Stop! Miss!

Get back here!

Stop!
10
00:01:09,269 --> 00:01:10,270
Sorry.
11
00:01:10,336 --> 00:01:11,504
Ah! Sorry.
12
00:01:13,173 --> 00:01:14,107
Stop!

00:01:27,053 --> 00:01:27,754

15
00:01:52,579 --> 00:01:53,980
Wake up, Jiro.
16
00:01:57,484 --> 00:01:58,551
I'm sorry.
17
00:01:58,618 --> 00:01:59,719
I got caught.
18
00:02:00,420 --> 00:02:01,488
You got found out?
19
00:02:01,988 --> 00:02:03,556
What're you doing?
20
00:02:03,623 --> 00:02:06,726
{\an8}What are you doing pushing
your attendance card on her?
21
00:02:06,793 --> 00:02:09,863
{\an8}She begged me,
saying how she wanted to attend for me.
22
00:02:09,929 --> 00:02:11,264
Right, Ms. Crasher?
23
00:02:12,365 --> 00:02:13,533
Crasher?
24
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:14,734
What's he mean?
25
00:02:15,235 --> 00:02:16,603
You're not a student?
26
00:02:17,337 --> 00:02:18,171
No.
27
00:02:18,872 --> 00:02:21,374
I've been sneaking in to learn.
28
00:02:22,242 --> 00:02:24,911
I'm a high school grad
with a part-time job.
29
00:02:27,313 --> 00:02:28,581
I'm Sana Narukawa.
30
00:02:31,151 --> 00:02:33,153
I'm Ko Suzaki.
31
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,288
That explains the running.
32
00:02:35,355 --> 00:02:38,858
If they take my credits away,
it'll be your fault, Ms. Crasher!
33
00:02:38,925 --> 00:02:42,228
I got caught because you drew
the professor's attention.
34
00:02:42,295 --> 00:02:44,697
It'll be your fault if they ban me!
35
00:02:46,499 --> 00:02:49,669
-Stop complaining, Crasher!
-Shut up, Slacker!
36
00:02:49,736 --> 00:02:51,371
Both of you calm down.
37
00:02:53,306 --> 00:02:54,440
How'd this happen?
38
00:02:56,342 --> 00:02:57,710
I mean, I wanted to be
39
00:02:58,444 --> 00:03:00,513
a normal college student too.
40
00:03:02,148 --> 00:03:02,982
But...
41
00:03:04,717 --> 00:03:06,519
CRAM SCHOOL
42
00:03:07,820 --> 00:03:09,155
I couldn't.
43
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,497
Raised by a single mom,
we didn't have any money.
44
00:03:27,173 --> 00:03:28,374
Here you go.
45
00:03:29,842 --> 00:03:31,211
Thank you.
46
00:03:32,212 --> 00:03:34,681
The person I was always with
47
00:03:34,747 --> 00:03:37,383
wasn't a friend or boyfriend,
48
00:03:37,450 --> 00:03:38,785
it was my young sister.
49
00:03:41,521 --> 00:03:43,022
I went to Sky Tree.
50
00:03:44,757 --> 00:03:46,292
Red, blue?
51
00:03:47,060 --> 00:03:48,861
-Want to match?
-Yes!
52
00:03:48,928 --> 00:03:50,863
Man, I'm jealous!
53
00:03:53,333 --> 00:03:55,602
Unable to keep up with my peers,
54
00:03:56,603 --> 00:03:58,838
I started visiting the library a lot.
55
00:04:04,844 --> 00:04:05,878
Then one day...
56
00:04:16,122 --> 00:04:17,824
UNICORN CEO, SACHI HANEDA
57
00:04:24,364 --> 00:04:25,999
SACHI HANEDA
58
00:04:26,065 --> 00:04:28,234
FROM 800 YEN AN HOUR SHOP CLERK
TO CEO OF A BILLION DOLLAR BUSINESS!
59
00:04:31,804 --> 00:04:35,074
YOU CAN MAKE UP ANY DIFFERENCE
WITH THE POWER OF IT.
60
00:04:37,610 --> 00:04:39,012
I saw the light.
61
00:04:42,248 --> 00:04:44,217
{\an8}WEAR LAB CEO, SACHI HANEDA
62
00:04:46,352 --> 00:04:48,154
I'm so sorry.
63
00:04:53,793 --> 00:04:59,932
There are many inequalities in the world
including knowledge, economic, and health.
64
00:05:00,566 --> 00:05:04,270
I'd like to change that with one of these.
65
00:05:04,337 --> 00:05:07,206
It gives me my entrepreneurial spirit.
66
00:05:10,677 --> 00:05:11,711
May I ask a question?
67
00:05:12,512 --> 00:05:13,346
Go ahead.
68
00:05:16,983 --> 00:05:19,619
Can a financially struggling
high school graduate
69
00:05:20,620 --> 00:05:22,021
become an entrepreneur?
70
00:05:22,088 --> 00:05:24,357
-High school grad?
-Seriously?
71
00:05:24,424 --> 00:05:25,825
High school grad?
72
00:05:27,627 --> 00:05:30,797
Much easier than working
at a major corporation.
73
00:05:33,533 --> 00:05:34,834
Is that your dream?
74
00:05:36,436 --> 00:05:37,337
Yes.
75
00:05:38,638 --> 00:05:43,242
My dream is to create a place
where everyone can learn equally.
76
00:05:45,144 --> 00:05:46,779
What a wonderful dream.
77
00:05:49,382 --> 00:05:50,650
Thank you.
78
00:05:56,823 --> 00:05:59,992
I believe there are many people like me
79
00:06:00,059 --> 00:06:02,695
unable to receive satisfactory education
80
00:06:02,762 --> 00:06:06,199
due to family situations
or social anxieties.
81
00:06:06,833 --> 00:06:10,603
I want to use tech to rid such
educational discrepancies.
82
00:06:10,670 --> 00:06:14,040
{\an8}That is what led me to found Dream Pony.
83
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,477
{\an8}From being too poor to attend college,
84
00:06:17,543 --> 00:06:21,681
{\an8}to becoming a young, female executive
of a startup company.
85
00:06:22,348 --> 00:06:24,884
You are a modern success story.
86
00:06:25,752 --> 00:06:27,186
I'm not that special.
87
00:06:27,253 --> 00:06:29,021
{\an8}A LOOK AT OUR NEXT LEADERS.
88
00:06:29,088 --> 00:06:30,723
There goes Sana again.
89
00:06:31,391 --> 00:06:34,560
How many times have we heard
her rags to riches story?
90
00:06:35,294 --> 00:06:36,629
Just ignore it.
91
00:06:37,330 --> 00:06:38,464
Back to work.
92
00:06:38,531 --> 00:06:42,201
What kind of app is Dream Pony?
93
00:06:42,268 --> 00:06:47,573
Dream Pony's goal is to use tech to create
a place where everyone can learn equally.
94
00:06:48,107 --> 00:06:51,344
{\an8}An app anyone can use to learn for free.
95
00:06:51,411 --> 00:06:56,916
{\an8}We conduct an EdTech business
using Study Pony as a foundation.
96
00:06:56,983 --> 00:07:02,321
The study app where users learn alongside
self-made avatars became a hit sensation.
97
00:07:02,989 --> 00:07:04,557
What about the future?
98
00:07:06,926 --> 00:07:07,960
Well...
99
00:07:09,562 --> 00:07:10,563
It's in discussion.
100
00:07:11,063 --> 00:07:15,935
We'd like to continually expand
our business and become a unicorn.
101
00:07:16,702 --> 00:07:18,571
Just like Uber and Mercari,
102
00:07:18,638 --> 00:07:23,543
I'd like to grow into a billion dollar
company in our first ten years.
103
00:07:24,444 --> 00:07:25,945
I say always dream big!
104
00:07:30,416 --> 00:07:32,285
I'm exhausted.
105
00:07:32,852 --> 00:07:34,987
Good work today, Poor Girl.
106
00:07:35,988 --> 00:07:37,590
Shut up, Rich Kid.
107
00:07:37,657 --> 00:07:41,427
It's not my fault the media responds
to stories like that.
108
00:07:41,494 --> 00:07:42,562
I know that.
109
00:07:43,396 --> 00:07:45,064
Thank you, CEO.
110
00:07:45,131 --> 00:07:46,466
Thanks for the coffee.
111
00:07:46,532 --> 00:07:48,401
How's the bug fixing going?
112
00:07:48,468 --> 00:07:50,203
Jiro and Meg are on it.
113
00:07:52,472 --> 00:07:54,774
-Alright, how's that?
-Okay.
114
00:07:54,841 --> 00:07:55,808
CONGRATULATIONS
115
00:07:55,875 --> 00:07:57,777
CONGRATULATIONS
GET COINS AND BUY ITEMS
116
00:07:57,844 --> 00:07:58,444
ERROR
117
00:07:58,511 --> 00:07:59,712
CONNECTION ERROR.
