KiShin Picture's expansion

The roar of the crowd in the stadium echoed through the VIP section, a stark contrast to the hushed conversation between Shin and his grandfather, Sazama. Shin, his expression etched with a seriousness that mirrored the weight of the conversation, couldn't help but feel surprised. He hadn't anticipated his grandfather, a man usually reserved, to express such ambitious hopes for him, especially concerning the future of KiShin, his company.

Sazama, burdened by the knowledge that his time was nearing its end at the age of 97, felt an urgency to solidify his legacy. He envisioned Shin, his grandson, leading KiShin and propelling it to even greater heights. To achieve this, he planned to bequeath a substantial portion of his Suzuki shares to Shin. The intention was clear: sell the shares and inject the capital into KiShin, fueling its growth and advancement.

As the final whistle blew, signalling the end of the day's KiShin Global eSports competition, the stadium erupted in cheers. Shin, his wife Mira by his side, escorted Sazama and his wife Kumiko to their waiting limousine.

The excitement of the KiShin Global eSports tournament broadcasted in some parts of the world, gamers around the world, glued to their screens as the competitions unfolded. Meanwhile, KiShin Merchandise enjoyed a surge in popularity, fueled by the recent release of a "Lego" animation film co-produced with Pixar. This innovative collaboration brought Marvel superheroes to life in a world of colorful bricks, captivating audiences of all ages. The Lego craze extended even further with a highly anticipated Harry Potter Lego version.

Across the country in Los Angeles, KiShin Pictures, recently relocated from New York, buzzed with activity. Two major film projects were in production, one of which had the industry insiders abuzz: the highly anticipated "Spider-Man 2." The first "Spider-Man" film, released a few years earlier, had taken the superhero genre by storm, surpassing even the box office records of Warner Bros.' DC films. This sequel promised to be even bigger and better, leaving fans eagerly anticipating its release.

And besides that, had leaked about another project, a book adaptation, shrouded in secrecy. Unlike the highly anticipated Harry Potter sequel, details remained elusive, piquing the curiosity of everyone from insiders.

Some insiders speculated it was a classic novel, a literary gem finally getting its cinematic due. Others suspected a hidden gem, a lesser-known work with untapped potential.

Beneath the surface of the bustling "Spider-Man 2" production, a hidden hive of activity buzzed within KiShin Pictures.

Unbeknownst to most, KiShin was orchestrating a strategic expansion, quietly filming several projects simultaneously, many veiled behind the green screens of their studios.

While some were superhero Marvel adaptation like "Spider-Man 2," others ventured into entirely different territories. A gritty, realistic drama simmered in development. It was a deliberate shift, a calculated move by KiShin to diversify its portfolio and challenge the established "Big Six" studios.

The success of "Titanic," a film that seamlessly blended romance with historical elements, had been a turning point. This fueled Shin and the company's key executives, igniting a vision to expand their studios beyond their current capacity.

Their newly expanded studios promised not only increased film quantity but also genre variety. Even independent directors could be given a chance, their projects nurtured by KiShin's funding.

The lights dimmed, the roar of the crowd intensified, and all eyes fixated on the stage of the KiShin Global eSports arena. On May 18, 2001, weeks of intense competition across StarCraft and Counter-Strike culminated in a grand finale, crowning the champions of the world.

In the StarCraft tournament, the air crackled with anticipation as SK Telecom T1, led by the phenomenal Hwang Ji, emerged victorious. Their flawless execution and strategic brilliance had decimated opponents throughout the competition, earning them a well-deserved place on the podium. As Hwang Ji lifted the KiShin Global eSports StarCraft Trophy amidst thunderous applause, his teammates beamed with pride, reveling in the shared victory.

The roar of the crowd had barely subsided after SK Telecom T1 secured their StarCraft victory when an unexpected figure took the stage. Shinro Suzuki, a living legend in the gaming community, emerged amidst stunned gasps and excited shouts. Even the newly crowned champions, including Hwang Ji himself, looked on in shock and awe.

"Please welcome, Mr. Shinro Suzuki!" the host boomed, the announcement igniting a frenzy. Shinro, with his signature wave, acknowledged the cheering crowd before turning his gaze towards the Korean champions.

"He's looking at you, Ji-Seonbae!" exclaimed Hwang Ji's teammate in Korean, barely containing his excitement. "We're actually standing next to the legendary Shinro!"

Hwang Ji, usually known for his composure, remained speechless, the gravity of the moment sinking in. The next announcement added another layer of surprise: "Mr. Suzuki himself will present the prize money!"

The colossal $2 million check brought on stage, carefully carried by staff. Shinro received it with a smile, then handed it over to the beaming SK Telecom T1 team. As they held the giant check aloft, cameras flashed, capturing the sheer disbelief etched on their faces. This wasn't just a victory; it was a moment shared with a gaming icon.

Shin then approached the team, the language barrier bridged by a translator. Words of encouragement and congratulations flowed, filling the Koreans with awe and gratitude. But the surprises didn't end there.

Shinro announced an additional award, specifically for Hwang Ji, recognizing him as the StarCraft MVP. The champion received a separate prize, further solidifying his individual brilliance. The team erupted in cheers, celebrating not just their own win, but also the recognition bestowed upon their leader by a true legend in the gaming community.
