Trivia[]
- He is strongly inspired by Australian-born billionaire Rupert Murdoch, owner of News Corp and subsequent owner of various international branch news and publishing outlets. His marriage to Wendi Deng (the inspiration behind Jody Menzies) produced two New York-born daughters, who aren't particularly close to their much older siblings (alluding to Aki's absent older half-siblings).
