01x02 - Episode 2

[bunniefuu]

Yeah.

That's it.

We'll do spot trading for now.

Do you want margin trading too?

Of course.

Thai people and
gambling come in pairs.

Long or short is
essentially high or low.

Okay. Then I will set up the
fees to our advantage as well.

But we need to check
if we can do it legally.

Add these to the presentation.

Okay. Got it.

And you, Get.

You're Grandiva's
brand ambassador.

Are you saying...

I'm the one talking to the public
and the press to build trust?

[scoffs]

Are you insane? How
am I supposed to do that?

I don't know as much as you do.

You are the founder.
You do it.

I want you to do it.

[sighs]

When you talked me into this,

I thought you wanted
an investor and partner.

I'm fine with that,

but to talk to the public
as if I started this company

despite me not having any clue?

[in English] No way.
[laughs]

[in Thai]
This is your job.

But you graduated
in Financial Economics.

Brush up a bit, update
yourself on cryptocurrency,

and you're good.

Besides, you can do
better than me

because of your connections
with the politicians' families.

You can help us find
investors to build our platform.

[sighs]

[sighs]

[lighter clicking]

[exhales]

Tsk.

[sighs]

If you want to use me of being a
big politician's son as a fast track,

I don't think I can help.

I'm a nobody to the
public and my dad.

I know

that your family issue
is complicated.

I just think this is
a good opportunity

for you to prove yourself
to your dad.

You're building a future
business on your own.

I'm sure as soon as he knows,

he'll gladly help you.

You're too optimistic.

Tsk.

Remember when you
just moved to our school?

The art class.

[tense music playing]

What's the assignment?
Is it due today?

Yeah.

Ms. Fon gave us last week. I
don't think a new kid has to do it.

You'll get a zero.

[applause]

Next, number 40.
Pirat.

My work

is named
"The Youth's Future."

The brush strokes

seem unified, right?

But it's unstable and confusing.

They represent students
in school following rules

despite craving freedom as
their free will urges them to,

but they couldn't get it.

In the end,
once all of them graduate,

it's like a void.

You can call it a black
hole, nothingness,

or even death.

But this is the end
of the beauty

that is decorated with
nasty colors given by society.

[applause]

[teacher]
That's deep, Pirat.

So, what was the reason you
got an A plus for that class?

I just babbled.

Anything that came into
my mind. I didn't plan it.

You call that a babbling,

but for me,

I call it a salesman's instinct.

If someone mentions Apple,

who comes to your mind first?

Hmm.

Steve Jobs? Right?

In reality, Steve Wozniak

is Jobs's partner
who founded Apple with him.

Few people know Wozniak.
No one talks about him.

In my opinion,

he's probably better at computer
engineering than Steve Jobs.

Steve Jobs, however, was so good
at selling Apple products worldwide.

He sold stories

and images.

And now, whenever
someone mentions Apple,

people only think of Steve Jobs.

So, you want me to be Steve Jobs

and you are...

that guy

based on the presentation
I gave during high school?

I have always been
the one in the backstage.

And you,

you love attention, don't you?

Are you saying
I'm an attention seeker?

[laughs] No.

Good stuff

won't be bought if we
don't know how to sell them.

Grandiva is good stuff.

I believe in you, Get.

You're better than
you think you are.

Your job is to sell.

Sell however you can to make
Grandiva known to lots of people.

Don't worry about
the back office.

Jane and I will support you.

If you're not in...

I'll do it.

Bank,

I will do this.

[theme music playing]

[Bank]
Cryptocurrency fluctuates

based on market demands.

It works like gold.

[Get] So, if the market
wants it,

the price goes up?

If no one wants it,
the price goes down.

What's important right now

is for you to familiarize yourself
with the cryptocurrency market.

See what currencies there are
and what kind.

It's not about
a good or bad coin.

It's about our marketing.

How are we going to do that?

We need to let people know
that our coin exists.

We're not marketing this
to normal everyday people.

We're marketing this
to club VIPs.

We just have to show a
glimpse of our wallet to them.

Nice and simple.

We let them know
we're trading this coin,

and focus on word of mouth.

And then,

our coin will seem more
credible than being on the news.

Blockchain is
a critical game changer.

Not only that it allows
digital transactions,

it has lots of benefits.

Tsk.

[sighs]

Not catchy enough.

You know what?

I got an idea.

[clears throat]

Blockchain is critical
to all cryptocurrency investors

as it is safe, transparent,
and without borders.

Get.

Hmm?

An update on investors?

I've made a list.

Most are my friends' families.

They're all rich and from a
diverse range of businesses.

