Kim Dotcom: Caught in the Web Page #2

---

to really turn everything

about his personal life

into a promotion for

his professional life.

[speaking in German]

[audience laughing and clapping]

He has this weird appearance

of the big guy

with this black suit,

and then, he is just nice,

nice like a nice bear

to cuddle with.

He wrote me

an email and asked me,

"Well, I see you like

motor-sports."

Why don't you come? We're

having a weekend in Monaco,

Formula One race weekend.

Why don't you come?

I invite you

and your girlfriend,

"and let's have a party,

and I can meet you."

He likes the music

we do with the band,

and me as a character,

and I said, "That's interesting,"

and he got me there.

[car engine running]

Yeah, pump

Pump, pump a little

Pump, pump

Pump, pump a little

[man speaking German]

Pump, pump Pump a little

Pump, pump Pump a little

[singing in a foreign language]

[continue speaking German]

[Michael] He uses all

these status symbols,

cars, girls and being together

with celebrities like myself,

but he is not. He himself

doesn't really act like that.

Everybody is having champagne.

"Hey, have champagne,"

and all the girls,

but there is no girl on his lap,

and he doesn't drink alcohol.

And he probably feels that

it makes himself likable

when he's in this picture 'cause people

like girls and champagne and stars.

[speaking German]

[man speaking German]

[Dotcom] I was

a complicated child.

My mum and I

went through hard times

with my father,

who was an alcoholic.

This guy broke my mother's bones

and hit me many times

and was just evil

when he was drinking.

He's the reason why

I've never drank any alcohol

'cause I saw firsthand

what that stuff can do to you.

[ship horn blowing]

[fishing cord whirring]

[Dotcom] After the divorce, my

mum, even though times were tough,

she tried to find ways

to get me my first computer.

Once I had my computer,

for me, school was

a waste of time.

I wanna learn about computers.

I wanna learn about the future.

[Fisher] LetsBuylt.com is

an online marketplace,

very early version of

Amazon, if you will.

Dotcom had talked of his plans

to invest a large amount

of money into LetsBuylt.

When he said

he was going to do that,

the share price took off.

It was ramped massively,

and then he sold his shares.

[indistinct voice over PA]

[Dotcom] I was in Thailand

because I was on a holiday...

[camera shutter clicks]

And it didn't take long

for some people

that didn't like my attitude,

my lifestyle,

to make allegations that

there's something fishy here,

and then the government started an

investigation around insider trading.
