Sakai is a salesman for a commercial insurance company, and he meets every potential customer with a smile on his face every day.

Although compared to the workers in the workshop, the suit and leather shoes are decently dressed, but the taste is also cold and warm.

After being troubled by a customer once again and finally finding nothing, Sakai leaned back in front of the support column by the platform and let out a long sigh.

As a member of the social animal, this kind of encounter is normal.

However, the constraints of social etiquette and culture make them have to hold these in their hearts and endure them silently.

After a moment's distraction, Sakai took a coin from his pocket and stuffed it into the vending machine in front of him, and a bottle of beer slid down to the bottom of the cashier.

The coldness of the "poof" beer made him shiver, but the irritability in his heart subsided slightly.

"Taiyi, this lightning kid is really cool."

"It's Flashman, not Lightning Kid."

"But that's what they all call it."

"That's because they don't know English, and those guys are so vulgar."

Sakai couldn't help but smile as he listened to the conversation on the side of the platform. Japanese English pronunciation is really hard to describe, but people like to use English.

Whether it's a song in the entertainment industry or a variety of newly designed products, you have to mix in a few English words, as if you don't do it, you can't have style.

Sakai glanced slightly, and two young men were fiddling with a Walkman-like machine with their heads down.

It's just that the shape seems to be more rounded and delicate, and it looks pretty good.

But the most striking thing is the incredibly small pocket headphones.

Headphones that can be half-hidden in the ear are never seen before.

Sakai was a little interested, he measured his body slightly, and looked at it more closely.

「KITA」？ A club that has never been heard of.

"It's a little too expensive, 25,000 yen. Taiyi. ”

"This is my dad bought me for my birthday."

"I wish my birthday was coming soon."

A teenager looked at it enviously, and a teenager said proudly.

25,000 yen is not expensive, so Sakai threw the beer can in his hand into the trash, straightened his collar and set off again.

Ten minutes later, Shinjuku Yodo Hachiki store. Sakai looked at the dazzling array of goods in the store and was a little confused.

If you look for so many products on your own, you probably won't be able to find them all in a day.

He turned around and looked around, and was relieved to see the salesperson not far away.

"Hello, may I ask if there is a lightning little here..., oh no, it's KITA. Is there a KITA here? ”

Sakai almost blurted out a word about the lightning kid, but fortunately he stopped in time.

“KITA？” The saleswoman was stunned, then reacted, "Is Mr. talking about flashman?" ”

"That's right" Sakai was a little abrupt, he only wrote down the logo on the shell before, and subconsciously thought that this was also one of its names.

"Please come with me," the saleswoman led him to a separate display area, where several different colors of flashmans were placed on display shelves.

Color, size, style, at a glance.

There are already a lot of people here who are picking their favorite styles, and it seems that this thing called flashman seems to be quite popular.

Sakai thanked the salesperson and slowly picked it up. Sure enough, it was very good, and the pocket-sized headphones were also tied into a small ball and shrunk to the side.

In fact, he also likes to listen to music, and basically listens to vinyl at home. When Sony launched the Walkman a few months ago, to be honest, he was also impressed.

But he didn't like the ostentatious way of wearing his Walkman on his waist, and he didn't like the swaggering headphones.

Don't look at him with a smiling face every day, he looks enthusiastic when he sees everyone. In fact, he is delicate in his heart, and he prefers to act introverted in private.

So the appearance of Flashman was an excellent choice for him.

Small enough to fit in your pocket, the semi-hidden headphones are even more unobtrusive.

Maybe you can enjoy music in the crowded and noisy carriage in the future.

In the end, Sakai chose the silver flashman, which has a bit of business flavor and a lot of texture.

When he was checking out at the checkout counter with the box, it happened that another white-collar woman also walked here with a blue flashman.

Although they didn't know each other, the two still smiled and nodded to each other.

The same choice, at least aesthetically, fits quite well.

Sakai's afterglow kept an eye on his surroundings from time to time, and a surging emotion quietly sprouted in the depths of his heart.

…

Shirakawa Kaede's initial positioning of Flashman was a low-end product for young people.

But at this time, he didn't know that Flashman was also quite popular among office workers.

As the year approaches, time seems to be passing faster than usual in people's anticipation of the new year.

Christmas has passed in a flash, and the three-day advertisement of Shirakawa Electric has been completed.

Today is the third day after Flashman's launch, and Christmas has just passed.

The first shipment of 20,000 units has been spilled out, and even the BIC camera has been replenished once.

Today, everyone from Shirakawa Electric arrived in the conference room early, and they all looked anxious and a little expectant.

And the reason why they came so early is because they know that the sales statistics of retailers in various channels are about to come out.

In order to accurately calculate the sales volume, Shirakawa Electric personally sent people to the major retailers to count the sales of each company, and finally summarized.

If you wait for the retailer to provide a list of sales, it will be at least a week later.

Shirakawa Electric, who can't wait, needs to formulate the next production strategy according to the sales volume, so it can only end up by itself.

And just when everyone was scratching their ears and cheeks, Shirakawa Kaede finally arrived at the conference room in the eyes of everyone.

"Everyone has been waiting for a long time" Shirakawa Kaede first greeted them with a smile, and then sat down at the top amid everyone's gossip of greetings.

Shirakawa Kaede suddenly laughed as he watched everyone staring at him.

"Are you nervous?"

The tense atmosphere was suddenly like a punctured balloon with his words.

"President..."Everyone looked at him with resentment, as if they had been wronged.

Especially Asuka Kobayashi, if she hadn't cared about everyone, it is estimated that she would have wanted to teach Shirakawa-san a good lesson.

"Okay" Shirakawa Kaede gathered his spirits and looked at everyone with a serious expression.

"The sales volume of each retail store for the three days of Christmas has been fully counted."

Shirakawa Kaede raised the document in his hand and waved, "Flashman's three-day holiday sales are 9,200 units!" ”

"Oh~!!"

As soon as the words ended, there was a cheer in the conference room.

Everyone raised their hands and waved happily, especially the Meiji brothers and sisters, who were the most lively.

Young people are more passionate and energetic, and as the first important project in their lives, they feel a full sense of accomplishment at this moment.

As for Hasegawa in the marketing department, he felt like he had a stone in his heart, and his body seemed to be evacuated and he collapsed directly on the chair.

9,200 units, 230 million yen in sales, three days!

Thanks to Sony's big brother's reputation in the first half of the year, Shirakawa Electric's Flashman is about to take off.
