Description: Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, released in 2021, tells the story of Xu Wenwu, a man who discovers the mythical Ten Rings a thousand years ago. These powerful artifacts grant immortality and immense strength. Using them, Wenwu establishes a secret warrior organization known as the Ten Rings. In 1996, he seeks to expand his power by locating the legendary village of Ta Lo, rumored to be home to mythical creatures. However, he is halted by the village’s guardian, Ying Li. Over time, the two fall in love and have two children, Xu Shang-Chi and Xu Xialing. Wenwu leaves behind the Ten Rings to live with his family, but tragedy strikes when Ying Li is killed by the Iron Gang, an old enemy. Devastated, Wenwu reclaims the rings to exact revenge.
Shang-Chi is trained in combat by the Death-Dealer, a high-ranking member of the Ten Rings. At 14, Wenwu sends him to assassinate the Iron Gang’s leader, but Shang-Chi fails and escapes to the United States, adopting the name “Shaun.” Years later, Shang-Chi lives in San Francisco with his best friend, Katy Chen, working as a valet. One day, they are attacked by members of the Ten Rings led by Razor Fist, who steal a pendant given to Shang-Chi by his mother. Fearing they will target a similar pendant belonging to his sister, Shang-Chi and Katy track down Xialing, who now runs an underground fight club. Reunited, Xialing expresses her disappointment in Shang-Chi for leaving her behind.