Their relatives are all my
friends. They'll be in on this.

Have you talked to your
brother and your dad?

Why?

I can find investors on my own.

Didn't you say
you're confident in me?

I am,

but we need someone
who can push us fast.

What do you mean?

[sighs] I indeed want
someone with lots of money,

but I also want someone with a
vision and trust in cryptocurrency.

I agree.

This is a new business.

We need like-minded people.

You're thinking of someone?

Yeah.

Mr. Trin,
the owner of T-Asset.

Out of all the top
entrepreneurs in Thailand,

he's the one who made it clear

that he believes
in cryptocurrency.

He also believes that it
can create business value.

Furthermore,
according to my research,

your brother works with him.

Wait, wait, wait.

How did you know that?

Try googling it.

I want you to discuss
this with your brother

and find a way for us
to pitch this to Mr. Trin.

Sure. I can definitely
talk to him about this.

sh*t.

What?

What is it?

"The beginning
of a bloody inheritance.

"A m*rder happened
in Pattanahirun family

"and Mr. Trin
is the only survivor.

"He inherited
the entire T-Asset.

"Rumor has it that Mr. Trin
might be the one behind this,

"but no evidence
has been found."

Do you really need this guy?

The news says he's innocent.

The more we know about him,
the better. No?

We'd want to react accordingly.

As expected, Mr. Wichit has
switched to a new party,

the Thai Watthana Party.

According to the interview,

we can expect him to fill the
position developing the economy.

[cameras clicking]

Are you worried
about the next election?

To be honest, I'm not.

Despite working
under a new party,

my past work should guarantee

that no matter
which party I'm with,

the benefits of the
country and people

are my top priority.

Either as part of the government
or a coalition government.

[reporter] We'd like to know
about the procurement case.

What's the update
on the football field?

Everything is being processed
per the procedure.

I'd like to inform you

that my dad has submitted
all evidence to the NACC.

There hasn't been
any response from them.

Our intention is honest.

We'll always happily
facilitate the process.

[chuckles]

[cellphone vibrating]

Please excuse me.

[indistinct chatter]

Uh, about our future work...

[Get] Hello, Ice!

[slow jazz music
playing on speakers]

[Get] Ice.

Get.

What is this?

Grandiva,

the first exchange market to let Thai
people into the world of cryptocurrency.

I believe this is
the new future of money.

Like the internet in the 2000s.
Now it has become our life.

And now this,
a real modern business.

You've been away for a
few months to work on this?

[chuckles]

I'm looking for partners.

So, I want your help.

You want me to invest?

No.

Could you
contact Mr. Trin?

You're working with him, right?

Why him?

His interviews show his interest
and support in cryptocurrency.

Besides, he's got
loads of money.

He's the best investor
I could get.

[chuckles]

I'll try asking him,

but I can't promise you
he'll agree.

Anytime is good.
My team is always ready.

But the sooner, the better.

Okay. I'll see
what I can do.

What troubles brought you
back here after all these years?

Let me guess.
Money.

Ice, teach him life.

Dad.

I'm leaving.

It's time for you to find a job.

You can't live off your
parents all your life.

[sighs]

I'll be waiting
for the good news.

BAN BAN PORK BBQ

[sizzling]

[upbeat rock music
playing on speakers]

Oh god!

So good!

It melted in my mouth!

You're exaggerating.
This is just pork BBQ.

You don't understand the
art of cooking pork BBQ.

You want to pick it up when they're
hot and cool it down with your sauce.

And you put it in your mouth.

Shut up and keep peeling
the shrimp, Ms. Programmer.

I'll stab your mouth
with this shrimp!

[laughs]

Mmm.

Hey, that's not cooked.

I placed them clockwise.

You need to wait.

Hmm.

You're organizing
pork pieces now?

Okay, okay. Here.

Mmm!

This one's cooked.
So good!

What a life. No
cooking, just eating?

[Get laughs]

Mister, can you please
buy my flowers?

[cellphone ringing]

Ice's calling.
That's quick.

I'll go talk to him.

Please buy my flowers.

How much?

Twenty baht each.
Please help me. Buy some.

I'm buying all of that.

That's ten.
It'll be 200 baht.

What?

Can I borrow your money?

You don't have 200 baht?

Mmm.

Thank you.

You don't need to return it.

That's for the pork BBQ.

Thanks.

Try carrying cash sometimes.

There isn't QR code
payment everywhere.

Do you know
that vendors in China

and even beggars
have their own QR codes?

Our world has advanced so much.

You talk too much.

Give me back my 200.
I'll give you the code.

Nope.

