00:00The total is 27,736,000,000,000 Yen.
00:09She is the wife of the emperor of Minami-Osaka, Onoue Nui.
00:16Her other face is the face of a genius who can predict the rise of the stock price.
00:27The time was a bubble.
00:29Bankers and insurers from all over Osaka came to visit her.
00:45But when the bubble burst and the stock price plummeted,
00:49the power of God disappeared.
00:56She was chased out of her debt and was forced to create a fake deposit account worth more than 3,000 million Yen.
01:09I apologize.
01:14The fake deposit account went bankrupt.
01:19Onoue Nui was arrested.
01:21As an individual, she was charged with the highest crime in history and committed suicide.
01:31She was called the Empress of the Bubble.
01:35But her appearance in court was surprising.
01:413,000 million Yen. I'll work to pay you back.
01:46I don't think she needed that kind of money.
01:52A mysterious woman, a banker, destroyed an entire financial institution.
01:58An unprecedented economic incident.
02:03From these three perspectives, we approach the darkness of the bubble era that drove people crazy.
02:16The Darkness of the Bubble
02:29Once upon a time in the bubble era,
02:33there was a terrible incident that caused a stir in the city of business, Osaka.
02:40This pile of money was worth about 10 billion Yen.
02:48A woman was approached by a broker and a banker,
02:52and she borrowed 2.7 trillion Yen from the financial institution.
03:03The person's name was Onoue Nui.
03:07She was the wife of the emperor,
03:10and she was known as a genius broker.
03:15The turning point of civilization was on August 13, 1991.
03:23The image of a bankbook was found,
03:26and Onoue was arrested by the Osaka Special Investigation Department.
03:30Why did the wife of the emperor have to commit a crime
03:35after receiving huge bribes from several financial institutions?
03:40The first perspective is
03:45the people who witnessed Onoue's appearance at the time.
03:51What they saw was a man who looked like him.
03:57What they saw was an unusual amount of bribes,
04:01far exceeding the management ability of a bank.
04:06Another story of a tumultuous economic event.
04:17This is a picture of the store on the hill taken after the arrest.
04:22This is a picture of the store on the hill taken after the arrest.
04:25This is the site where the prophecy of God was given.
04:31A small restaurant of about 25 pots.
04:36From this place, a huge amount of bribes were generated every day.
04:43At the center of this was Onoue Nui,
04:47who was known as the genius merchant of Naniwa.
04:54At the time, the merchants witnessed the whole story.
05:01They made a huge amount of bribes.
05:04With just one order, all the bribes were fulfilled.
05:09I went to Onoue's store.
05:11I said, God, God.
05:13I said, I'll give you a drink or something.
05:15He treated me like a merchant.
05:19But just a few years later,
05:23she went into hiding.
05:27What did the bankers see at the scene of the riot?
05:34Japan in the late 1980s
05:37Japan in the late 1980s was in a bubble.
05:43Japan in the late 1980s was in a bubble.
05:47This is Osaka, the city of economy.
05:51It smelled like money.
05:58The classroom where they learned how to trade bribes was very popular.
06:02Investing in stocks and real estate,
06:05they aimed for profit.
06:07A boom in financial technology was taking place.
06:14At the time, he worked for a major securities company.
06:18Later, he became a daily newspaper reporter.
06:22His name was Akihiro Isshiki.
06:26Akihiro Isshiki
06:28He was assigned to Namba branch.
06:31Onoue had a business in front of his eyes and nose.
06:36His senior employees came to visit him.
06:42All of a sudden,
06:44I was able to get all the bribes.
06:46I was able to get a job.
06:49It was a big deal.
06:52It was a big deal.
06:54I was respected by the customers.
06:57I was admired by the customers.
07:02Akira Tsuda worked as the manager of Osaka at another major securities company.
07:11He still remembers the first time he made a deal with Onoue.
07:19He suddenly bought me a million yen worth of stock.
07:22Even if I made a mistake, I would lose money.
07:25I had no risk at all.
07:27I would buy a million, two million, or three million stock at once.
07:31I would buy dozens of times more than the average customer.
07:35It wasn't a big deal.
07:37It was an ultra-big deal.
07:39Tsuda was surprised by such a high-priced deal.
