Around 8 p.m., in his library, a man and his laptop.

Ian had a relaxing day at the studio.

For most of the day, he spent most of his days in the studio looking through past materials and planning future investments.

For him, things are going well, and the time that passes feels like a break.

If he was right, he knew that it was the calm before the storm, the storm in the huge project that was coming, and the calm was a period when Ian had to go through it alone and think about the possibilities of the future.

Picking up his laptop, he picked up where he left off and continued.

Seconds turn into minutes... A few minutes turned into hours... Time is ticking, and Ian's mind is all occupied by the script for his next big project.

Ian thought for a moment and typed out the last few words.

_/\_

Her hand reached into the frame and stroked his cheek.

Slowly tighten to a very close distance, until—

he opened his eyes.

Cut to black.

Come to an end.

_/\_

He typed, relieved.

The next day was a planning meeting with Goofy's CEO and VFX supervisor to discuss Ian's plans.

Even thinking about it, Ian felt that he would soon achieve great things considering his situation.

He stood up, his mind full of these thoughts, and printed the script for Mason to read.

He knew that his uncle's reaction and those who had read the script would give positive reviews.

The film he chose is characterized by how lacking such a technical, storyline, creative film in the film industry.

According to Ian, he is ready to show the industry what it lacks and what benefits it can get.

With all his thoughts in mind, Ian finished all his work and went downstairs to drink some water.

"Sir?" Valerin's voice came, though the lights had gone out.

"Valerine, it's me. I had just finished my work,"

the lights came on, revealing an exhausted lady.

"I just heard some voices and I came over to see what it was.

"It's just me, you can go back to sleep,"

"Good night sir."

Valerin walked away and went back to sleep.

Ian went down and got a glass of water, and as soon as the water reached his throat, he felt that his mouth was dry, and considering that he was so attentive to his work, he couldn't feel it at all, and his mind was also occupied by work.

He walked back upstairs to sleep, thousands of thoughts going through his head.

[in the company of Goofy] "Again, here we are," Goofy's

CEO, Jeff Sanson, said as he walked into the office.

Except for Ian, Lucas sat there, fingers fidgeting in front of him.

Two meetings were scheduled for the day. The first meeting was with Ian's lawyer, Jordan Wright, and it was to discuss and secure a deal between them.

In the contract, it is not specifically stated about the project they are going to undertake, but about how the relationship will be during the first project.

This deal ensures that they agree to one of Ian's demands from everyone.

"Hello, Mr. Sanson

," "We've got Lucas here, so what's the plan, Ian?" Jeff looked at Ian questioningly, looking straight in the eye.

"yes, so... I finished the script, and the thing is, as you know, I need to arrange a trip to the Brazilian rainforest, and for that, I need to bring the whole VFX team," Ian said.

"Why?" asked Jeff immediately.

"Well, according to the deal now, this trip should be sponsored by Goofy. As for why the main reason is the project ... I want to create the world – the whole world from scratch.

The film relied heavily on the VFX department. For that, I don't think I can picture the whole world for Lucas in my head, I really need to show them what I want.

Since this is going to be a high-budget film, I don't want to risk it. So I'm suggesting that this should be done the way I want," Ian said. "And, in addition to Goofy's VFX department, I brought a few other people with me. Because as I said, investing in movies is very important — you know that very well," Ian said.

He intends to use Goofy's investment to make a big-budget film so that their need to work with Ian's film can be realized, but in reality, Ian is using them for the investment and VFX department – however, the film will be launched under Ian's name.

Hearing Ian's words, Lucas nodded.

When the president saw that the two were together, Ian explained this again, and reluctantly agreed with his idea.

"Of course, Ian! anything for you at the moment. I already have high hopes for this movie, so go the way you want. I will make sure that the necessary funds are arranged in a timely manner

," "Yes, what Mr. Reyna said is true. We've already discussed his thoughts. This movie is very unique. The VFX department can do wonders with it," Lucas said, drawing the attention of two people.

"Yes, I've heard of him. Yes, Ian. When are you going to leave?" Jeff said to Lucas.

Ian felt that being present with the two of them seemed to become intimidating because of how obvious the tension was.

"Hmm... Yes," Ian said, looking at Lucas, then turning his gaze to Jeff. "The Brazilian rainforest, then the Mariana Trench... And finally, New Zealand," Ian said.

"Oh well, so

, Ian..." Jeff, Ian, and Lucas continued their discussion.

But most of the time, Jeff barely paid attention to Lucas, as if Lucas wasn't among them.

-

After Ian discussed with Jeff Sanson and Lucas Campbell, the matter of their trip to the Brazilian rainforest with the VFX department was settled.

After the Brazilian rainforest, they also had to go to a few other places.

Ian plans to bring in a VFX team, a sound team, a camera team, and Mason.

Mainly because it's just the placement and interpreting what he wants based on what the actual location looks like.

