting for?

It's overdue
for three hours now.

Wire now, or you'll see
your website crash tomorrow.

[sighs]

[alarm beeping]

sh*t.

Holy sh*t!

[suspenseful music playing]

Who did this?

[car approaching]

f*ck.

Hey, where are you going?

[intense music playing]

[panting]

[switch clicks]

sh*t.

[panting]

You two chased the wrong person.

I'm not the one
you're looking for.

I'm just an admin,
not the owner.

We want you to work with us.

What is it?

You really living in the van?

Get to the point.

This is what I'll get?

Profit,

per person.

I don't like working in a team.

And I don't believe
in this, either.

So I'll pass.

Really?

If you don't believe in crypto,

so why did you steal bitcoins

in the baccarat website
where your boss runs the bots?

And what your anonymous boss

whose name is Prasit Kumperm

would feel

if he knew you stole
his bitcoins?

I heard that he's a gangster.

I really want to ask you this.

Do you really want
to waste all your skills

to maintain these
underground baccarat websites?

We all have the same goal.

To build wealth

and get what we can get

for a better future.

You also want to get out
of this country

and live in the US, right?

But how could you go?

Investor visa?

E-2 Investor visa

can cost at least $100,000.

And the financial statements
must be clean too.

So how can you be sure

that what you are doing now

will make you reach that goal?

If you come work with us,

I think you might get
a better chance.

Deal?

When can we start?

You guys take an elevator.

See you on the 6th floor.

Hey, why don't you come with us?

I like to walk.

[elevator dings]

[Get] You just moved in?

I've lived here for a while.

There's a fine line between
being minimal and destitute.

It's so haunting
like some horror movies.

[beeps]

This is an international
exchange platform.

It earns more than
$1.3 billion in rolling

after starting
for just a few years.

And that will be us.

And how about the fundings?

For the first funding,

I'll pay it all.

If my calculation is correct,
we will run out in two months.

Two months?

Yes.

Within two months, we'll have
to build a mock-up platform.

And sell it to investors

to make more funding
to our project.

What would you name it?

[clicks]

[Bank] Grandiva.

The magic bow for Indian gods.

It will make
the bowman invincible.

And it can make a normal arrow



This is what we are going to do.

Building an exchange market.

An official crypto
platform in Thailand.

And we'll be a pioneer.

Because the first one

will dominate all the market

and the huge money.

I hope that this urgent meeting

will be worth my weekend.

We're really sorry,
Mr. Trin.

I'll cut to the chase.

Our executives are
concerned about your decision

to make Bitcoin as a
reserves for T-Asset.

What's the problem?

There're no laws
to support this.

Besides, this coming Monday

when the stock market opens,
our stocks will drop

because many don't
believe in Bitcoin.

It would be a short-term impact.

Our mission from now on,

we're going to make
Thai people accept crypto.

And it will bring
advantages to our business.

About the laws,

we already have
brilliant lawyers.

But I'd like you
to reconsider this.

From what the executives
voted last time,

almost half of them
disagreed with this.

But more than half
agree with me, right?

Now I'm collecting
casters again,

more than half
chose to disagree.

Name them.

During the 1997
Asian Financial Crisis,

how much were you guys in debt?

Supa.

Janesiri.

Watchara.

Uh...

I think two million baht.

Ten million!

Supa got eight million.

Janesiri got five million.

Suthin almost ten million.

All these 20 years,

I supported you all
by about 100 million.

[tense music playing]

And now how much debts
have you got?

None.

I'll bring our company
to reach new height.

You all must rely
on me as always.

Because in the very near future,

you guys will be much richer.

That's it.

Put together a termination
agreement for Suthin

by the end of the day,

and send a memorandum
for every board member

to sign and agree
with my new plans.

And prepare termination
agreements for those who don't sign.

Sorry, I've just hung up
with my accountant.

Already test-run
the order books?

Yeah.

It looks delayed.

This is just the first draft,
you know it.

No, it's unacceptable.

If we delay even one second,

it will ruin the whole market.

We're making the exchange market,
time is crucial.

