Primary Evidence

"Masayoshi Son rephrased this in an easy-to-understand manner as “system and rule-making” during a lecture at the opening ceremony of “SoftBank Academia.” “When you hear ‘法’ (law), many people immediately think of legal law, but what Sun Tzu is referring to here is system, methodology law, rule-making, structure, and such aspects. Therefore, it also includes business models and platforms."

"The “SoftBank Academia” is a school to cultivate the next generation of business leaders. As the principal, Masayoshi Son takes the podium, teaching and providing direct guidance. It can be said that he realized his middle school dream of “wanting to be a school teacher” in a different form."
