Chapter 204 - The World (My Cinematic Universe )

World Overview: "Peak Earth"

Year: 2025Genre: Sci-fi, Alternate History, Mythic Entertainment

In a parallel universe shaped by divine love for entertainment, Earth exists—but not quite like the one we know. This version was created by The Goddess, a higher being (aka me, the author I'm a girl cause why not), who fell head over heels in love with human creativity. Movies, games, sports, music—our world's entertainment became her obsession. And in her divine excitement, she created a world like ours, but with her own magical twists.

Everyone in this world carries a spark of the Goddess's love. This "spark" manifests as a deep passion for some form of entertainment—be it competitive sports, idol culture, esports, fashion, music, film, or something niche and obscure. This love isn't just a hobby—it defines people's paths, cultures, even economies. Entertainment is the heartbeat of this reality.

⚙️ Tech: One Generation Ahead

This world is at least a decade more advanced than ours. The consequences are massive:

No 9/11 – Advanced defense tech stopped the attack.

No Hiroshima/Nagasaki bombing – Multiple nations developed nuclear tech at once, forcing mutual restraint and advancing diplomacy.

Space Expansion – Mars has the first liveable tech-based colony. Commercial space travel is booming.

Cures Exist – Diseases like malaria and many cancers have been wiped out or tamed using genetic mapping and AI-driven medicine.

VR/AR – Fully immersive VR. People live digital lives inside hyper-realistic entertainment worlds. "Virtual concerts" have stadium-level crowds.

AI & Robotics – AI assistants are everywhere. They learn, adapt, even entertain.

Smart Cities – Urban areas self-manage traffic, climate, and infrastructure.

Holographic Communication – Texting and video calling are now outdated. Real-time holo-chats are the norm.

Cars – Electric, self-driving, hover-capable, with aesthetic variants like anime-themed body skins or sports-morphing models. Some cars are powered by kinetic entertainment energy (yes, music makes it go).

Obsolete tech:

Physical cash? Gone.

Traditional phones? Replaced by neural implants or smart visors.

Broadcast TV? Replaced by "EnterVerse"—a cross-medium AI-curated entertainment system.

🌍 Population & Geography

The Earth itself is larger—double the landmass, thanks to tectonic engineering.

World population: 16 billion.

U.S.: 1 billion people (4th largest).

India & China: Each over 2 billion.

Nigeria: 1.3 billion and rising.Cities are more vertical than ever—tower cities exist with entire self-sustaining ecosystems stacked layer by layer.

👑 Legends Live Again

In this world, the Goddess bent time, space, and logic to revive icons and historical figures. Everyone lives in their peak form. Time and age don't bind people here.

Want to see young Michael Jackson and Beyoncé perform together? Want to watch Bruce Lee in a martial arts anime brought to life? Want to vote between Abraham Lincoln and Donald Trump in 2025? Welcome to Peak Earth.

This is the Year of Peak.A divine entertainment experiment.A world where eras collide and legacies rise.

🗳️ Politics & Power Plays

President of the U.S.A.: Abraham Lincoln, reborn as a 42-year-old senator-turned-Unionist Party president.

He defeated former republican president Donald Trump and Barack Obama (who was running under the Democratic Party as the "Star-Spangled Hope").

Politics is now as gripping as global sports—literally televised and followed like reality TV, with fanbases and merch.

🎬 The Entertainment Industry: The Ultimate Powerhouse

In this world, nothing has changed more than entertainment. It's no longer just an industry — it's a global institution that shapes culture, politics, and even economies. To keep track of the colossal influence and quality of entertainment players, there's an exclusive and ruthless ranking system overseen by the "OmniSpectra Council" — a shadowy, ultra-powerful organization dedicated to monitoring, evaluating, and controlling all forms of entertainment across the globe.

🏆 The OmniSpectra Ranking System

The Council ranks companies, musicians, actors, athletes, and even movies on a strict scale:

F → D → C → B → A → S → EX

EX Rank is the highest and rarest honor — awarded only to those who have achieved absolute mastery and global dominance in their field.

