Hi there!
This is Jun Tomioka.

Yesterday,I watched TV and cheered for Kei Nishikori who is No1 Japanese
male tennis player for a long time.
He joined the Miami Open Tennis tournament and played with Stefanos Tsitsipas
from Greece who is No5 in the world ranking.

It was a close game.
Tsitsipas led the first set but Nishikori immediately
recovered in the second set.
In the final set, Tsitspas beat Nishikori.

Since Nishikori had a trouble about his right elbow last year,
he was not able to join tournaments. So, he ranked down to No.39
in the world.

This year, he recuperated and played again in the tournament.
Although he didn’t win yesterday, it seemed that his condition
was not that bad and he still did his best.

I will cheer for him as usual.

Hi there!
This is Jun Tomioka.

I visited a UNIQLO shop yesterday.
After choosing some clothes, I headed to the checkout counter.

There were two types of checkout counters: the usual one
where the staff usually works and the “Self-Checkout Counter”
where nobody was there. I tried “Self-Checkout” for the first time.

I put the basket including clothes to the instructed space.
A display showed the number of clothes.
When I push the OK button, the machine calculated and showed the total
amount right away. I paid it by credit card.

The procedure was very smooth.
I think it will be expanded in many shops soon.

Hi there!
This is Jun Tomioka.

I knew that Amazon started their new business to sell products
for professional use for beauty salons.
Registered beauty salons can order on Amazon online
and get the products very quickly.

I think this service will be a threat to dealers in the beauty industry.
Many dealers have often visited their clients and cherished
the relationship with clients.

But if Amazon will provide products at a less expensive price and quickly,
beauty salons might prefer Amazon than other dealers.

I think that dealers should provide valuable information to beauty salons.
That is the only way to overcome this difficult situation.

Hi there!
This is Jun Tomioka.

OHANAMI means “cherry blossom viewing”.
Yesterday was a Saturday and, since it was a weekend,
it was the best day for OHANAMI.
The weather was fine and the cherry trees were in full bloom.

I drove my car and enjoyed OHANAMI from a car with my family.

Many people went out and walked under the cherry trees.
Some people had their party under those cherry trees.

Due to the pandemic, the government gave us a warning not to
go out as much as possible. But OHANAMI is a traditional custom which
most Japanese cannot miss.
Everyone wants to enjoy it because the view will only last for one week.

Anyway, I do hope patients of corona virus will not increase again.

Hi there!
This is Jun Tomioka.

Nikkei BP Consulting Ltd. announced “Brand Japan 2021”.
Here is a research for 10 popular brands mostly followed
by Japanese customers.

Here are the following results:
1.YouTube
2.Google
3.UNIQLO
4.Muji
5.SONY
6.NISSIN FOODS
7.Amazon
8.Disney
9.TOYOTA
10.Apple

Youtube took the first place in two consecutive years.
Due to the pandemic, many people spend a lot of time at home.
So, YouTube users increased.
They say that the number of users in Japan alone every month
is over 65 million!

I am enjoying watching YouTube videos and also making my own
YouTube channel.

Before, we could only acquire information with pictures
using television as a medium.
But nowadays, getting a lot of information has become
more accessible with the use of the Internet.
A very fast-paced world, indeed.
