Chapter 968 Lifelong Noble

Macmillan was still very satisfied with Bao Zixuan's attitude, and the title was also very satisfying. The principal explained that the other party was talking to you as a student, which proved that he had not forgotten his roots.

The old man has made great contributions to the whole of Britain. The British royal family will not grant him a hereditary noble title just because he married the daughter of a nobleman. Not only does he not have that tradition, but more importantly, he cannot convince the public. Being able to be awarded a knighthood with this old man is an honor in itself.

This kind of honor also shows the important position of Bao Zixuan in the eyes of the British royal family.

Macmillan smiled and said: "I have heard many people mention you before, but I have never had the opportunity to meet you. Being able to meet you at Buckingham Palace today is also a kind of fate. Among the many roles in my life, the most satisfying one was that I was a student at Oxford.

Later he became the Chancellor of Oxford."

"Being able to see outstanding students who graduated from Oxford here shows that the essence of the school has not changed much. This is more joyful than me being awarded a knighthood. My life is coming to an end; but you are in the golden age of your life. I hope you can not forget your original intention.

, cooperate more with schools.”

Regardless of whether what he said is true or false, it at least shows the old man's attitude. Bao Zixuan cannot refuse directly at this time, and he came to the UK just to establish an engine R&D and manufacturing center. The old man can become the last person to be granted a hereditary noble title.

There is no doubt about the influence of the UK. At the same time, the strength of his family cannot be underestimated in the UK. After all, where is the identity of his wife?

The richest man Bao would not refuse the offer. So he said with a smile: "Students should not forget the teachings of their alma mater. This time I came to the UK mainly to inspect car engines."

"If the cooperation is reached, we will establish a research and development center with Oxford as soon as possible. I graduated from Oxford, and I will definitely cooperate with the school when I come here. Please rest assured about this, principal. In addition to the many projects we have cooperated with the school before, the results are remarkable. Black

Cloud Group is ready to increase investment in the UK, and there will only be more projects in the future."

Hearing Bao Zixuan's assurance, not only Macmillan, but also other staff standing nearby were very happy. Anyone coming to invest will definitely be warmly welcomed, especially high-end manufacturing companies like Heiyun Group.

MacMillan smiled and said: "Very good, it seems that you care about the school no less than I do. I hope it can continue. No matter how high your achievements are, you can never forget your roots. The school has the strength to cooperate with any enterprises and institutions.

, don’t have any worries or worries when you encounter problems.”

This is a bit exaggerated, because Bao Zixuan's affection for Oxford is definitely not as good as that of the old man. However, it can also show the old man's recognition of the students from the side. Of course, there is also a hint of deception in it.

In fact, I just want Bao Zixuan to understand that Oxford is your foundation in the UK. And the school is stronger than you think, so don't have any scruples. This is said to Bao Zixuan, more like saying it to the people next to you.

Heiyun Group's cooperation with Oxford, and Bao Zixuan's investment in the UK. Don't interfere with this, otherwise it will be the enemy of Oxford as a whole. As one of the two best universities in the UK, Oxford has the capital to express its attitude.

Afterwards, the two talked about other things, and the benefits of alumni status were once again reflected.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the awarding ceremony began.

The Queen of England also attended the event today in full dress. After all, this is a solemn moment.

Although Bao Zixuan is the protagonist, he certainly cannot steal the limelight from Macmillan on this occasion. The old man began serving in the British army during World War I and was injured as a result. Moreover, he is also the nominal teacher of Bao Zixuan, no matter from which perspective

, are not qualified to compete with the old man for the limelight.

Although Macmillan is already 90 years old, today in the UK is his most glorious moment besides taking office as prime minister. To be precise, it is also the last highlight moment in his life. There will definitely be no such opportunity in the future.

She walked tremblingly in front of the Queen and knelt down on one knee. The Queen touched her left and right shoulders with her sword. At the same time, she said: "As Queen of the Commonwealth, I grant Maurice Harold MacMillans

The Earl of Docton and Viscount Macmillan of Ovenden are hereditary.

After the Queen finished speaking, the royal steward began to introduce Macmillan's life story.

