00:01Everyone, don't you feel like you can make a lot of money with Jimen?
00:06Recently, the TV series with the title Jimen is very popular,
00:10and it seems like you can make a lot of money with Tochi.
00:14In the first place, there are a lot of Jimen.
00:18So, today's Gatchiriman Day is
00:21Jimen business that makes a lot of money.
00:24While the staff was watching the footsteps,
00:27they searched thoroughly.
00:30As expected, it was there.
00:33In Jimen business,
00:36the company that is going
00:38that machine that flattens the ground
00:41It's not just rolling around.
00:44There was a surprising trick inside.
00:48The wheels vibrate.
00:51Just by sprinkling water on the black sand,
00:57What does it mean?
01:03It's 30 minutes to dig up the secret of Okarin.
01:09Good morning.
01:10Today is Jimen business.
01:13It's a proper business to introduce today.
01:16It's not like Jimen.
01:18It's not illegal.
01:20We will introduce people who are doing business properly.
01:23Let's go to the ground.
01:28Good morning.
01:29Good morning.
01:30Good morning.
01:31Good morning.
01:33Good morning.
01:35Jimen business
01:47There is a machine called DADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADA
01:50I see.
01:51Jimen business
02:00I won.
02:02Let's introduce today's guests, Mr. Takuro Morinaga and Mr. Yuji.
02:07Nice to meet you.
02:09Before you joined the entertainment industry, you were working on the construction site, right?
02:13Yes, I was.
02:14When I was in junior high school, I worked at a construction company.
02:17I wanted to dismantle the building and make it a parking lot.
02:21So I did a job of laying concrete all over it.
02:25Was it hard?
02:26It was really hard.
02:28I had to do a lot of work by hand.
02:32I see.
02:33You had to do a lot of work.
02:34Yes, I had to do a lot of work.
02:35But I really have to thank you.
02:37Because of you, we can run on the road normally.
02:40That's right.
02:41The ground business hit a high growth period at once.
02:45It's been over 60 years.
02:47It's been over 60 years.
02:48The market is growing even before that.
02:52Are you doing something innovative?
02:54I'm making great progress in technology.
02:56Are you making progress?
02:57I think I can see that today.
02:59Mocar's ground business is a company that covers the ground all over Japan.
03:06The first company I visited was a company called Maeda Road in Akishima City, Tokyo.
03:13Mr. Murata is a technology promoter.
03:15What kind of ground business do you do?
03:18We manufacture asphalt for asphalt covering.
03:22In addition, we use asphalt for road covering construction.
03:27That's right.
03:28Maeda Road is a company that makes asphalt, which is the material of the road around us,
03:33and uses it to cover the road.
03:37Moreover, next year marks the 100th anniversary of the establishment of Maeda Road.
03:43The annual income is over 2.5 billion yen.
03:48That's amazing.
03:49By the way, how do you make asphalt?
03:53Let's take a look at what he's making.
03:57First of all, the ingredients are sand and stones.
04:02This is a dryer that heats the sand and stones.
04:07A dryer?
04:08Yes.
04:09It's huge.
04:10Yes.
04:11He heats the sand and stones with a blazing fire.
04:16He mixes the heated sand, stones, and stones with asphalt.
04:21Is this asphalt?
04:22This is asphalt produced from crude oil.
04:25A black lump?
04:26Yes. At room temperature, it looks like a solid.
04:29Actually, this is asphalt.
04:32It's a black lump that remains after gasoline, light oil, and gas are removed from crude oil.
04:39It's a lump of crude oil.
04:40When heated, it becomes a muddy liquid.
04:45When mixed with the heated sand and stones, this is asphalt.
04:52He made it at the factory.
04:55Before it cools down, he spreads it on the road in a hurry.
04:59I see.
05:00He spreads it on the road and flattens it.
05:04He did it.
05:05When it cools down to room temperature, the asphalt sticks to the sand and stones like glue.
05:13It sticks to the sand and stones.
05:17Maeda-douro, which makes asphalt and covers the ground all over Japan,
05:24has developed a new asphalt.
05:29This is...
05:33This is a mild patch.
05:34A mild patch?
05:35Yes.
05:37This is a mild patch, a mysterious asphalt that solidifies with something.
05:42It costs 2,000 yen per bag, which is more expensive than normal asphalt.
05:48The annual sales are 2.5 billion yen, which is a big hit.
05:54When you open the bag, it looks like normal asphalt.
