We’re launching an exclusive AIGC Creation Hackathon focused on exploring and interpreting the unique charm of Guangzhou through the power of artificial intelligence.

This open innovation event invites creators, developers, entrepreneurs and AI enthusiasts of all backgrounds to leverage AIGC technology, dig into the city’s culture, heritage, vitality and urban evolution, and craft exclusive, diverse stories that define your vision of Guangzhou.

Gather with like-minded innovators in the local creative landmark of Taikoo Warehouse, brainstorm creative AI solutions, turn your imaginative perspectives of Guangzhou into innovative AIGC works, and join a new wave of urban content creation powered by AI.

All innovators & storytellers are welcome to join and redefine Guangzhou’s story with AIGC creativity.

The Prompt: Tell your "Cantonese Story"
🦁 Dim Sum | 🏮 Qilou | 🛶 Dragon Boats | 🎭 Cantonese Opera
Use Ji Meng (Dreamina) to create a 1-minute AIGC short film. We’re looking for soul, expression, and that unique Guangfu flavor.

It’s not a competition. It’s a connection.
Forget the pressure. This is about meeting fellow makers,碰撞灵感 (colliding ideas), and leaving with a piece of art (and new friends).

Here’s how it flows:

  1. Form a Team: 5 people per team. (Already have a squad? Register together!)

  2. Create: 2 hours to make magic happen using Ji Meng.

  3. Screen & Vote: Watch the films, vote for your favorites, and see the top 8 pitch their ideas.

  4. Win: Prizes and glory for the Top 3, judged by industry experts.

Perks for You:
30,000 Free Tokens per team (provided by Dreamina).
Expert Judges: Including directors and visual artists from the AIGC frontier.
Vibe: Professional audio-visual setup in a legendary Livehouse.
