Chapter 227:

[The Hobbit] was finally released.

The book became an instant success since the author, W Evans, had already gathered quite a big reader base and many of his fans were interested in what he claimed to be a whole new world, with a different approach in terms of writing.

For all one searched, many book reviewing sites, like BetterReads, gave rave reviews to [The Hobbit].

Just as the reviews kept coming in, within a week of its publication, people were already delighted to read this new addition for their world of fiction.

***

In a certain bookstore, around 9.45 in the morning.

“Airing....Action!”

“Good morning New Yorkers! We are at the Red Read bookstore, one of the largest and oldest bookstores to be established in the middle of the city. For all the listerned wondering what this hype is about...

Let me share! The line behind me, with almost a hundred people outside the store, is basically to buy Will Evan’s newest work of tale, [The Hobbit]! And the bookstore was supposed to open at 10 this morning, and due to all the chaos, the owner, Freddie, even arrived early. You’d have guessed what sort of an environment I’m in.”

It was not just one reporter, but there were around five to seven reporters covering ‘just’ that bookstore.

“...Ever since the first release was out, it had been reported how good the reviews for the book came out, even from well-known authors.

hey there–”

“Jason,” One of the readers who were in the queue answered when the microphone was shared to him.

“Yes. It will be a science fiction action comedy franchise. The script is not yet fully ready...however, this movie will be comparatively strange and unique than anything else that the audience have seen. The major idea of the movie will be about loss, xenophobia, and finding one’s place in an ever-expanding universe. And yes, Xenophobia is the dislike of or prejudice against people from other countries.” Will said and some people took notes of his plans with Dream Vision.

“The next project would be...” Will turned to the next slide. “[Pirates Of Caribbean]. This will be our third next franchise after [Harry Potter] and [Man In Black]. And since it is going to be big, also because I want to, I’ll be directing this movie myself. If you’re trying to get a small grasp about what this movie holds, let me tell you that this is going to be a fantasy swashbuckler film series.”

“Swashbuckler.... Interesting.”

“I like it more.”

“Did he say he would direct that?”

Different unknown whispers spread through the room as Will went silent after these words. He looked at people and noticed how excited they were about the upcoming Dream Vision projects.

Even Amanda and Jeffrey were discussing something about the movie in the presentation.

Nevertheless, after a few seconds, Will spoke again.

“And, last but not least, [Sherlock Holmes 2] will straightaway get into pre-production. Now, are there any more questions? Oh wait, about the time periods, I don’t think we should rush any of our releases but take time as much as possible to execute the idea to the epitome. But, if by any chance something unfortunate comes up, we’ll have to act accordingly.”

Will had also bought the [Matrix] series from the System, but he was putting that for later. Even the next Spider Man series and Marvel plans were not discussed in this meeting, because he wanted to hold a separate meeting for that.

Now that he had finished talking about the upcoming movies, he glanced at the CEO of Pixar Studios while addressing everyone once again.

“[The Lion King] would be the first animated movie.” Will said, “For this, we will hold auditions for the voice actors.]

After a brief pause, he added, “And now, we need to discuss [Ultimate Spiderman] and [Friends]’ the second season.”

At the mention of [Friends] almost many of them looked confused.

“Will, I think [Ultimate Spiderman 2] is already in discussion and in good hands. But what are we going to do about [Friends]? We have to take immediate action with what happened, also we need to begin the production pretty soon as well.”

It was Susan who had asked this. She was the producer for the [Friends] series and was in the meeting from the beginning, albeit sitting quietly while waiting for the current subject to come up.

Will nodded at her, “You’re right, but don’t worry about it, the auditions will begin soon and even I will take part in auditioning prospective actors for the role.”

His words surprised Susan but she nodded and decided to discuss her doubts once the auditions began.

After nodding at her, Will turned his head towards the screen and as the slides changed, he added, “Now, we will have the final agenda of our meeting.”

On the screen, two lines appeared:
