To keep it crispy we put nitrogen in and

now we've extended the shelf-life.

Yes ma'am.

You see. And that's it.

So that means I have to

buy this machine, correct?

Yes, correct.

Now it is up to you to find

a way to make it delicious.

That is all you got for everything?

Each box costs 10,000 Baht.

Ew, how come it's so bitter?

Maybe it's burnt?

That's good enough.

It's greasy,

maybe it absorbed too much oil?

Uncle, dinner time.

What to do Top?

This won't be enough.

If not enough, I can get more.

Maybe another 5-6 more boxes.

Top,

I don't want to do this anymore.

I wasted 100,000 Baht of seaweed.

I don't want to waste any more money.

Because you've wasted 100,000 Baht

you can't give up now.

Please don't make me waste anymore.

Waste even more uncle.

A lot more even.

I believe

you can earn it all back.

Hello.

Hello, are you here yet?

Where?

Hey it's registration day!

Wait for me Lin.

You forgot everything already, huh.

Uncle. Let's fry more seaweeds.

It's all or nothing.

Uncle!

How are you doing?

I'm okay.

I should be able to

go home in a few days.

So you can eat anything now, right?

Yeah. I already ate the

congee that the nurse gave me.

So you want me to taste

your seaweed, right?

That's right uncle.

It's my karma.

Please have a taste.

It's that delicious?

No. My tongue can't feel it yet.

What about now?

How did you do it?

- Any discount?

- Sorry, no.

It's very difficult for the

divers to get the seaweeds.

Had too fight off sharks

and giant octopus too.

You are very funny.

Witty Salesman.

Sales is fun when you sell.

- One of this.

- Okay.

Just a moment please. 2 bags.

Thank you.

It's guaranteed to be delicious.

- I'm sure you'll be back for more.

- This is your son?

No, he's my nephew.

Just 1 for me.

OK. Moment please.

I'll get you your change.

- No bag please.

- No bags, help reduce global warming.

Doable.

Mom

Hello?

Top, how are you?

Okay mom.

How's school?

There's no class today. I can talk.

I just want to call to

wish you a happy birthday.

Right, it's my birthday.

You are that forgetful now?

Happy Birthday again.

Pay attention to your studies.

You win some, you lose some.

The most important thing is

don't forget to take care of yourself.

Thank you mom.

Wait. Your dad wants to talk to you.

Hello?

Hello dad.

Top

listen to me.

You study hard this semester.

Next semester you can transfer here.

I've already checked

out a university for you.

And the plane tickets,

I will send you.

Dad,

tell me the truth about the debt?

Be straight with me.

How much?

Have you ever felt that you're

just a speck in the universe?

Foreclosed. Property of Bank

If you think you will be rich,

then you will be rich.

If you think you will succeed,

you will be successful.

By thinking this way

you don't limit yourself.

This is even more powerful

than thinking out of the box.

Being that everybody has

different dimensions for their box.

Today, urban forest strategy is...

about how to create the relationship

between our business

partners in the provinces

We've used this strategy

with many products.

- Would you like dumplings or a bun

with that? - One cheese bite please.

- All out. Anything else?

- Never mind then.

One cheese bite please.

If you think you will be

rich, then you will be rich.

- If you think you will

succeed, you will be successful...

- I've been thinking for

years. Damn it, not true at all.

Thank you.

Urban forest strategy is...

about how to create the relationship

between our business

partners in the provinces.

We've used this strategy

with many products.

We won't get a chance

to hear this again.

We pay attention to our

customers in the provinces

Best friends... near you.

Regarding the communications

and transportation.

But how to implement the Urban

Forest Strategy the right way

All over the country.

Hello. I would like to sell my

product in 7-Eleven. What do I do?

I would like to sell my product

in 7-Eleven. What do I do?

Magnum banana sticky rice

is the product of a perfect blending of

western and eastern tastes.

Think of it simply as

a Thai-fusion snack.

Easy to eat. Try again.

Our Magnum banana

is the product of

a perfect blending of

western and eastern tastes.

Easy to eat and not messy.

It's a Thai-fusion snack.

I'd like to sell using the Urban

forest strategy that 7 Eleven uses now.

Being that 7 Eleven has

branches all over the country

lots of people will see my product.

The strategy that 7 Eleven uses

suits my product well.

And if we work together

I believe we will have

a long future together.

I believe a long future

together for sure.

All done. Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Excuse me, didn't you

come with your father?

No, he isn't my father.

I have an appointment

with Ms. Pu at 9 am.

But no one called me yet.

Did you give your name

to the front desk yet?

Was I supposed to do that?

Yes, or else how could

I know you arrived?

My name is Ittipat.

Let me check. Wait please.

Ms. Pu is in the meeting.

Would you like to leave a note?

That's OK. It's my fault.

I rather wait here.

Hello. CP company.

From who?

Please hold the line.

Hello

Hello. CP company.

May I help you?

Ms. Pu, this is Mr. Ittipat.

He sent his assistant here?

No ma'am. This is Mr. Ittipat.

Hi Mr. Ittipat. I am Pu.

Hello.

Hi.

I'll have a meeting at 5:10 pm. So

please leave your product with me

and I will take a look later.

Then may I have 10 minutes?

I'd like to present the product myself.

OK go ahead.

So let me tell you about my product.

- It's fried seaweed.

- Mr. Ittipat, can I see your product?

Yes.

Here it is.

I'd like to try out the Urban forest

strategy that 7- Eleven uses now

Being that 7 Eleven has

branches all over the country

lots of people will see my product.

- I believe that this selling tactic...

- Your product isn't ready.

Why not?

The package design won't cut it.

The size is too big for our shelves.

What is your retail price?

Not expensive. Only 80 baht.

That's expensive for us.

We are a convenient store.

I am sorry.

- But Ms. Pu

- Yes?

Don't you want to try some first?

It's OK. It would be a waste.

Okay we're done here.

Actually, the Urban

Forest Strategy says

you should start from upcountry first

and then work your way into a big city.

I think you misunderstood the strategy.

Top.

Why don't you tell me what's going on?

I'm breaking my promise.

I won't take entrance exam anymore.

Taking it or not why

don't you talk to me?

Why did you turn off your mobile?

If I told you I quit school,

what would you do?

I know you want to help your parents

and you can by graduating.

Because you don't think I can do it.

That's why you want

me to return to school.

I just don't want you to

struggle and risk everything.

If you really believed in me

you wouldn't talk that way.

If it's about money,

I can ask my parents for help.

I'm not that bad yet.
