Hello and welcome! Thanks for coming by today. So, I have an idea for a movie that will be unlike anything you have ever heard of, thought of, or have seen. One of the best things about this pitch you’re going to hear is that it is for an animated film project, which allows us to save some costs and yet be even more adventurous. I got the idea from a Chinese graphic novel and I have lined up Chinese investors to bring the idea to the screen. So, like, are you ready? Sweet...take a seat.
We open in Tibet at a remote location known as Snow Mountain. There are flocks of sheep who roam the countryside and are protected by a team of Tibetan Mastiff dogs. Worried about the potential for enemy attack, they form a bond and the species co-exist in harmony.

However, Lhasa is not exactly modern, so maybe Lhasa in Snow Mountain? And then, are they in Beijing? And why is Angus living in a palatial Paisley Park-style mansion in Beijing? And why does he record his music on cassette tapes and mail them to his label via UPS.
Also, is it 6pm Beijing time his song needs to be there? Or 6pm the time of wherever his label is located? Why are giant 1990s-era cellular phones used and furthermore, why do some people pull them out of pockets like
