I believe Yazawa-san already knows, but, the latest poll shows that a total of 43% of the respondents say that they expect, or they may expect a new party from us. That’s higher than the current ruling party’s approval rating No, using figures from a survey asking Do you expect a new party is just. That’s just comparable to Which party do you support, right?
Our age has come for sure! That’s decided! It has to be the case! And it shall happen! If we don’t scrap and rebuild this country now, the country ruled by those with a vested interest will bring us to doom! We’re running out of time Governor Murata’s getting passionate. Yazawa-san looked at me.
What do you think? I’m already introduced as Jii-chan’s relative so he asks me politely.
He will be meeting with Kakka later, and so if you talk to him instead of me, I’m sure that Murata-sensei’s hopes will reach Kakka Yazawa-san, you’re going to pass the baton to me now?
Oh, I see. You’re going to meet with Kouzuki-san? Governor Murata looked at me with appraising eyes and said.
What do you think after hearing my story? What did you feel? What do you think? I’d like to hear the opinion of people of your age Haa. Err.
Look, I don’t really know much about politics, but.
Oh, I see. It can’t be helped. Then that’s just poor education! Your school hasn’t taught you much about politics and the state! Don’t blame yourself Governor Murata talks to me with an over-familiar attitude.
So, uhm, there’s something I just can’t understand about Murata-san’s story
I see. Which part of Murata’s talk was unclear to you? Could it be that it was too complicated for you? Oh well, tell me, what did you not understand? Oh, this guy’s looking down on me. His tone is starting to break.
Uhm, Murata-san talks about not being able to forgive the vested interests, and that you want to break them all, but.
Oh, yes, vested interests! Vested interests are interests maintained by a particular social group for a long time due to historical circumstances. You’ll know that when you look it up on the internet
Well, I get that. But what I don’t understand is. I said.
Kouzuki house is a noble family, they have been the nobility ever since the Muromachi period. And such, they have the authority, they have a lot of companies, have a lot of assets, and they know a lot of politicians and businessmen in Japan today.
You don’t need to tell me that, that’s the reason why I’m asking Kouzuki-san to support our political activities! Hey, look. Murata.
So, your political campaign is to crush the vested interests, right?
Of course! Don’t you think that people with vested interests have to be taken down too, right? That’s just obvious Ah.
Then talking about obvious. Kouzuki house is also one of those vested interests Murata-san is talking about I said.
Murata-san, are you asking the Kouzuki house, a group of vested interests, to help you destroy those? That’s what I don’t understand.
If we don’t do something about it, Japan will collapse. That’s how everyone feels! Oh, he tried to pass it off.
Japan won’t collapse no matter what I speak with a fed-up look.
Kouzuki house and the nobility are supporting it with their lives. As long as Kouzuki house is alive, Japan won’t collapse Chapter 1182. Short Series A Human Success Part 5 Chapter 1182. Short Series A Human Success Part 5
I mean, Murata-san, what do you expect from the nobility? They’re people composed of vested interests, so will you destroy them? I asked the former cultural celebrity and current prefectural governor, Murata Hideo
well, you see Governor Murata’s making a face that says this is a problem, and I didn’t let that pass.
No, no, it’s not our intention to scrap and build all of the social systems that existed until now. It’s normal to leave the good ones
So, who decides which are the good ones to keep? I push further.
Well, that’s of course for the citizens to decide. Isn’t that obvious? I mean, you can ask the people for their judgment.if you prefer, we can use a national referendum. But, if we hold such votes every time, we won’t be able to have speedy politics. Therefore, it’s up to the politicians elected by the people to make a fair judgment Governor Murata’s laying down his debate with such energy.
Nono, you should know that too, right? How many instructions I assembled so I get chosen as the governor. I’m the governor of the prefecture, elected by the local voters, thus, the people trust me. Therefore, the judgment of the people in the prefecture is equal to the judgment I and my allies make. You should know that since you learned the Japanese electoral system in your school, right? If you don’t understand, then it’s your school teacher’s negligence! He sure is good at derailing the conversation. Governor Murata looked away from me and back to Yazawa-san.
I’m now being directed by the people to reform the prefecture. As Yazawa-san knows, it’s making a tremendous effect! Our Heisei Political Breakthrough reform, is highly praised by the media as well! Now, I want to convey this reform to the national government He’s appealing with sparkling eyes.
Well, I sure am a man of honesty and passion, so I might not be able to speak well so I’m sorry for that, but, I want you to understand my passion for reforming Japan! Please give me the chance to appeal our political party to Kouzuki-san directly! Right? Governor Murata bows his head.
Is that it? Yazawa-san said coldly.
Huh? Murata looked up.
It’s politician’s job to bow their heads. I’ve been working next to Kouzuki Kakka’s side for some time now so I’ve seen politicians bow so many times before Yeah, a lot of politicians do come to Jii-chan. Asking for funds, connection, or promotion. They all bow their heads to Jii-chan.
Murata-san came from television work to politician, so you perhaps don’t know. Hence, it can’t be helped that you don’t know how politicians act, but. Yazawa-san speaks to governor Murata, laughing scornfully.
Even if you treat us as your supporter and patron, then it won’t work on us
Nono, that’s not true! I’m just trying to get you to understand my passion, see? Isn’t that kind of speaking mocking me as a prefectural governor, a head of a local government Oh, this time he’s trying to reverse the situation.
It’s up to you to decide what you want to believe with what I said. I have no idea why you felt that way though Yazawa-san’s blunt.
Sensei, please calm down The secretary who’s waiting at the door comes to governor Murata’s side.
Yes, yes, I know. I know Governor Murata told his secretary, then.
So what is it? Does Yazawa-san want me to prostrate on my knees? To crawl on the floor and rub my forehead on the ground to gain Kouzuki-san’s support in our activities? Is that what you want to say, right? Look, he’s even angrier than before. What’s with this guy?
What do you think? Yazawa-san looked at me.
I don’t even understand why it has come to that. Murata-san, what’s the point in groveling to the ground? I asked.
Yazawa-san didn’t want you to prostrate yourself, and besides, if Murata-san were to kneel, will that solve anything? That’s what I don’t understand I’m sorry to say but just because Murata-san kneeled doesn’t mean that Jii-chan will meet you, or respond to your requests.
I mean, you said that because I didn’t bow my head low enough, haven’t you?
sensei! The secretary desperately calms down the governor.
Then that’s the same as demanding me, the governor who received the trust of the people in my prefecture, to bow with my hands on the floor?
I don’t think that’s it I said.
Murata-san, you can’t just kneel on the ground. I mean, you have no intention of bowing your head for real, you’re just doing it for the sake of it, don’t you?
What did you say?
No, it’s kind of obvious. There’s no heart to it. After all, you have no intention of bowing down your head to the Kouzuki house, don’t you? You think that you’re lucky to use their money and connections, but the truth is, you hate the lumps of vested interests, like the Kouzuki house, don’t you? Governor Murata.