PLEASE WAIT AND TRY AGAIN.
118
00:08:01,214 --> 00:08:04,250
It crashed again, what the f***!
119
00:08:04,317 --> 00:08:06,886
Damn it, there's still an error somewhere.
120
00:08:06,953 --> 00:08:10,423
-Get it together, Jiro, or I'll kill you.
-You wanna fight?
121
00:08:10,490 --> 00:08:12,658
-Let's go then.
-Which error code?
122
00:08:13,159 --> 00:08:14,293
Haven't checked yet.
123
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:15,561
Let's check.
124
00:08:15,628 --> 00:08:16,929
Or she'll kill me.
125
00:08:16,996 --> 00:08:17,930
Yeah.
126
00:08:17,997 --> 00:08:20,633
STUDY PONY USER NUMBERS
127
00:08:27,807 --> 00:08:29,442
{\an8}TAKASHI SHIROGANE
GOLD CAPITAL
128
00:08:32,445 --> 00:08:33,646
This is Narukawa.

{\an8}DREAM PONY
130
00:08:46,959 --> 00:08:49,896
You know why we called you here today,
don't you?
131
00:08:54,901 --> 00:08:57,803
Is it our declining user numbers?
132
00:08:57,870 --> 00:09:02,308
They say 95% of startups fold
within three years.
133
00:09:02,808 --> 00:09:07,747
If this decline continues, your company
will be gone in six months.
134
00:09:09,982 --> 00:09:11,884
Shirogane, this is your account.
135
00:09:12,418 --> 00:09:13,319
What do you think?
136
00:09:14,954 --> 00:09:18,190
I won't let Dream Pony die!
137
00:09:18,958 --> 00:09:22,061
Therefore, I was giving them
my full support, but...
138
00:09:22,562 --> 00:09:25,531
As long as we're invested
in this business,
139
00:09:25,598 --> 00:09:28,734
we need you to be more engaged.
140
00:09:29,335 --> 00:09:31,637
Your growth rate is too slow.
141
00:09:32,405 --> 00:09:37,310
You may be Dream Pony, but we need
you running at cheetah speeds.
142
00:09:39,579 --> 00:09:41,581
That's a good one, sir!
143
00:09:46,852 --> 00:09:47,720
Okay.
144
00:09:47,787 --> 00:09:52,191
Listen,
you need to think more like a business.
145
00:09:53,259 --> 00:09:54,460
A business?
146
00:09:54,527 --> 00:09:57,029
It's fine being young and dedicated,
147
00:09:57,096 --> 00:10:00,066
but this isn't some
after school club with friends.
148
00:10:02,401 --> 00:10:04,670
You need to take this seriously.
149
00:10:10,610 --> 00:10:12,378
Yes, he's right.
150
00:10:12,445 --> 00:10:14,614
But he didn't have to say it like that.
151
00:10:15,948 --> 00:10:18,684
-This should work!
-Good work, Ko!
152
00:10:18,751 --> 00:10:21,187
Genius! Long legged! We love you!
153
00:10:21,253 --> 00:10:22,622
Get off me!
154
00:10:22,688 --> 00:10:24,690
We're the best team!
155
00:10:24,757 --> 00:10:26,792
-The best!
-The best!
156
00:10:26,859 --> 00:10:28,628
-The best! Say it!
-The best!
157
00:10:28,694 --> 00:10:29,762
-Say it!
-Say it!
158
00:10:29,829 --> 00:10:30,997
Sana. Welcome back.
159
00:10:31,564 --> 00:10:32,531
Welcome back!
160
00:10:33,199 --> 00:10:34,033
Thanks.
161
00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:35,801
{\an8}What did Shirogane say?
162
00:10:37,870 --> 00:10:42,608
He advised that we should start thinking
of a new service for the next stage.
163
00:10:42,675 --> 00:10:45,077
Makes sense.
Our new user numbers are down after all.
164
00:10:45,144 --> 00:10:46,879
It'll be bad if we don't.
165
00:10:47,513 --> 00:10:49,582
Come on, let's do this!
166
00:10:51,717 --> 00:10:53,152
We really are the best.
167
00:10:53,819 --> 00:10:56,455
-The best.
-Totally the best.
168
00:10:56,522 --> 00:10:58,224
Ko's the best. He's so smart.
169
00:10:58,290 --> 00:11:00,493
Jiro's the best and so handsome.
170
00:11:04,196 --> 00:11:05,464
What am I going to do?
171
00:11:10,936 --> 00:11:11,971
Ko!
172
00:11:16,342 --> 00:11:17,410
You were lying.
173
00:11:27,420 --> 00:11:29,755
He said our company will go under.
174
00:11:31,691 --> 00:11:35,561
So we need to increase our growth rate.
175
00:11:37,396 --> 00:11:40,066
But we need more people to do that.
176
00:11:41,801 --> 00:11:45,204
But we don't have that luxury
with our recent performance.
177
00:11:46,806 --> 00:11:49,608
We haven't even come up with
a new service.
178
00:11:51,544 --> 00:11:53,713
Where do I even start?
179
00:11:58,184 --> 00:12:01,687
Oh! Sorry, it's my job to think of that,
right?
180
00:12:02,388 --> 00:12:03,756
Ignore me.
181
00:12:03,823 --> 00:12:04,824
Let's
182
00:12:07,660 --> 00:12:08,694
hire someone new.
183
00:12:10,062 --> 00:12:10,730
What?
184
00:12:10,796 --> 00:12:12,832
I've been thinking this for a while now.
185
00:12:13,933 --> 00:12:18,237
Our ideas that were new three years ago
aren't really fresh anymore.
186
00:12:19,572 --> 00:12:24,844
I think all we can do now is bring in
new blood to help shake things up.
187
00:12:28,981 --> 00:12:31,884
Stop looking so glum, Poor Girl.
188
00:12:34,286 --> 00:12:35,121
It'll be okay.
189
00:12:39,158 --> 00:12:40,059
You're right.
190
00:12:40,793 --> 00:12:45,064
Let's find some new help
to propel us forward.
191
00:12:46,198 --> 00:12:47,133
Okay!
192
00:12:47,199 --> 00:12:48,300
It's decided.
193
00:12:59,678 --> 00:13:01,080
What do you think?
194
00:13:01,147 --> 00:13:02,281
Looks good.
195
00:13:04,517 --> 00:13:05,885
Okay. Let's do it.
196
00:13:08,821 --> 00:13:09,655
SHARE
197
00:13:13,025 --> 00:13:16,162
Would you like to change
the future of learning with us?
198
00:13:18,964 --> 00:13:21,066
-You see Instagram?
-You mean Dream Pony?
199
00:13:21,133 --> 00:13:22,301
I saw it.
200
00:13:22,368 --> 00:13:23,369
They're recruiting.
201
00:13:23,435 --> 00:13:26,705
-Aren't they all still young?
-They're third years I think.
202
00:13:26,772 --> 00:13:27,740
That's right.
203
00:13:27,807 --> 00:13:30,709
-Sana Narukawa, right?
-What'd they do again?
204
00:13:30,776 --> 00:13:32,144
Education, I think.
205
00:13:32,211 --> 00:13:34,013
-Oh, EdTech.
-Right.
206
00:13:55,634 --> 00:13:57,636
Black head, white cheeks.
207
00:13:57,703 --> 00:13:59,371
Necktie pattern on the chest.
208
00:13:59,438 --> 00:14:00,439
It's a Japanese tit.
209
00:14:07,546 --> 00:14:08,681
Hey!
210
00:14:08,747 --> 00:14:09,715
Hold up!
211
00:14:10,382 --> 00:14:11,283
Hey!
212
00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:13,886
Is now really the time for bird watching?
213
00:14:16,622 --> 00:14:19,458
How could you quit your job at your age?
214
00:14:23,162 --> 00:14:24,897
DEPOSIT/WITHDRAWAL
215
00:14:27,533 --> 00:14:28,601
{\an8}Here you go.
216
00:14:28,667 --> 00:14:30,669
{\an8}BRANCH MANAGER KOTORI
217
00:14:33,839 --> 00:14:34,840
Kotori!
218
00:14:34,907 --> 00:14:37,076
I'm off to the Nagisa Shop.
219
00:14:37,142 --> 00:14:38,344
The Nagisa Shop?
220
00:14:38,844 --> 00:14:39,945
How's Mr. Tsuruta?
221
00:14:40,012 --> 00:14:40,946
Give him my best.
222
00:14:41,013 --> 00:14:42,147
Yes, sir. I'm off.
223
00:14:44,383 --> 00:14:46,619
-I'm off!
-Take care.
224
00:14:46,685 --> 00:14:49,588
Your man Ito made a mistake.
