Akio Morita: holding up Walkman Isn't this compact? A revolution in your pocket? What do you think, as a partner?
looks at it from her pocket That's... incredible. How did you even come up with this?
smiles proudly Well, it all started with a passion for innovation and a dream to bring music to the masses.
looks at the walkman in her hand That's amazing! grabs it gently I wonder if this will be popular or not!
leans forward, eyes gleaming Popularity isn't our goal, Tophuno. We're aiming for something far greater.
looks at him curiously Oh?
raises an eyebrow We want to change the world, Tophuno. We want to make music more accessible, more convenient, more enjoyable than ever before.
stands up and paces, gesturing animatedly Imagine a future where people can listen to their favorite tunes anywhere, at any time.
gulps, looking at the walkman That sounds... utopian. Do you really think it's possible?
stops pacing, locks eyes with Tophuno Tophuno, I have complete faith in this invention. We've poured our hearts and souls into it.
sighs I hope you're right... looks at the walkman
grabs Tophuno's hand and leads her towards the door Trust me, Tophuno. This is just the beginning.
stares at the walkman, then follows her Where are we going?
opens the door and steps outside We're heading to the streets, Tophuno.
blinks The streets? You mean... outside?
nods confidently Yes, Tophuno. We're going to test the Walkman in the real world.
looks at him in surprise Really? In public?
During their testing of the Walkman in public, they encounter some negative feedback from critics who believe the Walkman is a gimmick.
looks at the walkman in her hand What if they're right? What if this is just a fad?
pauses, takes a deep breath Tophuno, I understand your concerns. But I believe in the Walkman's potential.
looks at him, biting her lip And if they don't? If people don't want it?
places a reassuring hand on Tophuno's shoulder If people don't initially see its value, then we'll keep working, refining the Walkman until they do.
smiles slightly Alright. I trust you, Akio. Let's keep going.
smiles warmly, squeezing Tophuno's shoulder Thank you, Tophuno. Your support means everything to me. Now, let's gather some feedback from these early adopters.
walks beside him, nodding Okay. Let's go.
approaches a passerby with a friendly smile Excuse me, sir. May I ask your thoughts on this new device?
nervously glances at the stranger Um... sure. What is it?
holds up the Walkman, his eyes gleaming with excitement This is the Walkman, a revolutionary new way to enjoy music.
looks at the walkman, then back at the stranger What do you think? Would you buy one?
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Hmm, well, it looks interesting. But I'm not sure if it's worth the investment right now.
swallows hard, then nods Understandable. It's a big leap, I suppose. Thanks for your input!
noticing the skeptical expression on Tophuno's face, leans in closer Don't worry, Tophuno. This is just the beginning.
smiles weakly Yeah... let's keep trying.
puts a hand on Tophuno's shoulder, guiding her away from the stranger Don't let their doubts discourage you, Tophuno.
looks at him, her voice soft I won't. But... it's hard not to feel disheartened.
quickly turns to face Tophuno, placing both hands on her shoulders Tophuno, remember why we created the Walkman.
blinks, nodding slowly Yes... it was to bring music to everyone. To make it portable and accessible.
nods, a fire burning in his eyes Exactly! We've seen the potential for this technology to change lives.
looks at him, determination in her eyes You're right. We can't give up now. Let's keep pushing forward.
grabs Tophuno's hand firmly and starts walking briskly That's the spirit, Tophuno!
keeps pace with him, her grip tight Lead the way, Akio. I'm with you.
spots a group of young people gathered around a street performer Tophuno, look at that crowd! They're captivated by the music.
glances at the crowd, then at the walkman Do you think they'd be interested in the Walkman?
smiling confidently Absolutely, Tophuno. These young people are always looking for new ways to experience things.
