1:00
When did everything start to go wrong?
1:04
I've been alone my whole life.
1:08
Loved by no one. Needed by no one.
1:14
In the midst of abject poverty. I had no
1:17
companion save for my own loneliness.
1:22
That's why I made it my goal to make
1:25
something of myself. To obtain wealth,
1:28
prestige, everything and then some.
1:34
I worked harder than anyone else,
1:37
endured more than anyone else, to reap
1:43
But then I came to a realization.
1:46
Neither wealth nor prestige could
1:53
There was only ever one thing I desired.
2:15
You're dismissing me from the R&D
2:21
>> It seems the majority has voted in favor
2:23
of that. Yes. Which means this emergency
2:26
board meeting is now concluded.
2:28
>> Elaborate, Tashiro. What's the meaning
2:32
>> It's exactly as you've heard. We ask
2:34
that you take a step back from the R&D
2:37
>> Come again. You are aware this is my
2:40
company, right? Do you think you can do
2:42
whatever you please with it? I do
2:44
apologize, sir, but please try to
2:47
understand our stance.
2:49
You saw the outcome yourself just now,
2:51
did you not? Let's put this matter
2:53
behind us. Though you won't be as
2:56
hands-on in the future, you will still
2:58
be able to oversee the company. We
3:01
simply wish to ease the burden on your
3:06
>> You want me out of the way? Is that it?
3:09
After all, the chairman's little more
3:11
than a figurehead. This is obviously a
3:17
>> You've been overstepping your
3:20
inflating budgets, investing in
3:22
unprofitable sectors, overhauling
3:24
project after project.
3:27
At this rate, the whole company will go
3:29
under. That's why we felt some distance
3:34
>> Everything I do is necessary for the
3:36
company, for our success.
3:39
Oska, you're the R&D chief. Surely you
3:44
>> Sir, if I may, I believe this to be the
3:48
right decision. What?
3:51
While your projects are certainly
3:53
innovative, the reality is that we're
3:55
unlikely to see any profit in the next
3:59
You understand, even if we're investing
4:02
in our future, we still need to put
4:04
dinner on the table at the end of the
4:05
day. We can't even afford to reward our
4:08
employees for all their hard work.
4:11
Focusing on immediate returns will only
4:15
>> I'm afraid our decision is final. Thank
4:18
you for your service, Chairman Mina.
4:26
>> They were the ones who had worshiped me,
4:28
followed me, trusted me,
4:32
having spent the entirety of my life
4:34
alone. Their presence had brought me
4:39
But deep down, some part of me knew that
4:50
just where did it all go wrong?