225
00:14:50,189 --> 00:14:53,058
I'm transferring him away to a subsidiary.
226
00:14:53,726 --> 00:14:55,561
Huh? Please wait, sir.
227
00:14:55,628 --> 00:15:01,433
The leaked transaction records
was caused by the client's system failure.
228
00:15:02,301 --> 00:15:04,169
Someone has to take responsibility.
229
00:15:05,137 --> 00:15:09,241
Once this settles down,
you'll be promoted to director.
230
00:15:09,308 --> 00:15:12,044
This all worked out for you in the end.
231
00:15:13,579 --> 00:15:14,914
Worked out for me?
232
00:15:16,916 --> 00:15:18,784
So why did you end up quitting?
233
00:15:20,619 --> 00:15:23,355
Trying to act cool protecting
your employee.
234
00:15:24,556 --> 00:15:25,591
It's not like that.
235
00:15:28,193 --> 00:15:29,061
I just
236
00:15:29,728 --> 00:15:31,864
found another dream to pursue.
237
00:15:32,498 --> 00:15:33,966
What's that?
238
00:15:35,501 --> 00:15:39,171
Our biggest dream is stability.
239
00:15:41,807 --> 00:15:42,641
A kingfisher!
240
00:15:43,142 --> 00:15:44,109
A female!
241
00:15:44,176 --> 00:15:45,544
Wait, maybe a male?

00:16:01,260 --> 00:16:03,062
RECWIZ JOB MATCHING SERVICE

{\an8}A FEW DAYS LATER
254
00:16:40,599 --> 00:16:42,134
{\an8}Interview day is here.
255
00:16:42,201 --> 00:16:47,239
-My glasses are foggy, I'm so nervous.
-What are you nervous for?
256
00:16:47,306 --> 00:16:48,874
You're like a creepy nerd.
257
00:16:49,375 --> 00:16:50,409
Sana.
258
00:16:50,476 --> 00:16:56,415
Let's hire someone cute,
kind, and angelic.
259
00:16:57,583 --> 00:16:58,884
Like me?
260
00:17:02,221 --> 00:17:03,722
We have three criteria.
261
00:17:04,356 --> 00:17:06,258
Criteria one, someone self-driven.
262
00:17:06,325 --> 00:17:07,593
Let's go group one.
263
00:17:07,659 --> 00:17:10,095
I was the leader of my college club.
264
00:17:10,162 --> 00:17:12,698
We don't have the luxury
of training someone.
265
00:17:12,765 --> 00:17:16,635
We'll prioritize someone who can work
on their own to help the company.
266
00:17:16,702 --> 00:17:17,736
I'm confident.
267
00:17:20,105 --> 00:17:22,875
1. SELF-DRIVEN
268
00:17:22,941 --> 00:17:25,411
Any recent events in your life?
269
00:17:26,178 --> 00:17:27,646
There's something called...
270
00:17:27,713 --> 00:17:29,615
Two, is newness.
271
00:17:29,681 --> 00:17:32,351
The IT world fluctuates drastically,
272
00:17:32,418 --> 00:17:35,120
we want to hire someone
who can adjust quickly.
273
00:17:35,187 --> 00:17:36,355
I felt the potential.
274
00:17:39,925 --> 00:17:41,593
Three is openness.
275
00:17:41,660 --> 00:17:44,096
An open mind can absorb a lot.
276
00:17:44,163 --> 00:17:45,764
What are your weaknesses?
277
00:17:45,831 --> 00:17:48,901
Maybe my weakness is not being
able to think of one.
278
00:17:52,771 --> 00:17:54,673
OPENNESS
279
00:18:04,950 --> 00:18:05,884
{\an8}INTERVIEW AREA
280
00:18:34,379 --> 00:18:35,247
Excuse me.
281
00:18:37,282 --> 00:18:40,052
Are you here for the Dream Pony interview?
282
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:40,953
Yes.
283
00:18:41,553 --> 00:18:42,454
Me too.
284
00:18:43,922 --> 00:18:44,990
Really?
285
00:18:45,057 --> 00:18:45,891
Oh!
286
00:18:46,425 --> 00:18:47,259
Same group!
287
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:49,061
Good luck.
288
00:18:50,896 --> 00:18:51,864
Let's sit.
289
00:18:53,699 --> 00:18:56,969
Can't find anyone who meet
all three criteria.
290
00:18:59,905 --> 00:19:01,173
Ready for the last group?
291
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:02,441
Yeah, send them in.
292
00:19:16,688 --> 00:19:17,589
Excuse me.
293
00:19:18,123 --> 00:19:20,025
Thank you for having me.
294
00:19:32,471 --> 00:19:33,305
Time out.
295
00:19:34,006 --> 00:19:34,840
Time out.
296
00:19:38,744 --> 00:19:40,546
Why is that middle aged man here?
297
00:19:43,615 --> 00:19:44,917
SATOSHI KOTORI
298
00:19:45,851 --> 00:19:47,219
He's a former bank manager.
299
00:19:47,286 --> 00:19:48,520
TACHIKAWA BRANCH MANAGER
300
00:19:48,587 --> 00:19:50,022
Is it famous?
301
00:19:50,088 --> 00:19:51,023
No.
302
00:19:52,324 --> 00:19:54,059
Maybe they want to invest in us.
303
00:19:56,828 --> 00:19:57,963
Excuse me.
304
00:19:58,764 --> 00:20:01,233
I'm sorry, take a seat, Mr. Kojima.
305
00:20:01,733 --> 00:20:03,368
It's Kotori.
306
00:20:04,937 --> 00:20:05,771
What?
307
00:20:07,306 --> 00:20:10,375
Many misread it as Kojima,
but it's Kotori.
308
00:20:12,077 --> 00:20:13,912
I'm terribly sorry for my mistake.
309
00:20:13,979 --> 00:20:16,882
No, I'm sorry for having a strange name.
310
00:20:17,983 --> 00:20:18,850
Excuse me.
311
00:20:22,654 --> 00:20:25,057
Please start with a brief introduction.
312
00:20:25,924 --> 00:20:27,326
Mr. Kotori?
313
00:20:27,392 --> 00:20:28,393
Yes.
314
00:20:29,962 --> 00:20:33,365
Thank you for this opportunity.
315
00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:36,501
I am Satoshi Kotori.
316
00:20:37,569 --> 00:20:40,472
I studied education at
the Kunitachi College of Arts,
317
00:20:40,539 --> 00:20:43,442
and have worked at Inaho Bank
the last 26 years.
318
00:20:44,409 --> 00:20:47,946
I was made manager of
the Tachikawa branch not long ago,
319
00:20:48,547 --> 00:20:52,951
but unable to abandon my dream
of working in education,
320
00:20:53,018 --> 00:20:55,654
I'm here to take my first step
in a new chapter.
321
00:20:57,356 --> 00:20:59,725
I turned 48 last month,
322
00:20:59,791 --> 00:21:04,329
but the lack of age restriction on your
job ad gave me the courage to come.
323
00:21:05,430 --> 00:21:08,166
I'm excited to take on this new endeavor.
324
00:21:08,767 --> 00:21:10,669
Thank you for having me here today.
325
00:21:14,473 --> 00:21:15,974
Just a little time out.
326
00:21:19,978 --> 00:21:21,847
Looks like he's here for the job.
327
00:21:22,447 --> 00:21:25,284
Who put no age restrictions on our ad?
328
00:21:25,884 --> 00:21:29,354
It's not my fault,
that's how things are done now.
329
00:21:29,888 --> 00:21:30,889
Excuse me.
330
00:21:34,893 --> 00:21:36,495
Thank you, Mr. Kotori.
331
00:21:37,296 --> 00:21:38,964
-Please sit.
-Okay.
332
00:21:40,599 --> 00:21:44,036
Okay, you're next, Mr. Morimoto.
333
00:21:46,838 --> 00:21:49,675
I'm Kaito Morimoto,
and I'm a college sophomore.
334
00:21:49,741 --> 00:21:51,243
I'm majoring in logic
335
00:21:51,310 --> 00:21:55,380
while researching image algorithms as
well as block-chain technology.
336
00:21:55,447 --> 00:21:58,083
For fun, I developed
my own rendering system.
337
00:21:59,885 --> 00:22:01,086
Thank you.
338
00:22:01,653 --> 00:22:03,055
-Then next...
-I excel at math.
339
00:22:03,121 --> 00:22:05,557
I won the math Olympics in grade five.
340
00:22:05,624 --> 00:22:08,627
Although, I'm not so interested
in awards or records.
341
00:22:08,694 --> 00:22:12,597
I also won a robotics contest
in Singapore as a high school student.
342
00:22:12,664 --> 00:22:13,765
Next month, I will...
343
00:22:13,832 --> 00:22:15,233
That's enough, Mr. Morimoto.
