Chapter 18 Journey to the West

Of course Andy was just talking about building a temple, but it was necessary to design an Olympian complex.

Filming involves all aspects, but background rendering is definitely a very important part. The Temple of Olympus built by Andy when filming the Apollo series was still very crude. Now in order to film "Apollo White Dragon Fish" successfully, it is necessary to build a

The glorious and fantastic Temple of the Gods.

However, if he really wanted to build a temple of the gods in Andy's mind, only someone like Iron Man and Batman could afford it. Andy decided to spend money to numerically model the entire Olympia Temple, which would save a lot of money.

The day after the Orcus incident ended, Andy consulted a special effects company called Digital Ark. This company is a second-rate special effects company and had done special effects for "Clash of the Titans". Andy estimated that he would complete his own

The requirements are not a big problem.

There were three people who received Andy, a technician, a business manager and a business assistant.

"Refer to Rivendell and the temple ruins in Greece in "The Lord of the Rings". The temples should be majestic and glorious with holy light, and the gardens should be filled with fantasy colors with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers. It would be best to add some goblins. Each main god has a small divine world.

, Apollo Palace is located on a high mountain by the sea, similar to the LinK Memorial Hall. There is only one throne inside. Behind the temple is a hibiscus tree. Next to it is a bathing valley for gods, with a sun suspended above it. Within a kilometer radius of the temple

It’s a meadow, there’s a forest in the distance, and there’s a mermaid in the sea.”

"The Moon Temple of Artemis is located among the laurel trees on the moon. The main color is moon white, similar to the elf queen Galadriel in The Lord of the Rings. Her bow and arrows are hung on the laurel trees."

"The temple of Ares is located in the ancient battlefield. Heroic spirits are fighting every day. They must do it cruelly. The temple of Athena is located."

Andy made a lot of requests and talked for about twenty minutes.

"Mr. Huang, if all of these are implemented in 3D numerical panoramic modeling, and every detail is taken care of, it is estimated that the cost will be 10 million to 30 million US dollars, and the time will be more than a year. We need to prepare a requirement document for the specific amount.

The decision can only be made after confirming with you. If you feel ok, can we go through the process now?"

The expressionless quotation from the business manager made Andy almost spit out a mouthful of blood. He only came because he wanted to get a bargain, but he didn't expect it to be so expensive!

But those with limited wallets should not be discouraged. Andy said bravely: "Money is no problem, but you must provide a demo (meaning sample) so that I can see your strength, otherwise I will not trust you to give this job to you."

The other party nodded and said: "This is a normal request from customers, there is no problem, but we will charge 30% in advance before we can provide a demo."

Take the middle value, then the whole set will cost 20 million US dollars. Andy just mentioned thirteen temples, a garden and Olympus, so the average cost is about 1.3 million US dollars each, so let them make two first

, if you pay 30% first, that would be 800,000 US dollars. If you look at it this way, you can still afford it.

"Okay, then let's discuss the requirements for the Pantheon and the Temple of Apollo first."

It’s not that Andy is stupid and has a lot of money, because Barbara has already confirmed by email that she has accepted Andy’s offer. After the script comes out, Andy will have to look for investors everywhere. It will be easier to find investors if you produce an effects film, so you need to prepare some background.

After three hours of discussion, Andy's requirements document was finally finalized. He required a lot of details. There were various reliefs and artifacts in the temples, including fairies and goblins as maids, Greek heroes as guards, and outside.

The hitching stone for parking the chariots of various gods, and Apollo's divine realm requires more, and there are many features of the Eastern sun god in it, such as the Tang Valley where Apollo bathed, the hibiscus tree where Apollo's weapons were hung, and the hibiscus tree where Apollo manifested the sun.

etc.

The other party of the quotation contract will be sent to Andy's mailbox within two days. When the Apollo email confirms and scans the contract and sends it, the contract will be established. Pay the money and wait for the demo to be completed.

"You have to keep making money!"

When Andy thought about being short of money, he hated the black cat Felicia. Maybe that crown could hold up the numerical models of six or seven temples. Since when did Andy become a bed man after becoming an art film actor?

Have you paid for anything?

Black cats are so expensive!

In the afternoon, Andy returned home and Johnny was reading the "Heart Sutra". This guy had become interested in this kind of stuff since he followed Andy's advice and came into contact with Buddhism.

Seeing Andy coming back, Johnny asked: "Andy, when will the temple you mentioned be built?"

Andy shrugged and said, "I'm short of money. Why are you interested in Greek temples?"

"I would like to suggest that you put the statue of Buddha in it so that I can have a place to pray."

This...putting Apollo and Buddha together? It's a bit too inconsistent, and Apollo is Andy. Andy put himself on the same level as Buddha, which was very scary.

"We'll talk about it when we have money, but I think it's better for you to pray to Buddha than to suggest and encourage yourself."

Johnny shook his head and said: "Andy, I need the encouragement of Buddha. Human will cannot fight against the devil. It is too difficult for me to do it on my own."

This... is reasonable, but Andy decided to continue to deceive.

"Let me tell you a true story. There is a god named Guanyin Bodhisattva in the Dragon Kingdom. There are many believers. One day, an old lady went to the Guanyin Temple to pray. She saw a woman next to her who was kneeling to worship Guanyin. She was dignified and virtuous and dressed up like the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Exactly the same, she asked in surprise, who are you? The woman said I am Guanyin. The old woman asked, how do you worship yourself? Guanyin explained, I have to ask myself what to do when I encounter difficult things to solve, and ask for help.

It’s better to ask for yourself.”

"As for you, I feel that if you rely on external forces, you will always be limited by others. If you continue to suppress the will of hell with your own efforts, then you will become an existence that you admire now."

Andy spoke very seriously, and Johnny listened very seriously.

"Andy, I didn't expect that there are such wise gods in the Dragon Kingdom. Although you are right, mortal thoughts have limitations after all. I still need guidance. I think I should believe in a wise god like Guanyin Bodhisattva."

After saying that, Johnny muttered the name of Guanyin Bodhisattva and turned to the study room to check out information about Guanyin.

Andy shook his head. These Westerners are not happy if they don't believe in anything. Unlike the people of the Dragon Kingdom, whoever trusts the other will usually worship the Dragon King, but if it doesn't rain in the drought, the Dragon King will drag the Dragon King out and beat him up.

Is this the correct way to open up faith? Only by exchange of interests can we achieve long-lasting results.

However, Andy is really worried now that he doesn't have enough money.

In Marvel or DC movies, the two children who are often troubled by poverty are Spider-Man and The Flash. Few other superheroes are particularly troubled by money.

It's not that Andy hasn't thought about robbing villains to get some money, but now SHIELD or SkyEye are too strong in monitoring personal information. Once a large sum of money from unknown sources suddenly appears in Andy's account, he will definitely

Being monitored and analyzed intensively, it would be bad if they were found out later.

If you connect to the plot, such as helping Iron Man Stark and Batman and asking for money, Andy will not be happy. One is that the force level is low, and more importantly, both Stark and Batman will know how to do it.

Andy never wanted to be plotted to sacrifice other people for the safety of the earth.

When his strength reaches 100% god level and he has the strength to challenge these organizations, Kingpin Hydra and the like will be on Andy's mind.
