British 1986

As Boss Cha finally patted Allen on the shoulder, the entire award hall, including the clerks responsible for recording, spontaneously applauded.

Allen smiled and followed the waiter next to him to stand next to the red line drawn on the wall.

Although Allen's own medal ceremony has been completed, the others in line behind him still have to come in to be awarded the medal. This is not like the boss paying wages and taking away one by one.

Those who have been awarded the honors must wait at the designated location to watch the ceremony. When everyone is finally awarded the honors, everyone must take a photo together. This is for official commemoration. The royal family and the official will retain this information for future reference. Will check later.

Although Allen didn't have to queue up when the honors were awarded, after the first one was awarded, it was very uncomfortable to stand here and wait, especially since Allen frequently glanced at the Queen with his peripheral vision. When he got tired from standing, he went to sit down for a while. , and then when she feels better, she will stand not far behind Boss Cha again, smiling at everyone who comes in to be honored.

On this occasion, he couldn't escape early even if he wanted to. Alan felt as if he had been punished by the teacher and stood at the back of the classroom. Watching his friends go up to answer questions one by one, he wanted to get out of class quickly. As for the last step Invited to a party?

Forget it, he didn't want to go. It didn't matter if he didn't eat this kind of banquet. They were all traditional British dishes. Allen had no interest in these banquets at all.

We came here early in the morning to award medals. Even though there were not many people, they were awarded one by one. The ceremony for everyone was very solemn. Boss Zha had to encourage them one by one. Some of the award recipients were old. Even Boss Cha couldn’t do it. Not much to say.

The arduous awarding process continued until nearly one o'clock, which was already past dinner time.

Allen also watched the ceremony and applauded for several hours, which made him sleepy.

"Your Excellency. Your Excellency, the ceremony is over."

Just after taking the photo, Allen squinted his eyes, relaxed his back slightly, and looked like he was watching the ceremony very seriously. Suddenly he heard someone calling him, and he calmly came back to his senses, looking at the smiling face next to him, A rosy-cheeked Bobby Robson.

This guy can be regarded as a knight now, but Bobby Robson still knows what is good and what is good. As for his achievement, leading the England team to fourth place in the World Cup, it is high or low, and it is not low.

Theoretically speaking, without Allen, he would not be able to make it as a Jazz player.

But now that he was lucky, he happened to catch up with this gentleman to lead the team, and then he became a member of the Jazz!

Now that the investiture ceremony was over, Bobby Robson came to Allen immediately. In addition to wanting to share his joy with him as soon as possible, he also wanted to thank the earl who had "supported" him. Your Mightiness.

Allen glanced sideways at the other medals on Bobby Robson's chest, and felt a little curled up in his heart.

The full name of the medal that Bobby Robson received today is the Order of the British Empire, which can also be translated as the Order of the British Empire. The meaning is the same.

It is also divided into five levels in total, which can be regarded as the lowest category among all the current medals in Britain.

Unlike several other medals, among the five ranks of this medal, only the first two ranks can be regarded as "knighted", while the lower three ranks can be regarded as "knights".

There is only honor, no corresponding title, not even a title before the name.

But even this lowest-level medal, if placed in a place like Xiangjiang, would probably be enough for wealthy businessmen to grab their heads.

Compared with their title of Justice of the Peace, this medal has a higher status.

What Bobby Robson received was the second-class medal in this medal called the Knight Commander's Medal, or KBE for short. It is the lowest knighthood in the knighthood, and even Huth is higher than him.

"Let's go!" Without saying anything more, Allen motioned to Bobby Robson and said as he walked, he didn't want to stay here any longer.

"Your Excellency, His Highness asked me to invite you and ask you to go back with him."

Not long after leaving the Medal Hall, Allen was about to leave when he was stopped by a waiter who looked familiar.

"Well let's go."

Allen looked at Bobby Robson, who was planning to invite him to chat with him, and said, "Let's talk about it when we have time. I'm leaving first."

"Sir, please walk slowly!"

Bobby Robson looked at Allen with regret and envy as he followed the waiter and took another route. This is the advantage of having connections. Look at this His Excellency. He is so young and his level of communication makes him look like His Highness at every turn. invite.

