00:00My mom said she has a favorite organization, but she seems to have forgotten its name.
00:04How can someone forget the name of an organization? I hope it's not a sketchy one.
00:07I asked her a lot, but I still have no idea.
00:10You don't know? Well then, I'll help you figure it out. Tell me what characteristics she mentioned.
00:15She said it was a cartel organization that controlled the global diamond market.
00:18That's the Diamond Syndicate, led by the De Beers company. They were the ones maintaining diamond prices.
00:23That was easy to figure out.
00:25That's what I thought too, but my mom says their main source of funds is the sales from a
00:28local bazaar.
00:29then it can't be the diamond syndicate there's no way an organization that controlled the global market
00:34could run on bizarre sales the scale is way too small exactly and then my mom also said they apparently
00:41came up with the famous catchphrase a diamond is forever that's definitely the diamond syndicate with
00:46that copy in 1948 they created the culture of engagement rings they are marketing geniuses but you see my
00:53mom says their meetings are always held at the local community center
00:55there's no way it's that homie a meeting to determine global diamond prices at a community center
01:01do they use folding tables and pipe chairs and she also said by the late 19th century they accounted
01:06for about 90 percent of the world's diamond production that's completely the diamond syndicate since debiers
01:11was formed in 1888 it's a famous story that they monopolize the market 90 percent is insane
01:17but my mom says all the members have the kanji for ball in their names what kind of rule
01:21is that does that mean only people like mr tamaki or mr tamayama
01:25can join that's enough thank you very much
