Main source of the company's strength: its carefully crafted machines-which cost up to 10% more than other Japanese makes-and its network of 700 stores in Japan, each manned by a skilled mechanic. The man who created this aggressive, sports-minded company is no glowing Mantle Sensitive and fragile, Hiraki is an accomplished painter of intricate Chinese-ink tableaux, likes to design Japanese gardens, and owns a world-famous collection of Japanese wood prints...
