Xiao Yao didn't feel unhappy that Gao Jianming often improvised when playing against him, but rather excited.

In a film and television work, the actors, especially the leading actors, also belong to the creators, so they naturally have room for creation and development. Gao Jianming's improvisation can be said to be the actor's on-the-spot improvisation, so the reaction of the people acting with him is also the on-site improvisation.

Whether it's an improvisation during filming, or an actor revising the script during filming, it's an actor's re-creation. Xiao Yao once talked about his attitude towards actors changing scripts without permission when chatting with Zhao Rui, Zhu Zitong and others. But the point of Xiao Yao’s statement that time was not that actors could not change the script, but that they could not change the roles of the characters at will. Teased beyond recognition. That kind of situation is unacceptable to Xiao Yao.

Before the crew started the film, Xiao Yao also discussed this issue with director Chen Jun and reached an agreement on this point. So in this crew, there is a prerequisite for the director to allow the actors to improvise during filming, that is, what the actors perform can be different from the original script, but it must conform to the character setting of the character, and it must be a reasonable performance in the scene, and at the same time It cannot affect the development of the subsequent plot.

Gao Jianming is an experienced veteran actor, not the kind of traffic actor who pursues exposure in scenes, and he also plays a supporting role in this drama. He played on the spot during filming, it was purely out of interest, and he didn't want to change and increase his role in the scene, so he improvised during filming, most of which were accepted and adopted by the director.

Do not change the development of the subsequent plot, do not change the number of roles of the characters, and do not follow the script, just improvise in a certain scene or scene, which requires that the improvisation part of the character must satisfy the character of the character The setting must conform to the situation at the time, and it must not affect the subsequent development of the plot. In fact, it is quite difficult. At the very least, actors are required to thoroughly study the entire script and the characters they play.

Gao Jianming dared to improvise during the filming. Naturally, he had a thorough understanding of the script. The content of the improvisation was in line with the character settings of the characters he played, as well as the plot and the scene at the time. And Xiao Yao wrote the script outline of the play himself, participated in the writing of the script, and has a very thorough understanding of the overall plot and the role he will play. After being mentally prepared that Gao Jianming might improvise, Xiao Yao's on-the-spot reaction was also quite good.

In the crew, Gao Jianming is not the only one who likes to improvise. Under the influence of Gao Jianming, other actors, such as Yin, also played a temporary role in a scene with Xiao Yao. But generally speaking, Gao Jianming played the most improvisations.

Xiao Yao also improvises, but he will not take the initiative to improvise away from the script. Whether it is Gao Jianming or Yin, he always goes to pick up the opponent's scene. If the other party didn't follow the script, he naturally couldn't respond according to the script. Because it didn't follow the script, it was naturally considered improvisation.

Although Xiao Yao never takes the initiative to improvise when shooting, it does not mean that Xiao Yao will always be a passive party when shooting.

To put it simply, an actor improvised and made a performance that was reasonable in the scene but not described in the script. As an actor in the opposite role, he naturally had to break away from the script and react reasonably according to the improvisation of the other party. However, this reasonable response is not the only one.

Sometimes, Xiao Yao will give a reasonable response that is also in line with the role setting and the scene when facing the opponent's improvisation, but this reaction also exceeds the expectations of many people, including the opponent actor. In this way, it is tantamount to kicking the ball to the opponent, asking the opponent to respond temporarily to pick up his play.

Yin just tried to improvise under the influence of Gao Jianming, and most of them followed the script and the director's requirements. Gao Jianming was the one who improvised the most times in the whole crew,

Most of Xiao Yao's ingenious reaction to improvisation was given to Gao Jianming.

When acting, an actor hopes to meet an equal opponent. In this way, the two parties will stimulate and stimulate each other, and the performance will be more enjoyable and perform better. It is reflected in the eyes of the audience and even bystanders, which is the so-called feeling of watching "Balloon".

The rivalry scene between Gao Jianming and Xiao Yao gave the crew a feeling that the two were "playing wildly". Moreover, the "big drama" of these two people is not quite the same as the general "big drama". While appreciating the acting skills of the two, the crew members can often see various improvisations and on-the-spot reactions of the two when they put aside the script but conform to the setting of the characters and the direction of the plot.

