1 . A circuit substrate module, comprising: a plurality of substrates which are arranged in a matrix, and on at least some of which circuit components are mounted; a plurality of first flexible substrates each of which is arranged between two adjacent substrates in a row direction among the plurality of substrates, and connects the two adjacent substrates; and a plurality of second flexible substrates each of which is arranged between two adjacent substrates in a column direction among the plurality of substrates, and connects the two adjacent substrates, wherein, in each row of substrates among the plurality of substrates, a plurality of lines respectively provided to substrates in the row of substrates and a plurality of lines respectively provided to first flexible substrates which connect the substrates in the row of substrates form a first electric path which extends from a substrate located at a first end of the row of substrates to a substrate located at a second end of the row of substrates, and in each column of substrates among the plurality of substrates, a plurality of lines respectively provided to substrates in the column of substrates and a plurality of lines respectively provided to second flexible substrates which connect the substrates in the column of substrates form a second electric path which extends from a substrate located at a first end of the column of substrates to a substrate located at a second end of the column of substrates. 2 . The circuit substrate module according to claim 1 , wherein the first electric path and the second electric path are used to transmit a signal. 3 . The circuit substrate module according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of substrates are of equal size. 4 . The circuit substrate module according to claim 1 , wherein the first electric path and the second electric path three-dimensionally cross each other. 5 . The circuit substrate module according to claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of substrates has a first principal surface and a second principal surface opposite to the first principal surface, the plurality of substrates are arranged in the matrix in such a manner that first principal surfaces of the respective substrates are oriented in a same direction, the circuit components are mounted on the first principal surfaces of the at least some of the plurality of substrates, and no circuit component is mounted on the second principal surface of each of the plurality of substrates. 6 . A flexible display device, comprising: the circuit substrate module according to claim 1 ; and a flexible display panel including a plurality of pixels which are arranged in a matrix and whose light emission is controlled by the circuit substrate module.