“...... So, uncle, as I said, these are the roles I want. While we were preparing for the trip, I wanted to see if I could find any such potential players within the industry. More like, I have plans to get some scenes in the site itself, so I need to know who I'm going to be working with," Ian said, and Mason nodded as he listened.

"yes, give me two days and I'll see what I can do to help you with the cast. I think when I read about the role of the heroine, I remember a person. Belch...... Give me some time

," "Well, hurry up. I'm also trying to

find a way to find it," "I have this feeling that it's going to be a huge project, Ian. Considering how much you have planned for the film, the feeling must be so real. I also read the script. Frankly...... That's a way to put it! I can't think of any more," Mason said, and Ian raised an eyebrow for him to continue.

"Ian... Avatar, in my eyes, is an eye-opening movie. The world you build with this story could become one of the greatest things any director has done in centuries. The story, each character, culture, and the way you want to build a love for flora and fauna... It's extraordinary.

I really think that in the way you imagine this story in your head, if it becomes a reality, you're going to be the best in the industry in no time. The idea itself will fascinate and become fans of it, and what I can say now is.... You've got this, son," Mason said with a laugh.

"Thank you and hope everything goes well. These words mean a lot, uncle. And I know that if this film ends up being one of the greatest, your name will also be the reason behind it," Ian said modestly.

There are many reasons why he chose "Avatar" as his next movie, and the main reason is that Goofy accidentally contacted them. And, before that, he was writing another script, something far from the world of VFX, but as soon as it happened, he changed his plans.

Ian's Avatar in his previous life was a film shot by the legendary James Cameron, and with a budget of $237 million and a redistribution budget of more than $9 million, it earned $2.847 billion at the box office.

Ian knew that with Goofy's fame and technology, he would be able to capture the eyes and hearts of billions of people with this film.

Everything was worked out.

In less than two weeks, Ian and the crew had the trip, budget, personnel, and almost everything to get to their destination.

During these two weeks, Ian has other plans for the film. Casting is one of the most important things Ian has to deal with before heading to the filming location.

To that end, Ian wanted to see if there were any actors in the world who had actually acted in movies. He didn't mention such a thing to Mason and did his own investigation.

After trying different search engines, social media, and almost every possible medium, Ian found a girl named "Zoa Yadila", and he immediately turned to Mason for help.

Mason responded that he had never been exposed to such an actress, but with Ian's current popularity in the industry, he said that an interview could be arranged.

[At Studio Reina — Ian Rayner's office, a few days before the trip]

"It's nice to meet you in person, Ms. Ardira," Ian said. "

"Please call me Zoa, is there anything I can do to help you, Mr. Reina?" she asked, replying.

Her voice, looks, and even her hair resemble Zoe Saldana, a former world Ian knows.

"Call me Ian, I have a role for you on my next project," he said suddenly.

Zoa's mouth let out an "oh". She knows what a good director Ian is. Ever since she received the invitation to meet, she has been looking forward to meeting Ian Renner.

B-grade actress Zoya stumbled upon the industry as a supporting character in one of the greatest films of all time. Having won the most awards at the Oscars, Zoa also has her own story.

She worked as an anchor for one of the largest television newswires in the United States. Since she had an almost half-naked role, she had to make a deal with the channel and stop her streamer career.

Since her character is very prominent in the movie, she is ranked B. On the other hand, the film director explained the talent of the girl.

As a result, she has had a high exposure in the media since the film's release and is busy with two more films.

When she received an invitation to meet with Ian Renner, hope began to rise in her mind. The agent at her agency has given a brief account of the situation at Reina's studio and everything involved.

"Yes, this is a completely unconventional thing in the industry, and I want you to play the leading role..."

Sounds amazing. Does it have anything to do with Goofy?" Zoa asked rhetorically.

"yes, yes. We will be looking for help with VFX and distribution. The character is very different..."

Ian explains the whole situation in the new world, the aliens, and her character. As the minutes ticked by, she became more and more interested in the role and the film.

-

More than thirty-five people are on board with Ian, including Mason. The film crew, sound crew, VFX crew, and several others were with Ian.

Currently, they are preparing to explore the forested areas of the rainforest. Their plan was to cover the entire world of Pandora, the world of Avatar, which Ian had already mentioned and described to all of them before they arrived.

For the film crew, Ian brought two cinematographers. One of them is Nicole, and the other is a woman, Raelyn Sawyer.

Film crews have the most work to do on the go, and preparation requires different types of lenses. Underwater shots, drone shots, helicopter shots, and every shot that will be edited by the VFX department should be filmed during the visit. So, during their meeting, Ian mentioned each of their responsibilities.

"This looks absolutely amazing!!" Leylin said loudly, everyone could hear it.

"Wow!" "Look at that!" "That place looks so dark!" "Oh, that tree!" "I can't believe it!" The

wind blew strands of hair away from their faces, and people thought it was blowing their minds away as well - but it wasn't. In fact, this can only be blamed on the scenery in front of you.

