Today I want to tell everyone about that I went to Toyota Museum to visit, and I am going to explain the history to everyone.
First, a person named Toyoda Sakichi was borned, and he saw his mom is making clothes, and it is very hard to make, so he decided to make the machine easier to use, and you can make clothes easier, so he keep trying, at last, he succeeded.
The first machine that he created isn't very good, so he kept improving, and he made a lot of machines that can make clothes, but it still needed hand to pull and push.
Then he made an auto-sewing machine, so he went to America, and see their sewing machine, and he thought their machines are better than his, so he tried to make his machine better than American's.
At last, he made a lot of machines, and he has over 50 machines that really can work, so he became very strong, and he created a company called Toyoda.
This company is for making clothes, and it is all auto-sewing, so he didn't need a lot of workers and the speed is fast, but then Toyoda Sakichi died.
Then the Toyoda company is in Toyoda Kichiro's hand, who is Toyoda Sakichi's son, and he sold out all of the sewing machine patents.
Everyone wants to know why he sold out all of the sewing machine patents, it is because in that year, everyone is buying cars, so if Toyoda kept making clothes, they won't have future.
Then Toyoda Kichiro started to make cars, and first he made cars by wood models, and he made the outer surface of the car.
Then he started to make outer surface by hand, but it is too slow, so he started to make machines, and it is very cool, I also saw it in the museum, and it is very cool.
Then Toyoda Kichiro changed the company name from Toyoda to Toyota, it has three reasons, the first on is Toyoda is a person's name, but it should now be a public company so they changed to Toyota.
The second reason is Toyota sounds better than Toyoda, because 'ta' is more clear. And the third reason is Toyota's Japanese Handwriting is 8 steps, and 8 means rich.
I think today I learned a lot, like making anything, you need to see what other people are doing, and you can catch up the world's new invention, and try to make one, too, then you can get money.
