All language subtitles for [xPearse] Salaryman Kintaro - Episode 16 [English Sub] [360p]

Idiot!

Don't mess with a salaryman.

You'll do as I say if I win,
are you OK with that?

Fine.

Don't even think of disobeying me.

Ouch!
Ouch!

Please help!

Help me!
He's fallen in!

Please rescue him!

I can't swim.

Rescue him, please!

Come on, it's only a dog.

Hurray!

What a weirdo he is!

All that, just to rescue a dog.

Gum'. Gum'.!

Gum'. Gum'.!

I'm so grateful.
I'm so grateful.

Thank you!
Thank you!

I nearly get there,
Then I lose my confidence.

I look at the sky and wonder,
Will I get to where my dreams come true?

Life used to be so easy for me,
And now time is running out

I left my mistakes behind me,
Because I wanted to change.

But I haven't changed.

I built a rainbow over the thunder clouds,
And time and space, and I started to run.

H! climb that rainbow to a world beyond,
Where my heart will learn to sing.

And I will come to see tomorrow.

I can flow.

I can go endlessly.

If ! find my peck of courage
in time and space,

I will start walking again.

KINTARO WORKS IN SALES

Oh, certainly, on the 13th.

Yes, thank you very much.

I want you to deliver the
documents to this address.

Manager Murakami.

What do you want me to do?
I'm good at sharpening pencils.

What about lgo?

I looked for him
but I couldn't find him anywhere.

I must admit, I don't really
want to see him though.

You're under Mr. lgo's direct supervision.
We can't interfere.

Mr. Yajima Kintaro.

Yes?

Here.

What's this?

A mobile phone.

From Mr. lgo.

He said you have to keep it
with you all the time.

Manager.

Mr. lgo intends to look after him.

What do I do With this?

Please press this button.

Hello?

It's me.

There's a tender at 11 o'clock.

Go to the City Hall now.

Be there for 11 o'clock.
Don't be late.

Huh?
Tender?

Just go to the City Hall.

W...w...wait, Mr. Igo!

Did you decide
to take on a trainee?

I'm not young anymore.

My body's telling me I need
someone to run errands for me.

Is that so?

You're not the kind of person who
changes his ways just because he's told to.

Has something happened
to make you change your mind?

That fellow will be my successor.

I'm turning him into Presidential material
while the Chairman is still alive.

He's going to hate prearranged bidding.

Why did he leave him in my charge?

Oh, well, it's not like you.
I'm surprised.

Mah-jong!

Does it mean you're serious
about this guy, Kurokawa?

From today, you do as you're told.
You do what I say, no matter what.

If I say white is black,
then it's black.

If you don't like it, take me on.

Or just give up and...

Don't take me for a monkey!

What is it?
Do you want to register a complaint?

L...I'm sorry.

Here.
This is Kahoku City Hall.

KAHOKU CITY HALL

Who thinks I can just go away?
I'll never get away from you.

Uh, excuse me?

How can I get to meeting room 2?

Are you a trader?

Yes, I'm from Yamato Construction.

That way.

What?
That way?

You're an interested party, aren't you?

Why didn't you do your research
before you came here?

What did you shoot at golf yesterday?

Eighty four.
Good isn't it?

Really?
That's great!

Hey!

What?

You.

Uh, using a mobile phone
is forbidden in here.

Go outside.

Hello?

It's me, lgo.

Government officials are your Gods.

Don't get on the wrong side of them,
no matter what.

Huh?

Excuse me!

Who are you?
Where are you from?

I'm from Yamato Construction.

Yamato Construction?

Are you representing Mr. lgo?

I don't really know,
but I was told to come here.

You don't know?

Come here.

Here.

Huh?

We're making a successful bid today.

This will be your bid.

What's this?

Wise up.
Don't you know anything?

I was only told to go to
the City Hall for a tender.

Write down your offer.
OK?

YAMATO CONSTRUCTION
81,000,000 yen

We'll start with a private tender for a bicycle
parking lot in front of East Kahoku station.

Is this for a parking lot for bicycles
in front of a station?

What's he doing in here?

It seems everyone
who's anyone is present.

We're now inviting tenders
for the first contract.

If you are not an employee
of a corporation,

please attach a power of attorney
document together with your offer.

First, Tabe Construction.

Here.

Next, Ohyama Group.

Here.

- Ishibashi Construction.
- Here.

- Murata Group.
- Here.

Matsukin Group.

Why did he throw me into a place like this
without any explanations?

Yamato Construction.
Yamato Construction?

H...Here!

I'm proceeding to the announcement
of the results of the tender.

Ohyama Group, 82,600,000 yen.

Maejima Building Contractor's
Office, 79,900,000 yen.

Tabe Construction, 78,600,000 yen.

