00:00We have Japanese people.
00:02Welcome back.
00:03The ones who are cutting the line are the prisoners.
00:07Prisoners.
00:08This show is a close-up documentary of their true nature.
00:15This time, we are in...
00:17What?
00:18Malaysia.
00:19I've never been there.
00:21Really?
00:22Malaysia is the most popular country for Japanese immigrants.
00:28More than 1,600 Japanese companies have entered the market.
00:33The first one to enter the market is...
00:37a single mother, Lin Wan.
00:41How do we achieve the target?
00:44Create a new customer.
00:46Her dream is to become a president.
00:48The prisoners of IT companies are struggling with cultural differences.
00:54I don't like this.
00:55It's a bit too much.
00:58It's too much.
01:00Meanwhile, the prisoners are having fun.
01:04I feel like I've grown a little.
01:09It's so good.
01:13What is the reality of overseas life seen from the prisoners' point of view?
01:19Welcome to Malaysia.
01:22This is Malaysia.
01:25Prisoners in the World.
01:35Malaysia is located in Southeast Asia and has a population of 33.5 million.
01:40The buildings are amazing.
01:42The average annual temperature is 27 degrees Celsius, which is close to the equator.
01:48It's a bit hot for me.
01:50This is a multinational country where Malaysian, Chinese and Indian people live.
01:57It used to be a British colony, so English is used as a second language.
02:04That's how Singapore is.
02:06Last year's GDP rose by about 5% in the first half of the year.
02:10This is amazing.
02:11Companies from all over the world are paying attention to the growing market.
02:17This is the office building of the capital, Kuala Lumpur.
02:23This is where the prisoners work.
02:34This is Fujii Akinori, the general manager of a Japanese IT company.
02:39He's been a prisoner for a year.
02:42He's been in charge of business in Japan for four years.
02:46Then he became a prisoner himself.
02:50He was deported to Malaysia a year ago.
02:54The Malaysian company has been in business for 10 years.
02:58It has 21 employees and 17 engineers.
03:07Fujii is working on DX for various clients as a sales manager.
03:18Japanese pop culture helps him communicate with local staff.
03:25J-pop was very popular in Malaysia around 2000.
03:36The song is playing.
03:38Everyone loves J-pop.
03:43He's singing in high pitch.
03:45He's really nice.
03:52Let's give him a round of applause.
03:54He's really good at communicating.
04:00Okay, everyone.
04:02One, two, three, four.
04:04He's really good.
04:06I'm really happy about that.
04:09Japanese culture.
04:11We can talk about common topics.
04:18Fujii leaves the office and heads to his favorite place.
04:22I have to go to the dentist in two minutes.
04:26Dentist?
04:27Yes, I have to go to the dentist.
04:29The price is already set.
04:34Oh, the price is already set.
04:37He uses the dentist service for everything.
04:45How much is this?
04:48It's 26 ringgit.
04:51It's about 800 yen in Japanese yen.
04:56It takes about 25 to 30 minutes.
04:59If you use the same taxi in Tokyo, it's about 4000 yen.
05:06In Malaysia, it's about one-fifth of that.
05:09By the way, the train is one ringgit per section.
05:13It's about 33 yen in Japanese yen.
05:18It's about one-fifth of the price of the first ride on the Yamanote Line.
05:22Public transportation is cheap, too.
05:28Fujii visits a Japanese company.
05:33Good morning.
05:35We're a manufacturing company.
05:41We're still working on the management system.
05:46We need your help.
05:49This is also about inventory management.
05:53It's about who gets how many inventory at what time.
05:59If you make a mistake, it can cause a human error.
06:03Human error.
06:04There are still many companies in Malaysia that record inventory and order management on paper.
06:12Fujii's company has proposed a system to digitize such records and make it more efficient.
06:21We're developing a tool that allows you to easily use Excel notes on a tablet.
06:29We're developing electronic notes.
06:32We're developing electronic notes.
06:35You can print them and store them by hand.
06:40You can do it just by bringing a tablet to the site.
06:44It's a Malaysian company that's steadily growing, but it seems to have some challenges.
06:50It's about half the number of transactions.
06:54Japanese companies have a lot of sales.
06:58We need to get long-term support from Malaysian companies and local companies.
07:16I'm going to buy lunch now.
07:21Lunch is served at a stall near the office.
07:25It looks delicious.
07:26It's a staple lunch spot that supports the stomachs of businessmen in Kuala Lumpur.
07:31It looks delicious.
07:35What is this?
07:37It's kueh teow.
07:39It's like flat noodles.
07:44It's delicious.
07:46It's Malaysian style.
07:48It looks like pad thai.
07:53I'm glad that I can eat lunch at a cheap price.
07:58It's 270 yen.
08:00It's 500 yen.
08:02It's expensive.
08:08How do you get paid?
08:11It's converted into an hourly rate.
08:14It's paid as a Malaysian ringgit.
08:21It's cheap, so it's a ringgit.
08:27It's cheap, so it's a ringgit.
08:32It seems that the life of a middle-class person is not easy.
08:35That's right.
