I want to loan 10 million Baht.

Deposits and withdrawals,

at the teller counters.

I want to open a factory.

I have lots of loan

applications to review.

OK, in one sentence say something

that will make me want to pay attention.

Ittipat Kulpongwanich

Just ignore what you see in front of you

and please listen to me first.

My name is

My name is Herculiz74, and you?

Hey Top, give me the fire blade.

I want 10 million UB for it.

for Top and Bottom.

Once the margins are set

type the information

(I've already discounted the price so no bargaining.)

Make sure you typed your name correctly.

Hi, Hercules,

Could you please sell dragon boots 4 me?

Dude help me. I need it to

Get me my money, or

find the blade yourself.

You already got

everything, nothing left.

Jack, talk to you later.

Bigtoe is asking to

buy something from me.

Sh*t! Really?

No sell. The shoe hard

to find. I have only one.

C'mon man, I'll give you

I want 40 million

Hey. 500 SGD, OK?

Give me your bank account.

I'll transfer right now

Jack, what does SGD stand for?

Singapore Dollar.

Yes, and that's 12,000 Baht! (US$400)

Weren't you worried giving

your bank account to a stranger?

No. It's all good.

Crinum Lily is

blossoming in the field...

May I borrow your bank book?

Why are you using my bank book?

I got 50,000 Baht in mine,

Let's see what will happen.

Sweeeeeeeet.

That's it?

Just for a down payment, then that's it.

Where did you get so much cash?

I'm an arms dealer.

You can't get in without

a parking sticker.

Here is your sticker.

Reserved for School Director

No more excuses. You can go now.

Ittipat, give me your parent's number.

Gosh professor, please don't call them.

How about you deduct 40 merit

points and call it a day.

I don't think you have any points left.

May I donate money for a

new neon sign for the school?

Are you trying to bribe me?

No, sir. I just want

to help out our school.

They call this bribery.

My goodness, why can't

you be like your siblings.

They graduated and got

great jobs working in China.

How are you going to

earn a living, Ittipat?

You're enjoying this, right?

The whole school knows.

But only you get to sit in the car.

Yeah right.

We can't park here. Let's go.

Here's a parking spot.

You want noodles with extra crab, right?

Hey Top!

To go.

Okay.

- How much?

- 280 Baht.

Top!

I got your favorite chestnuts too.

Okay let's just go.

Is dad home already?

Yes since this evening.

Is he sleeping?

Yeah. Is this your car?

Yup.

Move dad's car back.

That should make enough room for mine.

Top. Top.

Press the top button. Press it. Hurry!

If you keep spending money like this.

You will go broke.

Go return your car tomorrow.

Top,

are you betting on soccer games?

I already told you I make

money from my online games.

How?

I already explained and

you just don't get it.

Top

If you don't graduate,

you will be really sorry!

I'm telling you.

All I ask of you

is to study

so don't make us worry.

Examination Results

Examination ID Code

Sorry. Not accepted.

Whoa, so awesome. Super clear image.

There're many new games out

and it can play movies too.

For real?

Yup. But for movie lovers

then this one is better.

Made in China, only

It can't hurt to try. Just

get a new one if it breaks.

And how much is the PS2?

Please don't bargain,

I barely marked it up.

C'mon. I won't even shop around.

Fine 24,500, deal?

What about no discount

and give me this DVD player for free.

No, can't give it away

for free. It's 800 Baht.

Alright then I will shop around then.

Hey bro! Okay. Okay. It's a deal.

Top!

Mom...

You want to play games together?

Hold on. How about your

entrance exam results?

I got accepted,

but in a private university.

It's not that bad, mom.

The tuition fee is

around 50,000-60,000 Baht

It's not that expensive.

Please look after this client for me.

No problem, sir.

Bye.

Okay. Thanks.

Just go to community college.

- Mom... private university is...

- You didn't study hard,

no time to be ashamed now.

I will take care of myself then.

I have the money. I don't need yours.

Dad, what are we going to do about Top?

Let him go to community college.

Community college? That's even worse.

He might not graduate.

If he worked hard,

I wouldn't mind the cost.

You should understand how our son is.

You always baby him like

this. No wonder he's a brat.

I won't allow it. He will

go to a private university.

Do you realize how

bad the economy is now?

But his education is really important!

That's enough.

Your account was deleted,

Due to your commercial

use outside the Game.

Damn it. You can't ban me now!

Hey, what's up?

Do you still have those 300 Baht DVD

players? I want to buy a lot of them.

Don't try to play me. 800

Baht is my wholesale price.

Last time you were going to

sell the PS2 for 24,500, right?

But I paid 25,000 with free DVD player.

That means you still profit at 500 Baht.

So the cost price must

be lower than 500 Baht.

Man, business is in your blood.

So how much is a lot exactly?

I thought you were going

to buy 1,000 of them.

Alright I will sell it to you

for 500, take it or leave it.

Oh so you are opening

a DVD player factory.

Not quite. This is just

the beginning of my story.

What? Just the beginning?

Going to take long?

Please pay close attention.

Are you finished?

Didn't even hit send yet.

I'm listening but make it short.

Okay.

My mom yelled at me for that.

Why didn't you spend

the money on school?

Clear image, with remote control.

And you will enjoy it even more

while watching your favorite film.

Sh*t!

I almost got kick out of the house,

when the DVD player broke.

Everybody knows generic

goods last all but a few days.

They are broken. Give me new ones.

No exchanges. They have no warranty.

Why not!?

you call disposable DVDs.

Why didn't you tell me before?

Only stupid people don't know this.

I could sue you, you know that!

Go cry to your parents.

Here take it!

Sh*t!

This won't even cover half

the money you cheated me.

Dad, I'm going home, you need a ride?

Selling really

isn't as fun as playing online games.

I could have sold all of

them if I wasn't conned.

Welcome to the real world.

When you lose, you can lose everything.

Even adults can barely survive.

Kids are no exception to this reality.

I'm paying you to study.

Anywhere you want.

I am not one of your employees, dad.

Today we will learn about

the idea behind Generation...

That was it. I went back to study.

You said your dad paid you to

study, but you didn't take it.

So how did you get the

money to study then?

Did you really go to class?
