Sweet Subterfuge

“Migration to Mars” was one of Pluto’s early works. Although it wasn’t as famous as “Wormhole” and his writing style was more immature in that novel its content was simpler to understand.

The science fiction community regarded this particular novel as an entry into the rabbit hole as it did not contain an excessive amount of obscure knowledge, making it more palatable to the general audience.

After assessment by professionals in the film industry, they estimated that “Migration to Mars” would become Pluto’s most successful work, given that the level of production quality was similar to “Wormhole.”

Nonetheless, “Wormhole” had set the bar too high, VisualBox had financial backing from Microworks Corporation, so they could afford to hire a top-notch production crew from Tinseltown and put the most realistic visual effects into the film. Other production companies in Caldor couldn’t compete on the same level.

However, Xavier refused to take their advice. “As long as I can secure sufficient investment and hire the post-production team who had worked on “Wormhole.” breaking even would be a piece of cake!”

He found out through the grapevine that VisualBox had only invested around a hundred million dollars on their post-production costs. Back when he still had Cody’s support, the marketing and promotion budget for an average film easily exceeded that amount.
