What does he mean by that?

Mr. Hyuga?
President Hyuga?
He's not here
President?
What the hell are you doing?
What is it?
He's back
He's back in Japan
Hello
Hyuga, you're playing with
the e-mail auto-reply software
I'm buying India's Power Trunk
What? .. that Cloud Company?
They're selling for
900 M dollars, let's buy
We can't let go of our cash right now
It's fine
You two guys are both against me
Of course
You should listen to me
Asahina laughed, it means it's OK
Damn
I acquired Power Trunk ...
What's the response?
Excellent response
Good morning, my name is Yasuoka
Data gathering right now ...
Network India?
They're impatient
One more point
What?
Who are you?
I'm Yasuoka
President Hyuga I know you don't remember
people you have no interest in
I know that but still I'm your ...
I remember you
It's the 12th time you smile to me
Hyuga ... Mr. Hyuga
- Please .. please
- Enough now
Welcome, welcome ... too close
There are very few places like this in Japan
A company offering state-of-the-art design
Looking for a job, IT venture number one
A plethora of excellent engineers and beauties
Yes, we are a Japanese companies that cares
A Stock market value of 3 billion Dollars
.. NEXT INNOVATION
The company under the spotlights of Japan
Let's give you a tour of
NEXT INNOVATION company
Could these be oxygen capsules?
The gym
Next the fan room
The cafeteria
The study lounge
On the roof terrace the Green Oasis
A veggie garden? ..
You'll find anything in this company
Far too innovative
Toru Hyuga has a personal capital
of 2.5 B dollars at the age of 29
If you convert this into a regular salary,
Mr. Hyuga earns 60,000 dollars/hour
Each team supervisor comes in person
for a presentation of each project
I thought so
That monitor behind
displays the sales of each team
For the kids on summer vacation
It's good
On a simple word of the President
a project turns into large scale sales
Everyone give all his heart
At this moment he just realized a 50 M sale
How can it be so lucrative?
Mr. Asahina the partner of the President
8 years ago when the university opened
They started the company in an old students' room
On the walls are the memories of numerous employees
Creativity blossoms in a relaxed atmosphere
Is this a Utopia? Or a new work structure?
What do you mean by "work"?
As soon as I'm employed, I'll dedicate myself to the company
So ... why don't you hire me?
Have some self-confidence,
we're not in July yet
The term is very soon
[8 months before in November]
A consulting company for small
and medium enterprises
makes profit ... Other than this ..
Haruka ... I'm with Kuga
Good morning
I bought the job hunting reference,
Am I too late?
I even took the qualifications supplement
I wish I came back a year in time ..
no I don't wish
'You Okay?
That person is a counselor hired
by the resource department
A job hunting counselor?
- No, a psychological counselor
He hasn't been approved
for the 4th year in a row
[5 months before in February]
37.. 38.. 39.. 40
With all these job applications
I have no time to sleep
40 requests in average, my hand is tired
If it was 40 sheets to write, it would be OK
But answering the question
on each one is a drag
Please chose a number between 1 and 9
and explain why you chose it
But answering the question
on each one is a drag
Please chose a number between 1 and 9
and explain why you chose it
"Yes, 1 and 8, it's my birthday"
Could I write something else?
The schedule for the final exam came,
they also want a report
Our university wants to kill us
Test ... Report ... Entry sheet
My part-time job ... gotta go
A table for 4 ... welcome
Pickled seaweed and liver ... 2
Chilled cucumber, homemade miso,
one with mayonnaise
Pork skewer 3, 1 liver, 1 pork
add a Chef's Salad Mimosa
Served with crispy onion chips .. 2
Mr. Koyama wants a plum cocktail,
but gets mad if you put a plum into it
The man at the counter
yesterday after the second beer he turned odd
- You'd better be careful
- Great university student
Your memory is unparalleled ..
there you are
- What's the scary face?
- I didn't sleep
Here are your beers
I'm sorry
Quick do something
Towel .. towel .. bring a towel
A pile of towels .. hurray
30th interview. .. 0 approved
We will begin a group discussion
In a week the planet will be destroyed
But 3 persons will survive
Please explain to me who will survive
Please start
Well obviously the boss will survive
Mr. Hashiguchi, you're hired now
Mr. Inoue.. Mr. Okamoto ..
Again I ended up memorizing
unnecessary names
You never speak .. 'you OK?