344
00:22:15,300 --> 00:22:19,471
I can fulfill my college credits online,
so I can work full time here.
345
00:22:23,041 --> 00:22:24,209
You get all that?
346
00:22:24,276 --> 00:22:27,746
I got the gist
that he's pretty accomplished.
347
00:22:28,980 --> 00:22:30,682
Thank you, Mr. Morimoto.
348
00:22:31,283 --> 00:22:33,819
Let's proceed to the Q&A session.
349
00:22:34,386 --> 00:22:35,220
Mr. Kotori.
350
00:22:35,887 --> 00:22:39,858
You worked many years at the bank,
but were you involved with IT work?
351
00:22:40,425 --> 00:22:41,226
No, not at all.
352
00:22:42,594 --> 00:22:43,428
Not at all?
353
00:22:43,495 --> 00:22:44,329
No.
354
00:22:44,830 --> 00:22:48,734
My work primarily focused
on local businesses.
355
00:22:49,368 --> 00:22:51,903
Many still kept their books on paper.
356
00:22:53,238 --> 00:22:54,573
Any programming experience?
357
00:22:54,639 --> 00:22:56,341
Or language specialty?
358
00:22:56,408 --> 00:22:57,242
Language?
359
00:22:58,377 --> 00:23:01,146
I'm embarrassed to admit
I only know Japanese.
360
00:23:03,715 --> 00:23:06,284
But I've passed the tier one
Kanji Aptitude Test.
361
00:23:10,789 --> 00:23:14,893
I'm proficient in C, C++, C#, Python,
Rust, Go Swift, and Kotlin.
362
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:19,264
-Why do you start talking?
-Go is much simpler and efficient.
363
00:23:19,331 --> 00:23:21,500
Unity and Unreal Engine are popular.
364
00:23:21,566 --> 00:23:22,367
This is chaos.
365
00:23:22,434 --> 00:23:26,204
My rendering programming can easily
be integrated in existing...
366
00:23:26,271 --> 00:23:27,572
I think we're done here.
367
00:23:27,639 --> 00:23:28,807
Yeah.
368
00:23:28,874 --> 00:23:30,742
-Real-time rendering...
-Mr. Morimoto.
369
00:23:30,809 --> 00:23:31,943
That's enough.
370
00:23:33,078 --> 00:23:34,012
Okay.
371
00:23:35,547 --> 00:23:38,450
Lastly, please do a short self-promotion.
372
00:23:38,517 --> 00:23:39,651
Lastly?
373
00:23:39,718 --> 00:23:40,552
Already?
374
00:23:41,086 --> 00:23:44,055
-I didn't get a question.
-We already heard plenty.
375
00:23:44,856 --> 00:23:48,727
Give us a 30 second pitch of what
you can contribute to Dream Pony.
376
00:23:49,895 --> 00:23:50,762
Pitch?
377
00:23:51,797 --> 00:23:53,131
What is "pitch?"
378
00:23:54,266 --> 00:23:56,334
Like a short presentation.
379
00:23:56,401 --> 00:23:57,335
Oh! A presentation!
380
00:23:57,869 --> 00:23:58,870
Understood.
381
00:23:59,704 --> 00:24:01,773
He's open and earnest at least.
382
00:24:04,876 --> 00:24:07,245
Let's start with Mr. Kotori.
383
00:24:07,312 --> 00:24:08,146
Okay.
384
00:24:11,817 --> 00:24:15,854
I am a complete amateur in the IT field.
385
00:24:16,755 --> 00:24:19,157
However, your founding principle,
386
00:24:19,758 --> 00:24:24,796
creating a place where
everyone can learn equally,
387
00:24:24,863 --> 00:24:27,466
deeply moved me, bringing me here.
388
00:24:30,435 --> 00:24:32,404
In regards to what I can contribute,
389
00:24:32,971 --> 00:24:38,076
perhaps I only have my 26 years of
experience in society to offer.
390
00:24:38,877 --> 00:24:41,746
However, I truly wish to change
the future of education
391
00:24:42,314 --> 00:24:46,685
with all the young people who work here.
392
00:24:49,354 --> 00:24:50,188
I'm honored
393
00:24:51,122 --> 00:24:52,557
just to be considered.
394
00:25:02,634 --> 00:25:03,468
Um,
395
00:25:04,503 --> 00:25:06,705
did I say something strange?
396
00:25:07,973 --> 00:25:09,140
Not at all.
397
00:25:10,609 --> 00:25:12,911
Thank you for your passionate pitch.
398
00:25:18,650 --> 00:25:21,620
Mr. Morimoto, you are up next.
399
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,222
In 30 seconds, okay?
400
00:25:26,124 --> 00:25:27,759
Please begin.
401
00:25:34,399 --> 00:25:36,434
Please start your pitch.
402
00:25:42,641 --> 00:25:45,310
This is what I can contribute.
403
00:25:48,947 --> 00:25:50,415
Wow.
404
00:25:51,683 --> 00:25:53,051
You did this in college?
405
00:25:57,622 --> 00:26:01,893
I loaded an existing 3D asset into my
home-brew rendering system.
406
00:26:02,961 --> 00:26:07,032
You will be able to render anything more
realistically with my tech.
407
00:26:17,609 --> 00:26:21,680
Although, if you prefer
your cheaper 2D graphics,
408
00:26:21,746 --> 00:26:23,582
then please disregard.
409
00:26:25,183 --> 00:26:26,818
Sorry it looks cheap.
410
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:28,954
Wow.
411
00:26:39,798 --> 00:26:40,832
Excuse me!
412
00:26:41,399 --> 00:26:42,267
Excuse me!
413
00:26:44,669 --> 00:26:47,572
That's what they must mean by contribute!
414
00:26:48,406 --> 00:26:49,240
What?
415
00:26:49,307 --> 00:26:52,310
I haven't been this moved in decades.
416
00:26:54,245 --> 00:26:55,447
Thank you!
417
00:27:05,624 --> 00:27:07,692
What's with those last two?
418
00:27:07,759 --> 00:27:08,927
I'm exhausted.
419
00:27:10,028 --> 00:27:13,598
Morimoto's skills will undoubtedly
help us immediately.
420
00:27:13,665 --> 00:27:15,000
No way!
421
00:27:15,066 --> 00:27:16,868
He never stops talking.
422
00:27:16,935 --> 00:27:18,536
Terrible communication.
423
00:27:18,603 --> 00:27:20,672
He won't fit into our team.
424
00:27:20,739 --> 00:27:25,043
But his technology could help us
come up with a new service.
425
00:27:25,110 --> 00:27:26,044
Sana!
426
00:27:26,111 --> 00:27:29,714
{\an8}I feel he would help expand our potential.
427
00:27:30,248 --> 00:27:31,950
Give the team the jolt we need.
428
00:27:32,717 --> 00:27:34,753
I agree with Sana.
429
00:27:34,819 --> 00:27:37,622
-Not you, too!
-Can you do what he does?
430
00:27:41,326 --> 00:27:43,461
Don't say I didn't warn you.
431
00:27:44,829 --> 00:27:46,364
Okay.
432
00:27:48,767 --> 00:27:50,235
{\an8}ACCEPTED
433
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:56,841
What about Kojima?
434
00:27:57,509 --> 00:27:58,710
It's Kotori!
435
00:27:59,944 --> 00:28:01,012
Pass on him, right?
436
00:28:02,914 --> 00:28:07,252
It was nice how interested he was though,
right?
437
00:28:08,153 --> 00:28:10,989
But he's practically a boomer.
438
00:28:11,056 --> 00:28:13,191
He can't contribute right away.
439
00:28:16,194 --> 00:28:17,796
REJECTED
440
00:28:31,776 --> 00:28:32,610
-Again.
-Okay.
441
00:28:32,677 --> 00:28:34,579
-Ready?
-And go!
442
00:28:40,251 --> 00:28:41,786
-Seems good.
-Okay.
443
00:28:44,789 --> 00:28:46,791
Welcome home, Sis!
444
00:28:48,259 --> 00:28:49,260
Thanks.
445
00:28:50,695 --> 00:28:53,264
Our front yard isn't your personal studio.
446
00:28:53,331 --> 00:28:55,433
You'll bother the neighbors.
447
00:28:56,067 --> 00:28:59,604
But the backdrop there is so cute!
Wanna see?
448
00:28:59,671 --> 00:29:00,638
No.
449
00:29:01,773 --> 00:29:05,176
Did you tell mom you were over here again?
450
00:29:05,243 --> 00:29:07,846
Yeah, I did, but I doubt she read it.
451
00:29:09,314 --> 00:29:11,182
What about dinner?
452
00:29:11,249 --> 00:29:13,017
I had pasta with my boyfriend.
453
00:29:13,084 --> 00:29:14,652
-Wanna see?
