Reborn in modern family with cheats

Harry pov

Today is the day john release the album, with my song Primo Victoria as the title song, and with the teaser a few days ago and a marketing campaign that clearly states the song are written by author of Band of Brothers i even include a few bits of the lyrics in the book as an easter egg as a dialogue. 

The critics that being invited by the studio loves my song, together with the book they produce a strong impression on most people, some directors even want to make a movie from my book and put my song inside the movie of course, but since in my previous world it was a series, i kinda think it's better to make a series out of it after all they make 10 hours mini drama out of it, with a big budget of 120 Millions USD in 2001, should i replicated it or make a movie out of it ?

I just took it easy today, and let the public decide for itself if it's a good song or not, maybe I should take it easy, after all I got plenty of time.

Timeskip 6 month later

It's been 6 month since my song got released and around 7 month since my book published, and the reception is more than good, even i can say it was amazing, i make more than 1 million USD from the song alone and more than 2 Million from my book, with the extra 10 times from my system, i have more than 36 million Dollar in cash right now, in 1998 this is a big amount of money, and with a bit over a year since my last gacha, i have over 63 million idle points so i decided to simply keep it, adding more stats or pulling another gacha is not really necessary right now, maybe in the future ? and a few movie directors already contacted both my agent in the publishing house or Pat, my producers in UMG, so finally I relent and decided to meet one of them at noon in the UMG office.

Uncle Mitch drive me again to the UMG office, and yes he already became my private lawyer, i pay him with big bucks in yearly salaries, but for tax purposes we make it a contract and i don't know how he did it, but he pay less taxes using this way, and when we arrived at the office, Pat already waiting for me.

"Harry, long time no see, how are you ?" pat said to me while shaking my hand.

"I'm fine Pat, how about you ? everythings good ?" I asked.

"Well someone above wants you to write another song, after all Primo Victoria is doing very well in the charts" she said, maybe hinting at me to write another song after several months.

"Well , I have several songs but I'm not really sure that they will do as good as Primo Victoria. After all, I haven't published any new books yet. " I said to her.

"Alright we can continue this later, the director is already waiting for you upstairs " she said to me.

"Do I know him, Pat ?" I asked her.

"He is a big name in the industry, so maybe you do know him" she answered cheekily.

I just smiled helplessly and followed her to one of the meeting rooms, and finally I met the old white guy that said he is the director.

"Nice to finally meet you Mr Dunphy, my name is Steven S , I'm a big fan of your book " he said while shaking my hand.

"Please call me Harry Mr Spielberg, I hear a lot about your works, I even heard some rumor that you want to make a new movie this year right ? " I said to him, because I know saving private Ryan hasn't been filmed yet and if I can invest in the movie, I will, because it's gonna be one of the most profitable movies when released.

"Then please call me Steven , so Harry, how do you hear about the new movie I want to make ?" he asked me.

"Well rumors are travelling fast in Hollywood Steven, and if I'm not wrong it's a war film right ?" I said to him.

"Yes indeed, i want to make a war film, the same reason why i seek you out, because i want to make a series from your book Harry" 

"I'm interested in that Steven, so how's the number gonna be ?" I immediately go to the point.

"I like your style Harry, I think 1 million is a fair price for the right to make it a series right ? " he asked me.

"How about this Steven, 1 million dollars and I can invest in your new movie as an executive producer, and I won't do anything else and just invest and count my profits ?" I counter his offer.

"Really ? How much are you gonna invest in my new movie Harry ? "

"I'm thinking in the range of 50% of the budget and of course I get 50% of the profit from box office and other stuff like merchandise and home media, I know you work together with Tom Hanks that's why I'm so confident in your movie " I said shamelessly.

"Its gonna cost you a lot for 50% of the budget, maybe around 30 to 35 million usd " Steven look at me with a doubtful expression.

"Sure I can accept that price, should we write the contract for 35 million dollars ?" I said confidently to him.

