Son's Square Law (translated)
"Automotive revolution─① Kiichiro Toyoda (Toyota Motor Corporation), ② Yoshisuke Aikawa (Nissan Motor Corporation), ③ Soichiro Honda (Honda Motor Co., Ltd.) Every one of these leaders identified and capitalized on changes in “trends” at the time, resulting in rapid growth. In a 1997 article in “President,” Masayoshi Son expressed that if Konosuke Matsushita or Soichiro Honda were present today, they would also pursue the digital information industry, just like us."
