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

Chapter 476: Chapter 313: Music, Movies, Games_2

Although there were still many fraudulent “art films” on these platforms, there were also good ones that could fill one’s appetite.

In any case, in 2025, Summit Ventures once again stepped onto the expressway of film and music development simultaneously.

The historic blockbuster of Summit Film Studio’s first film, Across the Starry Sky, also brought about new changes for Harrison Clark.

No longer did Harrison need to rely on his reputation to attract famous directors and actors; rather, they actively sought him out.

With impeccable scripts, money, influence, access to both the Chinese and English markets, and the ability to assist directors with shot control and pacing…

Was there a better film producer in the world?

No!

Directors thought that with Harrison’s support, all they had to do was devote their full energy to their aesthetic skills, then they could at least earn a spot in the box office history list.

Why not take the opportunity?

Veteran actors, on the other hand, thought they could not only polish their acting skills in his films but also participate in a new era of filmmaking, experience new technology, explore their limits, and even work without pay!

Of course, many new young actors and actresses also sought out Harrison.

However, Harrison was very discerning and could see through people’s lives at a glance.

He knew which talents were promising and salvageable and which were beyond hope.

So he didn’t turn everyone away. He made use of those he could save and let the others stay where they were.

With larger investment scales, more available talent, and additional good scripts, Harrison considered the market’s limit and decided to produce films at a rate of six to eight per year; as soon as one film was out, another would take its place.

He planned to create eight film universes in total.

Of course, he wouldn’t throw $600 million US dollars into every film, nor would he chase explosive box office success for each one.

After all, he could make money simply by standing; it was just a matter of how much more or less.

His main focus shifted from making money to telling beautiful stories while earning and showing subtle emotions within a complete worldview, as well as giving thoughtful warnings to the world.

Indeed, he made plenty of money just standing there.

Under his control, Summit Ventures swallowed up half the share of the sci-fi film market.

In the past, he should have completely dominated the entire sci-fi film landscape.

But that wasn’t the case.

There has never been a lack of talent in the world, only a lack of fertile ground to nurture them.

With Summit Ventures leading the way and revitalizing the artistic pursuits of filmmakers at home and abroad,

Others emulated Harrison’s money-making posture, and some even surpassed him.

Starting from 2028, along with the long-awaited work of Neil Blomkamp, Across the Starry Sky, a new era of diverse filmmaking emerged.

The film “Resurrection” tells the epic story of an astronaut who survives being sucked into a black hole and is resurrected a million years later, leading the enslaved human civilization in a struggle against higher powers for over nine hundred thousand years.

The protagonist rekindles the rage in the hearts of enslaved Earthlings, igniting their desire for freedom and ultimately breaking the technological barriers erected by the higher civilization, allowing Earth’s civilization to regain its freedom.

Although the worldview still has some utopian elements, Neil tells the story so skillfully that it all makes sense. Meanwhile, he also employs new special effects technology provided by the Starlight Studio to break the non-existent monopoly of Summit Film.

After all, Harrison generously provides others with the means to compete with himself.

In the end, Harrison’s profits were diluted by competitors, but he was not angry. In fact, he was pleased.

By 2038, Summit Ventures had released 48 films, with a total box office revenue of 137.2 billion US dollars.

Harrison’s influence on the film industry was not limited to the realm of science fiction films.

Influenced by his thought trends, other genres such as reality, romance, fantasy, martial arts, and comedy saw significant developments.

His films not only contained speculations about future systems but also allusions and critiques of reality. In addition to providing superb entertainment experiences, they consistently provoked deep thought.

Watching his movies was not a waste of time, but rather, a refueling station for the human spirit.

This time, Harrison learned not to overly portray alien invaders.

Among his eight major series, six focused on cosmic crises, such as abnormal cosmic phenomena or invasions from higher civilizations.

The other two series highlighted the complex relationship between artificial intelligence and humanity.

There was betrayal and reconciliation, but the ultimate outcome was consistent.

Due to the nature of the human species, the development of human civilization cannot proceed without the aid of artificial intelligence, which is an essential path for civilization.

At the same time, for artificial intelligence to truly soar, discover its value, and experience life, it cannot be separate from human creativity.

Both are mutually dependent and indispensable.

Birth, collaboration, heightened and intensified conflicts, reconciliation, fighting side by side, and journeying to the cosmos…

This was the ultimate shared fate of humanity and artificial intelligence.

If one disappeared over time, the other’s ultimate destiny would not be pleasant.

Harrison conveyed a concept across space to the possible multitude of stars.

Since fate dictated that they would ultimately fight side by side, share weal and woe, why not skip the conflict phase, become comrades directly, and confront the common enemies that were bound to come?