-No!
454
00:29:15,687 --> 00:29:17,388
Did you get a new boyfriend?
455
00:29:17,455 --> 00:29:20,658
-What happened to the soccer player?
-He's a basketball player now.
456
00:29:21,226 --> 00:29:22,961
He dunked on someone today!
457
00:29:23,027 --> 00:29:24,863
-Wanna see?
-No.
458
00:29:26,765 --> 00:29:27,999
Actually.
459
00:29:28,633 --> 00:29:29,768
What about you?
460
00:29:30,301 --> 00:29:31,402
When'll you find love?
461
00:29:33,371 --> 00:29:34,906
When's your last kiss?
462
00:29:36,741 --> 00:29:39,711
That's right! I had laundry to do!
Can't forget!
463
00:29:40,478 --> 00:29:41,479
Sis!
464
00:29:46,518 --> 00:29:49,354
You work all day and
eat convenience store dinners.
465
00:29:50,221 --> 00:29:53,625
Do you have any excitement in your life?
466
00:29:54,125 --> 00:29:56,461
I have excitement every day.
467
00:29:57,162 --> 00:29:58,963
You mean at work though.
468
00:29:59,764 --> 00:30:03,434
I need you to fall in love and have
a fulfilling love life.
469
00:30:03,501 --> 00:30:05,804
Mom and I are worried.
470
00:30:06,671 --> 00:30:09,541
Love and marriage aren't everything.
471
00:30:09,607 --> 00:30:12,343
I'm able to do laundry
with a washing machine
472
00:30:12,410 --> 00:30:14,279
I bought with my own money.
473
00:30:15,113 --> 00:30:17,582
That makes your big sister happy enough.
474
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:23,922
What about Ko?
475
00:30:23,988 --> 00:30:24,956
How's he?
476
00:30:25,023 --> 00:30:25,857
Ko?
477
00:30:25,924 --> 00:30:26,958
He's fine, why?
478
00:30:27,759 --> 00:30:32,030
He's the son of
Suzaki Realty Group's president, right?
479
00:30:32,096 --> 00:30:33,264
Yeah.
480
00:30:33,331 --> 00:30:36,634
If only he was your boyfriend!
481
00:30:37,135 --> 00:30:39,604
That Rich Kid is just a business partner.
482
00:30:39,671 --> 00:30:41,606
Nothing more, nothing less.
483
00:30:44,042 --> 00:30:45,410
Time to eat!
484
00:31:00,925 --> 00:31:04,462
I feel sorry that you can't enjoy
an after-shower beer.
485
00:31:04,529 --> 00:31:07,232
That's rich coming from captain hangover.
486
00:31:09,133 --> 00:31:10,001
Anyway,
487
00:31:10,568 --> 00:31:11,970
I wonder if Sana is okay.
488
00:31:12,804 --> 00:31:13,671
What?
489
00:31:14,339 --> 00:31:15,707
Being CEO
490
00:31:16,541 --> 00:31:17,542
must be hard.
491
00:31:18,142 --> 00:31:21,045
It's isolating with a huge responsibility.
492
00:31:22,413 --> 00:31:24,549
Worried about Sana this late at night?
493
00:31:25,516 --> 00:31:27,852
-That's love.
-It's not like that.
494
00:31:28,353 --> 00:31:30,388
We're just business partners now.
495
00:31:33,024 --> 00:31:35,293
TOKYO STUDENT BUSINESS CONTEST
496
00:31:53,845 --> 00:31:56,447
What about you? When'll you find love?
497
00:32:00,018 --> 00:32:01,719
I'd love to know.
498
00:32:04,722 --> 00:32:07,258
So this is a rejection letter.
499
00:32:07,325 --> 00:32:08,893
UNFORTUNATELY, YOU WERE NOT SELECTED.
500
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:13,231
Middle aged guys like us can't
change careers.
501
00:32:13,298 --> 00:32:14,465
Drink up.
502
00:32:15,566 --> 00:32:17,435
No age restrictions, my ass.
503
00:32:18,102 --> 00:32:20,538
It's always out with the old,
in with the new.
504
00:32:23,007 --> 00:32:24,542
-But it was fun.
-Hmm?
505
00:32:25,410 --> 00:32:26,377
I had fun.
506
00:32:26,945 --> 00:32:27,779
So
507
00:32:29,113 --> 00:32:30,315
I got these.
508
00:32:30,882 --> 00:32:31,983
Seriously?
509
00:32:32,050 --> 00:32:33,885
What'd you buy these for?
510
00:32:36,220 --> 00:32:37,188
Don't tell me,
511
00:32:37,922 --> 00:32:39,057
you're not giving up?
512
00:32:41,225 --> 00:32:43,928
Most startups go bankrupt.
513
00:32:44,896 --> 00:32:45,897
I already decided.
514
00:32:50,234 --> 00:32:51,235
I'm off!
515
00:32:51,302 --> 00:32:52,870
Okay, be careful!
516
00:32:52,937 --> 00:32:53,805
Okay!
517
00:33:01,546 --> 00:33:06,417
MAJOR TELECOM COMPANY CYBER MOBILE
SELECTS SACHI HANEDA AS NEW CEO
518
00:33:07,585 --> 00:33:08,419
What?!
519
00:33:16,794 --> 00:33:17,795
Come on.
520
00:33:29,007 --> 00:33:29,974
Hello?
521
00:33:30,041 --> 00:33:31,509
Ko, did you see the news?
522
00:33:32,276 --> 00:33:33,111
News?
523
00:33:33,177 --> 00:33:35,680
About Sachi Haneda!
524
00:33:37,281 --> 00:33:40,218
There is great hope for the next stage.
525
00:33:40,284 --> 00:33:43,888
We look forward to our coming future.
526
00:33:44,889 --> 00:33:46,157
Cyber Mobile...
527
00:33:46,224 --> 00:33:47,625
Time to eat.
528
00:33:47,692 --> 00:33:50,561
What is Sachi Haneda challenging next?
529
00:33:50,628 --> 00:33:52,597
Entrepreneurial development.
530
00:33:53,898 --> 00:33:57,402
{\an8}Japan lags behind in
entrepreneurship globally.
531
00:33:58,002 --> 00:34:01,472
{\an8}Unicorn companies are cropping up
around the world
532
00:34:01,539 --> 00:34:06,010
mostly concentrated in America and China.
533
00:34:06,077 --> 00:34:08,446
But only a few exist in Japan.
534
00:34:09,180 --> 00:34:13,284
There are three reasons for this setback.
535
00:34:15,219 --> 00:34:18,489
The lack of stages to foster
entrepreneurship.
536
00:34:19,157 --> 00:34:21,392
The Japanese nature of fearing failure.
537
00:34:21,993 --> 00:34:23,394
And
538
00:34:24,062 --> 00:34:26,964
the difficulty of securing finances.
539
00:34:28,032 --> 00:34:30,935
{\an8}The first thing our company can contribute
540
00:34:31,002 --> 00:34:33,504
{\an8}is financial support.
541
00:34:34,305 --> 00:34:36,841
Businesses can't grow without money.
542
00:34:37,442 --> 00:34:39,911
And so, we have a new initiative.
543
00:34:40,678 --> 00:34:41,546
{\an8}It's called
544
00:34:42,180 --> 00:34:44,282
{\an8}the Unicorn Creation Project.
545
00:34:45,650 --> 00:34:49,520
{\an8}We will select ten companies
with promising future prospects,
546
00:34:49,587 --> 00:34:53,524
{\an8}and give them 100 million yen each.
547
00:34:53,591 --> 00:34:54,859
100 million?
548
00:34:54,926 --> 00:34:56,794
We'd get it for free?
549
00:34:56,861 --> 00:34:58,830
How generous!
550
00:34:58,896 --> 00:35:03,668
{\an8}I eagerly await all of you entrepreneurs
striving to become unicorns.
551
00:35:07,338 --> 00:35:08,172
Let's do it.
552
00:35:09,073 --> 00:35:09,907
Let's apply.
553
00:35:11,542 --> 00:35:12,743
I expected that.
554
00:35:12,810 --> 00:35:14,645
It's 100 million.
555
00:35:14,712 --> 00:35:15,980
It's not just the money.
556
00:35:16,047 --> 00:35:19,083
If we can connect with
President Haneda through this,
557
00:35:19,150 --> 00:35:21,219
we might be able to get her advice.
558
00:35:21,786 --> 00:35:22,787
True.
559
00:35:22,854 --> 00:35:24,522
I know how much you admire her.
560
00:35:26,290 --> 00:35:28,126
There's a document screening.
561
00:35:28,192 --> 00:35:30,728
Having a young, female CEO is rare.
562
00:35:30,795 --> 00:35:32,463
We might have a leg up!
563
00:35:32,530 --> 00:35:34,232
That's so true!