08:38Mr. Fujii, who aims to develop new customers, has a big business chance.
08:45I'm going to participate in the Malaysian Technology Expo for three days.
08:52My goal this time is to win the lead of 100 companies.
08:59The Malaysian Technology Expo is a place where various tech companies, including drones, agricultural machines, and latest apps, appeal to their products and services.
09:21It's a big investment for Mr. Fujii to participate in a large event where more than 2,000 people are expected to participate.
09:37Good morning.
09:39Good morning.
09:41It's big.
09:42I think our staff is getting ready.
09:46In the field of IT, various countries are building their bases in Malaysia.
09:54The Malaysian government has been setting up economic talks to promote IT companies.
10:03The Malaysian government has been setting up economic talks to promote overseas IT companies for more than 20 years.
10:12Microsoft and Google are planning to set up data centers in Malaysia.
10:21I think there will be a demand and a need for the app.
10:26I think there will be a flow, but I think there will be a chance.
10:3120 minutes after the event started.
10:35There are already a lot of clients at the booth.
10:39I thought so.
10:41Huh?
10:42Ah, intern.
10:44I'm lonely.
10:46Huh?
10:47What's wrong?
10:48Today is Steven Nazhan's intern.
10:50Rafi.
10:51Rafi?
10:53Is this the booth?
10:54There are no people, so I'll just check.
10:58There are no people.
10:59What's going on?
11:01Three staff members are late.
11:05It's a big deal, isn't it?
11:06While the surrounding booths were in full swing, Mr. Fujii's company was completely late.
11:12It's no good at all.
11:13Huh?
11:14Can you make up for it?
11:16Do your best.
11:19It's late.
11:26Everyone, listen to me.
11:28There was a guy in front of the traffic jam and a guy in front of the hall.
11:33The person in charge of the expo came early.
11:37I think they're going to make a lot of things.
11:41He's going to be angry.
11:43You're kind.
11:45Rafi, Mr. Nazhan.
11:46Hi.
11:47Hi.
11:49Steven.
11:51Excuse me.
11:53Morning.
11:55Morning.
11:56You didn't do anything.
11:57That's right.
11:58I'm sorry I'm late.
11:59Okay, okay, okay.
12:00I apologized properly.
12:03I wonder why I was late.
12:07More than 30 minutes have passed since the event began and everyone has finally gathered.
12:13The concept of time may be a little loose.
12:17But the other booths are ready.
12:19The second day of the expo.
12:27It's empty.
12:30There's nothing in there.
12:32It's different from yesterday.
12:35There's no one here.
12:37Very less people.
12:40Spring.
12:41It's a prayer.
12:42Oh, it's a prayer.
12:44Oh, it's a prayer.
12:47It's completely different.
12:48It's culture.
12:49It's different.
12:50That's right.
12:51In Malaysia, there are more than half of the population of Muslims.
12:57Every Friday, they go to the mosque to pray.
13:04The mosque is far from here.
13:09Steven said there are times when people don't come back.
13:16But I don't know.
13:20It's a miscalculation.
13:23Friday is not very event-oriented.
13:26I realized that a year ago.
13:30Mr. Fujii desperately appeals to the vast audience.
13:35Because I like someone who is Japanese.
13:37I'm Japanese.
13:38I'm from Malaysia.
13:39But I work in Malaysia.
13:42You're doing more on IoT and then...
13:44This is the heart center.
13:46They recognize the image.
13:49This is the action one.
13:51So he's already driving, but he already takes his thing.
13:55So here, we are called.
13:57So action is on call.
14:00But it's hard to get a consultation.
14:03That's right.
14:06I don't like this.
14:07It's kind of creepy around here.
14:11And the last day.
14:15We asked Steven, who was in charge of the booth.
14:20How about today?
14:22Zero.
14:23What?
14:24Zero.
14:25Really?
14:27Zero.
14:28Oh my god.
14:29First day is 14.
14:31Then yesterday is 11.
14:32So total is 35.
14:35I think the scariest thing happened.
14:39No one came.
14:44The 100 cars that were his goal
14:46didn't make it at all.
14:49I see.
14:511 out of 4.
14:5225 cars.
14:5325 cars.
14:58He's out of breath.
15:00I'm out of breath.
15:01I'm out of breath.
15:03He was waiting for Mr. Fujii, who came back from his first day.
15:11I'm home.
15:13The volume is a bit low.
15:17It's a nice house.
15:18Right?
15:21He's so cute.
15:23I wonder if he can work hard.
15:25That's right.
15:26Because he has his mom.
15:29Hello.
15:30Hello.
15:31What's your name?
15:32I'm Fujii.
15:33I'm Kotohata.
15:34I'm Okazuki.
15:36I'm Okazuki.
15:39I'm Yuu.
15:40I'm Yuu.
15:43These are his two children and his wife, Kazumi.
15:46Kazumi.
15:47She's supporting him.
15:48She's supporting him.
15:52And Mr. Fujii showed them around.
15:56It's quite impressive.
15:58It's amazing.
15:59When I was in Japan, it was on the second floor.