That is ...
I will probably die
.. that is if the planet is destroyed
No one will survive, right?
I was told it was better to follow the book
So I studied
I have no idea how hiring works
What can I do? You'll give me a "0"
You're worrying too much
I'm begging you so please
I need a break now
In such a refined place, dressed nicely
People with a nice job ..
What's the difference between them and me?
We'll set up a system
on the web to manage a census
You mean a nationwide census
We'll build up a common system where
each citizen has his registered number
In 3 years?
You think numbers will solve everything?
Why has the pension record been erased?
Because the management is falling apart
Information that is not organized is useless
We'll be make good use of it
The company will increase in value?
I only want to realize my projects,
I don't need praise
And actually what is your project?
I want a personal file on each citizen
On the web individual files
approved by the government
All data on one file from birth to death
Then no one has to go to the city hall
for administrative purpose
But we'd have to come up with
the initial investment .. we can't do that
If we wait for the government to do it
this unfair system will last
People will die before receiving
any decent pension
You have no need for a pension
I need the personal files
The government doesn't keep count
of people's pension dead or alive
We don't have to endure this state of things
You should not put a hand
into such high-risk enterprise
If this was your company,
you wouldn't do it, right?
but we will do it
Sure, I was accountant in a strict company
If the company collapses
we are left bare handed
- He's spending too much money, right?
- That's right
But I'm excited by his project
At last we can take up a large scale project
You guys are so ambitious
I keep my promise
I told you, when I recruited you
The work will never be boring
All right then ... let's go for it
I wonder if Hyuga remembers my name
He remembers all right ...
but he doesn't remember
- He can't remember you
- He can't remember me?
He can't remember
people's faces and names
It's a medical condition called
Prosopagnosia (face recognition deficiency)
What? He's sick?
Why does he want to build a census?
It's just a matter of luck
if you're not hired
I don't need your sympathy
I need to figure out practically
how to make it
- Here you are
- Thank you
How about setting up your own company?
A Stock market value of 3 billion Dollars ..
personal wealth 250 M
He's only 29
Doesn't help me in any way
There are many like him
But he dropped out of high school
What, junior high school?
Let me see the guy
There... Look ... his company is setting
an recruiting session next week
You should go, it could be your destiny
But the girls he hires
Are only fashion model types taller than 165cm
You'll never get a chance
Stop that
Kuga stop
- Hello
- It's your brother
You have received the package?
You could at least call Mom
I'm sorry
Hard time finding a job?
You'll be fine, your future is bright
You studied so hard
Your parents and teachers
all agreed you're smart
What's the matter?
It could be a failure
I'll call you back later
I need someone to cheer me up
Even a single person can change the world
Make the impossible, possible
Break the shackles of old values
and discover a new common sense
NEXT INNOVATION ..
Will give a shock to the world
I don't have enough
- I'm sorry
- May I help you?
May try them on?
Are you job hunting?
Good luck
Last year I wore out 3 pair job hunting
Dear Mr. Sawaki, forgive me
if we haven't been introduced
Would you remember me? Toru Hyuga
Are you my mother?
Ouch ...
Every time you fall asleep,
it's not acceptable
I'm looking for a place where
I'm beaten when I fall sleep
The maintenance costs of this alley
who do you squeeze it from?
Please come anytime
Then I'll come back
I found a person who bears
the same name as my mother
Chihiro Sawaki
I googled and I found her
I don't know her age,
she might not be my mother
Is it self-centeredness
to search for one's birth?
Not at all, everyone wants
to know who they are
Then
That .. is .. amazing
Hello, I'm Hyuga with
NEXT INNOVATION
Let's talk about innovation
Let's talk about Innovation
Hearing the word Innovation, what comes to your mind?
Kosuke Asahina with
NEXT INNOVATION
holding half the shares
of the company as a partner
doesn't change the fact that
Toru Hyuga IS Next Innovation
Yoko, how did you enter here?
There's no place that I can't enter
Why can't you go on stage, brother?
Charisma, he's fine on his own
I missed you
We are not unlucky children born
in a society ridden with obstacles
Now the impossible has become possible
The old values that we thought once unshakable
Just one person in one day can destroy them
In the 20s who would have thought
that one man could earn a 100 M dollars
You can make that choice
If you consider that you're the unlucky guy
You give up and watch the action from your seat
Or you are that guy
who decides to change the world?
