The Rinkaijis are a well-to-do family. The father, Nariyuki, works in an elite company. His wife Yoshiko, who is a firm believer in the status quo, finds her world falling apart when Nariyuki quits his job and her daughter, Sugina secretly stops going to school, Nariyuki decides to start his own company with Sugina. Their first project doesn't go very well due to Nariyuki's inexperience, but finally, the company succeeds and becomes a major corporation, and Sugina grows to be a powerful businesswoman.