Compared with a commoner like him, uh, no, he is also a knight now. Compared with a knight like himself, he is not on the same level at all. Originally, he wanted to invite this gentleman to have a meal with him today to express his gratitude and flirt with him, but now. Pity.

Boss Cha hated Windsor Castle, so as soon as the investiture ceremony was over, he hurriedly ran away. Afraid of being bored on the road, he asked Allen to accompany him, and the two of them could walk together from London to his Highgrove Manor.

When the motorcade left the suburbs of London, Boss Cha was obviously relaxed. He pulled the knot of his tie, reached out to open the cigar cabinet in the car, and threw a pack of ordinary cigarettes to Allen as usual, while he smoked a cigar himself.

Allen took the cigarette and didn't rush to light it. Instead, he watched Boss Cha light the cigar with interest. When everything was done, Boss Cha touched the ring on his left little finger out of habit.

Seeing his action, Allen's heart moved.

There was a very small question that Allen never had time to ask. Since nothing happened today, Allen boldly asked: "Your Highness, what is the meaning of this action?"

As he spoke, Allen pointed at Boss Cha's hand and touched the ring again.

"What?"

Boss Cha's hand that was touching the ring paused slightly, he pursed his lips and glanced at his own hand, then said nonchalantly: "Sometimes my fingers get a headache after I wear them for a long time. I have to move them around."

"???"

Damn it, is it that simple?

Allen was a little doubtful whether Boss Cha was perfunctory with him.

His actions may seem inconspicuous, but as the crown prince, his every move will be studied by countless people.

This action of touching the ring has a bit of historical origin, which happened last year, uh, at the end of the year before last to be precise.

A movie was released in Xiangjiang called "The God of Gamblers".

When this movie was first released in this era, the box office was average, but this movie can be regarded as starting the trend of gambling movies, and was later named one of the pinnacle masterpieces of Hong Kong movies.

The protagonist of the movie, the gambling god Gao Jin, has two major hobbies, not smoking, drinking, and perming his hair.

But he is awesome when he eats chocolate. Another hobby is that he likes to touch the ring on his right hand, and this little gesture comes from Boss Cha's liking to touch the ring on his left hand.

This is a kind of blind imitation, and they don't even know what Boss Cha means.

Allen didn't know either, but he had access to Boss Cha, so he just remembered it today and asked the person involved directly.

Boss Cha sighed. If it were an outsider, he wouldn't want to say more, but since Allen asked, there was nothing wrong with the two of them anyway. Boss Cha stretched out his left hand to show Allen.

Allen looked at Boss Cha's chubby hand, which he usually didn't pay much attention to, but when he saw it at such a close range today, it suddenly seemed strange.

Boss Cha is definitely not fat now, and is even a little thin, but he usually likes farming and raising animals, and his body is quite strong. In addition, he is not old, and he is a man in his forties. He was in his golden stage, but there was something wrong with his hands. They were chubby, like five small carrots.

The color of his hands looked very much like when Allen was a child, he had snowball fights in the winter, and when he came home at the end, his hands were wet. It was warm in the room, and his hands were swollen and swollen due to frostbite due to the warmth.

"My ring is a bit small and the size cannot be adjusted. If I wear it for a long time, I can't take it off and it always feels itchy."

Boss Cha asked Allen to look at his hands and explained by the way.

This gold ring looks plain and simple, but it is a token of the crown prince. Wearing it is a symbol of status and cannot be taken off!

Therefore, this thing is very tricky. It has a fixed size. In addition, Boss Cha’s hands are fat, and the headband hurts his fingers after wearing it for a long time. He has to touch it a few times from time to time to move the ring to activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis.

"???"

After figuring out the reason, Allen was a little bored. He didn't know what Boss Cha's action meant before. He had always been curious and was even influenced by the movie "God of Gamblers". He also felt that this action had a big meaning. The feeling of a guy is awesome.

Now I know the reason, it turns out it’s because of this

Suddenly I feel like this action is a bit low.

Boss Cha thought Alan was just out of curiosity and didn't care after he finished speaking. Instead, he talked about his trip to India early next year.

"You wrote to me a few days ago asking for someone. Are you planning to make another movie?"