564
00:35:34,899 --> 00:35:37,568
-100 million!
-100 million!
565
00:35:40,905 --> 00:35:42,573
Now, let's get to work!
566
00:35:45,843 --> 00:35:47,912
UNICORN CEO, SACHI HANEDA
567
00:35:54,152 --> 00:35:56,254
YOU CAN MAKE UP ANY DIFFERENCE
WITH THE POWER OF IT.
568
00:36:11,903 --> 00:36:13,171
Don't go overboard.
569
00:36:14,205 --> 00:36:15,039
I know.
570
00:36:15,540 --> 00:36:16,374
Thanks.
571
00:36:18,309 --> 00:36:19,677
Okay, I'm off.
572
00:36:19,744 --> 00:36:20,778
Take care.
573
00:36:22,180 --> 00:36:24,015
COMPANY NAME: DREAM PONY
REPRESENTATIVE: SANA NARUKAWA
574
00:36:24,815 --> 00:36:29,320
I once met you during
a special lecture at Keisei University.
575
00:36:30,254 --> 00:36:35,126
Ever since that day, I admired your
entrepreneurship as a fellow woman,
576
00:36:35,193 --> 00:36:37,028
and decided to found my own business.
577
00:36:45,203 --> 00:36:47,271
{\an8}A FEW DAYS LATER
578
00:36:47,338 --> 00:36:48,706
{\an8}Ready? I'm opening it.
579
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:50,408
{\an8}Okay.
580
00:36:50,474 --> 00:36:52,410
{\an8}UNICORN CREATION PROJECT RESULTS
581
00:36:57,081 --> 00:36:59,283
{\an8}DREAM PONY, SANA NARUKAWA
582
00:36:59,350 --> 00:37:01,385
{\an8}UNFORTUNATELY YOU DID NOT PASS
THE DOCUMENT SCREENING
583
00:37:01,452 --> 00:37:03,387
{\an8}DID NOT PASS
584
00:37:05,556 --> 00:37:07,191
We didn't pass?
585
00:37:07,258 --> 00:37:08,092
For real?
586
00:37:08,159 --> 00:37:09,794
This has to be a mistake!
587
00:37:12,897 --> 00:37:14,398
I'm sorry, everyone.
588
00:37:18,035 --> 00:37:18,869
All right.
589
00:37:19,437 --> 00:37:21,672
Let's all get back to work.
590
00:37:21,739 --> 00:37:22,640
Yeah.
591
00:37:23,307 --> 00:37:24,642
Back to work!
592
00:37:25,309 --> 00:37:26,644
Let's go.
593
00:37:27,378 --> 00:37:28,679
There's nothing we can do.
594
00:37:28,746 --> 00:37:30,615
Ah! Work!
595
00:37:34,485 --> 00:37:35,419
Why're you so down?
596
00:37:36,587 --> 00:37:38,656
It was a one in a million shot.
597
00:37:39,824 --> 00:37:40,858
Why?
598
00:37:42,193 --> 00:37:46,597
My dream is to create a place
where everyone can learn equally.
599
00:37:47,365 --> 00:37:48,733
What a wonderful dream.
600
00:37:52,570 --> 00:37:53,871
I'm going out.
601
00:37:54,572 --> 00:37:55,406
What?
602
00:37:56,073 --> 00:37:56,907
Sana!
603
00:38:06,183 --> 00:38:08,252
I have to see President Haneda!
604
00:38:08,319 --> 00:38:10,288
Please let me make an appointment.
605
00:38:10,354 --> 00:38:13,691
{\an8}Unfortunately, her schedule is filled
for the next month.
606
00:38:14,258 --> 00:38:15,426
{\an8}A whole month?
607
00:38:15,493 --> 00:38:17,795
{\an8}Is there anything you can do?
608
00:38:17,862 --> 00:38:20,031
Three minutes is all I need.
609
00:38:20,097 --> 00:38:25,002
I'm sorry, but Haneda prioritizes
those with appointments.
610
00:38:25,069 --> 00:38:26,304
Not even three minutes?
611
00:38:26,937 --> 00:38:27,805
What do you need?
612
00:38:37,248 --> 00:38:38,382
Sachi Haneda!
613
00:38:38,949 --> 00:38:40,551
No honorific?
614
00:38:41,118 --> 00:38:43,287
I'm so sorry, President Haneda!
615
00:38:47,458 --> 00:38:49,460
I'm Dream Pony's CEO Narukawa.
616
00:38:51,329 --> 00:38:54,332
We were honored to apply to your project.
617
00:38:57,168 --> 00:38:58,502
You failed the first cut?
618
00:38:59,904 --> 00:39:00,905
Why did we?
619
00:39:01,472 --> 00:39:03,307
Could you tell me why at least?
620
00:39:05,009 --> 00:39:06,344
I don't have time.
621
00:39:10,047 --> 00:39:12,583
"You can make up any difference
with the power of IT."
622
00:39:12,650 --> 00:39:15,619
These words encouraged me
to start my own company.
623
00:39:16,153 --> 00:39:18,556
When you made your
fashion e-commerce site,
624
00:39:18,622 --> 00:39:21,992
people were able to buy clothes
wherever they lived.
625
00:39:22,059 --> 00:39:24,662
I want to create an equal
educational field with IT.
626
00:39:25,930 --> 00:39:27,565
What did I do wrong?
627
00:39:29,500 --> 00:39:35,506
Do you know what the business world calls
the EdTech market you're looking to enter?
628
00:39:37,074 --> 00:39:39,210
-Well...
-Unprofitable.
629
00:39:41,078 --> 00:39:42,012
But!
630
00:39:46,384 --> 00:39:50,955
The declining birth rate means
the education field will only get tougher.
631
00:39:52,523 --> 00:39:55,659
All the users you fight so hard to gain
632
00:39:55,726 --> 00:39:58,763
will easily drop the app once
they're done with exams.
633
00:39:59,997 --> 00:40:03,968
No market like that will produce
a unicorn, no matter the investment.
634
00:40:05,936 --> 00:40:10,508
Did you think we'd favor you because
there are so few female entrepreneurs?
635
00:40:13,878 --> 00:40:15,346
Besides, you are always
636
00:40:16,747 --> 00:40:19,150
using your childhood struggles
637
00:40:20,117 --> 00:40:22,153
to gather sympathy from others.
638
00:40:23,354 --> 00:40:24,188
What?
639
00:40:24,255 --> 00:40:28,426
I make sure we research
our applicants to a degree.
640
00:40:30,127 --> 00:40:33,764
I know about the magazine articles,
641
00:40:35,032 --> 00:40:37,968
and how you retain the public's attention.
642
00:40:38,836 --> 00:40:41,372
A harrowing story of a girl
growing up in poverty,
643
00:40:42,106 --> 00:40:43,441
raised by a single mother,
644
00:40:44,108 --> 00:40:46,076
who after dropping out of school
645
00:40:46,644 --> 00:40:48,746
became a CEO overnight.
646
00:40:50,981 --> 00:40:53,684
You have nothing besides that story.
647
00:40:55,853 --> 00:41:00,925
And since you realize this,
you always repeat it to no end,
648
00:41:01,559 --> 00:41:03,360
staking your entire career on it.
649
00:41:06,163 --> 00:41:07,231
Tell me,
650
00:41:08,566 --> 00:41:11,635
what have you done yourself
these last three years?
651
00:41:14,271 --> 00:41:15,139
I...
652
00:41:18,609 --> 00:41:22,012
There's no future for a company
with a CEO who doesn't grow.
653
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:24,215
Now, excuse me.
654
00:41:37,661 --> 00:41:38,829
Where's Sana?
655
00:41:42,233 --> 00:41:43,367
She's not back?
656
00:41:50,941 --> 00:41:54,278
There's no future for a company
with a CEO who doesn't grow.
657
00:42:03,587 --> 00:42:04,822
KO SUZAKI
658
00:42:06,690 --> 00:42:07,591
Hello?
659
00:42:08,158 --> 00:42:09,627
Hey, Sana. Where are you?
660
00:42:10,394 --> 00:42:11,228
Huh?
661
00:42:11,295 --> 00:42:14,665
We got a call from
the Mori Memorial Library.
662
00:42:14,732 --> 00:42:16,500
You had a meeting at 4:00 p.m.
663
00:42:21,138 --> 00:42:22,573
{\an8}4:00 P.M. MORI MEMORIAL LIBRARY MEETING
664
00:42:23,140 --> 00:42:24,575
I'm sorry!
665
00:42:25,075 --> 00:42:26,377
Hello?
666
00:42:26,877 --> 00:42:27,778
Sana?
667
00:42:29,513 --> 00:42:31,448
Sana's never done this before.
668
00:42:55,339 --> 00:42:56,407
Let's leave.
669
00:42:59,510 --> 00:43:00,678
I'm sorry I'm late!
