KiShin's album popularity and KiShin's products was finally releasing in USA

[San Juan Mountains]

[Telluride, Colorado]

[Telluride Bluegrass Festival]

June 20, 1991

A sizable crowd had already gathered; approximately 88,000 people attended the festival. A prominent stage hosted various singers and bands.

At a distance, KiShin stalls were set up, with a saleswoman offering albums recorded by KiShin's talents. 

Excitedly, a man wearing nothing but shorts exclaimed, "Hey, that's the album I've been searching for!" His friend beside him nodded in agreement, saying, "I've been hunting for that song forever."

The saleswoman smiled as a growing number of people gathered around the stall and said, "Hello, if you're in search of that viral yet undiscovered song, you've come to the right place."

Meanwhile, backstage, Liam and the other KiShin artists were getting ready to perform the songs from their albums. 

Liam was the first to take the stage, and as Daisy and the others waited, he began to sing, "I used to rule the world, Seas would rise when I gave the word," with a sense of urgency, "Now in the morning, I sleep alone, Sweep the streets I used to own."

The crowd listened in rapt attention as Liam performed the previously unheard song.

After Liam finished his performance, the crowd erupted with demands for an encore, shouting, "Encore! Encore!"

Amused by their enthusiasm, Liam, still on the stage, chuckled and spoke into the microphone, "Folks, there are other talented artists waiting to perform. If you want to hear that song again, you can purchase my album at the KiShin stall." With that, he walked offstage, wearing a contented smile.

A person in the crowd questioned, "KiShin?" However, most had taken note of Liam's words and a few had already headed towards the KiShin stall, while the majority remained to listen to more songs from the performers on stage.

Next up was Daisy, who took the stage and began singing, "Heart beats fast, Colors and promises, How to be brave?" She continued with a sense of urgency, "How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?" Then, picking up the tempo, she sang, "But watching you stand alone, All of my doubt, Suddenly goes away somehow."

The crowd was pleasantly surprised by yet another song they hadn't heard before, but found it remarkably good.

After Daisy's performance, the crowd clamored for more, to which Daisy responded with a smile, "Just look for KiShin Records to find my album."

A person in the crowd echoed, "KiShin again?" with growing interest.

"That company seems to have a lot of interesting songs!"

"I recall hearing about it during a CNN interview with a man..."

Following that, Stanley and Rory also performed songs from Shin's previous life, and they announced that their albums would be available through KiShin. Consequently, many people became quite curious about KiShin Entertainment.

"That's it! I'll buy KiShin's albums!"

"Count me in too! I'll buy them all!"

Thanks to artists like Liam and the others, many festival-goers visited the several KiShin stalls set up at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival.

Numerous media outlets in the USA also featured footage of KiShin's artists performing on the Telluride Bluegrass Festival stage. As a result, many music enthusiasts developed an interest in KiShin Entertainment Records' albums.

The albums were sold in various stores, including record stores, department stores, and even grocery stores. These distribution networks had been established by KiShin in recent days, except for the relations with major retailers like Target and Kmart.

The company 'KiShin' suddenly gained recognition in the USA as an entertainment and record company.

Various popular singers also took notice of the songs performed by KiShin's artists.

At the mansion, Freddie Mercury was listening to the song 'Viva La Vida.' Tears welled up in his eyes as he sat in silence, a woman gently running her fingers through his hair, her eyes filled with melancholy.

Michael Jackson nodded in rhythm to the song 'A Thousand Years' by Daisy Willis. "Heart beats fast, colors and promises, Hoo!" he sang, his eyes closed, snapping his fingers.

Several top stars, including Whitney and Madonna, also sang along to the song.

These accomplished artists, instead of feeling envious of songs gaining popularity, embraced the beauty of the music created by emerging new talents.

Meanwhile, as KiShin's albums gained popularity, the company finally introduced its video game console and video games to the USA market.

But most of the video game players in the USA were unaware, and in a random household, a young player discussed with their friend, "Tora released a new game? What's it called?"

"It's something about a monkey collecting bananas," his friend replied while they played a video game. "I like Ninja Master of Suzuki the most..."

...

July 8, 1991.

In a random household, a video game player who had grown tired of Japanese company's games was watching Tom and Jerry on TV. 

Suddenly, a KiShin advertisement appeared on various TV channels in the USA.

"The NUMBER ONE VIDEO GAME COMPANY IN JAPAN IS HERE!!!" the American narrator enthusiastically declared as the scene showcased the white KiShin console. A kid inserted a Super Mario Bros. cartridge into the console, and the child played with joy alongside their family.

"Now, you can play with power!!" the narrator announced with excitement. "Get it now!!!"

Upon seeing this ad, the man who had been lounging immediately turned off the TV and rushed to grab his wallet.

While all of this was happening, Liam Faith was featured on MTV, singing, "I used to rule the world, seas would rise when I gave the word..."

Many music enthusiasts were watching and listening to the music, fully immersed in the atmosphere.

After Liam finished singing, the crowd below the stage erupted in cheerful cheers. He was then approached for an interview by a man who said, "Liam Faith... Your name and songs have been steadily climbing on the Billboard magazine, and your song 'Somewhere Only We Know' is already in the top 50! 'Viva La Vida' is at a respectable 78!"

Liam smiled, a hint of tears in his eyes, and replied, "This is all thanks to the music listeners who supported this song and spread the word about my album."

The interviewer smiled genuinely and praised, "You completely deserve it. I love all your songs! They seem ahead of their time."

Liam nodded and added genuinely, "Thank you. I also want to express my gratitude to KiShin Entertainment."

As the crowd cheered, Liam continued, "Without KiShin Entertainment, I probably wouldn't be here and wouldn't be able to sing these wonderful songs."

The interviewer acknowledged the contribution of KiShin, recalling that the company was gaining attention, and said, "Speaking of KiShin, that entertainment company seems to be garnering a lot of fans for the songs they've composed. I'm genuinely curious about the person behind these compositions." He remembered Shinro briefly but doubted such a young man could create these songs.

Liam just smiled in response and said, "I apologize, but I can't answer that question." Liam saw the interviewer nod, then continued, "But I can tell you that KiShin isn't solely focused on entertainment."

The interviewer and the crowd were taken aback as the man asked, "Oh? What does that mean?"

With a smile, Liam revealed on live TV, "KiShin is actually a video game company. It was incredibly popular throughout Japan, selling consoles and video games that were a massive hit in Asia. Even the two giant companies, KiShin's competitors, couldn't match their success in Asia."

The interviewer couldn't interrupt Liam, who spoke so quickly that the director had no chance to intervene. Many people in their households watched and heard this revelation, sparking curiosity about KiShin's console and video games.

Gradually, KiShin's video games and console advertisements gained more recognition.
