First it was House of Fraser, then it was Hinkley Point - now the local pub for Britain's Prime Ministers has become the latest UK asset to be snapped up by Chinese investors.
The Plough at Cadsden - which last year hosted a visit by David Cameron with Chinese President Xi Jinping - has been sold to Sinofortone Investment for a reported £2m.
Sinofortone has designs on building the Buckinghamshire pub into an international brand and cashing in on the new thirst for British pub life in China - the world's second-biggest economy.
The Plough has already become a favourite with Chinese tourists after President Xi's trip for a pint and fish and chip supper with then prime minister David Cameron.
The visit also prompted a surge in sales to China of Greene King IPA, the pint supped by President Xi on that occasion.
Thanks to its location close to the Prime Minister's official country residence at Chequers, The Plough has seen a succession of top political visitors over the years.
Less auspiciously, it was also the pub where Mr Cameron accidentally left his daughter Nancy following a Sunday drink in 2012.
Sinfortone approached pub and restaurant agents Christie & Co about buying The Plough.
The Chinese firm's managing director, Peter Zhang, said: "The English pub concept is growing very fast in China, and it's the best way culturally to link people from different countries and build friendships.
"We see bigger opportunities, namely countries lying between China and Europe in where we believe we could also export the UK brand internationally."
Neil Morgan, managing director of pubs and restaurants for Christie & Co, said the pub "has become quite a tourist attraction for Chinese visitors… who are keen to sample the classic British food and beer that the President tried".
It is the latest Chinese swoop for a UK business after rather larger scale deals including the £1.4bn purchase of UK travel website Skyscanner for £1.4bn by China's Ctrip.com.
In 2014, China's Sanpower bought department store House of Fraser.
Elsewhere, China is a major investor in the new nuclear plant to be built at Hinkley Point.
The pub purchase is not the first investment by Sinofortone in the UK.
Last year it said it would put £100m into an entertainment resort to be built by US film studio Paramount.

Trump: 'Out of control' Air Force One deal should be cancelled
Donald Trump has said he wants to scrap plans for a new Air Force One - labelling the project as "ridiculous".
The President-elect claimed the cost of converting a pair of 747 jumbo jets into a state-of-the-art command centre has exceeded $4bn (£3.1bn), and called the expenditure "out of control".
On Twitter, he said the US government should cancel its order with Boeing.
Speaking to reporters outside Trump Tower in New York, he later added: "I think it's ridiculous. I think Boeing is doing a little bit of a number. We want Boeing to make a lot of money but not that much money."
White House spokesman Josh Earnest questioned Mr Trump's figures, saying they "don't appear to reflect arrangements between Boeing and the Department of Defense".
The Pentagon estimates that the Air Force One replacement programme will cost $2.87bn (£2.26bn) between 2015 and 2021,
according to budget documents.
Boeing also has a $170m (£134m) contract to conduct studies on the costs of building the plane with the requirements desired by the White House, including making it possible for Air Force One to communicate during a nuclear war.
In a statement, Boeing did not address Mr Trump's claims but said it would "deliver the best planes for the President at the best value for the American taxpayer".
Following Mr Trump's tweet, Boeing's shares dropped 0.7% to $151.08 (£119.20). Shares of other major defence contractors also fell.
In July, Mr Trump hit out at President Obama and Hillary Clinton for using Air Force One on the campaign trail, calling it a "total disgrace".
He said: "Air Force One is a very old Boeing 747 and it sucks up a lot of gas, a lot of fuel. Boy, the fuel bill. You turn on those engines (and) I can tell you it's a lot of money."
During his own presidential campaign, Mr Trump travelled across the US on his private plane, a Boeing 757-200 that has been dubbed "Trump Force One".
Bob van der Linden, curator at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, told Sky News there would be "very little likelihood" the US Secret Service would allow a serving president to charter a flight.
He said: "They would not know how the chartered plane was being maintained, they would have no control over it.
"Under the control of the Air Force it would be completely secure."
On Monday, the White House warned a phone call that took place between Donald Trump and Taiwan's leader had the potential to "undermine" relations between Washington and Beijing.