05:58It's cold, isn't it?
05:59It's not hot, so you can touch it by hand.
06:03How do you use it?
06:06For example, like this.
06:09I use it where the road is broken and there is a hole.
06:14He puts a mild patch in the hole where the asphalt is broken.
06:20Next, he pours water on it.
06:22He pours water on it.
06:23It solidifies by pouring water on it.
06:26I see.
06:27He pours water on it.
06:30Does it really solidify?
06:33Finally, he steps on the back of his foot.
06:36It's still a little soft.
06:39He has to wait for an hour.
06:43Then...
06:46It's solidified.
06:47Is it okay?
06:48It's okay.
06:52It's true.
06:56It's hard.
06:58This mild patch can solidify by pouring water at room temperature.
07:05It's a very convenient asphalt.
07:08Let's see how hard it is.
07:13Is it okay to hit it with a hammer?
07:15It's okay.
07:16Is it okay?
07:17It's okay.
07:21It's pretty hard.
07:22No matter how hard the staff hits it...
07:26It's okay.
07:27It doesn't break at all.
07:30It's solid.
07:33Murata says that this mild patch is very convenient to fix the slightly broken part of the asphalt.
07:40I think it can be used for other things.
07:42Normal asphalt is sold in large quantities.
07:48It's hard to carry a little bit of hot asphalt because it's easy to cool down.
07:54But this mild patch can be used at room temperature.
07:58It's sold at a price of 10 kilos.
08:02It's very convenient to fill a small hole in the pavement and a part of the garden.
08:10This is very good for your own garden.
08:12That's right.
08:13Actually, I just received an advice from my friend.
08:17It's hard to grow weeds in a small garden.
08:21He told me to pour concrete here.
08:24It costs a lot of money.
08:27It costs a lot of labor and money for professionals.
08:31It's revolutionary that you can do it yourself.
08:33That's right.
08:34All you have to do is roll it up and step on it.
08:36This is very good.
08:38But why doesn't the mild patch solidify at room temperature?
08:43Does it solidify when wet?
08:47That's because I put this in.
08:51What is that?
08:53It's a yellowish liquid.
08:56This is a liquid at room temperature.
08:59It's a special oil that solidifies when mixed with water.
09:04When oil is added to asphalt, which is actually a hot liquid,
09:10liquid oil enters between the grains of the asphalt.
09:16Even at room temperature, the oil remains liquid.
09:21When water is added to it, the oil between the grains of the asphalt solidifies.
09:32An hour later.
09:34It's true.
09:35It's solid.
09:37It's solid.
09:40The number of years it took to develop this mild patch is more than 10 years.
09:45It solidifies when it rains.
09:50Maeda-douro is solidified with a mild patch.
09:55Next, we visited a company called Sakai Heavy Industries in Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture.
10:02This is Mr. Moritsuna from the Development Department.
10:04What kind of ground business is he doing here?
10:08This is a road roller used for road construction.
10:14I've seen it.
10:17You've all seen it at construction sites, right?
10:21That heavy machine with a huge roller rolling around.
10:25Sakai Heavy Industries is a company that makes road rollers that flatten the ground and solidify it.
10:32A company that makes road rollers.
10:34The domestic share is 70%.
10:38What is the annual sales?
10:42It's 3.3 billion yen.
10:44Wow, that's a lot of money.
10:49This is Sakai Heavy Industries' latest road roller.
10:58I don't know what's so great about it.
11:01If you look closely...
11:04There's no one in the driver's seat.
11:09This is a self-propelled road roller that moves on its own.
11:15Because it's unmanned, it can go to dangerous places such as cliffs and disaster sites.
11:21Because it has a high-precision GPS built in, it can be self-propelled without waste.
11:27The ground industry is paying attention to this.
11:30I thought this was amazing.
11:32Actually, that site is really hot.
11:36It's not half-baked.
11:38You can't lower the temperature.
11:39So the people driving there are like being in a sauna.
11:42It's pretty tight.
11:44They take a break from time to time.
11:46But this doesn't take a break.
11:48It's a GPS.
11:49You can say that it's solidifying while everyone is taking a break.
11:53This is amazing.
11:55What's so great about Sakai Heavy Industries' road rollers?
12:01That is...
12:03It's got a lot of power to solidify the ground.
12:07It's not heavy.
12:08A road roller is a heavy roller that weighs more than one ton.
12:15By pushing the ground, it tightens the gaps between the soil and stones.
