I love guys like this. When I was a kid, I was a seat partner on a plane with a Japanese salesman who entertained me with magnets and stories on a long flight from Australia to Germany. He gave me his card, being 8 years old I did not have a business card. I checked up on him 20 years later and found out he had become a top executive at Mitsubishi Electric.
@Cosmonauteable wow!
Had a similar experience, except it involved a Japanese flight attendance, who gave me a handjob. Didnt get her name, let alone her card.

Oh wow
Please do "How Big is Tencent". They are the biggest investment firm in the world, but it would be nice to know how they accomplished this.
Mac Foraday they are the biggest gaming company in the world. They own Epic, Riot, Supercell. So they own both Pubg and Fortnite
k z a They don't own pubg and fortnite, they have publishing rights for them in china.
what? dude what área you doing here? xd i used yo Watch you'r early no man's Sky streams
Jose Angel Monterroza Well I'm still streaming and making videos and will be doing it all day when the NMS NEXT update hits on July 24th
The CCP supports them.
Actuall scratch that, like every Chinese company Tencent is nothing more than a puppet of the CCP.
Literally believed SoftBank was runned by Masayoshis' business oriented son.
I swear I thought I was the only one thinking that.
I kept on asking myself, why are they referring to his son without saying his name..... Lmao
lol!
Didn't we all xD
OMG, I'm glad I came across this comment because I legit thought the same !
Son loses 70 billion dollars overnight - "maybe this is a good thing?"
What a man.
This is the first time I've laughed during one of your videos.
A good business man sees the opportunities, not the problems. And in the end what's 70 billion to 8 billion? Granted, the absolute difference is huge but in regards to personal wealth it's just numbers in a bank. There isn't much that you can do wit 70 billion that you can't already do with 8 billion or even 1 billion.
e1123581321345589144 if business man were like you thought, they would all be bankrupt. What is the point in seeing only the opportunities in something.
@JetWing, don't put words in my mouth, I din't say only, and you obviously haven't understood the point of my comment.
The point was that it's not worth spending your time on problems you can't fix, it's rather more lucrative to look for new opportunities.
If you can fix the problem then it's a matter of cost/benefit but if you can't fix it there is no point in lamenting over it is there?
Elon was laughing after totaling a Lamborghini
and when asked what's so funny he replayed: "It's not Insured"
It’s not about the loss, you morons.
The quote was in relation to the opportunities made available thanks to the recession.
On the one hand - everything lost value and people lost billions.
On the other hand - everything was suddenly dirt cheap. Because everything lost value. Duh!
So if you still had money. Then you could buy EVERYTHING and become super wealthy again.
So yes. It was a good thing. He still had $8B. He still had massive purchasing power in a market where the value of things were rock bottom. Imagine 99% sales.
The value of these things only had one way to go. UP! The market WILL recover and it did.
This is how ALL business has made money in ALL history.
Take advantage of when prices are low. Spend spend spend. Buy buy buy. Invest heavily then reap the rewards when the value of things rise again.
Everybody keeps crying about how bad the recession was. The recession was only bad to poor people who didn’t have extra money to survive through the tough years.
Rich people lost a lot of money. But as long as they still had SOME money then they just got richer after the recession passed.
I had never heard of SoftBank. Thank you for teaching me, Dagogo. I love when you present these great entrepreneurs.
Neither had I until I came to Japan where they're one of the 'big 3' mobile phone service providers. When I heard that they bought my previous cell provider in the U.S., Sprint, I knew they were bigger than just another multi-faceted Japanese company. 3-4 years ago, Yahoo! Mobile got kickstarted and uses the SoftBank network to operate. I jumped ship from DoCoMo and have been a satisfied Y!Mobile customer ever since.
I thought this was gonna be a boring one but I clicked and I'm glad I did! Awesome Dagogo!
Yes, it was awesome copy-paste from wikipedia :D
Jayson Dilao ikr
This channel is never boring. Surprisingly
This guy is a *LEGEND*
he said yolo before it was cool
compare to elon musk?
James May - elon musk aint shit in the smarts department, he has even said so. Like steve jobs, he knows business... he made great investments years ago. He simply has the money to do what he wants. Most keep their money or spend it wisely, not risk.
In japan there are tons of rumors about the shady practices behind softbank's expansion tactics. You dont need to do much to dig dirt on his business. So no i dont think he's cool.
Indeed A Legend
Damn, I didn't know about Masayoshi Son, this dude's some inspirational individual
He is Korean
Korean by ancestry, but grew up as Japanese.
I suddenly have so much respect for SoftBank
Okay buddy.
Mind Yours What seems to be the problem?
Look up DARPA
Mind Yours DARPA funds Boston Dynamics, as they do most preeminent robotics companies. What’s the problem?