07:43He carried his own feet
07:45and inspected her shop in Minami.
07:50I thought it was difficult to treat customers.
07:54The atmosphere of the shop and the way the shop was built.
07:57In Osaka, there was a ryotei called Kitcho and Yamatoya.
08:02It's called a ryotei, but it's not a ryotei.
08:05I thought it was impossible because it was a little different from a kappo ryoria.
08:10I wondered why there was a lady like this.
08:14Originally, Onoue was a lady who ran a small ryotei and a small koryo ryoria in Minami.
08:24He was a man of confidence, who earned his fortune by fortune-telling as a hobby.
08:30He attracted the attention of famous people and wealthy people.
08:38Rumor has it that he has a patron.
08:42He has had money for a long time.
08:49In 1984, he built a building that cost 6.5 million yen for the ryotei to enter.
08:58He always had cash in the back of the store.
09:07When he entered the bubble machine, the bank staff, who were customers of the store, recommended him.
09:14He transferred the cash to the bank account and started a stock trading.
09:24Since then, she has been praying for the stone statue of Gamagael in the back of the store.
09:32Next, he began to fortune-tell the name of the stock that would rise.
09:41Hey! Hey! It's going up!
09:46Hey! It's still early!
09:50When he got the stone statue of Gamagael, he got a lot of attention.
09:53So, the shopkeeper, Kin-yuman, made a line and took orders from her.
10:03A meeting called the Nui-no-kai was held.
10:07The members of the board of directors of the stock company and the bank were gathered.
10:12They asked for God's message.
10:17On her birthday, they sent her a large number of kochoran.
10:24She said she was so happy.
10:30It became like a kochoran shop.
10:35The leader of the elite of the world, such as the bank and the stock company, came one after another.
10:41He bowed his head and said,
10:45I think it was very pleasant.
10:49I can't get out of it, or I can't stop it.
10:53He bowed his head in the place where he was worshipped.
10:57We went on a trip together.
11:01I think it was an experience that I had never had in my life.
11:08God's message was well received, and the stock price continued to rise.
11:14But the reality is...
11:18If you think about it calmly, it's just a bubble.
11:22The stock price is rising.
11:25Even if you close your eyes to some extent, I think it was a time when the stock price was rising.
11:31At that time, anything would hit.
11:34It would hit 100%.
11:36If she said something about God's message, people would buy it.
11:43Money calls for more money.
11:47The large bank started giving her billions of dollars.
11:56The Japanese Industrial Bank, which was called the cradle of industrial finance, was the one who was most enthusiastic about it.
12:07It has supported the investment of large companies.
12:11At that time, the Japanese Industrial Bank was facing the need to develop individual customers.
12:19There was a person who appeared like a comet.
12:25There are words left by the person in charge of the Japanese Industrial Bank.
12:31The city of Osaka is an unknown city.
12:36There is a dreamlike story that such a great investor is hiding as an unknown intellectual.
12:49The person in charge of the Japanese Industrial Bank recommended the purchase of an industrial renovation,
12:54a renovation of which the interest rate was discounted earlier, known as a discount account.
13:03With this, the interest rate from the Japanese Industrial Bank continued to rise,
13:08and in the end, a total of 2.4 billion yen was borrowed.
13:18With that money, she bought a lot of stocks,
13:22and as an individual stockholder, she was able to line up with famous large companies.
13:33In addition, she was able to borrow money from loan sharks in the city called Nonbank.
13:47There may have been a lot of competition.
13:50If you are trading with other companies, but you don't have a house, you will lose.
13:56That's why you have to avoid losing money while you are in charge of the Japanese Industrial Bank.
14:08Her financial assets exceeded 600 billion yen in less than three years.
14:18However,
14:20At the peak of the end of 1989, the stock price plummeted.
14:28In half a year, the stock price fell to about half the price,
14:33and the assets accumulated by the stock price decreased little by little.
14:39Payments exceeded the interest rate, and the debt increased.
14:45She had to pay almost 200 million yen a day just for the interest.
14:55At that time, she was trading with 14 banks and about 50 non-banks.
15:06There was a fear that the huge amount of money she had borrowed from her boss
15:13would lead to a major problem that would shake the Japanese financial industry.