16:02I could only see the convenience store next to it.
16:06I feel like I'm seeing the night view for the first time in my life.
16:10I see.
16:11It's amazing.
16:13I feel like I've grown up a little.
16:19I don't want people to get mad at me.
16:21But I like it.
16:23The night view of Kuala Lumpur from the veranda.
16:29This room is 3LDK.
16:31It's about 110 square meters.
16:34110 square meters?
16:35The rent is about 130,000 yen in Japanese yen.
16:39130,000 yen?
16:41If you want to rent a room of the same size in Tokyo,
16:45it's about 680,000 yen.
16:47680,000 yen is impossible.
16:48It's more than five times that.
16:52And the shopping mall is right next to the apartment.
16:55It's super convenient.
16:58From convenience stores to pharmacies and Japanese pharmacies,
17:03it's all done in the same facility.
17:05It's so convenient.
17:08And the pool is built, so you can use it for free.
17:12It's very attractive.
17:14There are a lot of cardboard boxes, right?
17:18Yes.
17:19Actually, we moved here about four days ago.
17:26Actually, a month ago,
17:28the owner asked us to sell the room and move out.
17:32So we moved out of the blue.
17:37They're in trouble as soon as they moved in.
17:41Stop it.
17:42It won't turn on.
17:44What's wrong?
17:46It's not working.
17:47It's not working.
17:49It won't turn on.
17:51It won't turn on.
17:52This is a problem.
17:55This is...
17:57In the bathroom...
17:59It's a strange bathtub.
18:02I heard you can store your bath water, but I can't.
18:07The water drips as I store it.
18:10And...
18:12No way.
18:14Where's the key?
18:15It's in the bedroom.
18:16The bedroom is this way?
18:18It's locked.
18:19It won't open when I close it.
18:21I don't like this.
18:23Why?
18:24It's going to be a mess.
18:26I know.
18:28The door lock closes on its own.
18:36I thought I was going to die.
18:38I don't want to.
18:40Everyone says the same thing,
18:42but when I see this,
18:44I'm like,
18:45Oh, welcome to Malaysia.
18:48Let's eat.
18:49Let's eat.
18:51Let's eat.
18:52This is cabbage steak.
18:54I love it.
18:57I love cabbage steak.
18:59How much is half a cabbage?
19:01About 20?
19:02About 28.
19:04That's expensive.
19:06It's about 250 yen.
19:09By the way,
19:10at the Malaysian supermarket,
19:13there's a sign that says non-halal.
19:17Here,
19:18they sell pork and alcohol
19:20that you can't eat
19:22because of the Islamic law.
19:24I see.
19:25That's nice.
19:26By making a shop
19:28away from other products,
19:30it's an environment where
19:32many people can shop.
19:34It's a unique way of doing business.
19:38Are you having fun at school?
19:40Yes.
19:41Are you satisfied with school?
19:43Yes.
19:44It's been a year since I came to Malaysia.
19:47That's good.
19:48As a parent,
19:49that's the best thing.
19:51I'm relieved.
19:54He's so cheerful.
19:56I'm grateful to my children.
20:01Mr. Fujii has a fulfilling life
20:03with his family.
20:07But there's someone
20:09who wants to become a refugee.
20:13My father gave me a chance
20:16to work abroad.
20:20He used to work as a refugee.
20:25I used to live abroad for 5 years
20:28when I was a kid.
20:31If he hadn't done that,
20:33I wouldn't have been interested
20:35in going abroad.
20:37What does he do now?
20:40I wanted to tell him
20:42that he's working abroad
20:44even though he passed away.
20:48But I couldn't tell him.
20:50Good luck!
20:52I regret it.
20:55I want to see him now.
20:57I know.
20:59I don't know what to say.
21:01But...
21:04I'm sure he'll be happy.
21:06Yes, he will.
21:10If he's happy,
21:12I'll be happy, too.
21:15Yes.
21:18He can't end it like this.
21:20I know.
21:22I'll do my best.
21:26I'll see you at the station.
21:28It's been about 2 hours.
21:30Yes.
21:31I missed the lottery once.
21:34I don't have time to carry it.
21:38I'm worried about the other members
21:41and how depressed I am.
21:43I'm worried.
21:45But it's okay.
21:48Mr. Fujii decides to take the next step.
21:52On Wednesday,
21:56I'll attend a business meeting
21:58in Japan.
22:01I might find a partner
22:03or a customer.
22:07He decided to attend a business meeting
22:09to make up for his failure
22:11at the Expo.
22:17My goal is
22:19to get the next appointment
22:21on the spot.
22:24I'm very nervous,
22:27but I'll do my best.
22:30Will he get the result this time?
22:37Mr. Fujii is
22:40very warm
22:43and kind.
22:45He must be stressed.
22:47I'm sure he is.
22:49When he's stressed,
22:51Mr. Gensei,
22:53Kotora,
22:55and Mr. Kazumi
22:57smile at him.
22:59I'll do my best tomorrow, too.
23:01I think so, too.
23:03But I'll pray on Friday.
23:05See you in Malaysia.