+KFCthanksgiving Boston Dynamics is signed under a military contract; which Softbanks(that created Pepper) now owns Boston Dynamics; which is controlled by DARPA. Even their first model is suspended while wearing military fatigues. Picture a robot that can fully read you and mimic human behavior, but with the capabilities to out perform you. That shyt is dangerous. Look at Drones. Originally a surveillance system. then it was planted with bombs. I can clearly see where this is going. The fact Google has their stake in the company is scary as is. Especially with their Duplex program. Elon's OpenAI is worry some as it already is. Yet let a hyper intelligent machine that can read and interact with your emotions vividly with high advanced intelligence and reflexes. While programed to neutralize an individual. I just don't see the upside to any of this. People laugh but Detroit: Become Human, and BBC show Humans is coming closer and closer to being an actual thing. The moment they find a way to properly apply human synthetic tissue or a simulation of it onto an artificial being. Not only would it be a job scare. Yet they would found a more solid way to police people, and enforce martial law. The fact that technology stocks are the highest. It shows they are really pushing for this to happen sooner then later.
He looks like Jian Yang of Silicon Valley when he was young. Jian went back to China and started local versions of the companies in US. One photo looks like he is with Erlich Bachmann at 3:09.
my exact fucking thoughts! He even got the accent, maybe the show took inspiration from him
The character was literally based on him.
Keep the good job!
Plz make how big is Xiaomi!
Tiny when you compare it other conglomerates.
Chrissel L Tencent or Baidu.
Minas Sfakianakis yes! Good idea 💡
D H *Thanks!* 😅
Xiaomi is as big as yao ming
You really put a lot of research and effort into your videos. They're almost like mini documentaries and always leave me craving more information. My hat off to you sir!!
We should learn what SoftBank is now before they become our robot overlords.
😂😂😂
Does your body control you or do you control your body? Robot ( body ) is nothing without AI but AI is everything without body.
🤣🤣🤣
Softbank.. yeah it does sound ominous like Skynet
Bill Gates is the Masayoshi of America
HA HA I LOVE THIS ONE
Indeed son is lot cooler than gates
And Jeff bezoz is jack ma of usa
Bill gates in fact did nothing. He was given the PC windows system by the Xerox corporation. He invented nothing. He's a completely manufactured tycoon.
@@GrzegorzDurda dude, without the money he got from writing basic he wouldn't even got started
DAMN SON, YOU ARE COOL AF.
Make a video on Rimac company, they do a lot of amazing things and their story is inspiring
When I saw the notification with the name "Softbank" on it., I was like "finally"
Please Coldfusion I need a video about Toshiba or Hitachi or Siemens :)
Just an update, as of May 20th 2018, Softbank sold all their shares in Flipkart to Walmart at a whopping price of $4 billion, earning $1.5 billion, and thus completely disassociating themselves with Flipkart. I think the research behind this video was already done before the deal was announced.
Good movie. Flipkart would've died soon without Walmart taking over as it was directly competing against an industry giant - Amazon
Dag, your information-per-minute is wonderful. You give knowledge very, very efficiently. Thank you for you hard work - research, vetting, shooting, editing and more. 🔌
Another video from my favorite channel on TH-cam
cant describe how happy i am every time Dagogo releases a new video
Rodrigo D Madruga same here
Same here 🌿 bro
Superb video as always, will you please start a *founders biographies series* thank you for such great content.
you are a brilliant documentary creator and should look to making more main stream docs. I would as well as the world would benefit but I guess your doing that right now :)
This channel keeps getting better with every video! Great job Dagogo
Thank u so much for uploading!! Japanese never seizes to fascinate us! And this is the first time i'm hearing about Softbank!
The entire How BIG is series is always fantastic!
Thank you! Dagogo, you are my inspiration to do voiceover.
Very nice video as usual CF! Particularly enjoyed that one - really nice research and storytelling. Thank you.
Just love your videos, appreciate the effort you put into them ❤️
Another good tech video and educational at the same damn time!!
Thanks, I love this series of yours! For me it was a bit short and too brief though.
Nice brief sumup.. Love it thanks for sharing
Finally a Great Video about SoftBank. Thanks a lot Coldfusion
*Didn't had a clue, really impressed.*
Could you post a video on how to research information like you do? I really love your videos, but often times I"d like to go deeper into the topics. It would be awesome to be able to learn about this stuff on my own, thanks for being such a huge inspiration for me!
Thanks for this: I must view the rest of your 'how big is ' series.
r/Futurology mod here. Love your vids. Just posted it on the sub
It's been a long while since I've used that subreddit, but I recognize your username. Yo're in r/singularity too, right?
Awesome, I love that subreddit.
remind me! 300 years
Sad
Midhav Ravindran yep
It's pretty damn big, I can at least say that.
