China immigrated to Britain.

However, since the UK's 10000000 (Tier 1Investor) policy was introduced in 2008 (it was raised from 20 1 1.6 to 2 million in 2004), various social welfare and higher education opportunities in the UK have also opened up for high-asset people all over the world.

British visas are issued in the form of 3 years +2 years. After 5 years, you can obtain permanent residency and apply for naturalization after 6 years. This visa also has accelerated conditions: if the applicant invests 5 million pounds, he can obtain permanent residency after 3 years; If the applicant invests 6,543,800+million pounds, he can obtain permanent residency after 2 years.

Strictly speaking, immigrants from China come into contact with most high-asset investors in Britain, and their quality is relatively high. Most of the assets accumulated for immigration applications are profitable through industrial operation.

For such a group of people, in addition to the simplicity and quickness of Britain, the remaining consideration is mainly the education of children, because Britain's excellent traditional quality education is world-famous.

With the rise of the British immigration boom in recent two years, more and more high-asset people in China have turned their attention from their children's higher education to their children's younger education, and Eton College and Harrow College have appeared in more and more people's mouths.

Another major driving force of British immigration is generous social welfare. The United Kingdom provides free medical care (excluding tourist/visiting visas) to all people legally residing in the United Kingdom. As long as they can successfully immigrate to British citizenship, they can enjoy a series of comprehensive benefits, such as social funds, retirement benefits, children's and pregnant women's benefits, and unemployment benefits. On the other hand, these benefits also ensure the stability of social order and the improvement of population quality.

Cultural conflict:

For those who are about to emigrate, living in a new atmosphere will make people feel expectation and excitement. However, many people lack psychological preparation for the upcoming cultural conflict, and they are very confused about all aspects of life after coming to Britain. If these differences are not understood and adjusted in time, cultural conflicts may bring long-term troubles to immigrants.

Compared with the traditional implicit eastern countries, British culture is quite different from China in many explicit and implicit aspects. The specific aspects that new immigrants need to pay attention to are as follows:

① Traffic rules

Contrary to China, Britain is one of the few countries in the world that drive on the left. Moreover, the streets in Britain are generally narrow, so it will definitely take some time for China people who have just arrived in Britain to get used to it. Apart from the fact that the traffic lanes are contrary to those in China, the British also have a strong sense of traffic laws and regulations: cars give way to cars and cars give way to people. If someone runs a red light or blocks the left lane on the elevator to let others get on and off, other passers-by will come out to blame.

② trading rules

Unlike the China market, the trading market in Britain is usually more open and transparent. The market laws and regulations in Britain are perfect, the supervision is in place, and people strictly abide by all the regulations, which is even rigid and inflexible in the eyes of many China people. However, it is precisely because of such trading rules that a level playing field is created, the gap between the rich and the poor is avoided, and social stability is maintained.

③ Value identification

British values are also very different from those of China. Compared with thoughtful China people, westerners, led by Britain, are more direct and don't like beating around the bush. In British values, family and health come first. Everyone seems to care more about "enjoying the present" than excessively pursuing "things outside the body", and it is rare to see someone who has been troubled by trivial matters for a long time.

At the same time, compared with the "label culture" popular in China in recent years, the British people are more tolerant and respectful of others' personal choices, especially those that do not conform to their own personal values. Without established value terms, life here will be easier.

④ British time

Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is adopted in the UK, which is 8 hours later than Beijing Time in China, but the UK adopts daylight saving time from the end of March to the end of 10 every year. During this period, the time difference between Britain and China is 7 hours.

⑤ Eating habits

In Britain, we drink a lot of tea and coffee, but we usually drink cold drinks when we eat. Different from China culture, British people don't think that drinking hot water or hot drinks is necessarily good for health.

Even though there are authentic Chinese restaurants run by China people all over Britain, when your British friends say that they have eaten Chinese food, they are likely to say "English Chinese take-out", such as fried shrimp slices and lemon chicken. Of course, you can also buy all kinds of cooking ingredients, condiments and pots and pans in the supermarket.

Britain has a long history and cultural heritage. These differences are only a small part of immigrant life, so in order to integrate, you need to work hard to experience and understand this country. There are magnificent castles, historic churches and unique buildings here. ...
