Sharp Corporation

Sharp Corporation (シャープ株式会社, Shāpu Kabushiki-gaisha) is a Japanese multinational corporation that designs and manufactures electronic products. Headquartered in Abeno-ku, Osaka, Japan, Sharp employed 49,096 people worldwide as of March 2015. The company was founded in September 1912 and takes its name from one of its founder's first inventions, the Ever-Sharp mechanical pencil, which was invented by Tokuji Hayakawa (早川徳次) in 1915.

As of 2013, Sharp Corporation is the tenth-largest, by market share, television manufacturer in the world. In Japan it has been a long-time leader. Sharp has at times also been the most popular mobile phone brand in the Japanese market, but is currently third biggest.

History

In 1912, Tokuji Hayakawa (早川徳次) founded a metal workshop in Tokyo. The first of his many inventions was a snap buckle named 'Tokubijo'. Another of his inventions was the Ever-Sharp mechanical pencil in 1915, from which the Sharp Corporation derived its name. After the pencil business was destroyed by the 1923 Great Kantō earthquake, the company relocated to Osaka and began designing the first generation of Japanese radio sets. These went on sale in 1925. In 1953, Sharp started producing television sets.

Du denkst Du bist was besonderes,
hey doch das bist Du nicht
Du bist ein kleiner Arsch aus gutem Elternhaus
doch ein Skinhead, das bist Du nicht
Refr.: Sharp, Sharp, Du hast keinen Schwanz
Sharp, Sharp, weil Du garnichts kannst
Sharp, Sharp, Du Hippie ohne Haar
Sharp, Sharp, hahaha
Du Gayskin!
Studierst irgendein Fach an der Uni und wohnst in einer WG
gezahlt wird alles von Papa und Mama
Wenn man Dich trifft, bettelst Du:
Tu mir nicht weh!
