Features: I first met Mr. Fujiwara Yoshihiko in the summer of 1998. At that time, the China International Trust and Investment Corporation (CITIC Trading Company) where I worked was dedicated to developing and operating the export of calcite for papermaking to Japan. Although the development project was beneficial for all parties involved, including the mining areas, transportation ports, shipping companies, and of course the Sumitomo Corporation and Nippon Irohoku Co., Ltd. in Japan, as well as Mr. Fujiwara Yoshihiko's company, the progress of the entire project remained consistently challenging. In 1998, it was the most successful year in my career since leaving school, but it was also the year when my spiritual world felt the most desolate. That year, I experienced for the first time in my life the ugliness of human nature and the filth of reality. This is a profound sense of loss and regret that only arises when you sincerely pour your heart into something but inexplicably end up with nothing in return. This book describes the author's experiences and reflections in the full swing of AMP and other aspects. It also discusses the time, energy, perspectives, and insights required for AMP—such as the significant meaning of self-investment and the gains one can obtain from the experience of AMP.