Justin is an intellectual
duhhhh
Don't you have a life?
Do you even watch the vids or just comment on as many vids as you can?
Dude i see u everywhere
Great video, very informative, really enjoyed the background segment
I love it when inventors and visionary personalities are given highlights and attention. We need to start celebrating inventors and innovators. Enough spotlights on movie stars, reality stars and pop musicians. Love ColdFusion! Keep inspiring us.
Softbank sold there Flipkart share to walmart.
Softbank made a profit of $12 billion in that sale I think.
No, they made $4bn.
Oh, I thought softbank`s share is $4 billion then they sold it to walmart for $16 billion.
@@shojun11 hi maneki
I'm really motivated by the story of SoftBank's founder. Another person in my hero list. I hope I'll meet him in person one day.
ashutosh Mishra watch the video again.. just the interview part... He said he was motivated by a book and called the author more than 60 time! When that didn't work he himself flew to Tokyo to talk to the author.
ashutosh Mishra I said I'm motivated by his story. I didn't say he is my new idol. Why don't you go and learn what's the difference between hero and Idol. Besides why don't you mind your own fucking business.
ashutosh Mishra Yeah your right all it takes an asshole to trigger me.
Great video as always Dagogo !! Thanks for the in-depth research.
This was amazing as always
How do you get all this quality information about different companies in depth?
downside up! Using internet other TH-cam channels like coldfusion
I think he watches ColdFusion
Good idea is video about Panasonic Corporation - strategic partner of Tesla Motor!
Absolutely amazing! Very much enjoyed. Excited for the next one.
I always look forward for your latest videos, Thanks and keep on doing the good job
Nice video my guy
Cheers Jonathan!
Thanks for replying man rely appreciate it.
Long live CF!
Through bout the years this channel's content has been pure gold.
I love your channel and I also understand that researching these things takes time but don't keep us waiting too long for your vids :c
I'm unable to understand why is coldfusion still the most underrated channel on this platform?
Soft( from Software ) + Bank( from Economics ) = SoftBank 🤔
same as his expertise !!!
Love your videos man! Amazing content
This is what you call a quality content. Amazing!
Son is a killer investor. He is playing Judo moves never seen in the entire investment world in recent modern history. I'm curious to see what Softbank will turn out to be in the next 20 years or so ~
Yeah. with wework and Uber, softbank will vaule 1 Trillion in the future.
Never heard of Sequoia Capital? Sequoia Capital has invested in over 250 companies since 1972, including Apple, Google, Oracle, PayPal, Stripe, TH-cam, Instagram, Yahoo! and WhatsApp. The combined current public market value for these companies is over $1.4 trillion, equivalent to 22 percent of Nasdaq.Its portfolio is mainly in financial services, healthcare, outsourcing, and technology. As of 2017, they have exited in 68 initial public offerings and 203 acquisitions.
softbank who?
Softbank is riding *the wave of automation and digitalization.*
It's easy to make money in a growing market. Let's hope they also invest into electric cars.
Thanks for the analysis!
I love coldfusion. You guys always have the best mini documentaries on TH-cam
They also own Uber and Grab (Asia version of Uber)
"Come invention come" Exactly like Anime style.
I just love your How big series😍
Thank you so much for this video! Very informative! Like it!
Pls do how big is Mitsubishi thanks
*_and we thought Apple was big_*
poppet pala apple is much bigger .
TH-cam User
LOL if you are going to consider Market cap as a means of 'Big' next year you will see the biggest IPO of this century ie Saudi ARAMCO going public with an expected market cap of 3-7Trillion .There are other unlisted stateowned companies that are much bigger than Apple or Amazon if you are taking market cap as a means.
big if true
SnippingTool
fortune.com/2017/03/28/saudi-arabia-aramco-ipo-tax/ then there is state owned chinese comp like fortune.com/2015/07/22/china-global-500-government-owned/
Then there are companies from the past like The dutch East India company that was valued at 7 Trillion
"The Dutch East India Company was the first company to go public on the world's first stock exchange. It raised enough capital in 1602 to later create a globe-straddling multinational conglomerate, with over 70,000 employees at its peak. That didn't make it immune to irrational exuberance -- its market capitalization would reach 78 million Dutch guilders at the height of Tulipmania, since at least a few investors must have wanted to buy something more stable than the Beanie Babies of the 17th century. That would place its modern-day valuation in the $7.4 trillion range, making the Dutch East India Company the largest company in history."
@Altair Slavery does generate a lot of wealth.....
Proud to see and Amadi-Ama boy doing so well in tech info. Kudos to you brother
Great video ! Keep it up man !
Do a video on how big the Rothschild Empire is
How is a family a conspiracy?
Eli Bergeman it is a fact that the Rothschilds are one of the richest families in the world. How they made their money and what they do with it is a different story
and what exactly is the big conspiracy?