Which guy are you?
You know Charisma ...
It's boring to let me talk
Only an eccentric can pull it
Let's talk then
You .. What did you come here for?
I want to work with you
So once you're in you are fulfilled,
you belong to the passive crowd
You?
If I enter NEXT INNOVATION
I can start something new
Amazing
You'll be loafing around in our company
hoping for newness to happen?
It will never come
I pay 208 employees to bring up newness
You?
How many job offers have you got?
- Not one yet
- Not one in this season?
- You graduated from
an obscure university, right?
No, from the University of Tokyo
I see
We live in an era where illustrious
universities are not rewarded
Do you have any fundamental flaw?
Those who haven't had any offers please go
This session is set according to such criterion
For 8 months you've been
scrutinized by various companies
At this point
So those who have been through
that tedious process are suitable for us
Among those who have this potential
I can find the right ones
That's why ..
if you want to enter here ... that's it
Those who have been accepted
by more than 2 companies
Only those who have turned down these
2 offers can enter my company
Please stay
Here he is, this is our Hyuga
So he's that type of man
The man I believed in
Why didn't you tell us from the start
- My bad, I only remembered now
- Scoundrel
Miss "University of Tokyo", it's over
Thank you for letting me know
your diplomas and qualifications
She is the living example of our
Japanese educational system's failure
Or rather a victim
She has been studying as she was told
yet she's grown to be an redundant person
You'll be fine, you're smart
You're brave
NEXT INNOVATION, February 2004
Toru Hyuga started with
his personal web page
He then started with Kosuke Asahina
a big telecom companies
The company was set up in June, 2004
January 2007, listed on the
Tokyo Mothers Stock Market
2010, listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange
July 2012, Current market capitalization 30 B
Starting from the left Kazuo Yoshida ..
chief programmer, Mr. Satoshi Ogawa, Mr. Riichi Hosoki ..
Mr. Hosoki This month's sales are 15 B dollars ..
We got it
You have a vast memory filled
with useless details ... we got it all right
Before coming here I studied your company in every detail
Because I sincerely want to enter it
You're right no one hired me
But it's not because other
company didn't select me
that I am useless to your company
You think excellence is
in interesting application forms?
that someone looking good
in a discussion group has skills?
of course communication skills are indispensable
Do you want to be surrounded by such people only
Sure I am clumsy
I'm an odd ball with strange thoughts
When I'm in a group I bump into people
But doesn't even this create energy?
You're a sore loser, go back home
You should look at each person carefully
even if thousands of people apply
But even if I look thousands of people
the result will still be these guys here
But ... your rebellious heart is a good thing
People who have changed the world
are the rebellious ones
Your rage is not a bad thing
Miss University of Tokyo
This is not my name
it is Chihiro Sawaki
You are Sawaki Chihiro
- Something wrong?
- Nope
I memorized your name,
although I'll probably forget your face
I get it
Please do it today
What's the matter?
Let's resume
The personal file project
is huge but the profit too
If we integrated the census of
the whole nation with our technology
With our system of security and update
We'll permanently integrate them
it's a government contract
We're not the only company
who wants a government contract
We should start with the Ministry of
Internal Affairs and Communications
If we expand thus our competition
is going to increase
That vice-director you argued with
I hate her
Her name is Masako Fujikawa
The homework lady
Students, have you done your homework
Such a big report
With that big report
I thought I was smart
She disliked it, that was easy
Take a woman to accompany you
Let's introduce her to our staff
- She won't like them
- Wait
Somewhere I met someone
who really looks like her
That girl
Nothing ... not one hiring offer
Well, since that company called
It will work .. I'll get hired .. see you
Really?
What so different between them and me?
What's so different? .. I'm their match
It won't work, I'm not their match
Are you OK?
Amazing
Mr. Odagiri
Good Morning
Chihiro Sawaki
- He remembered?!
- Her name?!
Good morning
Please to my office
It is amazing Ms. Sawaki
I've been working with him for two months
He can remember
neither my face nor my name
"Who may you be?" ... 15th time today
You're the guy who turns odd after 2 beers
Hurray
How much do you want?
I want you for 48 hours ...
how much do you cost?
Don't worry it's not for that
I wouldn't call you for that purpose
You're good at remembering things, right?
