Harry Potter Premiere

Anticipation crackled through the South Korean air as the eSports arena buzzed with excitement. SK Telecom T1, fresh off a nail-biting 3-2 victory against Hanwha, stood poised for another battle. This time, however, their challengers were none other than the formidable SK Gaming.

Gone were the rookies of Hanwha; SK Telecom T1 now faced titans like Junhoo and Mayo, veterans whose dominance in the KP Software StarCraft lobby was legendary. The pressure was immense, but SK Telecom T1 had their own secret weapon: Hwang Ji, a rising star whose skill threatened to eclipse even the seasoned players of SK Gaming.

The first map unfolded like a tactical chess match. Junhoo, known for his aggressive terran play, clashed with Hwang Ji's methodical zerg. The crowd roared as each decision, each build order, held the potential to turn the tide. The tension was palpable, the silence broken only by the clicking of keyboards and the gasps of the audience.

As the match progressed, Hwang Ji's strategic brilliance began to shine through. He countered Junhoo's aggression with cunning maneuvers, slowly dismantling his opponent's defenses. The cheers reached a fever pitch as Hwang Ji secured the first map victory, silencing the SK Gaming supporters.

However, SK Gaming wouldn't go down without a fight. Mayo, their protoss ace, stepped forward for the second map. His unorthodox strategies, honed over countless hours in the server, kept SK Telecom T1 on their toes. The match went back and forth, a thrilling display of micro-management and strategic prowess.

Beyond the ripples KiShin was making in the eSports scene, its subsidiary, KiShin Pictures, cast a mesmerizing spell on global audiences with the premiere trailer for "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone." The trailer, showcasing the fantastical world of Hogwarts and its young wizard hero, graced television screens across the United States and Japan, igniting fervent anticipation.

Unlike the book's small popularity, this wide-scale marketing blitz captured the attention of critics and moviegoers alike.

Following a premiere strategy similar of the "Titanic" launch, KiShin Pictures once again chose Japan as the film's first landing site. The red carpet shimmered as the film's cast, director, and even author J.K. Rowling walked the path, greeted by the joyous cheers of small number of fans in Japan, as Harry Potter book series was translated and published by KiShin in Japan.

But this time, the premiere garnered even more attention. Shinro Suzuki, the chairman of KiShin himself, graced the event with his presence, accompanied by his wife and children. His appearance sent a clear message: KiShin Pictures was fully invested in "Harry Potter".

This unprecedented move drew even the attention of the gamer community in Japan.

News of Shin's attendance spread like wildfire through online forums and chatrooms in Japan. "Shin-san, at a movie premiere? What's going on?"

Their idol, the gaming icon and innovative leader of KiShin, was attending a fantasy film premiere?

This certainly sparked curiosity. After they watched the trailer, just from the scenes itself hinted at a world brimming with magic, a theme not unfamiliar to gamers who often found themselves immersed in fantastical video game landscapes.

The lure of a new film with magical world themes proved too strong to resist. Tickets started to sell out to gamers who, while their primary passion remained eSports, were willing to go beyond the competitive arena for a potential cinematic experience, clearly influenced by Shin.

Meanwhile, Shinro Suzuki, accompanied by his wife Mira and their children, navigated the bustling pre-premiere scene

Despite his immense wealth and status, Shinro treated everyone with genuine warmth and respect. Even the film's director, considerably older than the young chairman, was respectful of Shin.

As the lights dimmed and the film began, an entire spectrum of emotions played out in the audience. Shin, watched intently, analyzing the reactions of his wife, children and the diverse crowd surrounding them.

For Shinro Suzuki, the "Harry Potter" premiere wasn't just a red carpet event; it was a dream realized. He had not only secured the rights to J.K. Rowling's beloved wizarding world under the KiShin banner, but its publication under his company's subsidiary added a layer of personal satisfaction.

He envisioned "Harry Potter" taking the world by storm, adding another shining star to KiShin's constellation of successful IPs.

But wealth alone wasn't Shinro's driving force. He understood that a life solely focused on accumulating riches could become monotonous. For him, KiShin was more than just a business venture; it was a platform to experiment, innovate, and push the boundaries of technology. He envisioned his company not just enriching his own life but also contributing to the advancement of society, shaping the future through groundbreaking research and development.

He relates between himself and the billionaires of his previous life he once admired. With an estimated net worth of 44 billion dollars, the sky seemed the limit. Like those he once idolized, Shinro harbored a personal ambition to reach for the stars, literally. He envisioned KiShin venturing into aerospace in the future, building rockets that would propel humanity beyond the planet of Earth.