Smh. Get y'all tin foil heads outta here.
Aaron : LOLS NONE OF THESE POSER PIGLETS ARE GOING TO EVEN COME REMOTELY CLOSE TO DOING THAT CAUSE EVEN THIS PLATFORM BASICALLY IS ROTHCHILDS PROPERTY LOLS SOOO :D
i always see their ads especially the talking shiba dog
Really inspiring story of Masayoshi Son. Thank you!
Man keep up the great Work. Love every Vid you post. Please don't ever leave youtube :)
Make. A vedio on mahindra
DUDE!!!!!!
Now I wonder....
Whats your long term plan???

Wow... very interesting! As always, Thanks for making
I love your work man! Keep up the great work!
I never heard of them. Tbh :/
Me too
You guys must live in a fucking cave.

Yup, not going so well..

You sir are a amazing creator!
Goosebumps on every video..

The name is in the pounding
SoftBank = investment banking
The end
I cant believe how much this video blew my mind! Thank you for the huge inspiration!
So inspirational, thank you Coldfusion!
10:05 The audio in the narration changed for about three seconds. Different recording session?
Safe to say.
Who tf cares
yo Alex
People who are very sensitive and have an IQ over three standard deviations above average such as myself.
yo Alex I care :)
in other words JAPAN owns everything !!!
why? He is a business and not a country. They same could be said about Amazon, Apple and Google
@@ulrichleukam1068 how Apple ?!
Love your videos man
Can't wait for the next one
Great as usual. Very interesting, and I often listen to the song at the beginning as well
Welp I thought boston dynamics is pentagon owned operation
mtksbctk I thought they only owned DARPA and NASA, most projects are supplied and tested by private company eg. SpaceX and Boeing
It was being funded by DARPA for a while, but discovered that it couldn't make killing machines quiet enough to be practical, so it sold it to Google, which sold it to SoftBank.
GDPR well bad call on DARPA's side, boston dynamics robots with AI will be quite lethal
do how big is lg
Smaller than Samsung, but still very significant part of SK industry -- a comparison between both would be interesting.
th-cam.com/video/p3EdrT0V85s/w-d-xo.html
Gus Johnson i bet you got ips monitor or an oled tv?
I know LG stands for Lucky and GeumSung (GoldStar), which were two separate companies before they merged, but I thought that GoldStar was the one that made electronics before the merger.
i hope he does this video
Man, your presentation skill is just awesome!!!
1:56 wow! that's a fantastic piece of advice!
Alibaba soon?
isnt it owned by softbank?
Softbank is the biggest shareholder (~30%), but that doesn't mean Softbank owns Alibaba.
Biggest shareholder is JackMa
NO. Jack has less than 10%.
"SoftBank. Its one of those companies you here a lot about, but you're not sure what they really do..."
Umm, WRONG.
NEver, ever, EVER heard of "SoftBank".
Ever.
A very unique thing to see someone so dedicated to get those opportunities.
Great video by the way
Inspiring as usual keep up bro
Only 3 weeks WUT!
I wasted my life then!
So do we all agree we will prolly have androids in like another 20 years?
Hudrey Aepburn the rate it's being done I think less then.
Maybe 30 as my prediction.
Doubt it. Not without some major breakthroughs in a number of broad categories including mobile computing and energy storage. Besides the technological obstacles, the notion of widespread deployment of androids seems to me mostly like a hubristic fantasy. The human form is an ultimate but mediocre compromise of capabilities that is inherently not terribly good at anything in particular. Robotics and AI will be decentralized and specialized. Why make one insanely complex and expensive androids when you can, for the same cost, create dozens of simpler but highly specialized machines that are each better at their task?
Case in point. In the 1950s it was imagined that one day you would have, for example, a robot chauffeur to drive your car for you. But nobody even conceived of the idea that the car itself would be automated and drive itself. Yet the latter is what is actually happening, because it is so much easier to simply build a fairly basic intelligence into the large and already expensive design of the vehicle, than it is to build a very complicated and versatile android that can do a thousand tasks, but still can’t drive the car as well as the car can drive itself.
EnDSchultz that’s some good counter points and I agree and welcome any criticism. I feel that helps progress the technology. Openly transmitting ideas and thoughts.
Well we want androids/robots that are like us not just because of some fantasy. Well not entirely lol. But because we make this world exclusively for humans and well having a robot that can navigate and have full range of motion as a human is to have computers help us in those situations.
Examples being elderly care and huge crisis t dangerous for humans. Jus look at the 2015 DARPA robotics challenge and look how hard it used to be for robots to navigate simple human obstacles.
I already have an Android phone. Guess i'm from the future.
Another great video bro. 👍🏽👍🏽
Inspirational and informative video...Thanks man once again:)
