Hanzawa Naoki (Masato Sakai), the loan manager at Tokyo Chuo Bank’s Osaka West Branch, joined the bank during the bubble economy. Twenty years later, he is a central figure in its operations. His colleague and close friend since joining, Tomari Shinobu (Mitsuhiro Oikawa), often advises and supports him. At home, his cheerful and honest wife Hana (Aya Ueto) stands by him. One day, Branch Manager Asano (Kanji Ishimaru) orders him to secure a 500 million yen loan from Nishi Osaka Steel—with no collateral.