23:07Tuesday in the World
23:11A shopping mall
23:13in the center of Kuala Lumpur.
23:17This is a Japanese-style
23:19household appliance
23:21that has been in business
23:23for three years.
23:25The Japanese staff
23:27who work here
23:29is another star.
23:31Thank you. Have a good day.
23:35Ms. Yui Inage
23:37is an operation manager
23:39who trains employees.
23:41She's only been here
23:43for three months.
23:45My hobby is traveling around the world.
23:47Ms. Inage is 26 years old
23:49in Japan.
23:51I want to do it.
23:53You can do it.
23:55She sells 1.8 million yen
23:57a day.
23:59She's the best salesperson
24:01in the store.
24:03Her achievements have changed
24:05and she was appointed as a staff member.
24:07I'm a human being.
24:09You want it, don't you?
24:11I went to the store
24:13and asked if Mr. Hayashi was there.
24:15He said he'd be there tomorrow.
24:17I said,
24:19okay, I'll go tomorrow.
24:21Ms. Inage
24:23works at this store.
24:25Mr. Manager.
24:27Mr. Manager.
24:29Ayuni.
24:31Mr. Ayuni.
24:33I'm Ayuni.
24:35There are 10 Malaysian staff
24:37under the manager.
24:39I'm Nishimura-chan.
24:41There's only one
24:43Japanese staff member,
24:45Ms. Inage.
24:47Ms. Hsu here
24:49is the only staff member
24:51who can speak Japanese.
24:53To use the steam,
24:55the temperature has to be
24:57one degree or higher
24:59to be able to speak Japanese.
25:01She's so good.
25:03Her Japanese is amazing.
25:05She learned Japanese
25:07from Japanese anime
25:09and is able to speak it now.
25:11Three months ago,
25:13Ms. Inage was sent to Malaysia.
25:15Since the store opened,
25:17this store has been facing a challenge.
25:21What is it?
25:23Is it about time?
25:25It's about training the staff
25:27and giving them advice
25:29on how to make customers
25:31happy.
25:33It's about communication skills.
25:35It's about improving
25:37the staff's communication skills.
25:41Looking for some games?
25:45Can I help something?
25:47They're looking for something.
25:49Hello.
25:51Do you want to try?
25:53You can try everywhere.
25:55Everything.
25:57Ms. Inage is actively
25:59talking to the customers.
26:03The local staff
26:05is in a bad mood.
26:09That's a challenge.
26:13There are many shy people.
26:17It's not that she's not motivated.
26:19In Malaysia,
26:21she didn't have the habit
26:23to talk to the customers.
26:25That's the reason.
26:27There's no culture.
26:29Are the customers leaving?
26:31Are they leaving?
26:33The Japanese-style
26:35communication skills
26:37that this company values
26:39are being used by the local staff
26:41to improve sales.
26:43That's Ms. Inage's
26:45mission.
26:47Hello.
26:49Where are you from?
26:51What's your TV?
26:53I'm watching TV.
26:55I'm with the customers.
26:57We need to talk.
26:59Are you okay?
27:01What should I say?
27:03You're already uploaded?
27:05Let's do our best.
27:09Ms. Inage
27:11is trying hard
27:13to make her work
27:15a model for the local staff.
27:17I can't reach it.
27:19She can't get used to
27:21the local system.
27:23I can't do it anymore.
27:25I give up.
27:27I don't know.
27:29The Japanese B1 employees
27:31are having a hard time
27:33in the new environment.
27:35And she was confused
27:37about the difference in culture.
27:39That's right.
27:41Do you have a number?
27:43No, I don't.
27:45If you have a problem,
27:47please call me or text me.
27:49I can help you.
27:53In order to answer
27:55the customers' questions,
27:57it's common to exchange numbers
27:59in Malaysia.
28:03Welcome to Malaysia.
28:05Check.
28:07This is hard.
28:09What does she check?
28:11Check.
28:13It's too much.
28:15It's a bit.
28:17I like that.
28:19She checks
28:21if the power is on.
28:23I see.
28:25Sometimes customers ask
28:27to check the power
28:29on the spot.
28:33I'm sweating.
28:35I'm a new employee.
28:37I'm a new employee.
28:39I'm a new employee, so I'm used to it.
28:42And the difference from Japan is in the products.
28:46Air fryer.
28:49I don't know anything about air fryers in Japan.
28:54I only know that they're a must in Malaysia.
28:56Is this deep-fried food?
28:58This is Uresuji's No. 1 non-oil fryer.
29:02It's a kitchen product that can be deep-fried without using oil.
29:07If you put it in here, you can easily deep-fry it.
29:12You can also make crispy pies with it.
29:18In Malaysia, health concerns have increased in recent years,
29:22and more and more people are trying to find ways to cook.
29:29This is an oil steamer.
29:32You put water in the tank here,
29:37put it in here, and stretch it out.
29:41The steam comes out from here?
29:42Yes, the steam comes out from this hole.
29:45From here, like this, you stretch it out.
29:50It's like this.
29:52I see.
29:53Yes.