Homework
We have a luncheon tomorrow
at the Ministry of Internal Affairs
We need to launch a new project
I want to make a perfect impression
on a vice-director at the Ministry
The fact is, you and her
are very similar
Same academic course, she loves homework
You two girls are going to hit it
Myself I will never get
that close to her
but she's going to like you
It's only for tomorrow?
You thought I was calling you
for an interview?
No
Miss Sawaki is going
Maybe I would get along
very well with you
Don't you think I could be your colleague
What's that?
All right
You worked 3 years in India
for Cloud Service Company
as an excellent chief programmer
What age could you be?
Your face is not that sophisticated,
let's keep that baby face
- I'm 28
- Wow! You look so young
- It's because I have a baby face
60% more to go
As usual, a naked room
Didn't I tell you to buy a table
I managed to find 2 pieces
Six years to chose furniture? Is that so hard?
I can't believe it .. why not
chose what's most inconvenient
buy such satisfactory refrigerator
You're rich, why don't you
ask someone to do it for you
I asked many times
They don't get me
I'm probably the only one
who understands your obsessions
I have a heavy responsibility
But I often let you exploit me
So it goes for your personal file project
You really want to keep us
at the level of cell phone games
No, I would hate it
What amazed people yesterday
leaves them listless today
What was rare yesterday,
is taken for granted today
So .. the next amazing project
is those personal files
In 5 years time, an 80 years old lady
in one click will have access to her pension
This fills me with joy
But to build such perfect system
with the money of the company
We'll need the congress
to adopt a bill for it
If it turns bad we'll be homeless
What? Even you are worried?
'Course not .. you can pull it
It's me working miracles
What we first wrote on the wall
This is where we build our own future
["To us nothing is impossible"]
- But I can't do it, only you can do it
What I meant by "us" was "you" ...
"to you nothing is impossible"
Time to eat?
My sister
I'm sorry, tell her you forgot the key or something
Good evening, I'm Yoko Asahina
All right ... please
What a great man
Thanks .. please
That's how it is to meet him again
It's the first time you meet my sister, right?
She's quite a traveler
Where have you traveled lately
A cook can find her livelihood anywhere in the world
Incredible refrigerator .. it's an industrial one, right?
What makes you so excited, you can't buy those
Some refreshments
You have a restaurant at the 1st floor of the company?
I'm gonna be working there
It just opened, right?
I snatched the chef ... she was becoming famous on the West Coast
It had to buy you from your boss, when did you get so valuable?
I'm not valuable, I'm still learning
I serve the wine?
Sank yuu
There are many foods you don't eat
All these supplement vitamins
My group prices are good I need your patronage
Please come spend some money
Sure, I will contribute
But you can't meet Hyuga too many times
He can't remember faces or names
Is that so?
It's all right ... I remember
Is that so?
It's all right ... I remember
It's perfect! I'm a standard score 75, don't underestimate with me
We'll say it's perfect when our mission is a success
Our challenge is a very able and sophisticated woman
Look at yourself in the mirror
Whichever way I look at you, you're a zero offer job hunter
Let's go
Welcome Mr. Hyuga
We just received the fall-winter collection
Please take your time to look
We need something refined, tasteful, beautiful
Wait a second
Am I requesting something definitely impossible?
Please try it on
It's this way
Thank you very much
It's gonna take some time
Thank you very much
Thank you
Wow! She turned into a princess
She has to represent the high level staff of a world class company
I evening requested that feat, that she'd put a smile on her face
Quick, let's go
Later you can change your shoes?
I'm sorry
You can leave them on the floor
The building itself is great, to each according to their means
Renting a place like this I offend politicians
Whatever ... Here we go
It's too much? You wanna quit?
