In fact, if this movie is a success, it will create a brand new opportunity for countless Asians struggling in Hollywood.
This will give them the opportunity to be the main characters as well.
Although, Cao Kun didn't care about this.
As they were talking, a staff member brought over the investigation results regarding the theater manager.
After reviewing it, Sivis laughed and said, "Master Cao Kun, 10% of the theater managers gave it an A+ rating."
Thirty percent of cinema managers gave it an A rating.
Three out of ten cinema managers gave it a rating of b.
The others are classified as C.
Category C means not recommended or not viewed favorably.
This only accounts for 30%, which is lower than Cao Kun expected.
Cao Kun: "Not bad."
Sivis: "Master Cao Kun, is it really going to be released before the end of the year? If the trailer is shown during the Super Bowl and the release date is moved to early next year, the effect should be much better."
Cao Kun: "No need. This kind of political thriller is not suitable for the atmosphere of the Super Bowl and may have the opposite effect."
Sivis thought about it and agreed: "How about setting the release date for early December?"
Cao Kun nodded in agreement.
This will be released a month later than Charlie's Angels.
However, by not competing with other blockbusters for the Christmas and New Year's season, it effectively created a time vacuum.
Sivis: "Then we need to start our promotional efforts. Master Cao Kun, do you have any good suggestions?"
Cao Kun pondered for a moment: "Besides promoting other selling points, we could focus on making Asians the main characters in our promotion. What do you think?"
Does it appeal to the sense of curiosity?
After saying that, Sivis realized that his words might have been a bit inappropriate, and he quickly explained, "That's not what I meant."
Cao Kun wasn't going to dwell on that: "That's the point. Since we can't avoid it anyway, we might as well just bring it out openly and leave no room for others to criticize us."
Sivis: "Maybe it's feasible, we can give it a try."
Soon, the Bourne series began a large-scale promotional campaign.
Cao Kun, the Asian protagonist, has surprisingly become the biggest publicity focus.
Universal Pictures touted it as "the first truly Asian male lead film in Hollywood history."
This caused quite a stir.
Online, major media outlets are also discussing this matter.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Global Times fanned the flames from behind, turning the matter into a major news story.
This led to a heated debate between supporters and opponents in the media.
Of course, the so-called argument was just a rational discussion.
After all, under the laws of country M, openly opposing other races is blatant racial discrimination and is illegal.
Although everyone is doing it, they can't say it openly.
Nowadays, whether you open a newspaper, magazine, watch TV, or go online, you can see two groups of people having a heated discussion about this issue.
A group of people said they support an Asian actor as the male lead, because the US is an inclusive and diverse society.
In reality, Asians have already contributed a lot to the United States. There are already many Asians in the police force, government departments, FBI, and CIA.
If it's possible to do this in real life, why can't Asians be the main characters?
Those who oppose it say it's not that they don't support it, but rather that it's a long-standing habit that makes it psychologically unacceptable.
Many people were unaware of the Bourne series or the actor Cao Kun, but as the discussion intensified, they naturally learned about it and related matters.
At first, Universal was just trying it out, but it turned out that the publicity effect was amazing.
Its popularity has remained high for a long time, and it's even more effective than the advertising they've spent money on.
Global Times then invested more resources into it, causing the buzz to reach new heights.
Time passed slowly, but there was still no movement from the mysterious department in Country M.
This made Cao Kun wonder if his Gu worms had been discovered.
They're just putting on a show for him.
Therefore, he deliberately changed his height and appearance, went to that stronghold, and personally investigated it.
As it turned out, he was overthinking it.
That's right, they don't plan to take action against him for the time being.
The defenses of this base rely entirely on technology and the spiritual perception of a creature named Page.
The woman named Paige was born with the ability to sense the spirituality of all living beings.
Including ghosts.
She even possesses the ability to see ghosts.
That's why she was able to spot the ladybug and the ant that day.
The others also each have their own abilities.
But compared to him, these people are all too weak.
If Cao Kun wanted to kill these people, it would be as easy as turning his hand.
As time goes by, Halloween, the annual holiday, is just around the corner.
Angelina and Winona had already contacted the eight models who survived the last incident to hold a masquerade ball.
Last time, their theme was role-playing.
This time, they are prepared to transform into all sorts of creatures.
For example, mermaids, orcs, elves, witches, human empresses, and so on.
Angelina also hinted that new people will be joining this time.
Cao Kun has high expectations for this.
"Exactly, Halloween is a time when all sorts of trouble can easily happen."
"The pumpkin head from last time appeared on Halloween."
However, Cao Kun thought about it and decided that even if something else did appear, it wouldn't matter.
At worst, we can just kill him.
As a result, before Cao Kun could even celebrate Halloween, an unexpected event occurred.
Three nights before Halloween, Cao Kun, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes.
The formation he set up at Chariz-Serone's house was activated.
The main function of that formation is that when a certain amount of negative energy enters the Charitz family's house, it will automatically sound an alarm, and Cao Kun, who set up the formation, will also receive the signal.
Previously, everything had been peaceful, and Cao Kun even suspected that his feeling was wrong.
The elderly couple next door probably really don't have any problems.
However, the special markings on Charlize's body were not removed.
Unexpectedly, it has now actually been activated.
"Are they the elderly couple next door?"
"Or are they other forces of Satan?"
Without a second thought, Cao Kun left the room and soared into the clouds.
Just a few minutes later, Cao Kun landed in Charitz’s yard.
Hearing the noise, Charlize, wearing a nightgown and a cardigan, took her phone and cautiously walked to the window to check.
Upon seeing that it was Cao Kun, she was overjoyed and quickly came over to open the door.
"I'm trying to call you, but I can't get through to you."
Cao Kun offered no explanation, but looked around the room and noticed a powerful, lingering evil energy. No wonder it caused such a commotion.
However, the outer array has now stopped alarming, indicating that the force has receded.
It's possible that after discovering the alarm signal, they chose to temporarily retreat to avoid causing a bigger commotion.
Of course, there could be other reasons as well.
Seeing Cao Kun's expression darken slightly, Chariz asked, "Is someone really trying to harm me?"
Cao Kun: "That force has now left."
Charlize thought of Cao Kun's prejudice against the elderly couple next door: "Are they the elderly couple next door?"