29:54Because Japan and Uresuji are different manufacturers,
29:59you have to learn about their products from scratch.
30:04You need a high-quality steam iron, right?
30:08That's a little...
30:09It doesn't matter, right?
30:10It's not that it doesn't matter, but it's a little rude.
30:13That's right.
30:15Everyone is having lunch right now.
30:18Lunch?
30:18Yes, they're having lunch.
30:20You can eat lunch here.
30:23It's lunch time right now.
30:24Yes.
30:24It's noodles.
30:27Onigiri?
30:28Is it onigiri?
30:29Yes, it's onigiri.
30:30Onigiri?
30:32It's good.
30:33Do you eat onigiri often?
30:34Do you usually eat onigiri?
30:36Yes, I usually eat onigiri for lunch.
30:38He eats it often.
30:39I buy it from Family Mart.
30:41Family Mart?
30:42Family Mart.
30:43Right now, I'm eating Chuka Itako flavor.
30:45Chuka Itako?
30:46Chuka Itako.
30:47He's eating Chuka Itako-flavored onigiri.
30:50He's eating octopus-flavored onigiri.
30:52There's such a thing?
30:54In Malaysia, Japanese convenience store onigiri is very popular right now.
31:01Chuka Itako.
31:04Zarigani.
31:06Zarigani?
31:07It's a familiar ingredient in Japan.
31:10Oh, that's good.
31:11In Japan, you can only find oden in winter.
31:14They sell it all year round.
31:16The spicy Tom Yum flavor is a trend among young people.
31:21Mr. Yu, this is for you.
31:27Inage is always trying to communicate with the local staff during breaks.
31:32Let's ask what they think.
31:38She has a leadership personality, and it's good to be friends with her.
31:44She's always giving her all to serve the customers.
31:50I think that's really great.
31:57In fact, this store has the largest number of customers since its opening three days later.
32:04Expo?
32:06No, no, no.
32:08Actually, I think it's about our target for this weekend.
32:11Yeah, yeah.
32:12For the event.
32:13For the first time, right?
32:16Yeah, that is very important.
32:19So, one day, we're going to do 35,000 yen.
32:23Is it okay?
32:2435,000 yen?
32:25For our event.
32:27Yeah.
32:29This is their first large-scale event, and they're trying to get new customers.
32:35They're trying to boost their sales.
32:40Is it a little higher than usual?
32:43Yes, it's basically a little higher.
32:48Their daily sales target is 1.5 times that of usual.
32:531.5 times 35,000 yen.
32:55That's about 1.2 million yen in Japanese yen.
33:00The key to success is whether or not all the staff can serve the customers.
33:07That's what Inage-san says.
33:11Hyu-san, who can speak Japanese, is training to sell real yen.
33:16Hyu-san!
33:17Hyu-chan!
33:18Hyu-chan!
33:19I'm going to have you do the straight daiso iron.
33:23Please.
33:25Hyu.
33:26Hyu-chan.
33:27It's easy to connect to the sales, and it's essential to achieve your goal.
33:36Inage-san has been teaching with a man-to-man.
33:39He's so polite.
33:43Wow.
33:44Hyu is pretty active with the customers, but...
33:51He's going to go first.
33:52It's easy to tell who's going to ride and who's not.
33:55He's got his own way.
33:56He's got his own way.
33:57Today's goal is...
34:01Tenkei.
34:02What?
34:03Minamabu Tenkei.
34:05That's what Hyu-san said.
34:06I said that to Sean, too.
34:07But Sean said he was going to do it.
34:09That's...
34:10It's a high goal.
34:12Is Hyu-san going to be okay?
34:15I know how Hyu-san feels.
34:16If I were in the same workplace as him, I'd ask Inage-san to do it.
34:20You'd ask him to do it.
34:21I'd ask him to do it.
34:22And I'd want to be scolded somewhere.
34:27Will he be able to achieve his sales goal?
34:30I don't know. I think he'll be able to.
34:33Inage-san is done with work.
34:36I'm home.
34:38I'm home.
34:40It's a nice place again.
34:43It took him three minutes to get from his workplace to his home.
34:48It's in the middle of nowhere.
34:50What a nice entrance.
34:53It's Mom.
34:55I'm home.
34:59His two-year-old son, Rui-kun, was waiting for him to come home.
35:04Inage-san is actually a single mother.
35:07He moved to Malaysia with his mother, Chikage-san.
35:12Did your mom ask you to come?
35:14I live with my mom.
35:19Let's go.
35:20I'm home.
35:21Here's your drink.
35:23I'm so relieved.
35:26It's the best.
35:27His mom is so nice.
35:30He's such a good boy.
35:35Open your mouth wide.
35:38That's good, Rui.
35:44It's good.
35:47It's good.
35:50He said it was hot.
35:53Isn't it hot over there?
35:56Good boy.
35:58Good job.
36:01Mom's shirt is so cool.
36:03I want it.
36:05I'm so happy.
36:06It's so good.
36:08I'm so happy.
36:09It's so good.
36:11The meal and beer after work are the best.
36:20This beer helps him get through the day.