15:22Tsuda, who was the chief executive of a securities company in Osaka,
15:26stopped trading with Onoe around this time.
15:31It was because he sensed the fear of losing money.
15:36Normally, most of the customers sell their securities at Nomura Securities.
15:41But she doesn't sell it.
15:43She always takes it home.
15:45She's a strange customer.
15:47At first, I thought it might be like that, but it's like that every time.
15:52So I thought it might be a little bad.
15:56I thought it would be a good idea to stop trading if I thought it would hurt her.
16:01Then she started to make a lot of claims.
16:04The sales director was very upset.
16:06He said, such an important customer.
16:08I thought it was a priority.
16:12Onoe, who was driven into a corner, finally started to work on the crime.
16:19He visited the branch manager of the oldest Tokyo-based safe,
16:24and asked him to make a fake deposit receipt.
16:31The branch manager told him to accept it.
16:35The boss didn't allow him to return it immediately.
16:42In the end, the branch manager agreed to the design,
16:46and she handed it over to another financial institution
16:50as a temporary deposit receipt.
16:57If you think about it, it's not something that a branch manager would do.
17:02But she raised the number so much.
17:05She contributed to the company.
17:07She told him that if he didn't do it, she would close the deal.
17:12But I think she was still worried.
17:16It was the first battle of law and justice.
17:19If you take a step further, the hurdles will be lowered.
17:26In 1991, the bubble collapsed.
17:31At that time, the amount of money she was owed
17:36was more than 2 trillion yen.
17:40A suspicious deal involving a mysterious woman
17:46was gradually exposed in the media.
17:52When the police heard that it was going on,
17:55Onoue finally gave up.
18:00He secretly talked to the person in charge of Kougin,
18:04who he was closest to.
18:06He told him that the 300-million-yen deposit receipt he put in the shop was a fake.
18:17The confession was immediately reported to Okura.
18:22As a result of the investigation,
18:24a fake deposit receipt was found from several financial institutions.
18:30At that time, there was a man who was trying to stop the chaos.
18:40At that time, he was the director of Okura's financial department.
18:44His name was Kazuhiko Takeshima.
18:50I remember what happened yesterday.
18:53A company called National Lease
18:56seized a fake deposit receipt worth 5 billion yen.
19:00I thought something terrible was going on.
19:03I thought it was a set-up.
19:08A set-up.
19:11Rumors spread that the financial institutions had collapsed,
19:15and people were trying to withdraw money at once.
19:20That was the only thing he had to avoid.
19:23That was the only thing he had to avoid.
19:29However, the total amount of the fake deposit receipt was worth 3.4 billion yen.
19:38It was equivalent to the total amount of the Toyo Shinkin deposit.
19:46If the information leaks out first, the whole of Japan will be in panic.
19:54Takeshima secretly transferred several hundred billion yen worth of cash from Japan to the Toyo Shinkin.
20:06We mobilized people to prepare for the chaos.
20:10We prepared the cash,
20:12and put it on the wall of the Toyo Shinkin,
20:15which had about 30 employees of the financial department.
20:21We didn't want to tell the employees too soon,
20:25because there was a risk.
20:27Around 5 a.m.,
20:29we gathered dozens of employees.
20:35On that night,
20:37he met someone at a hotel.
20:42We met at the Toyo Shinkin,
20:45and told him about the incident.
20:48We told him that we would take care of him.
20:53We also asked the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Department
20:58to send a letter of apology to him.
21:04The day of fate came,
21:07when everything was kept secret.
21:12We deeply apologize to you.
21:18The Toyo Shinkin announced the existence of a fake deposit.
21:25Right after that,
21:27Takeshima also went to the meeting,
21:30and told the Toyo Shinkin that there was no problem with the deposit.
21:37Then, the Osaka Prefectural Police Department
21:40announced the arrest of Onoue Nui along with the mayor.
21:50The information was not leaked in advance,
21:53and the incident was safely avoided.
21:59I was relieved that I made it to the beach.
22:04I was relieved that I made it to the beach.
22:07I was relieved that I made it to the beach.
22:10The media said that the Toyo Shinkin had been found
22:14in a safe in Osaka.
