FLASHBACK
INT. RESTAURANT - DAY
A GROUP is having dim sums at a round table. A LADY (60s) sits next to Peter.
LADY
I've just liked our song "A
Winter's Day published on
Facebook.
Peter smiles.
LADY (Cont'd)
Melody aside, I love your
visual editing in the music
video.
Peter appreciates it.
PETER
Thank you very much for your
encouragement.
A PROFESSOR (60s) arrives and sits next to the lady. A CONDUCTOR (64) speaks to him.
CONDUCTOR
Have you brought along with
your 10th Symphony?
PROFESSOR
(Shaking his head side ways)
It should be ready in about a
year from now.
PROFESSOR (Cont'd)
(Turning to Peter)
I've got your song... Why is it so
short?
PETER
I've to make it short to ensure
it's easily transmitted over the
Internet.
PROFESSOR
Have you become a member
of the Composers & Authors
Association of Hongkong?
PETER
(Shaking his head sideways)
I don't even know how to
transpose my songs into
sheet music...
PROFESSOR
That might not be required.
Have you publicly performed
your songs?
PETER
I've made them available over
the Internet. Anyway, I'll check
it out.
END FLASHBACK
Peter exits.
INT. STUDY - DAY
Sitting behind a computer and surrounded by guitar cases and music gears , Peter checks an incoming email.
PETER (V.O.)
The conductor was prompt
in replying.
We see the last line of an email: "Keep composing and stop decomposing..."
PETER (V.O.)
(Hand in cheek)
What an encouragement to me
from a first grade music graduate
and orchestra conductor!
Peter replies. We see:"I'll heed it in my heart." Peter looks proud.
