Regarding the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, the Tokyo District Public Prosecutor’s Office and others have begun searching the houses of advertising giants such as Dentsu, citing suspicions of collusion in bids for test competitions ordered by the Games Organizing Committee. The Special Investigation Department and the Fair Trade Commission are conducting house searches, such as the Dentsu head office, which received orders for planning and other tasks for the test competition ordered by the Organizing Committee in 2018. According to the person concerned, there is a suspicion that the bidding was coordinated and the bidding schedule for each venue was decided in advance. Nine companies, including Dentsu, and one consortium won the 26 competitive bids for the test competition, with a total contract value of approximately 500 million yen.