22:17That's what they said.
22:20But that's not true.
22:22The Toyo Shinkin was about to be arrested.
22:26I heard later that he couldn't make it to the beach
22:29because he was in a hurry to go to the beach.
22:35Onoue was arrested.
22:39But the reason why she continued to make strange transactions
22:45remained a mystery.
22:49One night, Onoue Nui fell from the Tensai-sobashi Bridge
22:54and fell into the hands of a criminal.
22:58Her compensation amounted to 4.3 billion yen,
23:02the highest amount in history.
23:08The second point of view is
23:11Onoue Nui himself.
23:16What became clear later was that
23:19the knowledge of the stock market was the same as that of an amateur,
23:22and that he was a woman who was far from being a Tensai-sobashi,
23:25but a simple woman.
23:29A life drowned in a bubble of bubbles.
23:33Another story approaching its realization.
23:39Onoue was Arrested
23:43The Wakayama Prison where Onoue was arrested.
23:50There was a woman who lived in the same room as her,
23:54who had been serving a 12-year sentence.
23:59Rumi Nakano.
24:03She was convicted of violating the Arrest Warrant,
24:07and was released.
24:09She now runs a restaurant
24:12and is also involved in the work of public safety.
24:17When I'm working seriously, the prison becomes a two-person room.
24:20A two-person room is a small room,
24:23but when I'm in a good room, I'm with Onoue.
24:26I feel like a mother.
24:29I talk to him and say,
24:32I don't know what to do anymore.
24:35She says that she has not changed in the prison.
24:39I told him that I had a special power,
24:43but every day, at around 7 o'clock,
24:46I would pray to God and listen to his words.
24:50But he was a really fun person.
24:53I wanted to meet him in society.
24:57What is the true story of the woman who borrowed 2,000 yen?
25:07In 1930, Onoue Nui was the third of five siblings
25:13and was born in a poor family in Nara.
25:19Her father, who did not get a job,
25:23and her mother, who was a devout believer.
25:28Every morning, she would wake up to her mother's voice
25:32and pray to God.
25:37At 7 o'clock, she would suddenly start to pray.
25:42She was always praying seriously.
25:44When I asked her what she was praying about,
25:46she said,
25:48I was praying for my brother, so shut up.
25:51She told me a lot about her brother.
25:53Her brother is a snake.
25:55He is a snake, isn't he?
25:58A tough life for seven people in a six-bedroom house.
26:06After graduating from high school,
26:09she left her family home and started working in Osaka.
26:15She got married at the age of 20 and had a son.
26:19She divorced at the age of four.
26:24After that, she worked at a bar or a sukiyaki restaurant
26:29and survived the chaos after the war.
26:36I used to be poor.
26:38I was poor, so I didn't want to get rich.
26:42I wanted to live a decent life.
26:45But she said, I have money.
26:48I have money.
26:52In 1965, when she was 35 years old,
26:56she opened a brothel.
26:58She often talked about her experience in front of customers.
27:05I was born in a rich family.
27:09After graduating from high school,
27:12I started working in Osaka.
27:17She hid her poor background and lied about her academic background.
27:22She was full of lies.
27:29Akihiro Ishiki transferred from Shokenman to a daily newspaper reporter.
27:37When he interviewed Kenji, who investigated Onoue,
27:41he heard a story that made him doubt his ears.
27:48He said, I did something bad.
27:50I'll work for 300 billion yen and pay you back.
27:56Of course, Kenji said,
27:58it's 300 billion yen.
28:00Even if I pay you back 100 million yen,
28:02it'll take 3000 years.
28:05When I told him that,
28:07he said, I see.
28:09He said, I did something bad.
28:11He said, I see.
28:13He said, I see.
28:17Kenji described her impression like this.
28:24She didn't have much financial knowledge.
28:27She didn't know the basic economic terms.
28:33She told me a lot of things.
28:36I didn't have much time to listen to her.
28:40But she wasn't a liar.
28:44Toshihiro Okuyama, a former Asahi newspaper reporter,
28:49interviewed Onoue about this incident.
28:54He analyzed her like this.
28:58Onoue didn't have a strategy.
29:02He didn't invest his money in stocks.
29:09He just wanted people around him to be happy.
