Thank you for clarifying the picture.
Can you do me a favor and tell me which one shall I use in formal business letter?
I always make mistake between future progressive and simple future. I have weird feeling when I see will + be + verb+ing

I appreciate your assistance.

Unless they are informal I still make a lot of mistake when I put be + verb+ing to the future sentence.
Could you give me a short explanation please?

Use a dynamic verb. The action must occur over an interval of time. Usually, it is an action planned in advance.

Harold will be playing the piano in next Sunday's concert.
The team will be flying to New York to play in the championship.
May and Sam will be driving to visit Sam's mother for the Easter holiday.