Boss Cha doesn't want to say anything more about whether Allen will make movies or not. Since Allen has listened to him and gone to college, let's just regard making movies as his personal hobby.

"Yes, Your Highness is like this."

Allen reported his plan to Boss Zha in detail. As for the behavior of black nobles, Boss Zha doesn't care about him. He can do whatever he likes. As long as he is not a black noble, he can do whatever he wants.

"Well, as long as you don't lose your studies, you work hard this year. When you come back from India next year, I will award you a Legion Medal. You will slowly build up your qualifications. You also need to pay attention to it, you know?"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Although the Legion Medal is of a lower level and Boss Cha can issue it in his name, these medals cannot be issued for no reason. You have to do something to get them. Allen also understands that this is all done by Boss Cha for him. , this kind of honor, no matter how big or small, as long as you accumulate it slowly, sooner or later you will have it on your chest.

To a certain extent, Boss Cha is extremely controlling and conceited, but as long as you satisfy his mentality, that is, listen to him and let him treat you as one of his own, he will not be stingy with everything you deserve. .

The Queen's birthday is almost at the end of the month. Ever since Ellen came back from being awarded the honors in London, she has been waiting and waiting. It's already May. Patrice and Cameron haven't come back yet, and they don't know what happened. This makes everyone prepare. Allen was a little irritable when he started shooting.

Early May.

In the evening, Allen, William, and Harry gathered together to eat hot pot in the restaurant.

As soon as he picked up a piece of yellow throat, Xiaoshi walked to Allen's side. After he finished eating, he bent down and said, "Master, Patrice is back."

"Oh? Are you finally back? Ask him to wait for me in the study, I'll go up right away!"

Allen put down his chopsticks, took the hot towel handed by the servant and wiped his mouth, letting William and the others eat slowly, while he stood up and prepared to go to the study to meet Patrice.

"What?! You said they wouldn't let me take the photo?"

Allen, who had been waiting for this result for so long, patted the table and looked at Patrice who looked embarrassed.

"Young master, it's not that we don't want to take pictures, it's the Governor of Canada. I think he is very resistant to us. Before I left, he contacted us and said that he could provide some financial assistance, but the venue was convenient for them. It can’t be provided.”

"snort!"

Allen originally wanted to be tougher, but for the sake of money, it was okay not to provide venue support.

"How much do you give me?"

Leaning back in the chair, Allen breathed a sigh of relief and asked slowly.

Very embarrassed, Patrice stretched out his right index finger and gestured towards Allen.

"Farke, are these Canadians so stingy in everything they do? Only ten million?"

Allen looked at the index finger extended by Patrice, curled his lips slightly and cursed.

He went to Australia to shoot a documentary, and made off with tens of millions of pounds in the process. But Canada only gave him so little money, and no other help was provided.

As expected, he was led astray by the United States!

"Well"

Patrice looked at Allen, hesitant to speak.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Patrice's expression, Allen also reacted a little.

"Master, it's not ten million, it's one million."

"???"

Allen blinked, leaned forward, and said in a low voice: "One million? No other help? This is an old Canadian-themed movie, and you didn't let them read the script?"

"I let them look at it, and I don't know what the problem is."

Patrice was stared at by Allen so hard that he almost cried, this is such a bad thing.

"Then what the hell do you mean by giving this million? Are you sending it to a beggar? Do you think I am a beggar?!"

As soon as he heard this, Allen felt a little embarrassed.

One million pounds. A few years ago, before he succeeded to the throne, Allen might still have taken this money seriously, but now

This million is more like a humiliation to Allen!

As if he had never seen money.

Obviously he had never had any conflicts with people in Canada before, but now these people gave him a very bad feeling.

Obviously, the movie he makes is biased towards Canadians. A few days ago, Allen was dreaming that once the movie was released, he might gain some reputation in Canada, and he could travel there and make some money.

When Patrice returned from his business trip, everything seemed like a dream.

The image that appeared in Allen's mind now seemed to be that the Canadian raised his chin, looked at him with disdain, threw a million pounds at him, and wanted to get rid of him, just like teasing a dog.

This is fucking inexplicable. A dog bites Lu Dongbin but he doesn’t recognize a good heart!

"You two have been gone for so long and you just brought me this kind of result? Didn't you say that everything is under control?"
