Question from Readers:
I’m curious whether Fuji Television is involved in the troubles surrounding Masahiro Nakai. Specifically, I want to know who covered the costs for the suite room during the social gathering held at the Grand Hyatt Tokyo in winter 2021. If this expense was processed as a cost for Fuji Television, there should be a receipt, right? Additionally, regarding the barbecue expenses at Nakai-san’s home, if those were also covered by company funds, it could become a significant issue. As viewers, we have the right to know the truth
about Fuji Television’s involvement in this matter. Moreover, I’ve heard voices of general guests who used the Grand Hyatt Tokyo feeling saddened by this report. While Fuji Television acknowledges the existence of the social gathering, it seems they haven’t provided a clear explanation regarding the payment for the hotel. I hope they can offer a solid explanation for this.
Nakai Masahiro’s Troubles and Fuji Television’s Involvement
Recently, troubles surrounding Nakai Masahiro have become a topic of discussion. In particular, the conversation about the social gathering at the Grand Hyatt Tokyo in winter 2021 seems to be attracting a lot of attention. To what extent was Fuji Television involved in this matter?
Who Paid for the Suite Room Costs of the Social Gathering?
The question of who paid for the suite room at the social gathering is indeed a significant point. If it was processed as an expense by Fuji Television, there should be a receipt, and disclosing that is a matter related to the viewers’ right to know. As a law student, I feel that such transparency is incredibly important. In fact, I remember a professor emphasizing in my university class on expense processing that “if a company’s expenses lack transparency, it will lose trust.” I certainly agree with that. While there are opinions expressing sadness from general guests, those feelings likely stem from Fuji Television’s failure to provide a proper explanation.
The Issue of Barbecue Expenses
The barbecue expenses at Nakai-san’s house could also pose a significant issue if they were processed as company expenses. As a viewer, I can understand the desire to know the truth behind this. I personally have never had an experience of holding a barbecue at a friend’s house as a company expense, but if that were the case, I would surely be concerned about how others perceive it.
Fuji Television’s Responsibility to Explain
Fuji Television seems to recognize the existence of the social gathering but appears to be vague regarding the payment for the hotel costs. This ambiguity can only lead to distrust among viewers. I strongly hope they will provide a clear explanation and make efforts to restore trust. Recently, I’ve hosted a small party at a hotel with friends, and we discussed expenses thoroughly beforehand. I thought this was standard practice, but I wonder how such large organizations handle these situations.
