ブラック・プレジデント

As mentioned, this is the launch of our new brand, TFI Peach,

We are currently making preparations to make a press announcement.

President.

President, is there some problem?

This is really half hearted. Huh?

Well, it just doesn't seem enough.

Originally this brand's purpose was to

target the younger women customers and expand our hold in that market?

That's right. This stuff,

will young girls want it?

Well that's.... Didn't we use our

marketing surveys to decide?

Further those were used to determine these.

If those marketing things were always so great,

anybody could do this job.

To begin with, is there any among the old geezers here

that has any idea of what young women think?

Any idea ? Kobayakawa kun.

Huh? What young women think.

I don't know. See.

In any event, isn't it

necessary that we have another look at this?

Well now that you've said that.....

Oh, well... yes. What ? what ?

Something you want to say, Akechi kun.

Well, since the president is attending school,

in order to understand what young women think....

well....

That isn't something that can so easily be understood, is it?

Please excuse me.

Next topic !

Why is it the ratio is so low in our club

of those having boyfriends and girlfriends?

It would be good if our club was self-sufficient.

Why are we such losers ~ ?

Don't ask me .

Oh it's Mitamura.

Heck, Mitamura might have it going on ~ ?

Well, that's because he's got money and status...

Well, there's not many women that can stand his personality, is there?

Doesn't matter does it.

What is it young women think ~?

Oh, hello.

Yes ?

Are you perhaps President Mitamura of Tres Fields?

Well, I am.

I'm Takaoka Mayumi, a fourth year student in business administration.

When I heard that President Mitamura was attending school here,

I thought that I just had to meet you.

Oh , right. I absolutely

love Tres clothes. Oh really. Those are all ours.

Yes.

I love clothes, so I always go to Tres Fields,

and then when I heard that the President was coming here.

Would it be possible for me to shake your hand?

Oh, that's OK.

Thank you very much.

Someone likes him?

Oh, do you think

we could chat for just a bit?

Oh, I suppose.

Even after washing Tres clothes,

Well the collars don't get all wrinkled.

That's one thing I think is great.

Somehow, most things if you just wash them once,

you have to stretch

them all back into shape. It's the case.

I have the highest regard for President Mitamura's management principles.

Hey well, about calling me president,

It's just that I'm...

I'm only a freshman, how about Mitamura kun?

Well, that's not...

Well, Mitamura san?

Well OK. Let's go with that.

When I look on the Internet, there are a lot of

Mitamura san's idioms.

"If you stop swimming, you will sink."

"You all can swim, because I'm swimming."

And then, "If you take 24 hours off, you've lost."?

You know those things,

people say it shows the pattern of a black enterprise.

Huh? I like it! Oh really?

People that hear that and think it's black, are just spoiled!

Isn't life and work, difficult?

To enjoy the fruits of one's labor,

and to become an adult,

it's necessary for us to suffer through hardship.

Even if you see Tres Fields as a black enterprise,

it's because Mitamura san's ideals are high,

I think such a criticism would be incorrect.

You nailed it.

Huh? Well, this somehow makes me happy, that you get it.

Why there are people that don't get it, I don't understand.

Mmm, Japanese people,

like to talk about things, like privilege and equality.

Well, that itself is important.

But if that's all you talk about,

but by eliminating the more important things, it kind of puts the cart before the horse.

That's right. Japanese just go along to get along.

Last year I came back from America to study abroad,

It was enlightening. You studied abroad?

Yes. From now on, I think I want to research

Japanese business. Oh really.

If it's alright,

would it be possible for me to pick your brain?

Oh sure. Really can I? That makes me happy.

With that, actually I have a request.

Oh, what?

Well, it's kind of hard to say.

Oh, it's fine, it's fine, spit it out.

Would it be alright if I wrote

my thesis on your company?

Oh that's OK! Really ?

Thank you very much. Oh no problem.

Huh? Serious?

Well, it seriously happened!

They hit it off right away, following him around like a lover.

Oh is that right. The girl is fourth year

business administration student Takaoka Mayumi, she's known for being quite good looking.

Takaoka Mayumi? Yes.

Oh? Hmm, What's wrong?

That girl is taking my class in management statistics.

So she's your acquaintance? Calling her an acquaintance....?

It was me. What is it?

Awhile ago, after the lecture, I was talking to her.

We were talking about her interest in business management,

and I told her about Mitamura san.

That the Tres Fields President,

had come back to our school as an adult student.

Oh, so that's why they met.

She's a fireball. yea.

Oh, it seemed they hit it off well?

No, more like they became lovers?

Tonight they'll probably be at a hotel.

Huh, well I have no particular reason to complain.

Well, looking like that~. But somehow, it makes me nauseous.

Well, I get that.

But...

"I might like him ?"

"Who?" "Mitamura san"

What is it? Oh, well, nothing.

Can I join you?

Oh, yes.

Please pass the sauce.

Thank you.

Well it seems that the mood is a bit blue.

Well it's also the season, kind of makes it hard.

It is hard.

Wow, and it's right under our noses.

Are you OK?

Can't be helped.

Mmm?

I can't say such smart things like that girl can.

Well, but Yuri chan has things about Yuri chan that are charming.

That is to say, even if not that guy, there's somebody else you'd be good for.

More age appropriate. Maybe.

Is there a mentor that has influenced you?

Well there was one, if I really think about it,

For example.... Yes.

Great, I've learned a lot. Oh, no.

Thank you very much. Well, excuse me.

What? Oh hello~.

Hello. Somehow, you are grinning.

Huh, what do you mean?

Oh right. The one that introduced me to her,

was you Kyoko Senpai. She's a really nice girl.

Huh, well that's...

Please excuse me.

Huh? Did I say something wrong to Yuri chan?

I didn't did I? Huh?

Well, I really don't get her reactions ~.

Then isn't it better for you to see a girl

that's easier to understand? Huh?

Mitamura san,

you did say at that time, didn't you? Huh?

I decided that someday,

at this university, a beautiful woman will hold my arm walking across campus.

It looks like that dream came true.

What are you talking about? It's not what you think.

You've greatly misunderstood again? Huh?

Look, she's writing her thesis on the subject

of my company is what I'm saying.

All I'm doing is lending her cooperation in that.

And further, my job is to sell clothes to women,

it is important for me to do market research

by talking to girls. So where does this

line of thinking come from that I'm hitting on co-eds?

Could you please stop? If you have the time

to imagine such foolish things,

maybe you should concentrate a little more on your own job, how about it?

That I will. I am so sorry.

Later.

That's pretty good. You really did great.

Saejima san. Yes.

Lately, hasn't the president been a little strange?

Oh you mean that? Lately, he's always checking his phone.

Yes, that ! and moreover,

he's seemingly more cheerful.

I wonder who it is?

Well, I don't think it's anyone in the company, but.
