Canvas: 1:1 square image, precisely divided into four equal panels with thin white gaps between them. Photorealistic, high resolution, cinematic lighting, and a realistic Japanese city bank environment. Ensure consistency in the protagonist's clothing, hairstyle, watch, and brown leather shoulder bag across all panels. To protect anonymity, the protagonist's face should be deliberately obscured with soft rectangular blur/mosaic blocks in each panel. Protagonist: A young Japanese office worker.{argument name="character description" default="Disheveled black hair, navy blue suit, white shirt, loose navy blue tie, brown leather shoes, silver watch, brown leather shoulder bag."} He looked exhausted, panicked, and emotionally distraught. Panel Quantity and Content: A precise four panels are used. 1. Top Left Panel: Inside or next to a bank ATM. The ATM screen displays a large red "0" clearly against a light blue background, indicating a zero balance. The office worker stands close to the ATM, shoulders tense, looking dejected, a brown leather bag strap slung across his shoulder. 2. Top Right Panel: At the bank counter. The office worker leans forward, facing a female bank employee in a navy blue uniform, hands outstretched, gesturing desperately. The bank interior is clean and modern, with blue counters, glass partitions, small signs, and warm office lighting. 3. Bottom Left Panel: Outside the bank entrance. A blue sign above the door reads {argument name="bank sign text" default="BANK"} An office worker stands on the sidewalk in front of the bank, arms flailing in panic, tie loose, coat open, brown shoulder bag hanging at his side. Bright sunlight, details of the city street, bollards, paving stones, and greenery. 4. Bottom right panel: In a quiet park. An office worker slumps on a wooden bench, head down, arms hanging limply, looking dejected. His brown leather bag lies on the bench beside him. Includes trees, dappled sunlight, green bushes, and a tranquil background that contrasts sharply with his despair. Visual style: Photorealistic Japanese commercial drama stills, consistent character portrayal, natural depth of field, clear clothing details, realistic bank and park scenes, vivid yet believable colors, emotional storytelling. No cartoon style, no additional panels, and no text descriptions except for the "0" on the ATM screen and the bank's exterior sign.