12:21It's a machine that makes the ground flat.
12:26Of course, in order to solidify the ground more firmly,
12:30the heavier the roller, the better.
12:35The heavier the roller, the more difficult it is to carry it to the construction site.
12:43That's right.
12:44So Sakai Heavy Industries came up with an idea.
12:47By adding a certain amount of force to the weight of the roller,
12:51you can transfer 2 to 3 times the weight of the vehicle to the ground.
12:56The road roller weighs 7 tons.
13:02By using a certain technique, you can apply about 20 tons of force to the ground.
13:11What is a certain technique?
13:15In fact, the wheels of this roller vibrate.
13:18Oh, I see.
13:19Yes.
13:20If you put a bottle on it, it's like this.
13:26It's shaking a lot.
13:29It vibrates while running.
13:31I don't know at first glance.
13:34That's right.
13:35It vibrates the roller.
13:38It's shaking.
13:40That's why the weight of the roller is about 3 times.
13:44If you think about it,
13:48the roller sinks to the ground.
13:54The weight that vibrates in the roller is the high-speed rotation.
13:59The roller hits the ground with this vibration.
14:05As a result, a 7-ton road roller applies 20 tons of force to the ground.
14:11That's amazing.
14:13And one more thing.
14:15You can see the greatness of Sakai Heavy Industries' road roller by looking at how it is made.
14:21That's why we specially let you enter the manufacturing plant.
14:27This is Mr. Morobishi, a roller craftsman.
14:31I've been making rollers for about 27 years.
14:33That's amazing.
14:35What's so difficult about making rollers?
14:40It's the most difficult thing to get close to the core.
14:44The roller is made of a thick piece of iron.
14:48This machine is called a roll bender.
14:53The iron is bent little by little.
14:59It's shaped like a circular roller.
15:03It's very difficult to make a beautiful circle.
15:09Mr. Morobishi carefully adjusts the strength of the iron.
15:15Really?
15:16Can people do this?
15:19He checks to make sure that the circle is in the right shape.
15:26He adjusts it little by little by turning it right or left.
15:39Mr. Morobishi says that the temperature of the iron changes slightly depending on the temperature of the day.
15:48And if you bend the iron too much, you can't get it back to its original shape.
15:54It's a one-shot game.
15:58And it takes about 40 minutes to work.
16:07It's finally done.
16:11If you look at it, there's no distortion.
16:14It's a beautiful circle.
16:17I don't think I've been doing this alone for 10 to 20 years.
16:23Only two out of 300 employees can do this.
16:31Mr. Morobishi is amazing.
16:34You have to reduce it.
16:36The world's largest industry wins with a road roller.
16:41I'm a little surprised.
16:43I think that the defense industry can do it by machine.
16:48There are things that people can do better.
16:51It's amazing.
16:53Can I ask you a simple question?
16:55I wonder if we need to harden the ground.
16:58There's a cavity between the bones.
17:01By reducing the impact by 1%
17:05It's about 10% less.
17:08I see.
17:10Profitable ground business
17:14Next is Nakamura Construction in Ube City, Yamaguchi Prefecture.
17:19This is a company that does road construction in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
17:24It's a middle-class construction company.
17:30What is it?
17:31In addition to the main business, it is now inventing a certain ground product.
17:35It seems to be increasing sales.
17:39Since it was sold three years ago, sales have increased more than twice a year.
17:45This year's sales are more than 100 million yen.
17:51In just three years, the company's sales have increased by one-fourth.
17:57According to Nakamura Construction, the keyword is the road surface.
18:05What is the profitable ground product?
18:09This is a dry mat.
18:13A dry mat?
18:15This is Nakamura Construction's profitable ground product, a dry mat.
18:2048,000 yen for one.
18:24The dry mat seems to be an invention that reinforces the road surface.
18:30In fact, the reinforcement of the road surface is very important now.
18:37Recently, there have been many accidents in various parts of Japan.
18:42In addition to that, the road surface is deteriorating.
18:50If the road surface can be treated, it is a product of great attention.
18:55But what did you do to treat the road surface so far?
19:00Until now, the road surface was covered with a blue sheet.
19:04Until now, the road surface was covered with a blue sheet.
19:09In that case, the sheet may be torn or blown away by the wind.
19:13Above all, the same road surface may collapse again.
19:19The solution to this problem is this dry mat.
19:24What does this mean?
19:26If you look at the actual use of the road surface, you can see it.
