Fade up from black.
'...Enter Saikawa who just learned that he will be targeted by Ghosn to be relieved of CEO duties. Some of the executive committee members start thinking who would be the next CEO from this circle. Oh no, there are NO Japanese members who can possibly take the CEO 'promotion' other than the 'gaijin' members... Saikawa and his camp concoct the story as we have been reading since day one. "This will 'save' Nissan from being lead by a non-Japanese member!"
Ghosn's men in the inner circle play "Brutus" to stay close to Saikawa but in reality keep their status to possibly be promoted to CEO and to eventually 'pardon' any misdoings by Ghosn and Kelly. "
Now that Nissan has been indicted as well, at the end of this story, CG and GK will be exonerated and HS will be relieved. Nissan will have a non-Japanese as CEO and the Alliance in tact, but bruised.

others simply oppose the use of English in station names, which they see as unnecessary or inappropriate.
Let's be honest Tokyoites, this is the MAIN point of complaint.
