Chapter 471: Wealthy: The Wang Family

Wang Zifan did not pay much attention to this trip to the British mainland to accept the canonization of the Queen of England, because this was originally a transaction, the queen canonized the title of Hong Kong people in order to consolidate her control over Hong Kong, and Wang Zifan accepted the canonization in order to improve his social status.

In the era of British colonization of Hong Kong, in order to win the hearts of the people, the British royal family awarded some honorary titles to Hong Kong Chinese, but only a handful of Hong Kongers could become knights.

With the title and the current family property, the prince is a real wealthy family in Hong Kong, and he is no longer a nouveau riche who came from smuggling!

For example, Shaw is known as Sir Shaw!

This is because in 1977, Evaoff was knighted by the Queen ****** the Lower Ranks, and since then he has become Sir in the official title of Hong Kong, which is also an honor for Hong Kong people in the old era.

Speaking of the British title system, Wang Zifan also did some research before coming!

Britain still retains a knighthood system, and those who hold titles are divided into two categories, some royal and noble titles are hereditary, and commoners can be canonized to receive meritorious titles.

To put it simply, the best knighthood is given to the British royal family's own people, such as the title of Carter, which is the oldest knighthood in the world, the highest level of the British honor system, and only a very few people can receive this medal, including the British monarch and up to 24 living members, it is worth mentioning that this title is directly decided by the Queen of England, without the recommendation or nomination of the British Prime Minister!

The second-class knighthood is used to recognize people who have made outstanding contributions to science, art, charity, public service, etc., which is also divided into five ranks, and Wang Zifan does not need to deliberately inquire which level of medal he will be awarded, because according to the British urine nature, it is either fourth or fifth, anyway, it will not give too high honors, and Shaw is only a junior knight.

The day after leaving Hong Kong, Wang Zifan stayed in a five-star hotel in London, which is the closest luxury hotel to Buckingham Palace.

Oh yes, and a dusty woman!

Temperamentally, this is definitely a woman who sells meat!

Wang Zifan didn't know what the Queen of England was crazy about, and she actually awarded a medal to a prostitute, which was simply unappetizing, he was not interested in this knight, but now he is even more tired, there are many people who award knights and medals, and any cat and dog are qualified.

Damn British!

Wang Zifan went back to the room to cover his head and sleep, if it weren't for the fact that this medal was still a little useful for him to bluff those upper-class bigwigs, he really wanted to throw his ass and leave.

Sleep until dawn.

The award soon began!

Although there are many acquaintances here, including the Queen of England, the prince's husband, and their two sons, Wang Zifan only chatted with the prince's husband for a few words, after all, everyone still wants to cooperate in business, and Wang Zifan also wants to use this relationship to block Li Jiacheng in the future.

In front of him, a person who looked like a dog was hung up by the Queen of England, and then cooperated with reporters to take a few photos, this is the routine of awarding the medal.

But don't think that being knighted is a nobleman!

Being knighted does not necessarily mean being a nobleman.

In the United Kingdom, the nobility can be roughly divided into three categories: hereditary nobility, lifelong nobility, and commoner aristocracy.

On the aristocratic pyramid, located at the top of the tower, of course, is the royal family, and below the members of the royal family are the traditional hereditary nobles "duke, marquis, earl, son, male" five-level titles.

In this day and age, it is rare for the British king to canonize new hereditary nobility.

So most of them were awarded commoner nobility.

And 99% of the real high-ranking nobles rely on inheritance.

For example, the elder brother of Diana, the prince and his lover, the Earl of Spencer, is the ninth generation of his family's title, and when his father dies, he is eligible to inherit his father's title and become the new Earl of Spencer, and before that, he was titled Viscount Althorp.

When the eldest brother inherited the earldom, the title was given to his son Louis.

Therefore, the traditional hereditary titles of nobility left in Britain are passed down from generation to generation.

"It's your turn, king!"

“ok!”

Wang Zifan learned from the appearance of those people just now, walked in front of the Queen of England seriously, and then held his head high and let the Queen of England hang a medal on his chest, and then cooperated to say a few words on the scene, of course, they were all allegiance and the like, in the previous award ceremony, it was the monarch who took a sword and patted twice on the shoulder of a kneeling subordinate, and then this subordinate became a knight!

Fortunately, I didn't have to kneel, otherwise this stain would not be washed off by jumping into the Yellow River, and Wang Zifan would rather not have this title!

Once you've got your medal, the next step is a celebratory dinner.

Wang Zifan didn't have much interest in this, a group of people all spoke English, and they didn't know what the other party was talking about, plus a few British guys didn't like him as a Chinese, and they always pointed and pointed without the slightest aristocratic temperament, originally Wang Zifan also wanted to 'talk a few words' with Diana at the banquet, but after inquiring, he learned that Diana was grounded by the family after returning to the UK, and rarely showed up outside.

There is nothing Wang Zifan can do about this, he can't climb the wall to steal his lover out, that's too appalling, just take the other person's medal and do this, isn't this a slap in the face, and finally find a way to send a few letters to Diana, wait until the situation calms down, let the lover come to Hong Kong, and from then on the end is here, I believe that this earl family is not willing to create a new family scandal.

After the award, Wang Zifan stayed in London for a few days to inspect the Wang family's property here!

This Wang family was created by Wang Zifan himself, from there to nothing, he is currently the only member, his girlfriends and lovers have no formal marriage ceremony, and in the eyes of outsiders, they are not even half of the wealthy members, and even many people are waiting to see the jokes and guess who was the first to be abandoned by the wealthy family.

It wasn't until June 15 that Wang Zifan flew back to Hong Kong!

In addition to some local newspapers and periodicals, there are also a large number of Southeast Asian reporters, all waiting to interview the head of the new wealthy family, and even the reporter of "Ming Pao" recorded the history of Wang Zifan's struggle in detail, and planned to write a serial story of the wealthy family, in order to shoot the future new boss's sycophants!

You must know that Wang Zifan's acquisition of "Ming Pao" is already an open secret in the media circle, and no one doubts this acquisition case, because Wang Zifan's power is too strong, rich and powerful, and he was canonized as a knight by the Queen of England, he wants to buy "Ming Pao", who can stop it!