36:25One bottle costs 530 yen.
36:27That's a lot.
36:28It's twice as much as the price in Japan.
36:30It's because it's imported.
36:32In Malaysia, where there are a lot of Muslims,
36:34alcohol is strictly prohibited and the price is set high.
36:41It's so good.
36:44It's the best.
36:45We're going to pay a little more.
36:47Inage-san, one-fourth of his living expenses is spent on alcohol.
36:54What does his mother, Chikage-san, think of Inage-san?
37:00He's so cool.
37:02He decided to go overseas by himself.
37:06I think that's how he was able to express himself.
37:15Since then, he's been very active.
37:20When Inage-san was 24 years old,
37:22he quit his current job and went to study in Australia.
37:26He can speak English.
37:28After returning to Japan, he wanted to get a job where he could make use of his language skills.
37:34That's what he wanted to do.
37:36I see.
37:37I thought it would be hard for him to work all by himself in a foreign country.
37:44I've helped him a lot since he was a baby.
37:48I've been taking care of him.
37:53Now, he has Chikage-san's support.
37:57Inage-san is supporting his family by focusing on his work.
38:08Let's go.
38:09Let's go.
38:11Good morning.
38:15Before he went to work, he took Rui-kun to a two-minute walk from home.
38:21I see.
38:23Good morning, Rui-kun.
38:27He's so cute.
38:28This kindergarten is an international school.
38:31All the conversations are in English.
38:33You can speak English, Rui-kun.
38:36There are special English lessons.
38:39It's popular among middle-aged people who want to make English bilingual.
38:46Inage-san, good luck with your work today.
38:54Inage-san, you're tough.
38:57You're strong.
38:58I'm really strong.
39:01My mom is here, too.
39:03Your mom must be big.
39:05I want the shirt my mom wore.
39:08Is she from Malaysia?
39:10No, she's from Japan.
39:11She's from Osaka, right?
39:13You're right.
39:15I'm from Osaka.
39:22Inage-san, who's been living in Japan for three months, is still worried.
39:28I think there are a lot of middle-aged Japanese in Malaysia.
39:33If I have time, I'd like to ask them about small things.
39:39That's a good idea.
39:42So, the senior middle-aged people have gathered here.
39:47Akachochi, I'm so happy.
39:50This is a popular izakaya where Japanese middle-aged people gather.
39:55This is the peak of my life.
39:57The first step.
39:59Good morning.
40:01Isn't it nice?
40:03Fujii-san is here, too.
40:05The members are four people who work in construction and bookstores.
40:14The first topic is good things about Malaysia.
40:19Anyway, B-class gourmet food is delicious.
40:22That's right.
40:24What do you like best?
40:25Of course, Bak Kut Teh.
40:28I love Bak Kut Teh.
40:30There are a lot of cheap and delicious things.
40:35You can get full with 200 yen or 300 yen.
40:38I'm glad I came here.
40:41I'd like to ask you if you have this.
40:44I have a child at home.
40:46Even if I cry or shout, no one complains.
40:49You're kind to your child.
40:51I'm kind to my child.
40:53You're really kind.
40:54When I go to the hospital, the children of the hospital staff are sleeping behind me.
41:01That's good.
41:02The patient comforts the child.
41:08It's amazing.
41:10You're kind to your child.
41:12You're really kind to your child.
41:17Local food is the most expensive.
41:19There is an opinion that the environment is kind to children.
41:23On the other hand.
41:24What is it?
41:25As promised, no one is here.
41:28There is no time.
41:30That's true.
41:31It's the schedule of the meeting.
41:34That's unusual.
41:36The escalator doesn't work.
41:42That's unusual.
41:44The escalator doesn't work.
41:46It doesn't work.
41:47When I'm busy in the morning, I often dye my hair.
41:51When it comes to animals.
41:53There are many monkeys.
41:56There are many monkeys.
41:57There are many monkeys.
41:59When monkeys go to the golf course, they take their wallets from the cart.
42:06The monkey problem at the golf course is serious.
42:09They take all the water bottles.
42:13There was a big alligator under our apartment.
42:16A big alligator?
42:18There was an alligator.
42:20Where is it?
42:21It's a car in Litva.
42:24Really?
42:25Really?
42:27It may be the pleasure of the staff to experience the difference in culture and environment.
42:34May I?
42:35I don't know the surroundings yet.
42:38I want to buy a ticket.
42:43If you are caught by the police for speeding, you will get a ticket.
42:49We have a half-price sale twice or thrice a year.
42:55I know that.
42:57Do you get a discount from the government?
42:59Yes, we get a discount.
43:01At that time, the staff of our apartment said,
43:04We have a half-price sale, so if you have a ticket now, it's now.
43:08Don't people pay for it?
43:11They are waiting for it.
43:15I think so.
43:17Now, let's talk about the children's education.
43:23I think English is good.
43:24By the way, he is still 2 years old.
43:27He is 8 months old.
43:28He is in kindergarten now.
43:31When he grows up, he will be an elementary school student or a junior high school student.
43:36What do you think of Malaysia?
