In the midst of these developments, we have invested 83.7 billion yen over the past five years. Of the amount invested, 28.7 billion yen was allocated to manufacturing and 29.9 billion yen to distribution, or roughly the same amount for both. As for the rest, around 10 billion yen was allocated to molds, 6.3 billion yen to recycling, and 2.2 billion yen to systems. Most of the investments in distribution comes to an end this fiscal year because the second phase of construction at Hachioji will reach completion. We then intend to sharply boost our investment in manufacturing. This includes erecting a new plant in Gifu Hashima, and the scrapping-and-building of equipment, including the existing molding machines. As the chairman said, we will be investing in automation and the introduction of robots, or what we call cameras for reassurance. Actually, we have installed two cameras that produce fairly fine images of the forming line and workers. These cameras are for safety purposes. When we actually received a complaint, we reviewed the entire lot concerned and discovered some changes had been made. We installed the cameras so we can confirm the changes with recorded images. We confirm that these changes actually cause quality complaints, and then address them accordingly.
