Carl Erik Rinsch, the director of Netflix's sci-fi series "Conquest," allegedly utilized $4 million from the show's budget to invest in Dogecoin (DOGE), resulting in an astonishing profit of $27 million. As reported by The New York Times, Rinsch is now seeking an additional $14 million from Netflix through a confidential arbitration proceeding.

Netflix 科幻影集《征服》的導演卡爾·艾瑞克·林施(Carl Erik Rinsch) 據稱利用該劇預算中的400 萬美元投資狗狗幣(DOGE)，從而獲得了2700 萬美元的驚人利潤。根據《紐約時報》報道，Rinsch 目前正透過保密仲裁程序向 Netflix 尋求額外 1,400 萬美元的賠償。

The article sheds light on the behind-the-scenes turmoil surrounding Rinsch's show, which was allocated a budget of $55 million by Netflix but has yet to release its first episode. After initially receiving a budget of $44 million from Netflix in March 2020, Rinsch requested further funds. Netflix agreed to provide an additional $11 million under the condition that Rinsch completed the series.

這篇文章揭示了圍繞 Rinsch 的節目的幕後混亂，Netflix 為該節目分配了 5500 萬美元的預算，但尚未發布第一集。在 2020 年 3 月最初收到 Netflix 4,400 萬美元的預算後，Rinsch 要求更多資金。 Netflix 同意額外提供 1100 萬美元，條件是林什完成該劇。

However, financial records obtained by the NY Times reveal that Rinsch used $10.5 million of the additional funds to engage in stock market speculation. Unfortunately, his options bets on pharmaceutical companies and the S&P 500 resulted in losses of nearly $6 million. With a little over $4 million remaining, Rinsch transferred the remaining funds to the cryptocurrency exchange Kraken and placed a full bet on Dogecoin. In May 2021, he reportedly withdrew around $27 million after liquidating his Dogecoin holdings.

然而，《紐約時報》獲得的財務記錄顯示，林奇利用額外資金中的 1,050 萬美元從事股市投機活動。不幸的是，他對製藥公司和標準普爾 500 指數的選擇權押注導致了近 600 萬美元的損失。在剩下略多於 400 萬美元的情況下，Rinsch 將剩餘資金轉移到加密貨幣交易所 Kraken，並將全部賭注押在狗狗幣上。據報道，2021 年 5 月，他在清算所持有的狗狗幣後提取了約 2,700 萬美元。

Rinsch allegedly spent a substantial portion of his profits, approximately $9 million, on extravagant purchases such as luxury furniture, designer clothing, a watch worth over $380,000, five Rolls-Royces, and a Ferrari. These details emerged from a forensic accountant hired by Rinsch's ex-wife for their divorce proceedings.

據稱，Rinsch 將其利潤的很大一部分（約 900 萬美元）用於奢侈購買，例如豪華家具、名牌服裝、價值超過 38 萬美元的手錶、五輛勞斯萊斯和一輛法拉利。這些細節來自林什前妻為離婚訴訟聘請的法務會計師。

In response to these developments, Rinsch initiated a confidential arbitration proceeding against Netflix, asserting that the streaming service breached their contract and owes him $14 million in damages. Netflix, on the other hand, denies any obligations and has characterized Rinsch's demands as an attempt to extort money.

針對這些事態發展，Rinsch 對 Netflix 提起了保密仲裁程序，聲稱該串流媒體服務違反了合約並欠他 1400 萬美元的賠償金。另一方面，Netflix 否認承擔任何義務，並將林什的要求定性為勒索金錢的企圖。
