As Cao Kun had predicted, he made headlines on the front page of major media outlets the following day.
Newspapers, magazines, and television media are filled with reports about him, as well as his video and photographic images.
Some media outlets have compiled a list of the female celebrities who have appeared with him, and found that in addition to Angelina Jolie and Winona Ryder, Rachel Li, Li Ruotong, and Jessica Chastain have also walked the red carpet hand in hand with him, suggesting an ambiguous relationship.
Thus, he successfully became Hollywood's new generation of playboy.
Of course, not everyone has the ability to earn this title.
The media gave him this title because some media outlets even dug up his resume.
Founder of mockumentary films, producer and investor of the Saw series, producer, investor and lead actor of Fast & Furious, producer and investor of Charlie's Angels, founder of Cao Xiang Film Company, and a billionaire.
Besides all that, he is also a mysterious and powerful exorcist.
Once these resumes were revealed, people immediately understood why Winona and Angelina were both confessing their love and vying for this man.
There's no way around it, he's just too outstanding.
More importantly, he's young, handsome, and single.
A man like that is hard to find anywhere in the world, let alone Hollywood.
Aside from the Hollywood media going crazy reporting on Cao Kun.
The media across the Pacific were even more frenzied.
On the internet, Cao Kun has become an idol for many young people.
That is, it was still 2000, the Internet was just starting out and not very developed yet.
Otherwise, Cao Kun's popularity would be terrifyingly high.
The direct benefit of this popularity is that the box office of "Fast & Furious" rose against the market trend on weekdays.
A new week has passed.
The Fast and the Furious franchise also grossed over $40 million on weekdays (Monday to Thursday, with Friday to Sunday counted as weekend box office).
In its opening week, it successfully surpassed $100 million in box office revenue, directly topping the weekly box office charts.
For an original film, for a film with a production cost of only $60 million, and for a film with an all-new cast, this is nothing short of a dark horse.
No, "dark horse" is not enough to describe it.
It's simply a miracle.
When a person achieves continuous success, they gain enough trust and a large number of followers.
Sivis called, his voice full of admiration: "Master Cao Kun, I'm impressed, I'm truly impressed."
I rarely admire anyone, but I truly admire you from the bottom of my heart.
Cao Kun: "Sevis, you called me just to tell me this."
Sivis: "I'd like to invite you to dinner to express my gratitude."
Cao Kun: "Having dinner is just an excuse; what you really want to do is invest in the sequel to 'Fast & Furious,' right?"
Sivis laughed and said, "Nothing can be hidden from Master Cao Kun."
Cao Kun: "No need for investment. Why should I share the money I can earn on my own?"
Sivis: "No one can guarantee that a movie will make money, so diversifying investments is a good way to diversify risk."
Cao Kun: "Let's drop this topic. You've all taken 22.5% of the box office revenue, so don't be too greedy."
Sivis sighed helplessly, "Alright, but I really mean it when I ask Master Cao Kun to have dinner with me."
Cao Kun: "Next time, I'm very busy right now."
Shortly after hanging up, Cao Kun received another call from Barry-Meyer.
Previously, the two sides had been unable to reach an agreement on the figures.
But now, Barry-Meyer has made concessions.
Cao Kun arranged to meet with him at Warner the next day with a lawyer, and if everything went smoothly, they would sign the contract.
After ending his call with Barry, Cao Kun prepared to call James Wen.
After Saw 2, Cao Kun gave them a break, and no one knows what they were doing.
But it's time to start Saw 3.
We can't break the tradition of releasing a Saw movie every Halloween.
This needs to become a habit for many horror fans.
Before he could even make the call, his cell phone rang first.
"Excuse me, are you Master Cao Kun?"
A middle-aged woman's voice came from the phone.
Cao Kun was already experienced with this: "I am Cao Kun."
"That's wonderful!" the woman exclaimed joyfully. "Master Cao Kun, an evil spirit has appeared in my house, and I need your help."
Cao Kun: "I charge very high fees."
Woman: "I know you cater to celebrities and the wealthy. I'm prepared. Name your price."
Cao Kun was somewhat displeased by the woman's mention of "service".
Because these are things that people basically ask him to help them with.
Cao Kun's business is not in the service industry.
This made Cao Kun feel less favorably toward this woman, so he deliberately quoted a high price: "5 million US dollars."
The woman was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting Cao Kun to quote such a high price.
But she quickly agreed, "Okay, but I'll pay you after it's done."
Cao Kun sneered, "Do you know the consequences of defaulting on your debt?"
Woman: "We will never renege on our debt."
Cao Kun: "Send me the address."
More than an hour later, Cao Kun appeared in an unfamiliar wealthy community.
This place is far from Hollywood; Cao Kun drove for more than an hour.
But the security here is indeed quite good; you can see police patrolling from time to time.
There are very few illegally parked cars on the street.
Arriving at the address the woman had sent, Cao Kun saw a very large mansion.
"No wonder they could afford a $5 million price tag."
Cao Kun thought to himself and began to examine the house.
He looked for a long time but didn't see a trace of yin energy.
This is not surprising. He now knows that many ghosts are very good at hiding their aura and their yin energy does not show.
After making a phone call, the garage door opened, and Cao Kun parked the car inside.
The small door leading from the garage to the living room opened, and a couple in their thirties appeared in the doorway.
Upon seeing Cao Kun, they hurried over, their faces filled with excitement: "Master Cao Kun, you've finally arrived!"
Cao Kun sized them up.
The couple looked to be in their thirties and were both fairly good-looking.
They looked very flustered, their faces filled with fear.
After shaking hands with them, Cao Kun looked at the woman and asked, "Was it you who called me earlier?"
The woman nodded: "Yes, you can call me Bonnie."
Cao Kun followed them into the living room. After they sat down, the male homeowner went to make coffee. Bonnie pleaded, "There are evil spirits in our house, Master Cao Kun, please help us."
Cao Kun: "How do you know there are evil spirits in your house?"
Bonnie found a videotape and played it for Cao Kun.
Cao Kun saw that the image showed their home.
As night fell, the couple had already gone to sleep, but something kept moving around in the house.
The bedroom door was pushed open, the window was opened, the curtains fluttered, and the cup fell to the ground by itself.
The tables and chairs were moved for no apparent reason, and so on.
This is a complete repeat of the Tom Cruise family incident.
Last time, Cao Kun dealt with an old woman ghost who had taken a liking to Tom and wanted to kill Nicole so she could be with Tom.
What will it be this time?