"To you nothing is impossible"
- You stole my line
- You got me
Please let me introduce Miss Sawaki from our company
Thank you
Vice-director Fujikawa I saw your report for the working group
The opinion poll of the Cabinet Office is truly interesting
The issue that is judged
is to assign to each citizen a reference number
The public is not particularly opposed to it
their concern is misuse of 83% of the data
They should be consulted in a poll about means for privacy safety
Finally, what we're left with is a simple technical implementation
At last a person who can handle a conversation
Technically the system Miss Sawaki has developed
allows your unlimited use, the safety is bulletproof
You will appreciate her system as much as we did
We have come to rely more and more on woman nowadays
Mr. Minister, half of the workforce of Japan consists of women
In any case, security will be the issue
We need the back up of the Ministry of the Economy
Please call the director
We'll have to discuss this many more times
He can't remember
He can't remember people's faces and names
It's a disease
Mr. Masaru Yamawaki Division Director oversees promotion information
You met him last week with the Minister of Economy
You sure need some guts to engage such a national project
Mr. Yamawaki, if you hadn't grasped the purport
this project would never see the light of day
that girl is so unexpected, he can use her
I really feel comfortable setting this up with you Miss Sawaki
- Please come at the briefing next week
- That will be my pleasure
Once the Cloud system is integrated such blunders as
the pension records erased won't be possible
It's partly my fault
I was working at the Social Insurance Agency
It is an extremely difficult task to manage 120 million records
But we'll make it a simple task
Our technology will radically improve people's life
Then my sense of guilt will be erased in its turn
You want to ruin this enterprise?
You had to become self-complacent with that woman or did you want to show off
I know you can do well only what you've been told to do
No one asked you to think or act on your own
That's why I had told you exactly what to say
You .. I've got you perfectly figured out
Keep in mind, you're the type of person we don't need
Hyuga, you're crossing the line
I'm going
You should go rest too, today was intense
You're free to go
Thank you all for those 2 days we worked together
For you Mr. Asahina it's confidential and urgent
It's the new software
That girl
I should praise her a little
You did well, not only on what you were told
You reacted appropriately in response to Hyuga's urgent situation
Thanks to you, we started a new enterprise
- What Really?
- Really
So, it's not a time to make such a face
All right, How about a restaurant?
You haven't had anything
I'm so hungry
You can ask for any food
- Any food?
- You deserve it
You should be rewarded ... but before that
Can I ask you something?
Who are you?
You're not Chihiro Sawaki
It's a pseudonym your real name is ..
Who cares about my name ... he doesn't remember anything anyway
You changed it to get closer to Hyuga?
Who's Sawaki Chihiro?
Why would that name stick to his memory?
How do you know that name?
I needed an investigation on that Chihiro Sawaki
When I'm around her my mind is all messed up
We met 8 yeas ago
Next Innovation will be definitely forbidden to apply to this contract

I'm buying India's Power Trunk
What? .. that Cloud Company?
They're selling for
900 M dollars, let's buy
We can't let go of our cash right now
It's fine
You two guys are both against me
Of course
You should listen to me
Asahina laughed, it means it's OK
Damn
I acquired Power Trunk ...
What's the response?
Excellent response

You're worrying too much
I'm begging you so please
I need a break now
In such a refined place, dressed nicely
People with a nice job ..
What's the difference between them and me?
We'll set up a system
on the web to manage a census
You mean a nationwide census
We'll build up a common system where
each citizen has his registered number
In 3 years?
You think numbers will solve everything?
Why has the pension record been erased?
Because the management is falling apart
Information that is not organized is useless
We'll be make good use of it
The company will increase in value?
I only want to realize my projects,
I don't need praise
And actually what is your project?
I want a personal file on each citizen
On the web individual files
approved by the government
All data on one file from birth to death
Then no one has to go to the city hall
for administrative purpose
But we'd have to come up with
the initial investment .. we can't do that
If we wait for the government to do it
this unfair system will last
People will die before receiving
any decent pension
You have no need for a pension
I need the personal files
The government doesn't keep count
of people's pension dead or alive
We don't have to endure this state of things
You should not put a hand
into such high-risk enterprise
If this was your company,
you wouldn't do it, right?
but we will do it
Sure, I was accountant in a strict company
If the company collapses
we are left bare handed
- He's spending too much money, right?
- That's right
But I'm excited by his project
At last we can take up a large scale project
You guys are so ambitious
I keep my promise
I told you, when I recruited you
The work will never be boring
All right then ... let's go for it
I wonder if Hyuga remembers my name
He remembers all right ...
but he doesn't remember
- He can't remember you
- He can't remember me?
He can't remember
people's faces and names
It's a medical condition called
Prosopagnosia (face recognition deficiency)
What? He's sick?
Why does he want to build a census?
It's just a matter of luck
if you're not hired
I don't need your sympathy
I need to figure out practically
how to make it
- Here you are
- Thank you
How about setting up your own company?
A Stock market value of 3 billion Dollars ..
personal wealth 250 M
He's only 29
Doesn't help me in any way
There are many like him
But he dropped out of high school
What, junior high school?
