Hi everyone. Welcome to the show. I'm Jenny Silver and I was vorn in New Jersey in the US. I've also lived in California, Illinois, Michigan and Florida. After graduating from university, where I majored in English and Asian Sudies, I worked for a video game retail company in California. I'm looking forward to hosting the show with Mr. Shibata.

How did Emily comment when her English was praised?

Hi, Risa. I'm Daniel Kain from London. I'm the CCO here at WCS.
Hello. Nice to see you, Mr. Kein.
And from our side we also have Emily, head of Private Sales. She oversees our global client list.
Hi, Risa. I'm Emily. Good to see you. Can you hear us clearly?
Hello, Emily. Yes, your voices are clear. Although the screen was frozen temporarily.
The connection hasn't been great since this morning. If worse comes to worse, we'll stick to the audio only.
Hope it'll not be the case.
You speak great English.
Whereabouts did you grow up?
Well, actually in Yamanashi Japan. I went to New Zealand for a year on a working holiday visa. So maybe that helped.
Yamanashi and New Zealand. Quite the viticultural background. Perhaps you are destined to work for the wine business.
