I Really Didn’t Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World

Chapter 650: Chapter 409: Let’s Change The World Together (5200 words, seeking monthly votes)_2

“Yes, but to create something new from nothing, it cannot be conjured out of thin air, it requires the support of an industry chain. Because researching and advancing new technologies requires financial investment. The more important and newer the technology, the more funding is needed. Therefore, technology cannot exist apart from reality, artificial intelligence ultimately exists to serve human computing needs.”

“So, I chose to start from the field of film special effects, which is currently quite extensive and can quickly allow ordinary people to experience the changes it brings to the times. Diaz, come on, join me in using new technology to change the future of movies and the future of humanity. Isn’t this exactly what you want to do most?”

Harrison Clark didn’t like politics, nor did he ever claim to be a politician, but his speeches were somewhat provocative.

James’s emotions were slowly being mobilized.

“So, Mr. Clark, what kind of effect can your engine achieve?”

Harrison Clark opened a blockbuster from the past two years known for its special effects and said, “If we have to measure it with data, I can achieve at least three times the level of image accuracy, fidelity, and expressiveness. As for rendering speed, it should reach ten times the current highest level. Moreover, the difficulty of modification will be greatly reduced, and even a simulated environment can be directly generated on the basis of the original painting, allowing for fine-tuning as desired.”

At James Diaz’s words, he pondered for a moment and then brought up another issue.

Harrison Clark now knew what he had been worrying about just now.

It was the post-production special effects of the movie he was currently shooting.

James Diaz had already built up a large and professional technical team around his own needs many years ago, and maintained close cooperation with multiple large post-production special effects teams worldwide.

In terms of post-modern film industry technology, he considered himself second, and there were probably not many who dared to claim to be first.

Yet even so, his constant desire to do better has never been satisfied.

He always remained picky and dissatisfied.

This time, some details have stumped him.

Others would probably be willing to muddle through, but he was not.

If he wants to achieve the perfect effect in his mind, it would require not only an additional investment of over 50 million US dollars, but also an increased production cycle of four months after the completion of the film.

But according to the movie’s release schedule, there wasn’t enough time.

After listening to James’s needs, Harrison Clark personally decided to take on the task for 20 million dollars and compress the delivery cycle to within one month.

Although James absolutely trusted Harrison Clark’s capabilities, for business considerations, Harrison Clark made a huge concession in the payment mode.

Starlight Studio had just set up a framework and had only a few employees.

This first order was worth as much as 20 million US dollars, and the contract was too stringent to be fair to others.

Harrison Clark stated that no deposit or advance payment was needed until the finished product came out and was fully approved by the investors, the production team, and the directorial team led by James himself.

Of course, he was not afraid of people being deliberately dissatisfied and refusing to pay while playing tricks on him.

With Harrison Clark’s own immense influence and the support of even more immense industry capable of controlling the direction of technology development for the next few decades, no one would risk ruining their relationship with him for 20 million dollars unless someone had taken the wrong medicine.

The two even signed a letter of intent.

If the new technology that Harrison Clark described could perfectly solve James’s current predicament and the content produced by Summit Studio appeared in the final film, James Diaz would direct “Across the Starry Sky” and no longer try to add any personal ideas into it.

He would follow the script strictly, and even the storyboards would meet Harrison Clark’s requirements.

He would simply be a faithful executer, turning the script into images—a so-called “tool person” in the director’s seat.

If this news were to get out, it would shock many people’s jaws.

The great James has fallen, succumbing to reality.

With most of the important matters handled, it was time for small talk, and Harrison Clark accepted James’s invitation to visit the shooting site.

It took nearly ten minutes to get from the office building to the large shooting studio, with Harrison Clark seeing many built sets of shooting scenes along the way.

James proudly explained each one.

He told him which mound he dug up himself, how much effort he put into planting real vegetation on it to make it logically consistent, and how many gardeners he hired to take care of the plants.

In the actual shooting process, this mound would be the main set for the actors to advance the plot, with a large green screen behind it to facilitate post-production.

Harrison Clark was impressed.

No wonder the visual quality of other people’s A-Class blockbusters was so strong, they really invested heavily.

Upon arriving at the photography studio, where the sets were still being built, the scene seemed to be bustling with activity.

The huge workshop had been set up with more than ten different types of rooms, representing different functional areas inside the spaceship.

At this point, there were more than 400 staff members at the scene.

For some low to medium-cost sci-fi TV shows, similar sets would often be rented and then modified, so careful viewers could easily spot familiar scenes from other shows while watching.
