The box office curve of "Spider-Man" continued to decline in the fourth week.

There's nothing you can do about it. The selling point of most commercial movies is their sense of freshness.

As time goes by, it loses its freshness, and most people have already seen it. The market continues to get smaller, and the decline is naturally irreversible, and it is a normal law of business.

Moreover, [Spider-Man] has been on the market for four weeks, and its stamina is no longer sufficient.

That is to say, "Spider-Man" was released in October. If "Spider-Man" was released during the summer vacation when there are so many people surrounding it, it would have been unbearable by now.

In the end, "Spider-Man" grossed 60 million in North America in its fourth week, continuing to win the North American weekly box office championship.

At the same time, it collected 130 million globally, officially raising the global cumulative box office of "Spider-Man" to the standard of 1 billion, and it is still 1.33 billion.

At this point, "Spider-Man" has officially surpassed Universal Pictures' flagship series, "Jurassic Park", which has the title of prehistoric predator, ranking second in film history. There is only one above it, and it is still very strong even more than ten years later.

Big Brother [Titanic].

Sony Columbia is proud of "Spider-Man" this time. It directly announced to the outside world that "Spider-Man 2" is already in preparation and will meet the majority of Spider-Man fans as soon as the year after next.

And Sony Columbia also waved its hand, and a promotional fee of 30 million was directly deposited into [Spider-Man]'s account.

After a series of celebrations, Sony Columbia failed to save any of them.

What... Celebration banquets, red envelopes, promotions and salary increases, there are a lot of them.

Others Cao Yu didn't know, but Cao Yu himself was given a red envelope worth one million US dollars by Sony.

Of course, this is nothing.

Not long ago, Cao Yu happened to meet Michael Ovitz, the founder of CAA, at a celebration party for Spider-Man. It might not have been a coincidence.

Anyway, the two of them were interested in each other, so they hooked up.

Cao Yu is very fond of CAA, because in Cao Yu's memory, later Robert Downey Jr. and Johnny Depp were able to get huge salaries from Marvel and Disney because of the CAA agency's advice behind the scenes.

Of course Cao Yu also wants to maximize his profits, so Cao Yu is very fond of CAA, and many top figures in the Chinese entertainment industry have signed contracts with CAA now and later.

Cao Yu felt that by signing CAA, he would be able to mix more easily and have some connections when he returns to China.

Michael Ovitz from CAA is even more optimistic about Cao Yu.

Can you not watch it? Cao Yu is the leading actor in a billion-dollar movie. Currently, there are only three in the world, including Leonardo DiCaprio and Leonardo DiCaprio in "Titanic" and "Jurassic Park".

Sam Neill in Spider-Man, and Cao Yu in Spider-Man.

Although Cao Yu is not unique in scorpion pulling daddy, it is also very special in the world.

The two of them settled the signing matter while talking.

The day after Cao Yu and Michael Ovitz reached an agreement, Michael Ovitz equipped Cao Yu with a whole team, including three ace managers, makeup artists, stylists, assistants, and bodyguards.

In short, Cao Yu has everything that other stars should and can have.

Cao Yu also signed the contract of this agency in a timely manner, because not long after the celebration party, Sangfuni Padchi could not sit still, and directly asked the relevant personnel of Sony Colombia to prepare for [Spider-Man 2] to talk to Cao Yu

Things of cooperation.

If Cao Yu had not signed CAA, a large and well-organized team, it is estimated that Cao Yu would not have had any upper hand in this negotiation with Sony Columbia and would not have gained much benefit.

After all, Cao Yu is an actor by profession, not a negotiator.

But after having this team, Cao Yu left all this to them with confidence and asked them to talk to people from Sony Colombia.

If the negotiation is good, then of course it is best.

If the talks don't go well, it won't hurt the relationship between him and Sony Colombia.

The final result was very gratifying. Cao Yu’s management team and Sony Columbia’s [Spider-Man] preparation team negotiated a reasonable cooperation.

Cao Yu's salary for starring in "Spider-Man 2" will suddenly rise from the previous million level to the tens of millions level, reaching an incredible level of 12 million US dollars.

Cao Yu's salary increase is very scary and fast.

However, with such benefits, the work of others is not in vain. Cao Yu has to pay millions of dollars in fixed expenses for this team every year.

Nowadays, Cao Yu can be called a quasi-superstar in Hollywood, both in terms of fame and remuneration, and he is a quasi-superstar who is very close to a superstar.

This is why Cao Yu's foundation is too weak at present. If it were his eldest brother Cheng Long or Kung Fu Emperor Liaison Li, these two would have produced a work with the level of "Spider-Man".

It is easy to break through the barrier between quasi-stars and superstars and become a Hollywood superstar. Even Hollywood superstars can be easily achieved.

…

"Jerry, you can actually speak Chinese. Why did you want to learn it in the first place?"

Sitting on the plane, Cao Yu asked him, the assistant sent by CAA.

The destination of the plane he was taking now was the country of China. The ten-hour flight time left Cao Yu idle and bored, and all he could do was chat with the people around him.

"Because China has 1.4 billion people and is a huge market, so I learned it."

The person Cao Yu calls Jerry is a European and American man wearing a suit, brown hair, and glasses as thick as the bottom of a glass bottle.

He exudes the temperament of a real European and American elite, a real European and American elite temperament. He is not the Charles who wore the skin of a European and American elite like the last time Cao Yu met at RB, but underneath was a wretched uncle who was busy chasing idols all day long.

At this time, Jerry just replied to Cao Yu lightly, and then continued to look through the documents in his hand without even turning his head, "Also, I want to remind you that I am now getting to know you where you will be in the next few days.

This work is very important for China, Japan and South Korea, so please don’t disturb me.”

"Uh~"

Facing the attitude of his assistant Jerry, Cao Yu felt like he was being slapped in the face, but he couldn't refute the other person directly. After all, the other person's job was to be an assistant who reasonably arranged his itinerary. He was wrong at all.

No.

Since you can't chat, I'll find another one.

Cao Yu thought this, and then looked away from Jerry beside him to other places.

Don't worry about the three ace agents. They are even busier than Jerry. Even on the plane, they all occupy the three corners of the VIP box of the plane without disturbing each other.

Each of them holds a satellite phone that can make calls on the plane. They have not stopped since they got on the plane, and they are busier than the operator in Ta Miao.

So...eliminate.

There was no need to think about the four bodyguards. They didn't even take off their sunglasses on the plane. They were guarding the two entrances and exits of the box in pairs. Their temperaments were as cold as ice. They were obviously not the type to chat.

That leaves stylists and makeup artists.

These two people seem to be capable of chatting, and they are chatting now.

It's just that although these two are both men, and each has the temperament of an elite in their respective fields, they both have the same characteristic, which is a lack of masculinity.

The two of them were chatting together, just like two beautiful best friends getting together, chattering together, giving people a feeling of being both offensive and passive.

When the two of them saw Cao Yu's gaze, the makeup artist opened his mouth and said, "Cao, do you want to talk to us about the latest trends?"

Cao Yu quickly shook his head to express his refusal.

When I talk to you, I always have the illusion that my butt will hurt in the future.