Vice president Joe Biden hints at presidency run in 2020
Joe Biden has hinted he may run for the presidency at the next US election in 2020.
The current vice president was recorded by a reporter saying: "I'm gonna run in 2020."
When asked what he would be running for, Biden replied: "For president."
When he was pressed on the comment, he said: "I'm not committing not to run.
"I'm not committing to anything. I learned a long time ago fate has a strange way of intervening."
Mr Biden's remarks came after he presided over an emotional vote in the US Senate to rename part of a medical innovation bill following the death of his eldest son Beau of brain cancer last year.
The VP, who has been a senator for 36 years, decided not to run for this year's presidential election after the window "closed" for him to launch a successful campaign as his family mourned Beau.
He mounted a presidential campaign in 2008 but dropped out to become the running mate for then Senator Barack Obama.
Mr Biden, who would be 77 in 2020, first entered the presidential race as long ago as 1988 but dropped out early.
Shortly after Mr Biden was first elected to the Senate in 1972, his first wife and one-year-old daughter died in a car accident.

Drake's Spotify reign stopped by The Weeknd
The Weeknd has ended Drake's long reign as king of Spotify, topping the rapper's record of monthly listeners in November.
The Starboy singer had close to 37.5 million plays last month compared to Drake's 36 million.
Data released by Spotify shows Drake hadn't been topped in a monthly streaming list since May.
The Weeknd's latest album Starboy, released late last month, has now been streamed by almost a third of all Spotify users.
Starboy has also been named the "the third-biggest debut of the year" by Billboard.
The singer's second album topped the music magazine's coveted 200 chart on Monday.
Starboy sold 348,000 albums in the week ending 1 December, according to Billboard.
That's still behind Drake's Views and Beyonce's Lemonade.
Starboy, released just one year after The Weeknd's breakthrough album Beauty Behind the Madness, is a mixture of R&B and electronica.
The lead single features a collaboration with French electronic duo Daft Punk.
Earlier this month, Drake was crowned Spotify's most streamed artist of 2016 for both album and song.
"Drake has been unstoppable this year, he's a true global superstar," Spotify said in a statement.
"With the top album and the top song this year, as well as his successful Summer Sixteen tour, Drake continues to engage his fans in a way that only Drake can," they added.
"It's no surprise he is dominating the music industry."
The Canadian rapper's songs have been streamed 4.7 billion times so far this year.
His title of most streamed artist of 2016 remains unchallenged.

Nigel Farage shortlisted for Time magazine's Person of the Year award
Nigel Farage is on the shortlist for Time magazine's prestigious person of the year award.
The former UKIP leader features alongside the likes of US President-elect Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin, scientists who have developed technology to edit DNA and Beyonce among the finalists.
The American news magazine appeared to give Mr Farage much of the credit for Brexit.
Announcing the 11-strong shortlist, which was chosen by the magazine's editors, the publication said: "As head of the UK Independence Party, Farage was a face of the successful campaign for Britain to leave the European Union, positioning the referendum as the start of a global populist wave against the political establishment."
The winner will be announced on Wednesday.
Mr Farage said earlier that 2016 will be remembered as the year the "little people decided they would assert themselves and could actually beat the establishment".
He was speaking during a visit to Sleaford in Lincolnshire ahead of Thursday's by-election, in which the Conservatives are defending a majority of more than 24,000.
Asked if his party's candidate, Victoria Ayling, stands a chance of winning, Mr Farage said: "I don't know, it's 2016, why predict anything? Only an idiot predicts things in 2016 because it's been so full of upsets.
"It's a big opportunity for voters to say to the Prime Minister: We voted for Brexit, we didn't vote for hard Brexit, we didn't vote for soft Brexit, we voted for Brexit ... and would you please get on with it."
Mr Farage again highlighted his closeness with Mr Trump and reiterated his belief he could perform an ambassadorial role for the UK with the President-elect's administration.
Speaking about his plans for 2017, he said: "Trump becomes president on January 20 and his incoming administration think that I have a very positive role to play between our two countries.
"At the moment, 10 Downing Street doesn't seem to think that.
"To me, that's a shame because I genuinely think we have an Anglophile president coming in on 20 January, a big opportunity to completely reset the relationship after the Obama years."

