The Ten Rings Headquarters is the primary headquarters for the criminal organization known as the Ten Rings. It previously served as the base of operations for Xu Wenwu prior to his death and is currently used by his daughter, Xu Xialing.
==History==
===Ten Rings===
====Wenwu's Conquests====
Since the formation of the Ten Rings, the base was used by Xu Wenwu to lead his campaigns for thousands of years, training many generations of soldiers and warriors.Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings
====Search for Ta Lo====
In 1996, Xu Wenwu had learned about the myth of Ta Lo, a realm home to many mythical creatures and legendary warriors that he sought to conquer. Seeking out Ta Lo, he went with his men through the forest maze only to nearly die. Eventually making his way through, Wenwu met Ying Li as the two fell in love after a brief fight. This eventually led to Wenwu leaving his rings behind in order to start a family.
====Raising a Family====
Once Xu Wenwu had fallen in love with Ying Li, he brought her with him to the base in order to start a family. During their time together, Ying Li gave birth to Shang-Chi and Xu Xialing as she taught them important life lessons. Ying told her children about the creatures of Ta Lo, ensuring them that the creatures would protect them.Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings: Who Guards My Sleep However, on one night while the three were outside, Ying Li was confronted by the Iron Gang, who wanted to kill her to get revenge on Wenwu. As Shang-Chi and Xialing ran away from the confrontation, Shang-Chi watched from a window as Ying Li was killed by the Iron Gang. Enraged by his wife's death, Wenwu decided to equip the rings once more and start training his children to become warriors.
====Trevor Slattery's Prison====
Following the 2013 copycat attacks that had slandered his persona, Xu Wenwu ordered the Ten Rings to attack the Seagate Penitentiary and kidnap Trevor Slattery for impersonating him and the Ten Rings. They sent Slattery to the base as Wenwu ordered for his execution. However, Slattery was able to impress him due to his acting skills. Since then, Slattery was kept as a performer for the Ten Rings.
====Family Reunion====
Following the Attack on the Golden Daggers Club, Xu Wenwu took Shang-Chi, Xialing and Katy Chen traveled back to the Ten Rings Headquarters on Wenwu's helicopter. On their landing, Wenwu announced that his son has returned, ordering his warriors to prepare for them. Some time later, Xialing went with Chen to her room, as Chen questioned why she left the Ten Rings. Xialing explained that because Shang-Chi never returned, she left to start her own life in Macau.
During dinner, Wenwu talked about his past as well as training his children. He talked about how he met his wife and how they lived a perfect life until the Iron Gang killed her, transitioning into the myth of Ta Lo. As the group went to Wenwu's office, he told them that he could hear his wife. Using the two pendants he received from Shang-Chi and Xialing, he revealed to them the way to navigate the forest maze in order to reach Ta Lo. He revealed that he was planning to attack the village in order to find his wife and urged his children to help him.
However, declining to join them, Shang-Chi, Xialing, and Chen were imprisoned by the Ten Rings. Hearing a noise nearby, the group decided to check out what it was, finding Trevor Slattery rehearsing for their arrival. The group made their introductions to Slattery, who briefly recalled the events of Aldrich Killian's war and how he ended up at the base as a performer. He introduced them to Morris, who was taken from Ta Lo by Wenwu. Trying to find a way to escape, Xialing punched through a light spot in the wall as they escaped.
====Escape from the Ten Rings Headquarters====
Escaping into the base's underground garage, the group got the keys to Razor Fist's car and drove to find the exit. However, Razor Fist spotted them through the security cameras, alerting the Ten Rings to stop them. Motorcycles pulled up behind the group, smashing through their windows as they continued to drive through the base. The car was nearly crushed by the garage door, but they were ultimately safe as Shang-Chi rushed to the front of the car. As the group escaped, they made their way out. Xu Wenwu, watching with rage, prepared his men for the attack on Ta Lo.
====Xu Xialing's Takeover====
Some time after the Battle of Ta Lo, Xialing went back to the Ten Rings headquarters to takeover the organization. She went back to her old room to clean up when she found a drawing of her mother, reflecting on it. She was approached by Razor Fist, who told her that the others were waiting. Being escorted by Razor Fist and Jon Jon, she sat on Xu Wenwu's throne, beginning a new era for the Ten Rings.
In contrast to its previously unadorned appearance under Wenwu, the headquarters received a makeover under Xialing's leadership, with contemporary Chinese graffiti beginning to adorn its walls.Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings Post-credits Scene
