Why it works
The first four seconds combine a centered portrait, giant name and three amber power labels; narration then escalates to national stakes by about 0:11. The 0:38 origin chapter reverses that promise with a vulnerable childhood, while dated documents, monetary figures and diagrams turn later claims into visible proof. The sampled replay peak at 4:20.8–4:32.2 overlaps a controversy cliffhanger and the bold Chapter 2 reset.