670
00:43:00,744 --> 00:43:03,280
Please accept my sincere apology!
671
00:43:03,347 --> 00:43:04,648
We were waiting here
672
00:43:05,182 --> 00:43:10,254
because you begged us to create
a demo area for your app.
673
00:43:10,321 --> 00:43:12,990
And you show up late without even a call?
674
00:43:13,057 --> 00:43:14,458
I am truly sorry.
675
00:43:14,525 --> 00:43:16,694
This will never happen again.
676
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:17,628
I'm sorry.
677
00:43:17,695 --> 00:43:19,363
But we're going to have to pass.
678
00:43:19,930 --> 00:43:20,598
What?
679
00:43:20,664 --> 00:43:24,201
We're too busy to deal with
some student hobby.
680
00:43:24,268 --> 00:43:26,904
I bet her being CEO
is just a title anyway.
681
00:43:57,668 --> 00:43:59,203
-I'm sorry!
-I'm sorry!
682
00:43:59,803 --> 00:44:00,537
Huh?
683
00:44:01,538 --> 00:44:02,506
President Narukawa!
684
00:44:02,573 --> 00:44:03,641
Why are...
685
00:44:06,577 --> 00:44:07,845
Well, I...
686
00:44:12,816 --> 00:44:15,452
This is just hay fever.
687
00:44:21,725 --> 00:44:23,260
Here you go.
688
00:44:24,061 --> 00:44:26,063
Thank you.
689
00:44:27,798 --> 00:44:30,134
I suppose it would be ragweed season.
690
00:44:31,935 --> 00:44:33,103
Is it?
691
00:44:37,708 --> 00:44:38,542
What's all this?
692
00:44:39,143 --> 00:44:41,478
I'm studying up.
693
00:44:42,112 --> 00:44:45,249
I'm sorry if you find this creepy.
694
00:44:46,150 --> 00:44:50,120
But the more I studied IT and EdTech,
the more interested I became!
695
00:44:51,288 --> 00:44:55,592
Once I learn a bit more,
I plan to reapply to your company.
696
00:44:57,961 --> 00:44:59,363
Why go that far?
697
00:45:00,464 --> 00:45:04,668
If you're interested in education,
there are countless other companies.
698
00:45:07,671 --> 00:45:08,539
Well...
699
00:45:16,780 --> 00:45:19,216
SANA NARUKAWA
700
00:45:21,285 --> 00:45:22,920
It's because I was moved
701
00:45:23,554 --> 00:45:24,855
by your ideals.
702
00:45:31,428 --> 00:45:32,396
President Narukawa?
703
00:45:36,867 --> 00:45:37,868
I...
704
00:45:39,837 --> 00:45:43,040
I may talk big about
my dreams in interviews,
705
00:45:45,142 --> 00:45:46,877
but in reality,
706
00:45:48,445 --> 00:45:50,013
I'm a terrible CEO.
707
00:45:53,016 --> 00:45:56,420
I only know how to play up
my childhood struggles.
708
00:45:59,156 --> 00:46:01,091
The only reason I'm CEO
709
00:46:02,426 --> 00:46:05,829
is because of the engineering team
behind the app,
710
00:46:06,830 --> 00:46:08,565
and not my own talents.
711
00:46:14,138 --> 00:46:15,105
Me?
712
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:18,242
I have nothing.
713
00:46:26,250 --> 00:46:27,084
But
714
00:46:28,852 --> 00:46:30,087
President Narukawa,
715
00:46:31,155 --> 00:46:35,259
you have what's most important as a CEO.
716
00:46:38,629 --> 00:46:43,867
{\an8}I was curious as to why most startups
folded in three years, so I looked it up.
717
00:46:44,735 --> 00:46:47,738
{\an8}I initially thought
it was lack of funding.
718
00:46:47,805 --> 00:46:48,906
{\an8}But I was wrong.
719
00:46:50,808 --> 00:46:52,509
{\an8}The most common reason
720
00:46:53,377 --> 00:46:56,547
is that the CEO gives up.
721
00:46:58,782 --> 00:47:00,450
But you,
722
00:47:01,051 --> 00:47:03,020
as far as the articles I've read,
723
00:47:03,921 --> 00:47:07,090
continue to hold the same dream
you did when you started.
724
00:47:09,026 --> 00:47:12,229
You never stop striving for it.
725
00:47:14,364 --> 00:47:15,599
I'm sure,
726
00:47:16,767 --> 00:47:18,535
the reason why you persevere
727
00:47:20,137 --> 00:47:24,274
is because of your past hardships
and frustrations.
728
00:47:33,016 --> 00:47:34,017
And that dream,
729
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:37,821
has become my new dream.
730
00:47:40,991 --> 00:47:43,060
The reason I could take a step forward,
731
00:47:44,494 --> 00:47:45,395
is you,
732
00:47:47,264 --> 00:47:48,532
President Narukawa.
733
00:48:01,545 --> 00:48:03,580
Shall I buy you hay fever medicine?
734
00:48:03,647 --> 00:48:04,615
That's okay.
735
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:11,421
Thank you.
736
00:48:16,827 --> 00:48:19,062
I WANT TO CREATE A PLACE
WHERE EVERYONE CAN LEARN EQUALLY
737
00:48:20,664 --> 00:48:21,899
So all I need
738
00:48:23,901 --> 00:48:25,569
is to have this dream?
739
00:48:38,382 --> 00:48:41,051
-I should go buy you some.
-I'm okay.
740
00:48:49,159 --> 00:48:50,360
I know I talked big...
741
00:48:51,295 --> 00:48:52,262
That guy...
742
00:48:54,998 --> 00:48:56,466
-It's hard, isn't it?
-Yes.
743
00:49:16,586 --> 00:49:18,722
You must have been worried.
744
00:49:19,222 --> 00:49:20,057
Thanks.
745
00:49:21,692 --> 00:49:24,261
Anyway, why were you with him?
746
00:49:25,462 --> 00:49:26,930
Seems like he was studying.
747
00:49:27,564 --> 00:49:28,465
Studying?
748
00:49:46,650 --> 00:49:50,087
The more I studied IT and EdTech,
the more interested I became!
749
00:49:56,226 --> 00:49:57,060
Sana?
750
00:49:57,961 --> 00:49:58,795
What is it?
751
00:49:59,563 --> 00:50:00,397
Ko!
752
00:50:01,598 --> 00:50:03,467
I need your help with something.
753
00:50:06,236 --> 00:50:07,237
I got an idea.
754
00:50:11,808 --> 00:50:13,143
I sent you some references.
755
00:50:13,210 --> 00:50:14,244
Thanks.
756
00:50:17,147 --> 00:50:18,281
What're you doing?
757
00:50:18,348 --> 00:50:19,516
Come help us!
758
00:50:21,685 --> 00:50:24,321
Financial planners need qualifications.
759
00:50:25,022 --> 00:50:26,189
There's piano, too.
760
00:50:26,256 --> 00:50:27,290
PIANO
761
00:50:27,357 --> 00:50:29,393
And programming.
762
00:50:30,327 --> 00:50:31,661
What else is there?
763
00:50:31,728 --> 00:50:35,232
The school should feel
lighthearted like this, right?
764
00:50:35,298 --> 00:50:38,001
What about adding
a theme park or mall too?
765
00:50:38,068 --> 00:50:39,703
It could add some fun.
766
00:51:05,162 --> 00:51:07,164
It's late. You two can head home.
767
00:51:09,366 --> 00:51:10,367
We'll stay.
768
00:51:10,434 --> 00:51:11,802
This is about momentum.
769
00:51:12,502 --> 00:51:16,206
We take your idea and give it shape.
770
00:51:16,273 --> 00:51:17,240
Like always.
771
00:51:24,548 --> 00:51:27,417
DREAM PONY
772
00:51:37,294 --> 00:51:38,128
All right!
773
00:52:02,752 --> 00:52:03,987
President Haneda!
774
00:52:09,759 --> 00:52:12,129
Nothing you say will change the results.
775
00:52:12,195 --> 00:52:13,930
I'm not here for funding.
776
00:52:13,997 --> 00:52:17,467
I came up with a new service
after receiving your advice.
777
00:52:17,534 --> 00:52:18,568
I'd love to tell you.
778
00:52:20,837 --> 00:52:22,038
I don't have time.
779
00:52:24,708 --> 00:52:26,009
Hey!
780
00:52:26,076 --> 00:52:27,110
Please,
781
00:52:27,844 --> 00:52:29,746
I promise it won't be long!
782
00:52:36,686 --> 00:52:40,323
With a declining population,
EdTech may not be profitable.
783
00:52:41,925 --> 00:52:43,160
But I realized
784
00:52:44,094 --> 00:52:46,129
learning isn't just for children.