43:40In Malaysia, there are many options to study abroad.
43:48There are many international schools.
43:51The price is not so expensive.
43:54If it's cheap, it's expensive.
43:56What's the difference?
43:58In Malaysia, there are cases where teachers can speak English,
44:02and there are cases where English teachers can speak English.
44:06It's common to hire English teachers.
44:10In addition,
44:12Is there a swimming school?
44:14Yes, there is.
44:15My daughter comes to my house.
44:19My daughter is swimming, and she comes to my house.
44:23She is like a swimming teacher.
44:25She comes to my house.
44:26She comes to my house because she likes Malaysia.
44:29She comes to my house because she likes Malaysia.
44:32There are many things to learn.
44:35Of course, there are many things to learn about Japanese.
44:39That's right. There are many things to learn about Malaysia.
44:41There are many things to learn about Malaysia.
44:43Of course, we also have a music class.
44:48Mr. Izuchi is a musical instrument maker.
44:51He is famous.
44:52He moved to Malaysia more than 50 years ago and opened a music class.
44:59One, two, three, go.
45:03In addition, he signed a contract with the Malaysian government
45:06and opened a music class to support music classes
45:09to support music classes
45:12such as providing musical instruments and hiring teachers
45:15for public elementary schools around the country.
45:20In Malaysia, the income is increasing,
45:23and the number of intermediate earners is increasing.
45:25We want those people to enjoy music through our program.
45:30Music is good.
45:32I am a junior high school student.
45:34I'm in the junior high school.
45:36I'm going to work hard.
45:38She is amazing.
45:39OK, thank you.
45:42The last theme is creating a community for intermediate earners.
45:46The gap between intermediate earners is not wide yet.
45:51How do you guys get along with each other?
45:58I'm the leader of a rugby team run by a Japanese resident.
46:06When I join a club like that, I get to know a lot of different companies.
46:14I'm also a rugby player.
46:18When I join a club like that, I get a chance to do business.
46:26One of my friends wants to open a shop in Cambodia.
46:34I thought it would be a good idea to meet him.
46:37So in April of this year, I opened a shop in Cambodia.
46:43I've heard that this type of community is connected to each other.
46:47That's true.
46:49I'd be happy if you could tell me more about it.
46:53Thank you!
46:59Tetsu has failed miserably.
47:02What?
47:03Zero.
47:04Seriously?
47:07Tetsu doesn't give up.
47:09Fujii decided to participate in a business meeting to open a new business deal.
47:16That's nice.
47:19There are already active exchanges between companies in the venue.
47:27Fujii's colleague, who was late for the Expo, also actively approached him.
47:32I'm glad.
47:34I'm late, Steve.
47:35Steve.
47:37However...
47:40Fujii is confused.
47:47What's going on?
47:48Is he looking at me?
47:50It's like...
47:52I'm in Japan, but he's looking at me and asking me where I live.
47:57In an important moment, he was pulled in.
48:01I'm fine.
48:02Furthermore...
48:05Oh, what's up?
48:06Okay, I'll call you later.
48:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.
48:08She's got your number already.
48:09Okay, thank you.
48:11What's going on?
48:12What?
48:13What did he say?
48:16I really couldn't understand what he said.
48:18What?
48:20Is it because of his unique accent that he couldn't understand what the other person said?
48:26Fujii!
48:30Please forgive me!
48:32Oh...
48:33What would his father think if he saw him like this?
48:38He'd say, it's normal.
48:40If his father saw me like this...
48:43Yeah...
48:45I don't know what to say.
48:47Well, but...
48:50I think he'd be happy.
48:52Probably.
48:54He can't go home empty-handed.
48:59I'm just not used to it.
49:01I have to do something.
49:04And then...
49:32I already understood. No worries.
49:34So your company handles the blockchain, right?
49:37Yes, actually we provide infrastructure.
49:39What does infrastructure mean?
49:41For example, you're an IT solution provider.
49:45Well, our company also...
49:47The search company...
49:52Who can contact the alliance in Malaysia.
49:58Oh, sure!
49:59We'd be happy to, because actually we are also looking for a partner.
50:02Where they can build a solution for us.
50:05We can help to expand the market in Malaysia.
50:09Surprisingly, this woman was also looking for an IT company to partner with.
50:16And then Fujii...
50:19Okay, so how to collaborate with our solution?
50:25I want to know the more details.
50:27So if you have time, could you please arrange the next appointment for now?
50:32Sure, sure.
50:33Maybe I can arrange it by next week.
50:35Next week? Okay.
50:36Oh, thanks.
50:38Then I'm happy to connect with you.
50:40Then maybe I can reach out to you.
50:43Thank you very much.
50:44Okay, thank you very much.
50:45See you next time.
50:46See you next week.
50:50I'm glad.
50:52Somehow.
50:54I'm glad.
50:57I'm relieved.
51:00Fujii has found a way to expand his business.
51:04I'm glad.
51:08What is his ambition as a user?
51:13My long-term goal is...
51:16My long-term goal is...
51:19I want to tell the world that the quality of Japan and the hospitality that Japanese people value are going to be popular all over the world.