Bad news.

Ice called to tell me
that Mr. Trin refused.

What now?

If he doesn't
accept our meeting,

we'll make him arrange
a meeting with us.

It's time

for Guru Get to introduce
himself to the public.

Greetings to the press

and audiences at home
listening via our podcast.

Welcome to Grandiva,

your bite-sized
cryptocurrency learning space.

You're with me,
Get, Pirat Charoenkit.

And today's topic is

Bitcoin and its store of value.

If we're talking
about cryptocurrency,

I guess everyone's
thinking of Bitcoin.

In reality, hundreds of
cryptocurrency have been created.

Each has its own function,
up to seven different of them.

One of that is our main course.

Value-retaining asset
or store of value.

I'm sure gold comes
to everyone's mind.

That's an asset that people
assign a high value to.

When it comes to Ethereum Chain,

many might not have
heard of it before.

Nonetheless,
it's an important step

in revolutionizing blockchain.

It opens up opportunities for
developers to build platforms

where users can conduct
financial transactions on their own

without the need
for intermediaries.

To create an exchange market
for cryptocurrency or stocks,

liquidity is essential.

Think of an ATM that is
stormed by a lot of people.

So much that it runs out
of 100-baht notes.

That left us with a choice
of 1,000-baht notes or none.

If something similar happens
on a cryptocurrency exchange,

that means we'll be screwed.

I hope you learned something
about cryptocurrency today.

I'm Pirat Charoenkit
from Grandiva.

Before we go...

[stops video]

Do you know anything
about Grandiva?

And who is this presenter, Get?

Pirat Charoenkit.
That name sounds familiar.

Uh...

Ah. He's the younger brother
of Mr. Ice.

He's also the son of
Mr. Wichit Lerdpadungwong.

Ice has a brother?

He never tells me about him.

It's been said that there
are issues within the family.

That's why Mr. Wichit didn't
let Get use the last name.

Besides, he didn't let the public
know he's a son like he did with Mr. Ice.

Can you look into Grandiva?

Of course.

Come see me at my office.

[cellphone vibrating]

Hello, Ice.

[footsteps approaching]

[Get] Bank!

Bank!

Mr. Trin agreed
to meet us tomorrow!

Yeah!

I guess we're not
getting sleep tonight.

I'll review the pitch
I prepared.

[exclaiming]

[sighs]

This way.

[elevator dings]

Please.

[button clicks]

[breathing heavily]

[breathing heavily]

Are you alright?

[clock ticking]

You must be Grandiva.

Welcome.

Let's talk outside.

I listened to your
podcast a lot.

They're excellent.

[chuckles]

Thank you.

I'll need some time to
set up my presentation.

I've prepared information
about Grandiva in various aspects

which show our
growth potential and...

No need.

I've studied
the top foreign platforms.

I'm sure you have and are
using them as your model too.

Let's skip the part
we're familiar with.

I have one question for you.

How confident are you in the
recovery of the cryptocurrency market?

Uh...

In truth,

"confident" isn't
the right word here.

I prefer "likely."

We can't predict this market.

Just like how we can't
with stocks, oil, or gold.

They fluctuate
based on many factors.

I...

I will adjust
our plan accordingly.

Are you saying you're entering
a market you lack confidence in?

[chuckles]

No.

Is he really your brother?

I accept this meeting only
because of your dad's credibility.

I expected more.

A lot more.

What a shame.

Excuse me.

All three of us are actually
strongly confident in cryptocurrency.

Fluctuation is normal.

Sometimes, the fluctuation
reveals opportunity.

To be the leader,
we must take risks.

Just like you.

Even though you're
in the bear market,

you added balance to
your company with Bitcoin.

Is that true?

You know what's going on
in my company.

You did your research well.

What I'm looking for is
the symbolic expression

which shows that this
is the asset of the future,

out of which, normal people,

especially the new
generations, can build wealth.

Free themselves
from the old financial system

where the top one percent of
capitalists control everything.

Excuse me.

A capitalist from the
one percent like you

is saying that he wants
the other 99% to be wealthy

and have a better
quality of life,

but in reality, he's trying
to consolidate everything:

fiat money and cryptocurrency.

Isn't that hypocritical?

Bank.

Get to the point.

I think we should call it a day.

What I wanted to say is that

a capitalist
from the one percent

spending his resources
to create opportunities

for the 99%
to create wealth faster

and without hurdles
presented in the old system,

while seeking benefits
from such investment

is nothing unusual

or hypocritical.

I might consider it
doing them a favor.

I'm really interested
in cryptocurrency,

but I'm not confident in Grandiva's
ability to achieve my goal.