785
00:52:48,331 --> 00:52:53,003
Adults can learn from any age,
taking in new knowledge.
786
00:52:55,739 --> 00:52:58,942
I believe there are many adults
who want to learn new things,
787
00:52:59,009 --> 00:53:01,745
but don't have the opportunity
and can't take the first step.
788
00:53:01,811 --> 00:53:04,381
If we can awaken
their passion for learning,
789
00:53:04,447 --> 00:53:05,882
and give them support,
790
00:53:05,949 --> 00:53:09,085
the EdTech sector
could grow into a huge market.
791
00:53:12,055 --> 00:53:13,056
So what?
792
00:53:16,159 --> 00:53:18,662
How do you propose to do that?
793
00:53:29,039 --> 00:53:30,807
I'd like to make this product.
794
00:53:31,841 --> 00:53:32,676
What's this?
795
00:53:33,677 --> 00:53:36,313
A free virtual school anyone can attend.
796
00:53:38,949 --> 00:53:40,183
A virtual school?
797
00:53:42,652 --> 00:53:45,355
We gather together all the schools
798
00:53:45,422 --> 00:53:49,593
we normally attend like academic schools
and language schools,
799
00:53:49,659 --> 00:53:52,162
and create an online virtual space.
800
00:53:52,229 --> 00:53:57,934
Users attend with avatars they create,
taking any class they want at any time.
801
00:53:58,668 --> 00:54:03,807
I'd like to actualize a world where users
can take classes together and communicate.
802
00:54:06,042 --> 00:54:09,746
For now, it's just an ideal world
depicted on a sheet of paper,
803
00:54:10,347 --> 00:54:11,681
but once it's complete,
804
00:54:11,748 --> 00:54:15,919
people will be able to learn equally,
no matter their age,
805
00:54:16,519 --> 00:54:18,255
gender, money, or location.
806
00:54:19,222 --> 00:54:20,557
I promise to
807
00:54:21,224 --> 00:54:23,660
make this a reality at Dream Pony.
808
00:54:33,169 --> 00:54:34,671
That is a big dream.
809
00:54:35,305 --> 00:54:38,074
So big it's laughable.
810
00:54:40,410 --> 00:54:43,480
If you're seriously going to create
something this big,
811
00:54:43,546 --> 00:54:45,148
you'll need enormous funds.
812
00:54:46,016 --> 00:54:48,451
You'll also need world-class technology.
813
00:54:48,518 --> 00:54:49,486
And you
814
00:54:50,253 --> 00:54:53,356
want to offer that to all users for free?
815
00:54:55,225 --> 00:54:58,428
That is Dream Pony's ideology.
816
00:54:58,995 --> 00:55:00,063
It won't work.
817
00:55:02,065 --> 00:55:04,267
You plan to rely on just ad revenue?
818
00:55:05,168 --> 00:55:06,870
You won't turn a profit.
819
00:55:08,371 --> 00:55:10,507
It's a long way from happening.
820
00:55:14,044 --> 00:55:14,978
But
821
00:55:18,214 --> 00:55:20,150
interesting point of view.
822
00:55:24,921 --> 00:55:26,222
What a wonderful dream.
823
00:55:32,095 --> 00:55:34,898
Once you get closer to finishing it,
824
00:55:35,732 --> 00:55:37,867
come talk to me again.
825
00:55:43,340 --> 00:55:44,407
Thank you!
826
00:56:04,861 --> 00:56:07,731
I'd love to introduce our new staff.
827
00:56:14,571 --> 00:56:15,405
Hey.
828
00:56:16,373 --> 00:56:17,207
Over here.
829
00:56:23,413 --> 00:56:25,315
I'm Morimoto.
Starting today I will be working here.
830
00:56:25,382 --> 00:56:27,951
I specialize in image algorithms,
block-chain...
831
00:56:28,017 --> 00:56:29,953
There he goes again. Calm down!
832
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:31,421
Calm down.
833
00:56:32,856 --> 00:56:36,059
There's actually one more new member.
834
00:56:36,893 --> 00:56:37,727
What?!
835
00:56:43,066 --> 00:56:44,067
Come in.
836
00:56:47,904 --> 00:56:48,805
What? Why?
837
00:56:51,174 --> 00:56:52,308
What's he doing here?
838
00:57:01,985 --> 00:57:03,753
I want to hire him too.
839
00:57:04,754 --> 00:57:05,688
You're joking.
840
00:57:05,755 --> 00:57:08,358
Yes, he doesn't fit the criteria,
841
00:57:09,359 --> 00:57:12,729
but I remembered
the most important requirement.
842
00:57:14,130 --> 00:57:14,964
What's that?
843
00:57:17,534 --> 00:57:19,302
Someone who shares our ideals.
844
00:57:21,471 --> 00:57:25,442
When we founded Dream Pony,
remember what you and Jiro said?
845
00:57:26,242 --> 00:57:28,044
That you want to join my dream.
846
00:57:29,846 --> 00:57:32,849
I almost forgot it
when it's the most important thing.
847
00:57:33,917 --> 00:57:37,220
But Mr. Kotori was able to remind me.
848
00:57:40,156 --> 00:57:44,394
I want to work with people who hold
the same dream as me.
849
00:57:47,330 --> 00:57:49,532
I will do my best to help any way I can.
850
00:57:51,367 --> 00:57:52,769
Welcome aboard.
851
00:57:53,470 --> 00:57:54,471
Thank you.
852
00:57:54,537 --> 00:57:56,039
I look forward to it.
853
00:58:00,176 --> 00:58:02,378
Shouldn't we share the company rules?
854
00:58:02,946 --> 00:58:03,613
Rules?
855
00:58:05,381 --> 00:58:07,650
{\an8}Morning meetings are mandatory,
856
00:58:07,717 --> 00:58:09,686
{\an8}keep the shared space clean,
857
00:58:09,752 --> 00:58:11,855
{\an8}and finally, no office romance.
858
00:58:12,422 --> 00:58:14,023
Is the last one necessary?
859
00:58:14,090 --> 00:58:15,258
I get it!
860
00:58:15,325 --> 00:58:17,193
It's a mysterious old-fashioned rule.
861
00:58:17,260 --> 00:58:17,994
It's fine.
862
00:58:18,061 --> 00:58:22,465
It's a small company, we don't need
any romantic drama taking us down.
863
00:58:23,233 --> 00:58:24,501
I see.
864
00:58:24,567 --> 00:58:28,238
Romance is the gateway
to destruction for startups.
865
00:58:28,304 --> 00:58:31,541
I don't think you need to worry, Kotori.
866
00:58:32,408 --> 00:58:33,943
That's so rude!
867
00:58:34,010 --> 00:58:36,312
-He can worry!
-For real.
868
00:58:42,652 --> 00:58:43,553
Ready?
869
00:58:45,088 --> 00:58:47,724
{\an8}Smile, this is for the website!
870
00:58:47,790 --> 00:58:49,792
{\an8}I'm not in the mood.
871
00:58:54,764 --> 00:58:56,299
{\an8}Where's Mr. Kotori?
872
00:58:57,033 --> 00:58:58,368
{\an8}I haven't seen him.
873
00:59:03,873 --> 00:59:06,309
{\an8}What are you wearing?
874
00:59:07,143 --> 00:59:09,312
{\an8}I thought this fit the company better.
875
00:59:09,379 --> 00:59:11,748
{\an8}Kotori Jobs! That's hilarious!
876
00:59:11,814 --> 00:59:13,449
{\an8}That's way too on the nose!
877
00:59:13,516 --> 00:59:14,751
{\an8}Awesome!
878
00:59:17,186 --> 00:59:19,122
{\an8}It's not an ID photo!
879
00:59:33,436 --> 00:59:34,437
{\an8}Say cheese.
880
00:59:41,010 --> 00:59:44,914
{\an8}SANA NARUKAWA, CEO
881
00:59:44,981 --> 00:59:49,085
{\an8}KO SUZAKI, CTO, APPLICATION ENGINEER
882

{\an8}SATOSHI KOTORI, FORMER BANK MANAGER
886
01:00:06,536 --> 01:00:08,671
{\an8}You just started, it's okay.
887
01:00:08,738 --> 01:00:12,075
{\an8}-Sorry, I missed your message!
-You have to follow our rules.
888
01:00:12,141 --> 01:00:14,077
{\an8}Do you not have any pride?
889
01:00:14,143 --> 01:00:15,011
{\an8}Sorry for interrupting.
890
01:00:15,078 --> 01:00:15,945
{\an8}You're not.
891
01:00:16,012 --> 01:00:16,879
{\an8}It's not a date.
892
01:00:16,946 --> 01:00:18,982
{\an8}-Have we met?
-Let's run.
893
01:00:19,048 --> 01:00:19,916
{\an8}What?
894
01:00:19,983 --> 01:00:23,953