51:31My short-term goal is...
51:33I want to be the president of this company in Malaysia.
51:41I want to drink with Fujii.
51:46I hope the results will be good.
51:49She has a high goal and is serious.
51:51I think she's the kind of person who can do her job well.
51:53I want her to do her best.
51:55Tuesday in the world.
51:58And the day of the event of a home appliance store that Inage works at.
52:05She rents a corner of a shopping mall and promotes the store.
52:11She also invites salespersons from six manufacturers to sell various products.
52:19The sales target for a day is set to 1.5 times the normal price, which is about 1.2 million yen in Japanese yen.
52:33Inage tells the staff what they need to do to achieve this goal.
52:41I wonder if it will be delivered.
53:02I need a customer to choose what I want to buy.
53:06Please call me.
53:08Please choose me.
53:10I need to create a new customer.
53:13A kind of our fan.
53:17Can you do it?
53:18Yes.
53:19Can you do it?
53:20Christina, come in.
53:22She also invites the store's security guard.
53:25Yes, we can.
53:28This is the original spirit of this store.
53:31Can we do it?
53:32Yes.
53:33Yes, we can.
53:34Nojima Club.
53:35OK.
53:36Yes.
53:47It's finally time to open.
53:50An hour from the opening.
53:52Let's take a look at the event venue.
53:56How is it?
53:57It's OK.
53:58How is it?
53:59There are many customers.
54:00There are many customers.
54:01It's a little crowded.
54:02It's a little crowded.
54:04It's morning, so there are few customers.
54:11In the afternoon, there are many customers.
54:17The sales are good, mainly because they don't usually handle shingles.
54:23On the other hand, in the store...
54:27Inage-san is very persistent.
54:30All the staff are working hard to serve customers.
54:33Everyone is doing a great job.
54:35Everyone is doing a great job.
54:36That's amazing.
54:38Hyu is doing his best.
54:40And Hyu-san, who Inage-san is keeping an eye on.
54:47I'm glad.
54:48I want a house.
54:50I want a house.
54:51So, which one do you recommend?
54:53So, which one do you recommend?
54:54So, which one do you recommend?
54:55Do you want to buy this?
54:56Do you want to buy this?
54:57That's right.
55:00Thank you very much.
55:03The staff here...
55:06They exchange phone numbers and build a relationship with customers.
55:14Cute.
55:16Are you a customer?
55:17Are you a customer?
55:18Really?
55:21Yeah, nice, nice.
55:24The staff here...
55:29After selling a cell phone for 170,000 yen, they take a commemorative photo of the product and the customer.
55:40Today?
55:46I'm waiting for Yui-san to come.
55:49On this day, she sold four cell phones for 700,000 yen and became a top seller.
55:55That's amazing.
55:57Congratulations.
55:58Thank you so much.
55:59Do you have time now?
56:00What is it?
56:02I heard from Ayuni that you actually sat down and did it.
56:07And then you connected it.
56:10The foreigner?
56:11That's right.
56:12The one with the kids.
56:15The foreigner?
56:16That's right.
56:17Kyu-san successfully sold a high-priced product that he trained with Inage-san.
56:25I'm so happy.
56:26Aren't you happy to do it yourself?
56:28I guess so.
56:31You're happy, right?
56:32I'm happy to be rewarded for my efforts.
56:37You're happy, right?
56:38Yeah.
56:39Yeah.
56:40I'm embarrassed.
56:41Kyu-kun is embarrassed.
56:43I'm happy.
56:44You're happy, right?
56:45Yeah, I'm happy.
56:47Because men are basically cold-blooded.
56:50Their speech is cold-blooded.
56:54Wait a minute.
56:57At 9 p.m., Inage-san and her co-workers finished their last spurt in the last hour of their business hours.
57:04They ran without holding back their smiles until the end.
57:11And then...
57:12The result looks good, doesn't it?
57:15How much did they sell?
57:18How much did they sell?
57:22One thousand...
57:23One hundred?
57:24One hundred.
57:25One hundred?
57:26Yeah, one hundred.
57:28They sold 3.4 million yen, which is about three times their goal.
57:34It's a little more than I imagined.
57:36More than you imagined.
57:38I hope they continue to aggressive to the customer.
57:42What did Inage-san realize in her part-time job?
57:47I brought my kids and my younger son to work here.
57:52Now I can finally see a lot of challenges.
57:59I want to communicate more with everyone and do better.
58:07I'm really looking forward to the future.
58:12Inage-san is amazing.
58:14How do you feel about working abroad?
58:17I think she can go anywhere.
58:22She's spreading the good points of Japanese people.
58:28It's a great thing.
58:29It's a great thing.
58:30Iyo-san is working in Malaysia.
58:32It's a very good thing.
58:34How do you speak?
58:35I can speak a lot of languages.
58:38I played Lady Gaga in Chile once in English.
58:44I was very happy.
58:46When I heard Lady Gaga, I thought she was amazing.
58:49Lady Gaga is amazing.
58:52Lady Gaga is amazing.