"If you can pay immediately after signing sure, i agree " 

"Pleasure doing business with you Steven" I said happily.

After drafting the contact and making sure nothing are wrong, both of me and Steven sign it, and just like that i know I'm gonna make at least 200 million USD and with the 10 times bonus from my passive abilities, that 2 billion dollars in cash, with such a capital i can do a lot of things, even buying some profitable companies like apples.

[Mitchell commentary]

"How much money does Harry have ? I'm his private lawyer and I still don't know how much he has, did the loyalties from book and song pay that well ? Did I choose the wrong career ? a person that works less than a year making so much more money that i can make in a lifetime, is this even a real life ? or is this just a fantasy ? and look at the way he negotiates with Steven, he talks like it's only 35 dollars, such a confidence is really crazy. " Mitchell said while looking depressed, Harry already pays him over 200k a year, but it is still nothing compared to what Harry makes in a year.

[Commentary end ]

I need a team of professionals to manage my money, and to buy several stakes in prospect companies too.

After signing the contract and getting another 1 million dollars in my account, with 10 million dollars in the system account, I decided to grab lunch together with Steven and uncle Mitch. The 3 of us had a pleasant lunch before I decided to come back home and let uncle Mitch work from his house again.

Ding!

Suddenly I hear a chime inside my head, and for the first time, the system issues a mission to me.

First newbie mission : release a song that can reach billboard number 1 spot in less than 24 hours.

Time limit : 1 year.

Mission reward : a team of professional private equity managers with 100% loyalty to the host , note the team is always 100% loyal to the host and won't betray the host no matter what happens forever.

Punishment for failure : the system is gone.

Fuck… I guess I need to release Let It Be huh… so the next day i once again asked uncle Mitch to drive me to the UMG office , i already call Pat yesterday and she already waiting for my new song, this time i bring the Paperworks for let it be and i want to finish this in a day. 

"Pat nice to see you again, so this is one of my masterpieces that I want you to see." I said while giving her the paper.

"Let me check it first okay, we can talk more after that, you can relax first in this meeting rooms"

And then I can only wait in the meeting rooms and daydream about world domination.

Meanwhile in the Dunphy residence, General pov

"Mom I miss Harry, he seems to go out everyday these past few days " Haley complained to Claire.

"Sweetie , your brother is working, after all he wants the song he writes to be known by a lot of people" Claire explained patiently to Haley while teasing baby Alex with some small stuffed toys.

"So Harry and dad are both working ? then why I not working ?" Haley asks Claire while hugging her teddy bear.

"Yes dear, both your dad and Harry are working, you will work too in the future, for now you can enjoy playing around the house and go to school next year dear " Claire explained patiently.

"Will Harry go to school with me ? " Haley asked again.

"Ummm yeah, Mommy needs to ask Harry first, because he already finished what he should do " Claire said to Haley.

"So Harry doesn't need to go to school ? " 

"He already learned more than enough even if he doesn't go to school Haley, your brother is a bit different than normal kids" Claire try to explain slowly.

"Yeah… I know that too " Haley said dejectedly.

"Maybe he will join you in high school ? Who knows ? " Claire try to cheer her daughter up.

" I hope so" Haley said plainly.

Back to the UMG Office, Harry pov

After waiting for a long time, Pat finally came back to the meeting room.

"So i already talk with the higher up, they want this song but they feel that john voice are not suitable for this song, so we need to search another singer that have a voice matching this song"

She said to me.

"I agree, it's fine to change the singer, but i want to hear him singing it first before deciding if he can nail it or not" i said sternly to Pat.

"I can take care of that, maybe next week you can come back ? i will prepare a few singer to sing it and you can choose which one you like" 

"Deal, i will return in a week, and you can prepare your artist first" i said while standing up and decided that it time to go home. There is no negotiation about the fee because we already decided it all has the same rate as my first song, and with Let It BeI have a lot of confidence it can reach the billboard top spot within 24 hours.