Gao Jianming's improvisation was basically sudden during filming, and he didn't discuss with the director in advance to revise the script. In addition to the acting skills of Xiao Yao and Gao Jianming, another aspect is to improvise and react on the spot. There is no need and no way to prepare in advance. Therefore, although Xiao Yao and Gao Jianming had a great time playing together, it did not affect Xiao Yao's time off the set.

Yin no longer forced Xiao Yao to go to the set with her regardless of whether Xiao Yao had a scene to shoot. When there was no shooting task, Xiao Yao still devoted his time to composing the ost song of the series.

Within two weeks after the crew came back from their first vacation, Xiao Yao sent the lyrics and music scores of the two ost songs to Liang Xueying and Lian Yiling respectively.

The songs Xiao Yao gave to the two were "Finally Waiting for You" by Jane Zhang in her previous life and "At Least You" by Lin Yilian. These two songs are one of the representative works of two well-known singers in the previous life. Apart from the popularity of singing, the quality of the songs must be nothing to say.

The two female singers were naturally very satisfied after receiving Xiao Yao's lyrics and score. If both of them hadn't read the script of this drama, and felt that the lyrics of these two songs matched the plot of this drama, and they were indeed very suitable for the ost song of the drama, both of them wanted to buy the copyright as their own The new single was released directly.

Theoretically speaking, it is enough to record the ost songs of the series during the post-production period, but Xiao Yao asked to record in advance, and neither of them refused.

After getting replies from the two female singers agreeing to sing the two songs, Xiao Yao quickly prepared the arrangement and accompaniment of the two songs, and sent them to them again. Since both of them are experienced professional singers, Xiao Yao will not record demos and the like.

The accompaniment audio files sent to the two singers through the Internet were also produced by Xiao Yao with music software on the computer, the purpose is only to let the two be familiar with the arrangement and soundtrack of the song. When it was time for the official recording, Xiao Yao re-recorded the accompaniment with real musical instruments.

Taking advantage of the next two opportunities when he didn't have to film for more than half a day, Xiao Yao went to the recording studio to prepare a formal accompaniment, and taking advantage of the next two opportunities when the crew was on vacation, Xiao Yao invited Liang Xueying and Lian Yiling to the recording studio. Completed the recording of the official version of the song.

When Xiao Yao recorded songs for Yin, Yin went to the recording studio twice, with several days in between. Both Liang Xueying and Lian Yiling are experienced professional singers, and they got the lyrics, score and accompaniment of the song long in advance, so it only took Xiao Yao a day to record these two, and it was done in one go.

However, the production crew will only take a vacation every once in a while. As the actor who plays the male lead, Xiao Yao doesn't have many opportunities to not be filming for more than half a day. During this period, Xiao Yao would occasionally go to Sun Tingting's show when he was free, to visit the class or something. After Xiao Yao finished recording these two songs, Sun Tingting's program had already been recorded, and the crew's filming was about to come to an end.

Although Xiao Yao is one of the producers and producers of this TV drama project and has a lot of power, it doesn't mean that no one dares to make demands on Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao is a musician who has written three OST songs for the series, and has brought in two star singer-songwriters to compose OST songs for the series. The director and Yin will naturally ask Xiao Yao to participate in the soundtrack during post-production work.

In this drama project, Xiao Yao already has a lot of identities, and he didn't plan to participate in the post-production of the TV drama. Later, he had a plan to go to the United States after the drama was finished, and he didn't want to stay in China to participate in the post-production of the TV drama. . But since directors Chen Jun and Yin asked together, Xiao Yao did not completely refuse.

Xiao Yao does not plan to participate in the post-production of this TV series, and of course he does not plan to be the soundtrack composer of this TV series. However, he did not refuse to help the soundtrack composer of this TV series as much as possible.

The job of the soundtrack engineer is to make music for the required video images. The soundtrack can be specially composed music for film and television works, but it does not necessarily have to be music specially created for the work. It is also possible to choose other existing music.

In film and television works, music is a very important part. This music is not just ost songs, but also a lot of pure music. Most of the soundtrack composers who won awards such as the best soundtrack are not because of the songs in the works, but more because of pure music.

Xiao Yao wrote three OST songs for this TV series, and also invited two celebrity singer-songwriters to write OST songs for the TV series. After all, he has contributed five OST songs to this TV series. But in terms of pure music, this series has not yet settled down. Later, the crew entered the final stage of filming. When Xiao Yao was not filming, he stayed in the hotel room and wrote pure music for this TV series.

