Chapter 89:

As the audition process went on, 3000 out of the 5000 people were eliminated and only 2000 moved on to the interviewing and the final round. It was concluded that only 2% to 3% of these 2000 people would be selected as DTA actors.

After all, DTA was going for the quality over quality method. They would focus on 40-50 newcomers and try to get them roles in various movies, be it minor or major roles. Since these were the people that had gone through 3 rounds of auditions and made their way in getting selected into DTA, they would at least be talented at what they did.

The majority of them would get minor roles in Dream Vision movies, and those that had over the top talent would surely move to a better spot in Hollywood like this. Will wasn’t even that worried about DTA as he was more focused on trying to get out the best of movies. As long as he kept making movies that became popular, the futures of the actors working in DTA would be secured.

And this way, DTA would just get better. It wasn’t like Will would just let them work in his movies, working in his movies was more like a backup for those that wouldn’t be able to settle with other studio movies even after having talent, Will would just get them to work in his movies and would try his level best to make the best out of each of his movies.

His plan was to get a lot of good actors when they were still unrecognised, get them to work in his movies and try his best to make his movie a hit. Will would never produce or direct movies that he wasn’t confident in, at least not with these actors. This would secure both his, and the actors of DTA’s future.

Alexia had already been appointed as Will’s personal secretary. Neither Dream Vision nor DTA would be paying her. Her job was to work for Will solely, and she would receive her salary directly from Will.

6th August 2011

Alexia entered Will’s office as Will gestured her to sit and then handed her the manuscript of [Harry Potter: The Sorcerer’s Stone].

“This…?”

Alexia took the manuscript and read the title.

“It’s my book, a that I’m writing. I want you to find a publisher for it in America, it would be better if you don’t reveal my name before the contract is signed.”

Alexia gave a surprising look at Will but immediately subsided her expression and asked.

“We would still need a pen name if we are not going to reveal your name.”

“Use Evans W. as the pen name, not like it’s not my name, just a bit jumbled up.”

Will chuckled as he said that, and Alexia nodded.

“Read it a bit and tell me how you like it. The patent for this is already approved, so there is no risk of art theft.”

Will said as he saw the curious expression on Alexia’s face and her holding back from taking a peek at the manuscript.

“Okay then, excuse me.”

Saying so, Alexia got busy reading the script, and Will started typing on his laptop. He was currently managing his shell company’s account. Although he could just hire someone to do the account, he couldn’t trust anyone but himself with it. After all, all the transactions and records were fake, and although the system ensured total security that there wouldn’t be any problem, taking measures in advance wouldn’t hurt.

During the writing of Harry Potter, Will had realised that talent mattered a lot. He didn’t have much talent in writing, and just because he was experienced with scriptwriting, he was able to complete the whole book with much effort. But Will didn’t want to sacrifice any quality, and hence he came to a decision.

Opening the system shop, Will looked at the skill in front of him.

[Are you sure you want to purchase this skill?]

[Yes] [No]

Will select the ‘Yes’ option. His head suddenly felt light, and he almost staggered on the place. After calming down, he looked at Alexia, who was still busy reading the script and sighed in relief.

He was using the FP on skills because he wanted to withdraw all the Fame Points as the real-world currency. Since he was in the process of expansion, he wanted to go all-out and use his resources to his best. This was also why he was doing the accounts of the shell company since he would be withdrawing a big amount; although he was scared of the government and stuff, he decided to believe in the system and take it out with some precautions.

A lot of knowledge about mediaeval writing and modern writing had just been implanted in his brain like it always existed there. This just solidified Will’s belief in this fantasy-like system and made him want to take out all the money.

But before that.

[Cost – 1,500,000 Fame Points]

[Are you sure you want to purchase this skill?]

[Yes] [No]

Will selected ‘Yes’ again, and he was prepared not to stagger this time. Still, the light feeling that his head felt again was like he was on drugs and couldn’t think properly for a moment. After a while, his head calmed down, and again, information regarding music and each and every one of its basics were ingrained in Will’s head like they always existed.

It was truly magical and fraudulent, and Will felt somewhat guilty for the artists who worked their whole life to develop and shape out their talents. But he also felt a sense of empathy towards them as he could feel how much hard work and determination it takes to write, sing and compose a song.

The reasons as to why Will decided to buy musical skills. First of all, he had already gotten the skill [Intermediate Instrumentalism] a long time ago. And now, when he bought the writing skill, it also came with [Lyrics Writing], reminding him about the [Intermediate Instrumentalism] skill to Will.

As a filmmaker, Will needed to have the basic musical knowledge he already had. But if he had advanced knowledge about such things, he might end up making some movies better than their originals. After all, there were a lot of musicals that would make a fantastic box office in this world.

The third reason as to why he bought the skill was because he felt like he should buy it. He was about to empty up the system currency and wanted to use some of the FP in useful skills.

Fame Points – 53,800,000

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Inventory – {Empty}]

Will had 53.83 million Fame Points left that he immediately decided to withdraw, lest he took a liking to some other skill which would just increase his arsenal without much practical use.

[Do you want to withdraw 53,800,000 Fame Points as USD?]

[Yes] [No]

As soon as Will selected ‘Yes’, various notifications came to him. Not just from the system but also on his phone.

[$538,000,00 has been transferred to your bank account ending with XXXX]

This was the message that he received on the phone. It was so obvious that there wasn’t even a sender or source name as to where it came from, it just came to him somehow. It was like the last time he did it. Although there was no trouble, Will still kept a fake account of the money and even paid taxes on the money.

But Will didn’t have the time to think all that as the notifications in front of him sent him into a trance.

[System Upgrade conditions have been met.]

Will looked at the notifications in front of him, and for the first time ever since he transmigrated into this world, he lost his composed attitude and became slack-jawed. Things were taking a turn that he never expected.