19:31The company's back mountain road surface.
19:35The dry mat is laid from the top of the road surface to the bottom.
19:41Next, a pin is inserted at the end to fix it.
19:47And from here is the amazing height of the dry mat.
19:52Then, please pour the water.
19:56Start pouring water until the whole body becomes wet.
20:04It will harden by pouring water.
20:07It will start to dry in about three days.
20:11That's right. This dry mat hardens by pouring water.
20:18Even if you don't actually pour water, it's okay if it rains.
20:24After three days, I checked it.
20:28Wow!
20:31It's really hard.
20:35It's completely different from a blue sheet.
20:37If it's a blue sheet, it may be useless in about half a year.
20:42According to Mr. Nakamura, he hasn't had a dry mat for about 10 years since it was installed.
20:50But why does it harden just by pouring water?
20:55There's cement in the mat.
20:57Oh, it's cement.
20:59Yes, the dry mat has a three-layer structure.
21:04The first layer is easy to pass water.
21:08The third layer does not pass water.
21:11So, the second layer of cement can absorb water and harden.
21:19I see.
21:21This is a new invention in the ground industry.
21:25It was invented by Mr. Nakamura himself, who is 75 years old.
21:31What's more, it turned out to be a surprising invention.
21:36I see.
21:40A dry mat that solves the problem of the corrosion of the car door.
21:44The invention turned out to be a surprising invention.
21:49I broke my hand.
21:53I went to the doctor.
21:56Is there any emergency treatment for the blue sheet?
22:01Mr. Nakamura, who was always worried, fell down the stairs and broke his arm.
22:11That's why Mr. Nakamura was shocked.
22:15When I went to the doctor, he gave me a cast.
22:20It hardens in about 10 minutes.
22:27I thought, this is it.
22:29The wet tape is wrapped around his arm.
22:33When it dries, it becomes a hard cast.
22:37It's the same as this.
22:39The sheet on the car is hard.
22:44Mr. Nakamura immediately started developing products.
22:50The dry mat was tested about 100 times.
22:55However...
22:57If you lay a dry mat with cement on the floor many times,
23:02the cement will flow down in one direction and become uneven.
23:08In that case, if you happen to open the cardboard box to take out the tools,
23:14Mr. Nakamura was surprised again.
23:19There was a piece of cardboard left here.
23:22I remembered when I saw this cross section.
23:25If you look closely at the cross section of the cardboard box,
23:28there are three layers.
23:30The middle is wavy.
23:33If you put it in there, it won't shift.
23:35That's right.
23:36If you put cement in here,
23:38even if you tilt it, it won't be washed away.
23:40The whole sheet should be evenly thick.
23:44So I put a wavy net on the second layer of the dry mat.
23:50I put cement in there.
23:53Then, even if I tilted the mat,
23:56the cement didn't flow down and it didn't become uneven.
24:01It took 12 years to complete the project.
24:07It took 13 years.
24:08I don't know if it's a mountain of treasure.
24:11The president says that about 60% of Japan's land is made of concrete.
24:17Mr. Nakamura's construction is a success with a dry mat.
24:21Compared to the blue sheet, it's very innovative.
24:24It's very innovative.
24:26I think it's not just a concrete application,
24:29but it's going to expand to various areas in the future.
24:34For example, when I'm doing solar power generation,
24:38grass grows from below.
24:40If it's a normal dry mat, it'll break through and grow.
24:44I asked a contractor to cut down the grass by hand.
24:48If you put that on, the grass won't grow.
24:52That's amazing.
24:53We've seen a lot of things.
24:55Finally, we'll ask Mr. Morinaga.
24:57Please tell us about your new land business.
25:02See you later.
25:21Please tell us about your new land business.
25:25It's an asphalt finisher for a hunter machine.
25:29Asphalt finisher?
25:31In the world of children,
25:33road rollers are nose-shaped.
25:36However, road rollers don't have asphalt.
25:41So who's on the asphalt?
25:45It's this guy.
25:46There's a machine called an asphalt finisher.
25:49It's the best one there, and it's very technical.
25:53I'm the only one who gets attention in the world of manzai.
25:58I want my partners to see it, too.
26:02Matsukiyo, the largest drugstore in Japan, is amazing.
26:06It's a drug with no name.
26:08It's a strange radio wave.
26:09It's a misaligned bandage.
26:11It's all meaningful.
26:13There's a reason why the president has piercings.
26:15It's really interesting.
26:24Cool!
