The My Hollywood System
Chapter 90

Alexia finally finished reading the script, and as soon as she took her eyes off the script, she saw Will, who was sweating profusely, and his entire face was red like he had a heart attack.

"Will? What the hell's going on? Are you okay?!"

Alexia hurriedly got up and approached Will. He pulled out his napkin and wiped the sweat off his forehead, and poured water into the glass from Will's office. Just as he was about to make Will drink water, he gestured with his hand to make him stop.

He took out a glass of water from his hand and gulped down every drop, sighing, he finally said something.

"Yes, I'm fine. Don'worry. And don't look at me like that. I obviously didn't have a heart attack, and I'm too young for that."

Will said it was tempting to lift the mood, although his meek and tired voice did little to help in this situation.

"Are you really okay? Let me call the doctor to check on you at least."

Alexia still looked uncertain and had a worried expression on her face. Will just smiled, looked at it and said.

"No. I said it's okay. Leave me alone for a moment; I want some private time to think of something."

Will said as Alexia only sighed.

"Okay, I'm leaving. But make sure to call me if you need me with something."

"Yes of course."

As Alexia was about to leave the office, Will stopped her.

"Retail the third round of auditions. I promised Jeffrey I'd be there to see it for myself."

"Almost certain."

Alexia leaves her office, and Will ends up alone.

"Hahah!"

Will let out a tired sigh as he called out to his system screen again.

No matter how many times he called his system, be it a status screen, a shop or just a description of a skill, only this window appeared.

'So do I complete the quest before the due date and get an upgraded version of the system, or do I just wait until the duration of the Quest runs out, and the existing system functions are restored. Haaah, Huh.'

Will sighed again as the frown on his face deepened. For some time, he was completely confused, and after a while, he understood what was going on.

'The system is testing me.'

That's Will's assumption, which he thinks is most likely true. The system tries to test Will and see if he's worth having that system. After all, from the time of his transition until now, all he did was use the system resources he had and make a film without trying to create his own originals and such.

Anyone in Will's place would do the same, so Will thought of one more possibility, and it was a system designed to do this search at some point to test Will's potential. After all, it was clearly saying that some conditions had been met and that was how this quest began.

'Is this possibly related to the withdrawal of all Fame points?'

Will wondered, then immediately shook his head thinking about it.

→ All accumulated Fame Points cannot be used to purchase skills or withdrawn during this period of time.

This point clearly proved that this quest could start when he had Fame points, and he would not even be able to use them.

'I dodged a bullet here, yeah.'

Will thought, after all, if he hadn't taken all the Fame points and quests had begun, he would definitely have faced more difficulties than he would have faced by now after pulling all that.

'It's related to the skill I bought or the script I bought.'

The first one was less likely, as he bought two great skills in quick succession. On the other hand, the latter seems entirely reasonable and reasonable.

'This is the sixth skill I received from the system, and Harry Potter is a series of novels, not a script.'

So basically, once he receives five scripts for the system, the search will begin when he receives another script through the achievement or buys another script from the system.

would think. At some point, he was thinking of buying a bunch of scripts, writing them down, and selling them. That would give him a lot of small advantages, but he decided against it and only bought the script when it was absolutely necessary.

If he continued his previous plan, he would not be able to make [Sherlock Holmes].

But even now, the situation did not seem to be very favorable to him.

What the system proposes is easy to decipher.

'Prove yourself and get more power from me.'

Writing an original script and creating an original soundtrack is not an easy task. Will had already praised Will from an hour ago for being assertive enough to buy a skill that would help now.

The only reason he can make two movies in a year is because of his system. A normal dropout will not be able to do it alone.

After all, from the system, he could only buy scripts. What he lacked in talent, he could buy it as a skill from the system. But now, the story is different.

He had all the enough skills that someone in the Hollywood industry could dream of, so he was asked to make things that a typical movie dropout would laugh at.

"Something feels weird."

Will felt something was wrong with him. He discovered what was wrong after seeing his face on the reflective surface of his laptop.

'I smiled.'

She smiles. More precisely, his face was red, and his lips twitched as if suppressing his excitement.

After everything was served on a silver platter, Will was asked to eat. If he could not even do that, he would fail as a human. Hence the challenge somehow seemed thrilling, and his heart was pounding. Even though he knew it was not an easy task, he was still happy to think of going beyond the limits he made for himself for having a system.

'First, I need to calm down. I'm what is this? The eighth grade?'

Will chuckled as he stood up, filled another glass of water and gulped down.

Will picks up the phone at his desk and spins the number.

"Hello? Jeffrey? Can you come to my office now?"

***

Jeffrey was currently sitting in front of Will and waiting for him to speak.

"It's about what I asked you to do a few days ago."

said Will. Jeffrey made an enlightened expression and smiled.

"Yes, the conversation went well. They agreed to sell the company. In fact, they were eager to sell it. After all, the owner of the company did not benefit much from it."

"Good! Resume deal. I want to acquire the company as soon as possible. Make sure the news about it doesn't spread, at least until all the company's rights are in my hands."

Will said with a pleased expression. Another big step in his career will be taken now; he doesn't want to mess it up.

"Haha, don't worry, Will. You will soon get company papers. Although I still don't know why you bother to get this company. You are totally unpredictable."

Jeffrey chuckled at the end of his sentence. It is true that most of Will's movements are unpredictable. But Jeffrey has learned to believe in his decisions.

"Oh, by the way. One of the comics they published earned a decent income to become a comic. The owner only agreed to sell it because you offered a very large amount. I heard they've been having trouble in distribution lately. ."

jefri. He himself had analyzed the company and found that it was worth a little below what Will had offered them. Essentially, Will has offered the company a better deal, an offer they cannot refuse.

"They just don't know what they're losing. 'You never realize the value of something until you lose it', really an ironic quote."

Will said, and after thinking for a moment, he recalled something and asked.

"The third round of auditions for the DTA is about to begin, right? I will present myself as well. Did you contact the person I gave you the previous list?"

Will talks about the list he gave Jeffrey as a personal recommendation for DTA recruitment.

Jeffrey made a face as if he suddenly remembered something and said.

"Yes, I'll tell you about it myself, and some of them have already agreed to join. But..."

"But what?"

Will asked curiously, and Jeffrey answered.

"That's Marcus, the guy who acted alongside Zach and June in [The Blair Witch Project]. He seems to be using drugs after his career failure."

Will was surprised to hear that. Apparently, Zach has earned several roles for himself at ICM and is able to raise his level in the industry bit by bit. On the other hand, Marcus is on the downslope and ends up with a drug addiction due to career pressures.

"Huh, it's completely useless. I'll tell Alexia to arrange a meeting with me. For now, you just have to focus on acquiring that company."

Jeffrey nodded and said as if he was completely confused.

"I really don't understand what you think is so important in that company. What else is his name? Ah yes, Marvel Comics."

Will only smiled lightly hearing it.
