張寶華,曾任電視新聞記者,因樣貌標緻,被稱為新聞之花、寶娃娃。現為上市公司管理層、電台節目主持人及專欄作家。訪問過許多名人,包括查良鏞(金庸)、江澤民、羅傑承、劉德華、鄭秀文、黎智英、唐英年、梁振英、陳可辛、王維基等。曾為信報、經濟日報、蘋果日報、星島日報、東周刊及明報等多份報章雜誌撰寫專欄, ,亦有多部著述。現時是香港足球總會市務及傳訊委員會成員。

她見證過香港媒體最好的日子,曾經滿世界採訪,跑得比誰都快;後來從媒體圈跨至電影圈,見證不同領域的中港關係變化。16年前,她對江澤民的訪問令她意外成為大陸年輕人心中的“膜蛤教主“,也因此機緣巧合結識了許多90後中國年輕人。她怎樣看香港、香港媒體、中港關係近20年來的變化?她怎樣認識今天中港兩地的年輕人?她印象中的「長者」又是什麼樣?機會難得,不容錯過。

When: 04:00 pm – 05:00 pm, Aug 29 (Mon), 2016
Where: Unit 1907, Prosperity Millennia Plaza, 663 King’s Road, Hong Kong
