Act 1
EXT. ROAD - 09:00
Waiting in the driver seat of a New Beetle, PETER checks a WhatsApp message.
PETER (V.O.): It's a reminder from the Association's Secretary General about this afternoon's meeting agenda.
Reading.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): As a panelist, I'm going to talk about the challenges and opportunities of the creative industry in the Greater Bay Area (GBA).
Pausing.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd):I won't miss the opportunity to champion IP trading. But would it be too remote for the audience?
Thinking.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): Let me make a little effort to see what ChatGPT would say on the topic.
Typing on screen and getting an answer, Peter studies it.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): There's a big market in three areas: media works, product designs and cultural tourism.
Act 2
INT. STUDIO - 10:00
We hear oldies.
PETER (V.O.): The internet radio narrowcasts many songs of the Beatles each day. The authors of oldies are still receiving good royalties.
Pausing.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): Entertaining others with original works can be rewarding.
Peter takes a look of "The Beatles" products near him
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): With a big "B" and a dropped "T" focusing on "Beat", the typographical design of the logo has eye-appeal.
Pausing.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): Consumers buy aesthetics rather than functionality of products.
Pausing.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): On cultural tourism, I think Hong Kong has good stories to tell too.
Pausing.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): If the creative people in the music and film sectors would act as guides, tourists should be excited and delighted to join.
Opening a pile of letters, Peter checks them.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): Oh, the deadline date for the subscription of rights issue of a company is today!
Pausing.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): Focusing on creating stuff including AI drawings, I haven't opened stock letters from banks for weeks.
MONTAGE OF PETER'S ACTIVITIES
A. Peter gives instructions via a fintech app.
B. Having filled a subscription form, Peter faxes it.
C. After lunch, Peter goes to a swimming pool.
END MONTAGE
EXT. SWIMMING POOL - 14:45
Sunny. Peter is swimming
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): I won't be able to swim tonight.
INT. HEYA, THE ONE - 17:00
On stage, Peter is seated among other PANELISTS.
PETER (V.O.): I haven't spoken as a panelist like this for years.
PANELIST#1 is speaking.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): I think the opportunity should be given to the young and bright.
PANELIST#2 is speaking.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): I'd recognize the market demand of GBA first. Capitalizaton isn't supply-driven.
As Peter speaks, we hear: identify...recognize...capitalize...IP trading...
PETER (V.O.): In closing, I'd call upon Govt to support on the policy front, the Association to set the trend and everybody to be creative.
Later, while chatting with FRIENDS, a bottled soup is served.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): Chatting with old friends is like having soup for the soul.
Act 3
EXT. ROAD - 21:15
Peter walks towards a bus stop.
PETER (V.O.): Making an effort to create something daily is important.
Pausing.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): That's how change occurs. It can be uplifting and transformative.
Pausing.
PETER (V.O.) (Cont'd): Delivering value to all is what keeps me going.