"Welcome to the Brazilian rainforest!" said the guide who came with the group, and everyone could hear it.

[......]

Walking in the forest, everyone's heart is pounding in their ears.

The greenery around them is something that each of their brains captures.

With each step, their gaze wandered in the dense and sparse parts of the forest.

The amazing beauty of colorful flowers, dwarf shrubs, tall woods, different types of foliage, in fact, every inch of the forest seems to be important because of how interesting it is.

Some eyes are boldly focused on the breathtaking flora, and some are wandering around, looking for wildlife.

Ian, who was at the front of the line, paused slightly, causing everyone to stop where they were.

"Shhhh Listen—" he said almost in a whisper, but all his ears fell silent for a moment.

The slight noise made by the insects was enough for everyone to hear, and the people laughed when they heard it, and the wide-eyed and the person in charge of the soundtrack immediately recorded it.

"Let's go. After a while, the guide said in a thick British accent.

Everyone followed his lead.

All kinds of flowers and trees are beautiful.

Raelyn follows Ian, Mason, and Nick, who are closer than they were on the first day they met.

Raireen's gaze wandered over a bouquet of flowers with large tentacles.

"These are beautiful," she muttered to herself.

"Don't touch them, they're poisonous," Nick whispered, and Leylin couldn't help but jump back.

Walking in, a cool breeze hits, a cool breeze hits. A fresh breath came to the face, and most of the people had goosebumps on their skin.

The trees dance to the melody of the wind, and the green everywhere is nothing more than adding color to the feelings that seem to increase with each step.

It's almost as if after 2.4 miles, they feel like green is finally growing on them, and they have an undeniable connection to every greenery they come across.

"It's a lagoon," Ian said, walking ahead and seeing a beautiful stretch of water. Beautiful – it's not even as good as Ian feels when he sees the water.

Compared to the whole scenery in front of you, the clear blue of it stands out.

"Fu-

" "I wish I could live here forever!" "

Although I-it's a little cold... It looks very good," one lady was really shaking.

Ian took a big breath of fresh air, sighed, and turned to look at the crowd.

"And, we're walking more than two miles now and haven't said a word about what I want people to know. Let's sit down. I knew those legs were dying, silently cursing me.

"It's... It's the most beautiful thing ever. Here's what I want to paint in my mind's eye. In contrast to Pandora, the Great Forest, the avatar is a small being. That's what I want it to look like, and I want the photography team to focus on the small details in the forest. I know that Nick and Raelin have jotted down their thoughts on the camera in their hands, and the sounds... Just listen to your breath, and I'm sure it sounds completely different to you if you listen carefully now.

That's all there is to the forest..."

"Where to start telling the film ... So, let's start with the political side of the world. The world is definitely about imperialism because human history has always worked in such a way that people with more military or technology might replace or destroy the weaker, often for their resources..."Ian began to explain that many people were listening, some were listening, others were walking around the site to see the beauty of the site.

Then, exhausted from the first day, they walked back to where they had made an appointment to rest, and the first day of the forest trip covered almost nothing.

It was getting darker and darker, and they suspected it must have been around 6 p.m., as sound and darkness covered the sky.

Around the campfire, some people snuggled up in blankets, and some people were talking to each other.

And, Ian is talking to Raelyn and Nick about the world, and Mason is by his side.

The firelight in front of them gave them a warm feeling. After a tiring day of walking and admiring the plants, many of them had their brains not ready to continue the discussion Ian was having.

“...... All in all, it's not about Jack and Neytilly and that conspiracy. It's about you going to Pandora.

"yes, but before the valley, you mentioned the pumice... More details?" asked Leireen, holding the tape recorder.

"yes, after crossing the bridge. The picture I drew there... It should be made in the Pandora we created. That's what makes the world so special. As I said, the avatars are bigger than us, but in their world... They are small. Pandora basically protects them, and Pandora's main visual features are Moala and the floating valley, "

Ah, if the movie is high at the box office... We can create such a real world. Although I think for the production, we need more than a few thousand," Reelin said, and Nick nodded in agreement.

"Yes, Goofy will offer us, uh, did I mention the flora?... So, the landscape should include real terrestrial plant species and carved Pandora flora, each of which needs its own hidden control box to create the amount of illumination needed for nocturnal bioluminescence. It's like.... "

Magic?" Leylin's question caused them both to chuckle.

"Exactly..."

Two weeks passed, the days were long and the nights were short.

Currently, the entire membership is on a mountain.

The scenery above is terrifying, there are trees everywhere, and the depth of the fall is like death.

"Next stop, Mariana Trench! Here we come!" shouted

the man standing at the summit, and the others joined him, and as their voices disappeared into the vast woods in front of them, they did not think about anything but enjoyed it as it was.

A trip to the forest is life-changing.

Some people have a nervous breakdown, and some are pumped to the core.

Still, the next destination made almost every one of these 35 people feel "something" they had never felt before.