Let me see the guy
There... Look ... his company is setting
an recruiting session next week
You should go, it could be your destiny
But the girls he hires
Are only fashion model types taller than 165cm
You'll never get a chance
Stop that
Kuga stop
- Hello
- It's your brother
You have received the package?
You could at least call Mom
I'm sorry
Hard time finding a job?
You'll be fine, your future is bright
You studied so hard
Your parents and teachers
all agreed you're smart
What's the matter?
It could be a failure
I'll call you back later
I need someone to cheer me up
Even a single person can change the world
Make the impossible, possible
Break the shackles of old values
and discover a new common sense
NEXT INNOVATION ..
Will give a shock to the world
I don't have enough
- I'm sorry
- May I help you?
May try them on?
Are you job hunting?
Good luck
Last year I wore out 3 pair job hunting
Dear Mr. Sawaki, forgive me
if we haven't been introduced
Would you remember me? Toru Hyuga
Are you my mother?
Ouch ...
Every time you fall asleep,
it's not acceptable
I'm looking for a place where
I'm beaten when I fall sleep
The maintenance costs of this alley
who do you squeeze it from?
Please come anytime
Then I'll come back
I found a person who bears
the same name as my mother
Chihiro Sawaki
I googled and I found her
I don't know her age,
she might not be my mother
Is it self-centeredness
to search for one's birth?
Not at all, everyone wants
to know who they are
Then
That .. is .. amazing
Hello, I'm Hyuga with
NEXT INNOVATION
Let's talk about innovation
Let's talk about Innovation
Hearing the word Innovation, what comes to your mind?
Kosuke Asahina with
NEXT INNOVATION
holding half the shares
of the company as a partner
doesn't change the fact that
Toru Hyuga IS Next Innovation
Yoko, how did you enter here?
There's no place that I can't enter
Why can't you go on stage, brother?
Charisma, he's fine on his own
I missed you
We are not unlucky children born
in a society ridden with obstacles
Now the impossible has become possible
The old values that we thought once unshakable
Just one person in one day can destroy them
In the 20s who would have thought
that one man could earn a 100 M dollars
You can make that choice
If you consider that you're the unlucky guy
You give up and watch the action from your seat
Or you are that guy
who decides to change the world?
Which guy are you?
You know Charisma ...
It's boring to let me talk
Only an eccentric can pull it
Let's talk then
You .. What did you come here for?
I want to work with you
So once you're in you are fulfilled,
you belong to the passive crowd
You?
If I enter NEXT INNOVATION
I can start something new
Amazing
You'll be loafing around in our company
hoping for newness to happen?
It will never come
I pay 208 employees to bring up newness
You?
How many job offers have you got?
- Not one yet
- Not one in this season?
- You graduated from
an obscure university, right?
No, from the University of Tokyo
I see
We live in an era where illustrious
universities are not rewarded
Do you have any fundamental flaw?
Those who haven't had any offers please go
This session is set according to such criterion
For 8 months you've been
scrutinized by various companies
At this point
So those who have been through
that tedious process are suitable for us
Among those who have this potential
I can find the right ones
That's why ..
if you want to enter here ... that's it
Those who have been accepted
by more than 2 companies
Only those who have turned down these
2 offers can enter my company
Please stay
Here he is, this is our Hyuga
So he's that type of man
The man I believed in
Why didn't you tell us from the start
- My bad, I only remembered now
- Scoundrel
Miss "University of Tokyo", it's over
Thank you for letting me know
your diplomas and qualifications
She is the living example of our
Japanese educational system's failure
Or rather a victim
She has been studying as she was told
yet she's grown to be an redundant person
You'll be fine, you're smart
You're brave
NEXT INNOVATION, February 2004
Toru Hyuga started with
his personal web page
He then started with Kosuke Asahina
a big telecom companies
The company was set up in June, 2004
January 2007, listed on the
Tokyo Mothers Stock Market
2010, listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange
July 2012, Current market capitalization 30 B
Starting from the left Kazuo Yoshida ..
chief programmer, Mr. Satoshi Ogawa, Mr. Riichi Hosoki ..
Mr. Hosoki This month's sales are 15 B dollars ..
