Yakken Moten” comment causes a big firestorm and a big argument with Holliemon… “Truth of bankruptcy” told by “a woman business owner who has been under fire a lot”.

Why he said, “I don’t think I’m popular with women.

To move people’s hearts, you have to really bite the bullet. I think I got a good response because I challenged the audience with my true self and not for entertainment.

Former female entrepreneur, Airina Hirakawa, 32, said, “I think the response was because I really challenged myself, not for entertainment, but for the truth. She is currently showing her “first gravure” in the current issue of “FRIDAY,” but she says she has had a tumultuous life so far, including experiencing numerous flames. We interviewed her about her past hardships and new hopes.

It was the documentary program “Nontitle” that changed her destiny. The project brought together men and women who had never met before to create a new business. During the discussion, she said something to one of the male participants that caused a firestorm.

I don’t think you’ll be popular.

This comment was spread all over the Internet, and since she had pink hair when she appeared on the show, she was even nicknamed “Aosuji Pink” (blue-striped pink) in reference to the blue streak on her forehead.

When we asked Ms. Hirakawa why she made such a comment, she replied: …….

She replied, “I was talking about how my husband was having an affair with one of the company’s staff members, and that was the beginning of my comment. I thought the conversation was going to start on a positive note, saying, ‘I know you had a tough time, but it would be nice if you could work hard in a new way,’ but the conversation went in a completely different direction. I felt that we couldn’t have a dialogue as human beings, and my emotional words came out unintentionally.

The next program that caused a stir on the Internet was “REAL VALUE,” featuring Takafumi Horie, Yuta Misaki, Yuji Mizoguchi, and others. This was a program about proposing a new business, but it became a major topic of conversation when the participants shed tears because they could not endure the tough questions from the senior entrepreneurs.

I regret that I didn’t prepare my business plan well enough,” he said. It may sound like an excuse, but I had to make my presentation in a time crunch. But if I had not decided to appear on the show at this time, the opportunity might never have come my way again. So I have no regrets about participating in the program.

REAL VALUE It was “REAL VALUE,” but I didn’t expect the clipping video to be played so much!　Actually, I’m in sales now, and “REAL VALUE I often get appointments because of “REAL VALUE”. People who watch my videos often think I’m a “bad guy,” so I’m often told, “When I meet you, you’re a decent person. (Laughs) “

She became famous not only because of her antagonists, but also because of her fans.

However…

Sexual and power harassment from business partners and peers.

Last year, she was found to be heavily in debt, and the companion-casting company she represents went bankrupt; social networking sites went wild once again.

She said, “I went into bankruptcy after many difficult times, including childbirth, divorce, raising a child on my own, the COVID-19 crisis, a car accident, and cervical cancer. Especially after giving birth, I felt like my brain cells had died, and sometimes just dealing with bills was difficult.”

What Ms. Hirakawa experienced was the so-called “Mommy Brain. After childbirth, memory, concentration, and the ability to think temporarily decline, and Ms. Hirakawa experienced a state in which she was “unable to do the things I used to be able to do.

He says, “I didn’t have any reliable friends to turn to at such times. Anti-competitive attacks were damaging, but even more so was the experience of being betrayed in real life. In addition, perhaps because I was a female president, I also suffered from sexual harassment and power harassment from business partners and peers. The accumulation of such incidents made me distrust people even more.

Ms. Hirakawa has truly hit rock bottom. However, she has no intention of giving up hope.

The most important thing for me is what kind of backbone I can show to my children. I have tried various programs in the past to show my children that I will not give up on my dreams.

I am still working as a sales representative and preparing “seriously” to take on new challenges. I will soon be able to announce a project that will help women earn a little money and live independently.

Hirakawa’s mother also gave her a strong push, telling her not to be influenced by the words of those around her, to protect her daughter and live the life she wants to lead, and not to worry about what is normal anymore.

She also said, “Don’t worry about being normal now. I experienced a firestorm when I appeared in “Nontitle,” but looking back on it now, I think it was an opportunity for me to look at myself objectively. Whenever things went wrong at work or at home, I wondered why things were the way they were. But being on the program helped me to look objectively at those aspects of myself that were not good enough.

In fact, she says that she will be involved in a new project she is about to embark on, but in a different way than as a “manager.

For the sake of women in the world and for the sake of her beloved daughter, Airina Hirakawa is carving out her own path in the wilderness.