29:13He wanted to build a good relationship with people in the bank.
29:17He wanted everyone to be happy.
29:19He didn't have any complaints.
29:23That was his simple idea.
29:29However, in the 11-year trial,
29:33it became clear that she was trying to frame the bank manager.
29:45Ma'am, I can't make a will because I have a witness.
29:51Why don't you bring a will here and make it yourself?
29:56If you want to, you can do it yourself.
30:02God said I can do it.
30:09The bank manager later confessed that he was hypnotized.
30:18The defense asked for a restraining order.
30:23However, the 12-year trial was adjourned.
30:32Onoue was sentenced to 73 years in prison.
30:36She was often taken care of by her old friends.
30:42She was quite old.
30:45She was slow and couldn't get up right away.
30:51She was often told to hurry up.
30:57You're not supposed to do things for people in prison.
31:00But I couldn't force her to do things for me.
31:05I was told to do things for her.
31:09I did things like folding the futon and so on.
31:12I was happy to be taken care of.
31:15But I was told to come to the prison.
31:19I was told to come to the prison.
31:22I said I would go.
31:24I was told to call me when I got back.
31:27How did she look back at the incident?
31:34I said I was at fault.
31:36I said I was a nuisance.
31:39I didn't say anything bad about people.
31:42I just remembered that I was a dancer.
31:47I was told to dance in public.
31:53She was a former bubble queen.
31:56She couldn't hide her shyness.
32:01I was there for about 8 months.
32:04She moved to a different room.
32:07She started to live in the countryside.
32:09At first, she walked by herself.
32:11But she started to walk by herself.
32:13I met her before she went home.
32:15I think it was in Ibuka.
32:17I met her after a long time.
32:18I said, how are you?
32:20She said, who are you?
32:24I thought she was lonely.
32:26I said, shut up.
32:30Onoue passed away in 2014 after being released from prison.
32:43Onoue's crime of embezzlement of more than 300 billion yen
32:48had a great impact on the financial institutions.
32:53The Tohyo Credit Bank, which was founded by Onoue,
32:58was disbanded a year later.
33:02The Nihon Kogyo Bank, which provided Onoue with a large amount of funds,
33:08was also disbanded due to a financial outage.
33:14The third point of view is
33:19Shigeo Taki, a lawyer who worked for Onoue.
33:25Taki filed a lawsuit against the bank for embezzlement.
33:30He kept asking the public about the responsibility of those who lent him money.
33:35Where was his aim?
33:39Another Story, exploring the morals of the bubble era.
33:49After Onoue's arrest,
33:51the big question was how to deal with the loss incurred by the financial institutions.
34:00The Tohyo Credit Bank, which was founded by Onoue,
34:04was disbanded a year later.
34:07The Tohyo Credit Bank was disbanded.
34:11Some of the shops, employees, and losses were taken over by other credit banks.
34:21With a loss of 4.3 billion yen,
34:25the bank and the non-bank were unable to recover their assets.
34:35In the midst of all this,
34:38there was a man who took responsibility for those who lent him money.
34:50Shigeo Taki, a lawyer.
34:55As a human rights lawyer,
34:58he was known as a human rights lawyer
35:02who dealt with the issue of soundproofing and medical care.
35:08As a criminal, he was in a position to deal with Onoue's loss.
35:14This is what Taki said.
35:18As a police officer,
35:21I have doubts about what I should do
35:25in order to deal with Onoue's loss.
35:31The end of the turbulent bubble where lawyers ruled the world.
35:42Hello.
35:44Kuniko Kobayashi, who was involved in the civil lawsuit with Taki.
35:51At the time, she had just started working at Taki's office as a lawyer.
35:58However, this lawsuit left a strong impression on her.
36:06I couldn't use the telephone in the office.
36:09There were only a few numbers.
36:11So I remember asking the office to buy me a bigger telephone.
36:15After that, I became friends with Mr. Taki.
36:20I followed him to the movie theater in Ryotei in Minami.
36:26I also met Mr. Onoue there.
36:29When I said, Mr. Taki, Mr. Taki,
36:32he would come to me with his arms around me.
36:36I was young, so I was a little scared.