Although they knew Macmillan somewhat, hearing from the royal steward still shocked everyone. People who had complained about the old man's conferment of hereditary nobles before heard that Macmillan had been under the control of the British Empire for 70 years.

Most of the contributions he made are nothing to say.

It turns out that Macmillan has so many unknown secrets. No wonder the royal family attaches so much importance to him. Hereditary peerage is the best reward for Macmillan's 70 years of service to the British Empire, and he is well deserved.

After the old man obtained the title of noble, it was finally Bao Zixuan's turn to appear.

I had thought about meeting the Queen of England countless times before, but I never expected that it would be on such an occasion. Now that I have come, I will make peace with it. It is not easy to stand and let the Queen confer honors on him. Although he was reluctant, Bao Zixuan still followed the etiquette.

Kneel down on one knee.

The current British Queen ****** was born on April 21, 1926. She is the eldest daughter of the late King George VI. Her full name is "Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and other territories and possessions, by the grace of God,

Head of the Commonwealth. Currently, in name only, the richest man Bao is also his subject.

The Queen was still very young at this time, at least much younger than when Bao Zixuan saw her in later generations. She should not be easily offended by the future record holder of the longest reign in British history.

The Queen said: "As the Queen of the Commonwealth, I grant Bao Zixuan a life-long Baronet; I also award you the Order of the British Empire; in recognition of your contribution to the Commonwealth and the entire world."

Life peerage, also known as generational peerage, is a type of British aristocracy. Different from ordinary nobles, life peerage is limited to individuals and cannot be inherited by their children. The current life peerage is governed by the "Lifetime peerage law" enacted in 1958.

Control, the title is only limited to baron. The title of life peer is the same as that of Lord, and they can become members of the British House of Lords. To become a life peer, you can choose a fief, but this "fief" is only symbolic and will not contribute to the nobility.

tax.

The Order of the British Empire, also known as the Order of Great Britain; was founded by George V to fill the gaps in the British honors and awards system at that time. First of all, the Order of the Bath was only awarded to senior military officers and public officials; the Order of St. Michael and St. George were only awarded to

Awarded to diplomats; the Royal Victoria Medal is only awarded to those who serve the British Royal Family

As a result, George V hoped to commend some people who had participated in the First World War but did not go to the battlefield. However, it was precisely because there was no suitable medal that he prompted the establishment of this medal. This medal

It was originally classified into one category, but since 1918 it has been divided into two categories: military and civil.

Compared with the Order of the Bath and the Order of St. Michael and St. George, those who have received the Order of the British Empire are not just officials and meritorious officials. On the contrary, the recipients come from a very wide range of classes, so they are more popular in nature.

A brief introduction to Bao Zixuan's life was also given. His main achievements were in the logistics of the Falkland Islands War. At the same time, he also introduced the award he received and his contribution to the development of the Hong Kong economy.

From this point of view, Bao Zixuan is well-deserved for receiving a lifetime peerage and an Order of the British Empire; at least those present could not find any fault with it.

In fact, strictly speaking, there is still something unreasonable about Bao Zixuan's status when he received such a high title. After all, he is from Xiangjiang, and he only belongs to the British Commonwealth in name only at this time; the British have long had a sense of inferiority in their hearts about the loss.

As for the Order of the British Empire, it's okay, after all, there are many people who have received it. And compared with the title of nobility, the medal is not that important.

But today, with Macmillan's paving the way, people feel that there is no big problem in conferring life peerage on Bao Zixuan. After all, Britain has been conferring hereditary peerage on people other than members of the royal family for a long time. Although they are both nobles, both of them are not

There is an essential difference.

In fact, the British had already thought of it before, and the purpose was to make the domestic people less resentful of Bao Zixuan being granted the title. Granting the title is originally a good thing, but it cannot turn into a bad thing.

Compared to Bao Zixuan's calmness, Zhang Youran was extremely excited. From now on, people in the UK will call her Dame, which is also a symbol of status.

After the investiture ceremony, Mr. Bao experienced a British state banquet at Buckingham Palace. To be honest, he didn't really eat much, but there were a lot of rules. In short, it was very awkward. He knew what day it was, so he could only bear to finish it.

The Queen of England was quite concerned about him during the dinner. It seems that the British people's attention to him has risen to a new level.