We got it
You have a vast memory filled
with useless details ... we got it all right
Before coming here I studied your company in every detail
Because I sincerely want to enter it
You're right no one hired me
But it's not because other
company didn't select me
that I am useless to your company
You think excellence is
in interesting application forms?
that someone looking good
in a discussion group has skills?
of course communication skills are indispensable
Do you want to be surrounded by such people only
Sure I am clumsy
I'm an odd ball with strange thoughts
When I'm in a group I bump into people
But doesn't even this create energy?
You're a sore loser, go back home
You should look at each person carefully
even if thousands of people apply
But even if I look thousands of people
the result will still be these guys here
But ... your rebellious heart is a good thing
People who have changed the world
are the rebellious ones
Your rage is not a bad thing
Miss University of Tokyo
This is not my name
it is Chihiro Sawaki
You are Sawaki Chihiro
- Something wrong?
- Nope
I memorized your name,
although I'll probably forget your face
I get it
Please do it today
What's the matter?
Let's resume
The personal file project
is huge but the profit too
If we integrated the census of
the whole nation with our technology
With our system of security and update
We'll permanently integrate them
it's a government contract
We're not the only company
who wants a government contract
We should start with the Ministry of
Internal Affairs and Communications
If we expand thus our competition
is going to increase
That vice-director you argued with
I hate her
Her name is Masako Fujikawa
The homework lady
Students, have you done your homework
Such a big report
With that big report
I thought I was smart
She disliked it, that was easy
Take a woman to accompany you
Let's introduce her to our staff
- She won't like them
- Wait
Somewhere I met someone
who really looks like her
That girl
Nothing ... not one hiring offer
Well, since that company called
It will work .. I'll get hired .. see you
Really?
What so different between them and me?
What's so different? .. I'm their match
It won't work, I'm not their match
Are you OK?
Amazing
Mr. Odagiri
Good Morning
Chihiro Sawaki
- He remembered?!
- Her name?!
Good morning
Please to my office
It is amazing Ms. Sawaki
I've been working with him for two months
He can remember
neither my face nor my name
"Who may you be?" ... 15th time today
You're the guy who turns odd after 2 beers
Hurray
How much do you want?
I want you for 48 hours ...
how much do you cost?
Don't worry it's not for that
I wouldn't call you for that purpose
You're good at remembering things, right?
Homework
We have a luncheon tomorrow
at the Ministry of Internal Affairs
We need to launch a new project
I want to make a perfect impression
on a vice-director at the Ministry
The fact is, you and her
are very similar
Same academic course, she loves homework
You two girls are going to hit it
Myself I will never get
that close to her
but she's going to like you
It's only for tomorrow?
You thought I was calling you
for an interview?
No
Miss Sawaki is going
Maybe I would get along
very well with you
Don't you think I could be your colleague
What's that?
All right
You worked 3 years in India
for Cloud Service Company
as an excellent chief programmer
What age could you be?
Your face is not that sophisticated,
let's keep that baby face
- I'm 28
- Wow! You look so young
- It's because I have a baby face
60% more to go
As usual, a naked room
Didn't I tell you to buy a table
I managed to find 2 pieces
Six years to chose furniture? Is that so hard?
I can't believe it .. why not
chose what's most inconvenient
buy such satisfactory refrigerator
You're rich, why don't you
ask someone to do it for you
I asked many times
They don't get me
I'm probably the only one
who understands your obsessions
I have a heavy responsibility
But I often let you exploit me
So it goes for your personal file project
You really want to keep us
at the level of cell phone games
No, I would hate it
What amazed people yesterday
leaves them listless today
What was rare yesterday,
is taken for granted today
So .. the next amazing project
is those personal files
In 5 years time, an 80 years old lady
in one click will have access to her pension
This fills me with joy
But to build such perfect system
with the money of the company
We'll need the congress
to adopt a bill for it
If it turns bad we'll be homeless
What? Even you are worried?
'Course not .. you can pull it
It's me working miracles
What we first wrote on the wall
This is where we build our own future
["To us nothing is impossible"]
- But I can't do it, only you can do it
What I meant by "us" was "you" ...
"to you nothing is impossible"
Time to eat?
My sister
I'm sorry, tell her you forgot the key or something
Good evening, I'm Yoko Asahina
All right ... please
What a great man
Thanks .. please
That's how it is to meet him again
It's the first time you meet my sister, right?
She's quite a traveler
Where have you traveled lately
A cook can find her livelihood anywhere in the world
Incredible refrigerator .. it's an industrial one, right?