Ban Ki-moon: South Korea's next president?
The United Nations' position on Syria has been consistent: there cannot be a military solution.
But those words now sound very hollow.
In eastern Aleppo, no one expects a political settlement. Hour by hour, Bashar al-Assad's government -backed by Hezbollah, Iran and the military might of Russia - advances.
The nearly six-year-long conflict in Syria has claimed hundreds of thousands of lives and displaced millions of people.
The man who has led the UN throughout the Syrian war, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, is in the final few weeks of his 10-year term at the UN.
On Talk to Al Jazeera, Ban Ki-moon discusses the state of the Syrian war and whether there will be accountability for the war crimes committed; his thoughts on the new Trump era and the impact on the international community; and - with his home country South Korea facing political crisis - his future plans.
Come January 1, 2017, when I return to Korea, I will need to discuss with some community leaders and my friends on what and how I can contribute as the former secretary-general of the UN to my motherland Korea.
Ban Ki-moon, secretary-general of the United Nations
"It has been a sad and heartbreaking experience for me to see that the Syrian people have been suffering tremendously during the last five years. It's a collective failure of the international community," says Ban, when asked how history will judge the international community on Syria.
"The United Nations and regional powers should have helped them resolve their problems. But unfortunately regional powers and the United Nations, particularly the Security Council, have been divided. That is why we have not been able to resolve this issue. There is no military solution."
He says he has been reiterating that inclusive, Syrian-led, intra-Syrian dialogue is the only way to resolve the conflict.
When pressed that this line has become a mantra, Ban points to the efforts of UN special envoy Staffan de Mistura, US Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian foreign minister Sergey V Lavrov.
We ask Ban what it means that Bashar al-Assad, responsible for such brutality and quite possibly war crimes, should continue to remain in office even after US President Barack Obama and Ban himself will have left their posts.
"Even though the justice cannot be done today, I'm confident that there will be justice," he says, adding that the priority right now should be saving human lives and delivering humanitarian assistance.
We speak to Ban about the future of the International Criminal Court (ICC), and if it loses relevance, whether Assad can be held accountable. Russia has expressed its displeasure with the ICC and African nations have been pulling out, while others are thinking of withdrawing. Ban said he believes that the ICC must be preserved.
On the issue of US President-elect Donald Trump declaring the UN weak and incompetent, Ban points to the US's long commitment to the world body, saying: "I am sure that President-elect Donald Trump will also continue to play a very important global role in working together with the United Nations in maintaining peace and security and development and human rights."
When asked whether Trump's criticisms are true, Ban says it's important that member states should bring their "global perspectives rather than ... narrow, national perspectives. That is the way why United Nations has often been criticised as inefficient and not being able to make decisions."
We speak to him about the UN's many failures - bringing cholera to Haiti; failing to protect people in South Sudan; and in the Central African Republic, peacekeepers were involved in the sexual abuse of children - and if he feels ashamed that the UN, instead of bringing good, has also brought harm.
Ban says he has expressed his deep regret for the cholera epidemic in Haiti. When it comes to sexual abuse and violations by peacekeepers and UN staff, he says: "I have made a zero-tolerance policies and I have taken immediate actions."
On the question of what he thinks about Trump considering scrapping achievements, such as the restoration of US relations with Cuba, the Iran nuclear deal, and the Paris climate accord, he says he has already spoken to the US president-elect about these issues but does not go into further detail.
We ask Ban about what he'll do next and whether he would consider serving his country, which is currently facing political crisis and widespread protests, if South Koreans call upon him to do so.
"Come January 1, 2017, when I return to Korea, I will need to discuss with some community leaders and my friends on what and how I can contribute as the former secretary-general of the United Nations to my motherland Korea," he said.
"Of course, I will be relieved of this huge burden, mental and physical. It has been a great privilege for me to have served this great organisation for humanity during the last 10 years. Now as a private citizen, I will still be embedded with such principles and goals of the United Nations on which I have been working, like international peace and security, sustainable development, and human rights.
"As a private citizen, I will try to continue to raise my voice and contribute whatever I can to help the United Nations. At the same time I will also think about what would be the best way for me to work for my own country."

Jeep Carrying Castro's Ashes Breaks Down During Funeral Procession
The antiquated Jeep carrying deceased Cuban dictator Fidel Castro's remains broke down during a funeral procession that marked the end of nine days of official mourning in Cuba.
Before and after the mechanical impediment, throngs of people looked on and cheered as Castro's procession passed them by.
As FoxNews.com reported:
The Russian-made jeep ferrying Castro's ashes broke down and needed to be pushed on Saturday en route to the late leader's final resting place.
The breakdown of the jeep in the midst of adoring crowds chanting "Long live Fidel!" was symbolic of the dual nature of Castro's Cuba.
While his legacy inspires fierce adulation by many of the nation's citizens, others continue to grumble about Cuba's autocratic government, inefficient bureaucracy and stagnant economy.
Since the Communist nation has been cut off from the United States and other countries since Castro unseated the previous leader Fulgencio Batista in 1959, a good portion of the island's infrastructure has somewhat frozen in time.
The jeep had to be pushed by Cuban soldiers to Castro's interment site.
Castro died late last month at the age of 90.