36:41As the investigation progressed,
36:44Ms. Kobayashi began to feel the abnormality of this deal with her skin.
36:51For example, when she bought a loan from Kougin, which was called a split account,
36:58she was given money from banks and non-banks, including Kougin,
37:04to buy more stocks.
37:08However, the interest rate at the time of the split is higher than the interest rate of the split account.
37:17It becomes a deal called a reverse loan that she loses.
37:25Because she bought a lot of stocks with the money she lost,
37:30if the stock price does not rise, the debt will increase.
37:35It's incomprehensible.
37:38I don't know if she really knew or not.
37:42It doesn't make sense.
37:45As long as it's moving, money is falling around,
37:49but she's just getting more debt.
37:52I wonder what she was thinking about when she lent money to everyone.
37:57In this way, Kougin, who lent her a total of 2.4 billion yen,
38:04was moving to recover the money as soon as possible
38:10just before the interest rate of the split account rose.
38:17It's not a bad thing or something to deny,
38:23but it's the way she did it.
38:28I think she had a feeling that this was no good,
38:34because she didn't know what Kougin was doing.
38:40In order to take responsibility for the loan,
38:45she filed three civil lawsuits against Kougin,
38:50demanding partial compensation for the loan.
38:56At the time, Okuyama, who was a reporter,
39:00considered this lawsuit to be revolutionary.
39:06Mr. Taki said that Kougin was crazy.
39:12At that time, there were not many people
39:17who wanted to take responsibility for the bank.
39:21That case was processed as a fraud case.
39:26I thought it was very well-balanced
39:31to pursue only one person's responsibility.
39:36Okuyama also talked to Kougin,
39:40who gave her the money.
39:45Mr. Onoe, who was Kougin's vice manager,
39:49was a person who had the will,
39:52but was not a person who could talk reasonably.
39:56He had little knowledge of stock trading,
40:01but he was very good at trading.
40:04I felt that he knew the bank side of things.
40:14Kougin argued that it was not illegal to have children,
40:18and that it was his responsibility to manage the funds.
40:22However, Taki-Ira lost in two cases.
40:25About 1.7 billion yen was paid from Kougin,
40:30which was a huge amount of money.
40:33If you have a lot of power,
40:36such as the government or a big bank,
40:40you have to think about how to use that power.
40:49If you have power, you can do anything.
40:53When this civil lawsuit was being processed,
40:57Kougin's high-profile accounts were exposed one after another.
41:03It's our fault.
41:05It's not the employees' fault.
41:09As the financial institution collapsed,
41:12public funds were put into the hole.
41:21In the midst of the financial crisis,
41:24Taki-Ira's name was erased by the United States.
41:31After that, Taki-Ira was appointed to the Supreme Court of Japan.
41:37I was able to get a little experience
41:41from being judged in court.
41:49Even if the judge's position changes,
41:52Taki-Ira continued to ask for responsibility for lending money,
41:56and issued revolutionary judgments
41:59in the gray zone of consumer finance
42:02and in the conversion clause of tax evasion.
42:09In the 90s, consumer finance had a great presence in TV commercials.
42:14Taki-Ira wondered how far it would be allowed to make customers food.
42:19That was Taki-Ira's problem.
42:23In the 90s, it ended with Onoue's defeat,
42:28but I think it's good to say that it was digested
42:32in a more positive way as a counter-example to the Supreme Court.
42:42Taki-Ira passed away in 2015.
42:46She left a message for Onoue.
42:51I think she was a victim of the times.
42:58I think she was a fool.
43:02She did things that she shouldn't have done,
43:06so I think she was a fool.
43:08I can only think that she was a fool.
43:11I don't think Onoue wanted to be so luxurious
43:15and spend so much money on her.
43:20I think it was a time when everyone was crazy.
43:30Kouya-san, Wakayama Prefecture.
43:33Onoue was buried in the grave here at the top of the bubble.
43:41But recently, when Nakano, who spent time with him at the prison, visited him,
43:47he was buried, and there was no trace of him.
43:59Murasame-san and a tour of the Japanese garden.
44:03That's deep.
44:34The backstage of the Royal Wedding,
44:36which represents the subtle balance between tradition and innovation.
44:38At 10.45 p.m. on the 25th.
