Reborn Capital Madman

Although Yi Huirong's Xiao Jiacheng was the crown prince of the Gao family, Gao Xian did not plan to hold a high-profile celebration for him such as full moon wine or a hundred-day banquet according to customs, because he was confused in time and space.

People are far more privacy-conscious than people of this era, and are fully aware that security loopholes are formed unknowingly.

To give you a random example, how did Gao Xian's obedient little slave Patricia Hester get targeted by the symbiotic guerrillas? She just kept a high profile unnecessarily and was widely reported by the media in order to gain attention in exchange for sales. In the end

Became prey by accident.

Given that Gao Xian had been kidnapped by symbiotic guerrillas, Yi Huirong also attached great importance to the isolation of family privacy from public view. She had no objection to Gao Xian's decision and did not even accompany her husband to the UK to attend his investiture ceremony.

Gao Xian spent time with his wife and children at his home in Toronto, Canada, and then returned to his busy work. First, he went to the UK to receive the CBE awarded by the British royal family.

Yes, Gao Xian was awarded the CBE, which was not only his own matter, but also related to his Gao family of enterprises, which fell under the category of official business. His confidants rushed to London to witness this historical moment.

You should know that it is not uncommon for Gao Xian to be awarded a CBE among the Chinese community in Hong Kong, but it is definitely rare for Gao Xian to be thirty years old when he was awarded the CBE.

How could everyone not feel honored to follow such a promising boss!

The British Cabinet Office publishes a "New Year's Honors List" and a "Queen's Birthday Honors List" every year, which list the honors received by newly awarded persons.

The "New Year's Honors List" is generally announced around New Year's Day each year, while the "Queen's Birthday Honors List" is announced in early June each year. Gao Xian is on this year's "Queen's Birthday Honors List."

It should be pointed out that the honorees did not receive the honors when these lists were announced, but after the fact.

Due to Gao Xian's status in Hong Kong and his personal relationship with Prince Charles, Gao Xian's CBE investiture ceremony was very prestigious, with Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip making personal appearances.

Seeing that Gao Xian came without his wife and children, Prince Charles couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

Gao Xian explained: "The child is only more than three months old and is not suitable for long-distance travel. Vivian really can't get away from her."

The British royal family accepted this reason without any grudges. Prince Charles said more bluntly, "When you are awarded the honors next time, you can bring your whole family there."

There is no need to elaborate on the red tape involved in conferring honors by the British royal family. Anyway, there is no such thing as kneeling.

Afterwards, Gaoxing Group and Gaoyi Company couldn't wait to update their relevant information, that is, the column of Chairman of the Board of Directors was improved to His Excellency Senator Gao Xian, CBE, JP.

Although it is just a small change, it means a further significant improvement in the brand of Gao's business empire.

So many companies in Hong Kong do not hesitate to hire well-known figures in Hong Kong society as their directors at high salaries in order to gild their brands, but where can having your own boss and a golden signboard be more convincing?

The media in Xiangjiang, of course, caught the news and ran voluntary advertisements and reported it non-stop.

In fact, the profound meaning of this can be clearly seen through the list of Hong Kong celebrities with CBE titles listed by the Hong Kong media. Take Shao Yifu, who won the CBE title last year. How old is the sixth uncle? Because of the Shaw Brothers store

How old is the company?

These uproarious reports are not entirely the fuss that the Hong Kong media has seen. This year's British royal honors are indeed very popular in the news, because the world-famous comedy master Charlie Chaplin is also on the honors list and was awarded

KBE.

Without living in this era, it is difficult to understand the extraordinary meaning of this.

Charlie Chaplin is world-famous for his artistic achievements in comedy films, but his works are just like the ancient Chinese literati's "Writing to convey the Tao", which have profound political implications. For example, the film was released in the United States and joined the second film

Before the First World War, "The Great Dictator" sharply satirized Communism and Adolf Hitler, even though the United States still maintained good relations with Nazi Germany and the panic about Communism had not yet fully erupted.

From a political perspective, Charlie Chaplin was a well-known anti-war figure, and his views always remained on the left. This would cause a lot of trouble in the era when "McCarthyism" was prevalent.

FBI Director Hoover regarded Charlie Chaplin as a thorn in his side and took advantage of Charlie Chaplin's brief visit to his hometown in England in 1952 to cancel his re-entry permit.

Under this circumstance, Charlie Chaplin settled in Vevey, Switzerland, and only obtained a two-month one-time entry visa from the U.S. government in 1972 in order to briefly return to the United States to receive an Oscar Honorary Award.

As we all know, the United Kingdom, which has lost its aura as the "Empire on which the sun never sets", basically wears the same pants as the United States, but it still awarded Charlie Chaplin the second-level KBE of the Order of the British Empire.

In this regard, the media reports are more to attract attention and join in the fun, while Gao Xian, who is very interested, believes that this is an interesting reflection of the current situation in the UK.

In fact, in the 1960s and 1970s, the societies of Western capitalist countries like the United States and the United Kingdom were quite turbulent.

The United States is fighting for civil rights, anti-Vietnam War, anti-mainstream, etc., and the United Kingdom is not stopping, otherwise there will be no room for the Beatles to become popular. In addition, workers in coal mines, railways and other industries are on strike one after another, as well as the Northern Ireland issue.

Wait, that is to say, relying on the strong foundation of the old capitalist countries and relying on inertia, economic development is still generally moving forward.

In British politics during this period, the Labor Party was very powerful, while the Conservative Party only gained power for a few years in the early 1970s.

The current British Prime Minister is Harold Wilson of the Labor Party. This is already his second term. He served as Prime Minister for most of the 1960s and devalued the pound, which was unclear about the Hong Kong dollar.

Events that occurred during this term.

During Harold Wilson's first term, he defied conservative forces and awarded the Beatles medals in order to create a people-friendly image and bring them closer to the younger generation of Britain; now he will award the medals to Charlie Chaplin.

, which is really his consistent style.

At this stage, in addition to the impact of No. 10 Downing Street's "inconsistency" on the pound exchange rate, which deserves Gao Xian's attention, there is also the matter of Britain joining the European Economic Community.

The "old script" that Britain will leave the EU decades later actually has historical origins. Now, even if the UK joins the European Economic Community, there is still clear opposition from conservatives.

Once the UK joins the European Economic Community, once the dust is completely settled, it will have an inevitable impact on the Commonwealth economies, including Hong Kong. Mr. Gao Xian really has the responsibility to study it carefully.
