## Prompt

```text
A refined vertical poster in contemporary Chinese ink-wash aesthetics, designed like a cultural city branding cover for {headline_text}. Use a soft warm ivory paper background with large areas of negative space, delicate gray watercolor clouds, mist, and sweeping semi-abstract brushstroke arcs edged with muted metallic gold. The composition blends traditional Jiangnan-style ink painting with a modern skyline: on the right-center, depict the Guangzhou skyline emerging from haze across calm water, with the Canton Tower as the dominant tallest structure, slender and highly detailed, surrounded by several modern skyscrapers in pale gray-beige tones. In the lower left over the water, place 1 small traditional covered wooden boat with 1 standing boatman wearing a conical hat, rendered in dark ink silhouette with a subtle reflection. On the lower right foreground, include 1 flowering plum branch extending diagonally inward, with dark twisting bark and small vivid red blossoms. In the open upper-middle sky, add exactly 4 tiny flying birds. Keep the water smooth, reflective, and misty, with the city fading softly into the atmosphere. Along the left side, create elegant vertical typography in a minimalist poster layout: the large main Chinese title {headline_text}, a small red seal-style label reading {region_tag}, two slim vertical text columns reading "千年商都" and "烟火与潮涌共生", a thin divider line, and small English text "GUANGZHOU" and "CANTON" beneath. Add 2 small seal marks in red near the lower-left text area and 1 tiny minimalist mountain line icon. At the very bottom center, place a faint small Chinese sentence {bottom_quote}. Overall mood: serene, elegant, poetic, high-end editorial poster, balanced asymmetry, light haze, restrained palette of ivory, charcoal gray, warm beige, black ink, cinnabar red, and brushed gold accents.