What makes you so excited, you can't buy those
Some refreshments
You have a restaurant at the 1st floor of the company?
I'm gonna be working there
It just opened, right?
I snatched the chef ... she was becoming famous on the West Coast
It had to buy you from your boss, when did you get so valuable?
I'm not valuable, I'm still learning
I serve the wine?
Sank yuu
There are many foods you don't eat
All these supplement vitamins
My group prices are good I need your patronage
Please come spend some money
Sure, I will contribute
But you can't meet Hyuga too many times
He can't remember faces or names
Is that so?
It's all right ... I remember
Is that so?
It's all right ... I remember
It's perfect! I'm a standard score 75, don't underestimate with me
We'll say it's perfect when our mission is a success
Our challenge is a very able and sophisticated woman
Look at yourself in the mirror
Whichever way I look at you, you're a zero offer job hunter
Let's go
Welcome Mr. Hyuga
We just received the fall-winter collection
Please take your time to look
We need something refined, tasteful, beautiful
Wait a second
Am I requesting something definitely impossible?
Please try it on
It's this way
Thank you very much
It's gonna take some time
Thank you very much
Thank you
Wow! She turned into a princess
She has to represent the high level staff of a world class company
I evening requested that feat, that she'd put a smile on her face
Quick, let's go
Later you can change your shoes?
I'm sorry
You can leave them on the floor
The building itself is great, to each according to their means
Renting a place like this I offend politicians
Whatever ... Here we go
It's too much? You wanna quit?
"To you nothing is impossible"
- You stole my line
- You got me
Please let me introduce Miss Sawaki from our company
Thank you
Vice-director Fujikawa I saw your report for the working group
The opinion poll of the Cabinet Office is truly interesting
The issue that is judged
is to assign to each citizen a reference number
The public is not particularly opposed to it
their concern is misuse of 83% of the data
They should be consulted in a poll about means for privacy safety
Finally, what we're left with is a simple technical implementation
At last a person who can handle a conversation
Technically the system Miss Sawaki has developed
allows your unlimited use, the safety is bulletproof
You will appreciate her system as much as we did
We have come to rely more and more on woman nowadays
Mr. Minister, half of the workforce of Japan consists of women
In any case, security will be the issue
We need the back up of the Ministry of the Economy
Please call the director
We'll have to discuss this many more times
He can't remember
He can't remember people's faces and names
It's a disease
Mr. Masaru Yamawaki Division Director oversees promotion information
You met him last week with the Minister of Economy
You sure need some guts to engage such a national project
Mr. Yamawaki, if you hadn't grasped the purport
this project would never see the light of day
that girl is so unexpected, he can use her
I really feel comfortable setting this up with you Miss Sawaki
- Please come at the briefing next week
- That will be my pleasure
Once the Cloud system is integrated such blunders as
the pension records erased won't be possible
It's partly my fault
I was working at the Social Insurance Agency
It is an extremely difficult task to manage 120 million records
But we'll make it a simple task
Our technology will radically improve people's life
Then my sense of guilt will be erased in its turn
You want to ruin this enterprise?
You had to become self-complacent with that woman or did you want to show off
I know you can do well only what you've been told to do
No one asked you to think or act on your own
That's why I had told you exactly what to say
You .. I've got you perfectly figured out
Keep in mind, you're the type of person we don't need
Hyuga, you're crossing the line
I'm going
You should go rest too, today was intense
You're free to go
Thank you all for those 2 days we worked together
For you Mr. Asahina it's confidential and urgent
It's the new software
That girl
I should praise her a little
You did well, not only on what you were told
You reacted appropriately in response to Hyuga's urgent situation
Thanks to you, we started a new enterprise
- What Really?
- Really
So, it's not a time to make such a face
All right, How about a restaurant?
You haven't had anything
I'm so hungry
You can ask for any food
- Any food?
- You deserve it
You should be rewarded ... but before that
Can I ask you something?
Who are you?
You're not Chihiro Sawaki
It's a pseudonym your real name is ..
Who cares about my name ... he doesn't remember anything anyway
You changed it to get closer to Hyuga?
Who's Sawaki Chihiro?
Why would that name stick to his memory?
How do you know that name?
I needed an investigation on that Chihiro Sawaki
When I'm around her my mind is all messed up
We met 8 yeas ago
Next Innovation will be definitely forbidden to apply to this contract
