Sen De La

The Rise of the Nine Dragons – Shadows Over Southeast Asia is an epic tale of a group of individuals facing the looming threat of a powerful organized crime syndicate, the Nine Dragons Syndicate, which holds a tight grip over the economy and politics of Southeast Asia. The story follows the journey of Bintang, a former journalist, and Sebastian, a time traveler, as they confront the cunning tactics and dark forces led by influential figures like Tian Hao and Yun Feng. 
Set against the vibrant backdrop of Jakarta and Indonesia's new capital (IKN), the core conflict revolves around political ambition, environmental crises, and economic manipulation. The tension arises as personal political agendas clash with the greater good, forcing Bintang and his team—comprising a former hacker, a diplomat, an environmental activist, and a conservation officer—to battle not just for justice but for the future of their land. Together, they face an enemy that wields not only power and wealth but also the ability to disrupt the natural balance.
At the same time, we have Heru, a character-driven by revenge and the pursuit of scientific advancements. His motivations create a tension-filled dynamic within the narrative, adding depth to the ongoing conflict between Bintang's team and the Nine Dragons.

A trendy co-working space in Jakarta, where various influencers gather for a workshop on digital branding and content creation. The atmosphere is energetic, filled with creativity and chatter. Thalia, Rico, and Astrid have joined to scout potential allies and gather intel on the influencers. 


Thalia whispered to Rico. “Look at this crowd. They’re all trying to outshine each other. It’s like a competition for the most outrageous stunt." 


Rico nodded, scanning the room. "Yeah, but they don’t see the bigger picture. They’re pawns in a game they don’t understand. We need to find Eza and Lex Z; they might know more about the situation." 


Astrid tried to point. "There’s Yohanes Bao! Let’s see if we can catch him for a chat. He might have some insights." 


They approach Yohanes, who is surrounded by a small group of fans and followers. He’s animatedly discussing his latest viral video.