The soundtrack is the work of post-production. Now that the crew has not completed the filming work, can Xiao Yao write the soundtrack? Of course I can write. Xiao Yao is the producer and producer of this show, and he can see the video materials that the crew has shot before. Looking at those materials, Xiao Yao can write.

Xiao Yao is not a soundtrack engineer, how can he ensure that his music will be selected and used by the soundtrack engineer during post-production? Even further, he is not a soundtrack engineer, how can he guarantee that the three songs he recorded before and the songs written by two other male singers will be selected by the soundtrack engineer as the ost song of this show? Or because Xiao Yao is the producer and producer of this show.

The three songs written by Xiao Yao were all heard by director Chen Jun, and the two also determined that these three songs would be suitable places to appear as episodes of TV dramas. Later, when Xiao Yao wrote pure music, he also wrote it based on the material he had shot before. Naturally, he also chose a suitable plot. After writing it, he would show it to director Chen Jun.

When the soundtrack composer performs soundtrack work in the post-production period, he needs to listen to the director or producer's opinion and discuss with the director or producer. If there is a conflict of opinion between the soundtrack artist and the director or producer regarding the soundtrack, the first thing to do is to try to convince the other party. If you really can’t convince the other party, the director or producer will make the final decision. Here, as professional musicians, producers and senior directors, it is unlikely that the soundtrack artist will raise objections.

Xiao Yao not only composed the music for this drama, but also found the place where the music would appear. In a sense, Xiao Yao has actually completed part of the work of a soundtrack artist. However, a TV series does not necessarily only use three songs, and the number of pure music is even more uncertain, so Xiao Yao only completed part of the work. In the later stage, the crew had to find another soundtrack artist.

In addition, Rong Jun and Ling Chengjie's OST songs have not been written yet. However, the fame and strength of the two are not a problem, and they have composed ost songs for other film and television works before, and Xiao Yao has great confidence in them. Whether their songs meet the plot requirements of the TV series will be left to the director Chen Jun and the soundtrack artist to judge.

Of course Xiao Yao would not tell director Chen Jun that he was going to an American casino, but he told Chen Jun and Yin that he would go abroad after the filming of the film and could not participate in the post-production of the show. Chen Jun naturally had nothing to say. Yin saw that Xiao Yao not only wrote a song for himself, but also wrote a few pieces of pure music for this TV series, and he didn't force it in the end.

In the crew, not all actors have the same shooting time. Because of the different roles, some actors with few roles will "finish" ahead of time. Xiao Yao, as the male lead of this show, of course, won't finish it early. In fact, Xiao Yao had a role in the last scene of the last day of filming, and he stayed with the entire crew until the last moment.

On the night of the filming crew's finale, the production company arranged a finale banquet. Because they knew the date of the production team's finale in advance, the producer also contacted all the actors who had completed their production in advance and left the group on the same day, inviting them to come back as much as possible to participate in the production team's finale banquet.

Due to schedule or work, not all actors came back to participate in the wrap-up banquet. However, on such an occasion, basically everyone who can come will come, so there are quite a few people in this wrap-up banquet.

The atmosphere at the finale banquet was very lively. Xiao Yao, who has multiple identities, is one of the well-deserved protagonists of the crew, and is naturally one of the main targets for everyone to drink. Although he tried his best not to get drunk, Xiao Yao also drank a lot at this wrap-up banquet.

The filming time of this drama is estimated to be about three months. The estimated number of episodes of this drama is about 30 episodes. Without group shooting, it is considered a very good efficiency to finish shooting in three months. The filming efficiency of the crew was good, and it was even finished a few days earlier than the original plan, but overall, the filming time of the crew still exceeded three months.

Although the filming experience this time is a little easier than the previous few times, but after all, it was a three-month filming in the group, and I drank a lot at the finale dinner the night before. So after finalizing and leaving the group, Xiao Yao did not set off immediately, but rested at the residence for two days before leaving for Boston, USA.

Before going to Vegas, Xiao Yao had to go to MIT to find the card counting group where Yan Ke and the others belonged to learn the mathematical model of card counting, practice card counting techniques, and accept their assessment. Cambridge, where the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is located, is located in the Boston metropolitan area, so the destination of Xiao Yao's flight to the United States this time is not New York or Los Angeles, but Boston, which he has never been to before.