Or should I ask
a third-party to help you?

I can do it.

Say what's in your mind.

Okay.

We'll talk about coins
to be listed.

The main coins are

Bitcoin, Ethereum...

Uh...

Ripple,

and Litecoin.

Would you recommend
anything else?

Well...

I want some no-name coins

with low market caps and have
high-growth like ADA or something.

Why so?

Because its low price.

If it goes up just one bit,
margins will be greater.

The day-trader
will be excited about it.

I think it's not the right time.

Our Grandiva have just started.

We should add just mass coins
so that people know about us.

Yes, but...

The other thing is,
the more we list,

the more white papers
we have to read.

And it will consume
more time for us.

I don't see it as a bad thing if we
add a few more options for traders.

As I told you before,

we have costs for our time.

So this is an order, right?

What do you mean?

I'm asking for your opinion.

Do you remember
that I work as a partner?

If you wanna run the business
on your own thoughts,

why did you ask me to join?

Hey.

What happened?

Jane, wait for me.

You look stressed out.

Should we listen
to some songs, okay?

[upbeat music playing
on speakers]

[music stops]

I just wanna keep it silent.

Don't think so much about Bank.

He's always like this,
straight-talking guy.

You want it, too?

Hmm.

Working as a team

would bring some conflict
like this.

That's why I prefer
to be a lone-wolf.

Come on.

Think of it as studying
People's Management course.

If you take this class
at Nottingham,

it would cost you
at least half a million.

This is not the time
and place to play a joke.

One is so serious and
the other is so carefree.

How could you two
become close friends?

It was a long story,

but for you, I'll make it short.

I told you I need silence.

I met Bank at high school.

I entered the school
at mid-semester,

and he was already
a black sheep there.

Bad luck brought us
to know each other.

SCHOOL

Sorry, where's
the fifth building?

A new student?

Get inside.

Hey newbie,

you must be some rich kid.

Look at his accessories.

Give your money
for me to play games.

Hey!

You chose the wrong guy.

You know who my father is?

If you still want to
walk in this school,

let me go.

And if you beg me nicely,

I might allow you
to be my underling.

So you have that power?

Hey!
Search his name.

I'd like to know
who's his daddy.

Found nothing.

as*h*le!
Hey, hold him.

as*h*le.

Next time, bring us more money.

[groans]

[Get groaning]

[door opens]

Before we start,
I have to clear the air.

In fact, it's none
of my business.

But the principal's office
asked me to.

Because there are students
in this class who messed up.

Rumbling happened
in the gym yesterday,

confess it to me now.

Dare to tell me, cowards.

Everybody else's waiting.

[whispering] sh*t.
What should we do?

Be silent,
she's just intimidating.

I'm counting.

Five.

Four.

Hey, hey.

Three.

The remote control.

Two.

Press the green button.

[clicks]

One.

You three in the video,

go to the principal's office.
Now!

[game sounds]

[switch clicks]

Hey, what are you doing?

Watching porn?

It's fun?

I saw so many people playing.

Just k*lling time.

I have nothing to do.

What are you doing here?

What?

Good evening, teacher.

[Ann] What are you doing here?

Bank asked you to join
the Python class?

He's watching porno.

No, I am not.

I knew that.

Since you're here,
want to learn?

Hey.

No way.

We're better with two as always.

Shut it.

Go get ready.

It's lesson Seven.

I'll give you five minutes
to start the computer.

My name's Bank.

What's yours?

Get.

If you have spare time, teach
me how to play your game.

Sure.

[truck horn blaring]

After that, everything
seems to be alright.

I have some more friends.

That g*ng eventually
became friends.

Playing soccer,

partying, I don't know
when it started.

But Bank just has me
as only close friend.

The important things
in life or family,

I only talked to him.

That's why I know I can
trust him and rely on him.

We were close until
he went to study abroad.

And now he's back
asking me to join Grandiva.

A bromance, huh?

What's that?

[tense music playing]

[breath shuddering]

[g*nsh*t]

[breathing heavily]

[theme music playing]
