Every Lunar New Year, Chinese people all over the world engage in a time honored tradition where money is gifted in little red envelopes. While this tradition is practiced with many variations, generally family elders gift these red pockets to the young, who return the favor once they are grown and married.

But what happens when the game is taken to another level? One child is determined to find out in this Nike spot. Agency: Wieden Kennedy, Shanghai.