Yamato Construction, the bid is invalid
as the papers were incomplete.

As a result,

Tabe Construction has been granted the
contract with a tender of 78,600,000 yen.

Thank you very much.

Thank you for your trouble today.

I arranged this party
to cement our relationships.

Please go ahead
and enjoy yourselves.

Thank you very much for your trouble.

Thank you.

It was only a medium-scale project but
Hokuto Construction didn't take pan this time.

Yeah, it was the kind of meeting
they used to be.

Yeah, indeed.

Don't bad mouth
Hokuto General Construction...

...if you want to survive around here.

I know that much.

Thank you very much.

Why, thank you.

Hokuto General Construction.

HOKUTO GENERAL CONSTRUCTION
Slander -NO!

Young man...

...thank you for your trouble.

What's this?

It's your share of the action.

Take it to your company, keep it yourself
or do whatever you like with it.

What was that?

What do you mean?

I didn't understand what went on at all.

Weren't you handed anything?

Eh? Oh, oh, oh.
This?

That was your first taste of prearranged
bidding, and that's your job from now on.

Prearranged bidding?

The most important thing
for a prearranged bidder

is to never get on the wrong side
of government officials.

Government officials are everything.

You're only a cockroach
in their way.

If you lose it and grab a government
official by the collar, I'll kill you.

What's the face for?

You may have been the
flavour of the month in Head Office,

but you're going to learn that salarymen
have to lie to themselves.

But unfortunately we don't convince
ourselves with our own lies.

But we have to put up with things
and make believe.

It's not pretty.

Salarymen crawl about
like cockroaches to live.

So what?

Am I supposed to say that I'm chickening
out because I don't want to lie to myself?

Don't get me wrong!

I'm no angel.

It's not only salarymen! All humans
have to lie to themselves to get by!

Can you live like a cockroach?

I'd rather be a live cockroach
than a dead eagle.

I'll tell you one thing.

When you grab a government official,
don't grab him by the collar, but here!

Remember that!

KAHOKU CITY CULTURE HALL

What a lot of people!

Most of them are young boys.

What's this?

Oh, Suenaga Mimi's appearing.

Who?

She's the one who launched her career
by releasing her nude photograph collection.

She showed everything she's got to anyone
interested, and now she's a super idol.

Super idol, is she?

Oh, is this the car?

Certainly is.

That must be Mimi!

Oh, dear.

Grown-ups like them
shouldn't be groupies.

Stop here!

That's not a good idea, Mimi.

We've just managed to escape the groupies
by putting a decoy in the other car.

I'm saying stop!

There'll be a riot if we stop here.

Just stop!

Hey, gimme a break!

Kin-chan!

Kin-chan!
Kin-chan!

Kin-chan!

You see, it was Kin-chan!

Hi, Mimi.

I missed you!

What?

I'm so pleased to see you!
Are you going to my concert?

No, I happened to be passing by.

I thought so.
You're not interested in my singing.

I am interested.
You've become a very popular girl.

Has my mother come yet?

What?
I don't know.

We're going to be getting into trouble, Mimi.
Come on!

May I have your autograph?

Kin-chan!

I'm staying at the Kahoku Hotel.

You must come see me.
Be sure to come!

Kin-chan!

Good luck!

Tuck in, Ryuta-chan.

I will.

Would you like another helping?

Oh, thank you.

Don't read the paper while you're eating!

What's the matter, Takako?

Why are you so angry?

You're not Kin-chan's wife yet.

As if I'd be interested
in a person like him!

Yeah, right.
Must be your time of the month.

It isn't!

I was only joking.

Good evening!

Oh, who can that be?

My goodness!
Aren't you something?

How can I help you?

I'm Ezawa Yuki,
of the family of Yamato Morinosuke.

Is Mr. Yajima Kintaro here?

Yuki!
What happened?

Kin-chan!

I've just remembered that you were starting
university in Tohoku this spring.

That's right, I came to see you
as exams were over today.

You've grown into
a beautiful young woman.

Thank you.

Excuse me, but do you mean the
Chairman, Mr. Yamato Morinosuke?

Yes, I'm his granddaughter.

I see, I see.
Please come in.

Good evening.

Hi!

Oh, you look well.
I'm relieved.

You did well to find me here.

Yeah, it was easy as I heard
it was an old house.

It really is a piece of history.

I'm sorry.
Who are you supposed to be?

Oh, excuse me.

My name is Suenaga Misuzu.

Thank you for looking after
Kintaro for me.

For me?

Kintaro?

Will you come in?

Sorry, Kin-chan.

I want to surprise Mimi
by going to her concert without telling her.

I just came here to have a look at you.

I'm staying at the Kahoku Hotel.
See you then.

That's quite some opposition, isn't it?

What do you mean?

