Chapter 551: Rejection of the Queen of England
On January 21, 2001, the British National Book Award announced that the Chinese-American writer "King Lee" became the "2000 British Author of the Year", and "The Da Vinci Code" and "The Twilight Zone" won the Book of the Year Award together with the same number of votes.
The British National Book Award is the most popular literary award in the United Kingdom, and can be called the Oscar in the literary world in the United Kingdom.
This is the first time that two novels of Fei Teng Lee have won a super award in the world, and in addition to the shock and surprise of readers around the world, Queen Elizabeth II issued an invitation letter in the "Times", very modestly inviting Fei Teng Li to go to the United Kingdom to receive the "Order of the Commander of the Knighthood" KBE's Honorary Sirling Medal of Noble.
The Order of Merit of the British Empire is a type of knighthood in the British Honours and Commendation System, established by King George V on June 4, 1917. There are a total of five ranks, and Li Feiteng's knighthood commander medal is the second rank.
Globally, there are only five non-British citizens who can receive the Order of the British KBE, and all of them are from Hong Kong.
It's just that after Li Feiteng received the invitation, he immediately published a very untactful blog on the blog network refusing to accept the junior knight medal of honor.
"I, Li Feiteng, am a literary creator who remembers the history of various nations and advocates the freedom and equality of all people, and in my memory, the empire on which the sun never sets has brought tragic harm to many countries and nations around the world.
What I hate the most in my life is the aristocratic class, and the magnesium country is a united democratic country sworn to resist British colonialism, and since I joined the magnesium country, it represents my personal position and life pursuit.
I am very grateful to the readers in the UK for their love for me. I am also very grateful to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II for her love to me. It's a pity I'm not a British citizen. Nor is he a class worshipper who covets fame and honor, so I reject the so-called British noble Medal of Honor, which is like a cage for a man who admires freedom, imprisoning a soul and mind. ”
When this 100-word blog came out, the world was shocked. In British high society, there has been a frenzy of public opinion banning Li Feiteng's novels.
The Chinese People's Daily and the news network quickly reported the shocking news that Li Feiteng refused to be awarded the Medal of Honor by the Queen of England, and Li Feiteng's blog hit 15 million hits in one day.
On the same day, the number of newly registered users increased by 1.8 million, and the number of people who opened blogs exceeded 15 million overnight!
Celebrities from all walks of life in China have opened blogs. to support and comment on Philip Lee.
Including the current Premier Zhu of China and senior officials from various provinces, they have all opened celebrity blogs. For a time, this phenomenon was evaluated by sociologists as "Li Feiteng's celebrity Internet benefit".
As the richest man in China at the age of 23, every word he says to the outside world will have a huge impact, but such a direct reply to reject the Queen of England is tantamount to challenging and criticizing a country's high society.
In fact, many British artists also reject the Medal of Honor, but as a foreigner, Li Feiteng is still the first writer and top rich man in the world to reject the British Medal of Honor.
The message expressed in his blog is very direct, that is, he doesn't like the UK.
In the past two days, Li Feiteng stayed at home and didn't dare to go out, because the media from all over the world gathered in Yanjing and rushed to interview him.
Public opinion in China and the country is on the side of Li Feiteng, and the new president of the country Bush also commented on Li Feiteng with a public smile at a press conference: "King Li is my favorite novelist at present, he has the true spirit of the country of magnesium, if I have the opportunity, I must have dinner with him, oh, I should invite him and his wife together." ”
At the end of a blog post on the development of Huaxia medical charity, Premier Zhu of Huaxia published a blog on the certified celebrity blog, commenting on Li Feiteng: "Li Feiteng is an honest and outstanding entrepreneur, he leads the Internet industry in China step by step, and from him, I see the hope of the rise of the country and the nation in the younger generation." ”
On the eve of the New Year in 2001, Li Feiteng's blog made it difficult for the world to calm down, almost every Chinese person, with a smile on his face, the country's more than one billion people, the common people are in this year, know who Li Feiteng is and what he has done.
Li Feiteng's influence reached an unprecedented peak in this Lunar New Year, and his literary works were bought in thousands of empty alleys during the New Year.
In all major Xinhua bookstores across the country, there was a large number of queues to buy Li Feiteng's genuine books, and the streets and alleys were all talking about Li Feiteng.
Discuss how this young man, who is only 23 years old, has achieved such great achievements and how he has won the high praise and comments of many heads of state.
The "Feiteng Technology" gem stock listed on the Hong Kong stock market soared from HK$12 to HK$68 within a week of Li Feiteng's blog, and it was not until the end of January that Feiteng Group urgently issued 50 million new shares to curb the skyrocketing trend.
Even so, on the day of the issuance of 50 million new shares, Feiteng technology stocks still went all the way to a skyrocketing trend, and on the same day, it broke through the peak of 30 Hong Kong dollars.
Feiteng Technology currently has a total share capital of 100 million, with 68 million shares circulating in Hong Kong stocks, worth as much as HK $2.04 billion, accounting for 68% of the share capital.
When Li Feiteng issued new shares this time, he reduced his holdings by 10% and made a wild profit of 300 million Hong Kong dollars, and his shares are currently only 38%, but he is still the largest individual shareholder of Feiteng Group.
Feiteng Technology Group, which was listed, has a total market value of 3 billion Hong Kong dollars, becoming the highest stock on the Growth Enterprise Market and an unprecedented dark horse.
It has driven the overall rise of the GEM, and many shareholders in Xiangjiang have made a lot of money in this bull market.
In this incident, the stock also increased significantly, from the $7 stock price to the $12 mark, but Li Feiteng has always held a large number of stocks, and he immediately sold a lot of them, and after earning $20 million, the stock price was lowered to about $8.
However, when Li Feiteng made a lot of money in the stock market, the British upper class finally put Li Feiteng's works on the blacklist, except for the current best-selling books of Li Feiteng in the UK, any new works of his in the next 20 years are not allowed to be published and sold in the UK.
In this regard, Li Feiteng smiled indifferently, he will not create any more literary works, this time he single-handedly directed the incident, so that he earned nearly 400 million yuan in the stock market, and in Huaxia, the sales of his literary works in a month have exceeded 5 million copies, this hot trend, this year will allow him to earn at least 100 million royalties.
