Chapter 1356 Beckham's Jazz Dream

"No, no, how could I buy a lottery ticket? Don't be kidding. Don't forget that I am the honorary chairman of the FA. It is my duty to care about the development of some leagues."

William didn't know if it was because he had been with Yang Cheng for a long time, and his mentality became younger.

"Okay, let's talk about it, what happened, if it's still about the acquisition of the bar group, don't mention it."

William spread his hands, "oK, that's right, didn't you mention to me before that David wanted the Knight's Order?"

Yang Cheng was taken aback, "David? David Beckham?"

"Who else but him?"

"Well, I almost forgot about this~" Yang Cheng couldn't laugh or cry, he had really forgotten Xiaobei's request.

Hastily said, "So David's wish can be fulfilled?"

"No, it's not that simple. You forgot that there are different levels of knighthood. If it is an ordinary British Empire medal, David and Victoria already have it."

Yang Cheng patted his forehead, and he forgot again that Xiaobei and his wife had already received the oBE medal, which is the officer's medal in the Order of the British Empire. Two, there can be more than 800 places each year.

But what Beckham has always wanted is a knighthood medal that can be called 'sir'.

Among the five levels of the Order of the British Empire, only citizens of the United Kingdom or the Kingdom of the Commonwealth who have won the top two ranks - Knight Grand Cross and Knight Commander can be considered knights, and they can add "Sir or " title.

However, foreign citizens who receive these two honors can only be regarded as honorary in nature, and cannot be crowned with titles.

In other words, Yang Cheng is also eligible to receive the Grand Cross and Commander's Medal, but he cannot be called "Jazz", it is just a symbol of honor.

If it is given away for free, Yang Cheng is still willing to accept it in the spirit of not wanting nothing.

"If I remember correctly, there are fixed quotas for the Knight Commander Medal and the Grand Cross Medal, right? Only when the winner dies can a new one be replaced."

William affirmed, "That's right, last week, a commander medal holder died of cancer, and his position was vacated."

Yang Cheng knew that this position would not be easy to obtain. Sure enough, William’s turning point came, “But there are more than 30 candidates competing for this position. There are several strong rivals, and behind each candidate stands a duke or marquis."

Blinking silently, "So how long does David have to do PR?"

William raised a finger, "One month, every year in June, grandma will announce the list of honored personnel on her birthday. If you miss this opportunity, you will have to wait until the New Year. I don't know how many people will be vacant by then. Quota."

Although the honor selection criteria and procedures are very strict, there is no complete and comprehensive written legislation in the UK.

Basically, the queen can make a decision, and since the 1960s, Britain has increasingly awarded honors to non-state civil servants. Many celebrities in the literary and artistic circles can receive a British Empire medal. This thing is getting more and more The more worthless.

But for the British, being able to be called a jazz is still a supreme honor.

Saying no, but being honest, this is the status quo of British celebrities.

"I'll notify David immediately when I go back, and ask him to find a way to do public relations. If you need anything, I can also convey it for you."

The last sentence is the key point. No matter how many people have public relations, can there be a public relations heir to the royal family?

William smiled happily. That's why he likes to communicate with Yang Cheng. He is smart, doesn't need too much nonsense, and understands the principle of fair trade, and never lets the other party suffer. No one doesn't like such a beneficial partner.

It's just that for the current William, he lacks nothing but money.

Of course, if you ask for money, you can also score points. If you are not qualified, you can’t ask for free money. Instead, you will mock the other party for wanting to insult the nobles with money!

Of course, Beckham is a friend, shouldn't friends help each other?

So he said cryptically, "You know that my charitable foundation has been active recently, and the funds held are about to be exhausted."

Yang Cheng understood, "I think David must be willing to contribute his own strength to his charity cause."

There is no need to ask about this kind of thing, he can definitely agree on his behalf, if he is not willing to pay this little money, how about a fart knight medal? Go home and draw shields and play.

William made another big deal, and he was in a good mood, "Jason, are you interested? As long as you ask, I can think of a way for GBE."

GBE is the Knight Grand Cross. Compared with the 845 limit of the Commander's Order, GBE only has 100 people, and it can only be replaced after death, which is more valuable.

Yang Cheng pondered for a while, then said regretfully, "If I could add a title of Sir, I'd be willing to try it, but unfortunately I'm a foreigner."

This William has nothing to do, this is a rule passed down by the royal family for hundreds of years, and even he cannot change it at will.

"Sir certainly can't, but you can add Knight of the British Empire (Knight of the British Empire) after the name."

Yang Cheng shook his head, "Forget it, I won't rob anyone in need."

William is helpless, he can't just grab money from someone's wallet, right?

"oK, let's not talk about this, I have received information that the shareholders of Curry Energy Recovery UK are planning to seek to sell their shares."

Yang Cheng rubbed his forehead, "To be honest, in the past year, the UK has been selling and selling, which made me worry about the future of the UK and adjust my investment structure in the UK."

William touched his increasingly bright bald head in embarrassment. His original intention was to arouse Yang Cheng's interest in order to facilitate the acquisition. Who would have thought that Yang Cheng would be worried about the prospects of the UK because of this, and even planned to adjust his investment portfolio. Stones on their own feet.

"No, these are industries related to people's livelihood. As long as Britain does not perish, these enterprises will continue to bring huge profits to investors.

Take Curry Energy Company as an example. Headquartered in London, its business covers resource management, recycling and energy recycling. It operates the largest waste power plant in the UK located on the banks of the River Thames in London.

Corey Energy Company has six waste treatment centers on the Thames River in London. Most of the waste generated in London is recycled on the west bank of the Thames River, and then transported by boat all the way to the east bank of the Thames River for processing. The fastest updated Qiqi novel

Since the major shareholder of Keli Energy released the news, some large pension funds and infrastructure funds in the world are interested in quoting this energy company, and many state-owned enterprises from your home country have joined the competition.

It is enough to see what a high-quality resource this is, and it has an absolute monopoly in the UK waste disposal industry. It is expected that this year's turnover will exceed 100 million pounds, and its net profit will be nearly half. "
