: Yes, this is Nagao speaking from Nomura Securities. I have one question. So this is the Marketing Solutions. Among the management, Bridal, Travel
and Dining, do you think they will basically come back when COVID subsides? Or do you think there will be changes in the customers, consumers,
their behavioral changes? So do you think you need to make some transformation? So what is the discussion right now? So the Media & Solutions,
especially marketing solutions, how are you understanding the situation?
Question: Yoshitaka Nagao - Nomura Securities Co. Ltd., Research Division - Analyst
: Since there are no other questions, I will go. I asked my question previously that was rather long. So regarding the results, I would like to ask
something. First, regarding the HR Technology. In the second half guidance, looking at this, you said in the high teens, that is your guidance. But
when you say high teens, that's still a broad range. So that range, do you think -- what will determine that range? What will be the factors to affect
which point in the range you will finish?

profit growth and investment will change going forward or not under this new management structure. What is the management KPI that you will
focus on or the priorities or the strategies? So going forward, how do you think you will change?
