Would this work?

Would this build drain and return?  I've seen similar setups the floor below the display, but not one where the water travels much distance horizontally.  I neglected to label it, but in this proposal, its 15-20 foot distance on the horizontal run.  Let me know your thoughts, Thanks!

all you need is 1/8" per foot of fall horizontal for drain to work.

In other words to travel 8' horizontal, the intake of the drain needs to be 1" above the drain output?  Thanks for your advice!