Thank you for meeting me today.

Good luck.

[vomiting]

[breathing heavily]

[cellphone vibrating]

Hello.

You guys can go.

I need to run some errands.

[sighs]

[sighs]

We worked days and nights.

It was for nothing.

We may have some hope left.

Let me try again.

You can get home
yourself today, right?

What are you going to do?

Trust me.

Hello, Ice.
Are you home?

Okay.

I'll see you.

PIROMRAK HOSPITAL: PATIENT CARD
PIMCHANOK KIATMONGKOL

[birds chirping]

[keyboard clacking]

[Bank]
She seems sad.

She's got lymphoma.

She's been given chemotherapy,
but it hasn't gone away.

She pukes sometimes.

But Ms. Ped
is a fighter.

She's been fighting it
for many years.

What do you do with her
when you're away?

Do you just leave her
in the van?

I have a bar staff
take care of her.

Ms. Ped!

We're together forever.

We'll go to America together.

Why America?

I don't know.

That's where lots of people
start their new lives.

What if Grandiva
becomes a success?

Won't you stay with us?

Let's see if that day will come.

Your favorite investor
just rejected us.

What now?

We'll find a way.

Right?

[cellphone chimes]

I need to go run some errands.

Mmm.

[crickets chirping]

[Get] Instead of copying them,

you might as well
just buy a printer.

I'm too lazy to carry
them from a printing shop.

They're probably richer
than us by now.

[Get] Someone wants
to exercise? Come here.

Hey!

[elevator dings]

[transformer explodes]

Hey!

What the f*ck?

[tense music playing]

Short circuit
with the transformer?

Help!

Help.
We're stuck!

Help us, please!

[voices distorting]

Help! Help!

Help!
Can you hear...

Hey!

Bank!

Bank!
Are you alright?

[breathing heavily]

Huh?

The backup power.

Let's worry about you first!

Get the backup power.

Go!

Are you crazy!
We're not leaving you.

Just go! Now!

[breathing heavily]

[grunting]

[breathing heavily]

[beeping]

[beeping]

[beeps]

[breathing heavily]

sh*t, I forgot.

Damn it.

I spent an entire
night editing this.

There's the autosave feature.
Don't you know that?

You can recover it.

But what a day this was.

Did we get up on the
wrong side of the bed?

Bank?

Are you alright?

Panic attack
in a confined space?

How long have you
been having this?

I never knew that.

I'm fine.

Do you want to see a doctor?

No.

Let's get to work.

There's still much to be done.

No!

We've been working too hard.

We're stressing out. This
is not the time to work.

You need a break.
We need a break.

Let's recharge ourselves.

[music stops]

[muffled upbeat music
playing in distance]

[sighs]

How long have you been
experiencing panic attacks?

Since I was a kid.

I already took my medication,

but nothing could
really stop it,

considering what happened today.

Why?

You care about me?

[scoffs]

I'm afraid my partner will
die before this project is done.

[exclaims]

I almost forgot.

Happy birthday.

I told you I learned
a lot about you.

Besides, your birthday
is easy to remember.

You were born on the same
date as Thomas Alva Edison.

You're a nerd.

[laughs]

Consider this beer
a birthday gift.

I think it was a good idea
to have Get bring us here.

We're celebrating your
birthday while we're at it.

Thanks.

[chuckles]

While we're on this topic,

you learned a lot
about me, didn't you?

How about I learn about you too?

I'm head. You're tail.

What side it lands on,
that person gets to ask.

The other must answer.
You got it?

We don't need that.

Just ask away.

Okay.

I appreciate that.

Let me start.

Yup.

Why did you bring me on board?

Out of all hackers, you're the
only one who can solve my code.

And quickly, too.

I'm glad

to have chosen the right person.

Can I exchange that
compliment for a higher pay?

Let's continue.

Shouldn't it be my turn?

What?

Didn't you know
all about me already?

What are you going to ask?

Do you have a boyfriend?

I tried looking,
but I found nothing.

At this place,

and considering
our workplace relationship,

this is straight-up
sexual harassment.

[laughs]

I can sue you.

Are you serious?

Okay. I'm sorry.

How about...

changing it to...

Uh...

[clicks tongue]

You have wasted your questions.

My turn now.

[chuckles]

Can you tell me
about your family?

My family?

My parents died when I was young

due to an accident.

I've always been alone.

I won a scholarship
to study abroad.

Once I graduated,
I flew back to Thailand.

That's it.

My condolences.

Sorry for asking.

It's okay.

Let me ask you back.

Tell me about your family.