They're all exceptionally beautiful.

Pop star Mimi,
the Chairman's granddaughter Yuki,

and a proprietress of a bar
with extraordinary personal connections.

So what?

If I was 20 years younger...

...I wouldn't leave him alone.

I told you I don't want
anything to do with him!

Don't keep at me like that, mother!

Are you busy?

Aren't you going to the hotel?

No, I'm working.

I'm working at the City Hall
from tomorrow.

I'll be dealing with the city side of things.

Will you tell me the basics of doing deals
with a government office?

You know a little about it, don't you?

Yes, a little.

Hello!

The public office nominates
several companies for public work.

The companies try to work out the price
the public office has budgeted,

and adjust their prices to it.

Then the company which offers
the lowest price gets the work.

am the companies work together
to fix prices before tendering.

And the public office itself
prefers this way of working.

One of the reasons is to avoid competition
between companies who get bogged down.

Another reason is that they want the price
to be in line with their budgets.

It's dirty work.

The total value of the contracts our
company got in the North East last year...

...was 25.6 billion yen.

Most of the contracts were made
by Sub-Chief lgo.

But the Sub-Chief has given up
on Kahoku City.

He doesn't try at all any more.

That's because in Kahoku City,

Hokuto Construction is putting all the other
major construction firms out of business.

Hokuto Construction is fixing things with
a high ranking member of the National Diet,

Yamagane Koshiro, who's from this area.

So no one can do anything about it.

Hey, he's from
Yamato Construction, isn't he?

He's been sent to the City Hall,

even though there's no way
any major construction firm can get work.

He can't be capable
of doing a properjob.

Yeah, he looks stupid.

Thank you!
That was delicious.

It's good to know
there's someone like you.

You're right, people are always saying
the food tastes terrible.

You only need to give us one meal ticket
tomorrow, we'll give you two helpings.

Thank you.

An day?

All day.

City Hall is your HQ.

Make yourself well known
to the government officials.

Something will turn up
one of these days.

Do you mind if I smoke?

No.

It's hard to find anywhere
to smoke these days.

The duty on tobacco provides
a lot of income for local government.

Yeah?

You're doing well, aren't you?

Most young people
don't like working at the City Hall.

Thank you.

There's this work.
Do you want to help us?

Huh?

How much would it be if your company
were to provide estimates for this work?

I would like you to try it
to give us a reference point.

We'll do it!

We'll do it within two weeks!

Please.

Excuse me.

So, as I thought...
he didn't remember me.

Extension work on a civic hall.

That's not bad.
Give it a whirl!

Good!

SALES DEPARTMENT

Kin-chan, this is from
Planning and Estimates.

Here's the estimate.

Oh, thank you.

Did you all hear that?

Yajima was asked by a
government official at the City Hall,

to provide an estimate for this work.

This means we could become the main
contractor of Kahoku city's works.

I'm going to the City Hall.

Good luck!

Once Hokuto Construction appears,
then it's endgame, anyway.

Mr. lgo is being a bastard, isn't he?

I don't think so.

I don't think Hokuto Construction
will be involved this time.

We were requested by the
Planning Department Chief in person.

Come off it.
It's a waste of time and labour.

He's not getting anywhere.

This branch of Yamato Construction is
located in the heart of Kahoku City.

Are you suggesting we give up
tendering for all the work in this city?

Get smart!

Hokuto Construction
isn't a pushover.

Sub-Chief!

Hey, sexy!

My name is Aoba Takako.

What kind of person do you think he is?

You must know
if you're sharing a bed with him.

D...don't be ridiculous.
It's a house we're sharing.

He's the type who uses a bombshell
to force his way through things.

Bombshell?

If his bombshell explodes,

the Yamato Construction North East
branch will be blown away without a trace.

Even if he gets a tender accepted because
of his action, we'll take out the detonator.

You can't mean that!

When he entered the company,

I heard that the bastard said he wanted a love
affair with the company to last his whole life.

It seems like his starting point as a
salaryman was a little different from yours.

He may be naive and foolish.

But there's only a very fine line between
a great statesman and a fool.

Pm curious to see whether the company,

will back up the bastard
who's ready to run holding a bombshell.

He's going to be relying on salarymen
who gave up their dreams.

Now we'!! see whether they can
dream again or not.

Department Chief Handa,
our company's estimate is completed.

It looks really good!
It's right on target.

Thank you very much!

After climbing up a long road,

The lights of the city flicker in the distance.

I realise why I look up at the sky,

And the dream t had that day
comes into my mind.

I've kept searching for what never changes,
And I've reached my goal at last.

It's you, in my arms,
That will change everything in heaven.

We'!! start walking together,
Our long way journey to heaven.

As long as it's true that we're together again,
I don't need anything else in heaven.