To achieve EX, you don't just need talent. You must have a combination of:

Global fame and influence

Technological innovation or artistic impact

Consistent top-tier performance over years

Massive public and critical approval

Support of at least 4 billion votes worldwide in an annual "SpectraVote"

EX holders are treated like living legends — their names alone can move markets, inspire governments, and redefine entire cultures.

🌟 Examples of EX Ranks

Companies:

Rockstar Games — The first EX-ranked gaming company in history. Rockstar shattered boundaries with GTA 6, a game that blends hyper-realistic AI, next-gen VR immersion, and a living open world so vast it's practically a second universe. Their next game GTA 8 is the most anticipated game ever, breaking tech barriers and cultural norms, setting the gold standard for entertainment innovation. Rockstar's domination helped redefine what games mean in this world.

Musicians:

Michael Jackson — Despite the centuries, the King of Pop remains untouchable. The first artist to break 500 million monthly listeners across all streaming platforms, his legacy transcends time with flawless performances, record-shattering albums, and a lasting cultural impact. Music is the most crowded EX field, boasting over 15 artists at this peak — each a living icon influencing billions.

Actors:

Tom Cruise — Reinvented here as the undisputed Rom-Com King and Blockbuster Titan. In this world, Tom's charisma and charm made him a legend not in action but romantic comedies, dominating box offices and award shows alike with his perfect blend of humor, romance, and thrills.

Athletes:

The hardest EX to earn, because athleticism here is off the charts. In 2024, swimming legend Michael Phelps was immortalized as the "King of Water" after winning an unprecedented 12 Olympic gold medals in a single game. He became the only athlete in the last 10 years to break into EX, representing peak human achievement.

Movies:

Not just people or companies — films themselves can be EX ranked. A masterpiece like "Romeo and Juliet" (2018) directed and written by the legendary EX rank William Shakespeare (revived in this timeline), earned EX for being the quintessential romance film — breathtaking visuals, timeless storytelling, and a cultural phenomenon that reignited love stories worldwide.

⚖️ How Rankings Are Determined

The OmniSpectra Council uses a brutal, multi-faceted process:

Global Popularity: Measured by audience reach, ticket sales, streaming numbers, and fan engagement across all media.

Innovation: New tech, groundbreaking artistry, and cultural influence weigh heavily.

Consistency: Sustained excellence over years or decades.

Public Vote: A mandatory annual SpectraVote, where over 4 billion people worldwide cast votes for candidates in various categories.

Peer Review: Top industry experts, cultural critics, and tech innovators contribute to a secret deliberation panel.

Impact: Political, economic, and social influence generated by the entity.

Each Form of Entertainment have a different process.

💥 Why This Matters

The ranking is more than just a status symbol — it shapes sponsorship deals, government favor, international alliances, and even who controls certain media networks or gaming platforms. Being EX means you aren't just at the top of your game — you are the game itself.

A New Age of Entertainment

In a world fueled by hyper-advancement, massive global population, and impenetrable digital infrastructure, piracy no longer exists. Every piece of content is secured by quantum-encrypted smart contracts, meaning every view, listen, or interaction is fully tracked and monetized. With a population nearing 16 billion, the sheer scale of consumption has changed the face of entertainment forever.

🎮 GAMING: The King of All Entertainment

Gaming didn't just evolve — it transcended.

What used to be consoles and controllers is now full neural-synchronized Virtual Reality (VR), powered by the NeuroLink Grid. Players don't play games — they live them. Worlds are no longer rendered just in pixels; they're felt, smelt, and lived via complete sensory immersion.

Forget GTA 6 — the world is already in GTA 8, a fully persistent virtual megacity that mirrors Earth in scale. Every NPC is an AI with emotion and consciousness. Players become politicians, mob bosses, therapists, or even start businesses in a game that runs parallel to reality.

GTA 8 is so advanced that one in every 30 people in the world logs in at least once a week — it has its own internal economy, labor unions, governments, and media channels.

🎮 The gaming industry is now the richest form of entertainment, worth between $1.5 trillion to $4 trillion, dwarfing even traditional film and music combined.

