#Lee tekken 4 series#

He was now CEO of Violet Systems, a very successful robotics company whose aim was to create a utopian world where menial labour was carried out by androids. 21 years after the second Iron Fist Tournament, Lee presented himself in disguise as Violet at the fourth King of Iron Fist Tournament. He was expelled from the Mishima Zaibatsu for siding with Kazuya, although in Tekken 7, Lee noted that he was cast out of the Mishima Clan itself, likely for knowing too much about Kazuya’s Devil. It is unknown exactly what happened to Lee after Heihachi defeated him. In the course of the tournament, Lee fought against his father who was furious that Lee had taken Kazuya’s side and considered Lee to have betrayed him. When Heihachi was revealed to be alive, Kazuya called a second tournament in order to lure Heihachi out and defeat him. At this time Lee seems to have been deeply unhappy, and was approached by Wang Jinrei who offered to train him and encouraged him to work against Kazuya, who was increasing the corrupt practices of the corporation. In the aftermath of the tournament, Lee was offered the position of secretary by Kazuya, likely in an attempt to humiliate him since Lee was very over qualified for the position. Kazuya went on to apparently kill their father and then became CEO of the Mishima Zaibatsu. Ultimately, however, Lee lost to Kazuya in this tournament, likely in the semi-finals, after defeating King who came third. When Heihachi announced the first King of Iron Fist Tournament, Lee saw his chance to beat Kazuya, and intended to win sole inheritance of the Mishima Zaibatsu for himself. Whilst living in America, Lee garnered a reputation for himself in the fighting world and became known as the ‘Silver-Haired Demon’. Heihachi also gave Lee some power over the American branch of the Mishima Zaibatsu when he was older, and, at this time, a few years before the events of Tekken, it is likely that Lee moved to San Francisco, since he met and trained with Marshall Law and Paul Phoenix (Law’s restaurant is stated to have been in San Francisco). He did however give Lee both a thorough martial arts training and an education in business. Heihachi never seems to have taken much interest in Lee, other than to pit him as a rival to strengthen Kazuya. Lee was raised with the same strict upbringing as Kazuya and learned Mishima Karate alongside him. Since Lee was old enough to impress Heihachi with his fighting skills, he was likely adopted after the key events of Kazuya’s early childhood (Heihachi taking over the Mishima Zaibatsu, imprisoning his father, Jinpachi Mishima under Hon-Maru, killing his wife, Kazumi Mishima, and throwing Kazuya off a cliff), all of which occurred when Kazuya was 5 (Lee would have been 4 years old at the time). However, his true intention was to give his son, Kazuya Mishima, a rival and to annoy him with the threat of another son. Impressed by Lee's fighting potential, Heihachi adopted him as his son and brought him back with him to Japan. Heihachi Mishima found Lee in the streets of a Chinese city whilst he was on a business trip. Lee’s parents died when he was a young child, and he lived thereafter on the streets as an orphan.