Example of the Gaming Industry:

"RealmShift" – a fantasy-meets-science fiction VR title where every item is NFT-based, tradeable across real-world crypto networks, and battles influence real-world sports betting. It's the first game whose final battle was broadcast on intercontinental hologram screens.

🎵 MUSIC: Timeless but Transformed

Unlike gaming, music has remained grounded, evolving organically rather than technologically. While visuals and virtual concerts are common — with some stars hosting 10 million fans in VR arenas — the heart of music hasn't changed. Streaming dominates, and authenticity still rules.

Artists now rise faster due to AI-curated discovery, but the titans of sound remain, supported by fanbases that span continents.

Top 5 Most Streamed Artists (Last Year(2024)):

Michael Jackson – Legend Reborn, age 27.

Kairos Nova – Natural Citizen of the World, age 52. Known for genre-blending global anthems that unite people.

Rihanna – BadGirlRiRi, age 22. Her 2024 breakout made history with the fastest-streamed debut album ever.

Adele – The soulful queen whose timeless voice remains untouchable in a world that values raw vocal power.

Eminem – Still dominating at age 34, crowned the Biggest Rapper in the World with verbal dexterity unmatched.

🏅 SPORTS: Enhanced Humanity, Same Spirit

Medical advancements have nearly eliminated career-ending injuries, allowing athletes to perform longer, harder, and better than ever. Wearable bio-suits prevent overuse, and recovery is near-instant thanks to genetic therapy.

But at its core, sports haven't changed — it's still about heart, glory, and legacy. Viewership is at an all-time high, with over 6 billion people watching global tournaments in real-time or VR.

Highlights from the Sporting World in year 2024:

Ballon d'Or Winner:

Ronaldo Nazário Jr., the young Brazilian phenom who led his club to a stunning treble. On the podium, he tearfully dedicated the award to Brazilian legend Endrick, who mentored him through the early years.

NBA Champions:

Michael Jordan, the 2017 No. 1 Draft Pick, finally secured his first NBA title in 2024 — defeating the Lakers' dominant Shaq & Kobe 2.0 duo in a 7-game thriller. Jordan's clutch 3-pointer in Game 7 became an instant global meme.

Boxing:

The sports world holds its breath as Mike Tyson is set for release in 2025 after his shocking 2023 arrest. Rumours swirl of a redemption arc fight against Boxing champion for the belt.

🎥 MOVIES: The Most Transformed Industry

The film industry experienced the most dramatic change. In a world this vast, the butterfly effect rules — one actor missing a role, one script not greenlit, and an entire franchise may vanish from history.

Disney doesn't exist in this timeline. A real-world corporate collapse in 2002, combined with stricter global IP laws, meant it never achieved global domination. Without Disney:

Pixar never rose.

Marvel stayed a niche comic line.

Star Wars remains a cult favorite never leaving the comics, never becoming a global titan.

Even anime changed. The Father of Anime, Osamu Tezuka, wasn't inspired by Disney films in this world — leading to a drastically different evolution of Japanese animation. Though anime still thrives and is bigger than ever, many beloved series never existed: no Naruto, no Frozen-style influence, no Toy Story crossover universes.

The Ripple Effect Changed Everything. with plenty ips lost .

Highest-Grossing Movie of All Time:

Romeo and Juliet (2018)Directed by the EX-rank William Shakespeare, this modern reimagining became a cultural reset.

Box Office: $16.3 billion

No piracy. Every seat filled. Every VR viewing paid. Every ticket holographically signed.

The world's first $2 billion movie production, shot in 35 global locations with 4D camera rigs.

🔚 Final Thoughts

Entertainment is no longer just a distraction — it's the heartbeat of civilization. Whether in a game that mirrors life, a song that echoes across continents, a match that unites billions, or a film that rewrites culture, the industry doesn't just reflect the world — it shapes it.

This is my cinematic world, where several of my books take place. They include:

A movie entertainment book about owning a media company and bringing lost films back to life — currently in progress.

A boxing book following an original character from a long line of boxing legends. The family title has always eluded them, and he is the last hope. The story tracks his battles against legendary fighters and beasts like Sonny Liston, Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, and others — currently in progress.
