Chapter 4392: Now I am the only one

The seating arrangement should appropriately take care of various actual situations, such as people with roughly equivalent status, the same profession, and the same language can be arranged together; those with differences of opinion and tense relationships should be avoided from being arranged together, etc. After the seats are arranged, they should be marked on the seat with seat cards (table signs). The table number can be indicated on the invitation, or notified before entering the seat. It is best for large banquets to have someone to guide to avoid confusion. If the number of people coming from both sides is about the same, it is best to sit interspersed with each other, which is conducive to private communication.

Don't let your own people sit on one side and the other side sit on the other side, like a negotiation.

There is also a problem of division of labor and positioning here. When you accompany the leader to treat guests, you must understand your responsibilities. Sometimes, because the host leader concentrates too much energy on the main guest, he ignores the care for other guests or the grasp of the overall rhythm of the banquet. As an accompanying person, you should pay close attention to the overall progress of the banquet to ensure that every guest present will not be neglected and every link will not have omissions.

When ordering dishes, pay attention to one point: if there are few people, the dishes are best to be few and refined; if there are many people, the dishes are best to be refined and complete.

It is inevitable that it is difficult to satisfy everyone when there are many people eating. The conventional practice is to match cold, hot, meat, vegetable, chicken, duck, fish, and meat. It is best to have an arrangement before the guests arrive, and then ask for opinions emphatically. One is to take care of everything. You must ask if there are any taboos among the guests, and you must not make the guests unhappy because of a little negligence. The second is to highlight the key points. It is best to order one or two special dishes that the VIP usually likes to eat or that the hotel is best at. When the dishes come up, don't forget to introduce them emphatically: "Our president heard that you prefer, and this dish here is done quite well, so our president specially ordered it for you." In many cases, a dish can also play a finishing touch. The third is that men and women are different. If there are beautiful ladies at the banquet, then order fewer birds or chickens and ducks, because these things have many bones, and it is inevitable that it is not very good for them to gnaw bones on such occasions. The fourth is to treat everyone equally. If you eat at separate tables, the dishes at each table should be the same, so that it is not only convenient to order, but also one copy for several copies, and it can avoid the dissatisfaction of guests other than the main table. Of course, if someone at a certain table has special requirements (such as taboos), it is another matter.

Toasting. Generally speaking, toasting guests too much is a kind of disrespect to guests, but if some guests have a large drinking capacity and are not disgusted with the host's toasting, it is okay to toast a few more cups. The timing of toasting is very important. One is not to mix in when others are toasting; the second is that when toasting, you should also follow the order of status and rank, and don't be too rash. As an assistant toasting, there are also techniques for language expression. Generally, it should reflect the difference in status. For example, when toasting, we can say 'toast you a cup on behalf of the boss'. At the same time, you should also take the opportunity of toasting to express the meaning that the leader wants to express but is inconvenient to express, so that it truly reflects the role of the assistant. In addition, there should be no omissions when toasting. If you eat at separate tables, guests at other tables should also be taken care of.

Generally, it is best to choose a private room with a sofa for banquets. If you are not very familiar with the guests, talk about things before the people arrive before eating. The advantage of doing this is to make people feel at ease when eating. If you are more familiar with the guests and it is not a complicated matter, just express your attitude, don't say it when eating, but just say 'help me handle it' when sending guests off at the end. Of course, everything must be based on respecting the guests' requirements.

When the wine table is nearing the end, we should settle the bill in advance. Before checking out, politely ask the guests if they want to order anything else. If the guests and the host clearly indicate that they don't want anything, we can go to pay the bill, and we shouldn't wait until the guests leave the seat to settle the bill in a hurry.

If you have prepared gifts for the guests, you should put them on the car brought by the VIP in advance, and explain clearly to the other party's driver. Just say 'prepared a gift for you and put it on the car' before the VIP gets in the car. If the guest is picked up by a car sent by the banquet party, you should be responsible for sending the guest back. If there is a heavier gift, you must be responsible for sending the gift to the home.

Sister still remembers a great man saying that revolution is not treating guests to dinner. However, now work, a main content is eating and drinking. As a person in officialdom, if you don't understand the rules of the wine table, you may make a joke in public, and the heavy one may affect your political life. These knowledge should be noticed in the process of eating and interacting with leaders in the future. Some leaders may not care about these, but some leaders value these wine table etiquette very much. Having said so much, you can't remember it for a while. These are things that will be slowly mastered in daily interaction with superior leaders. Take your time."

After Zhao Desan finished listening to these words from Sister Su, it was like being given a lesson in official etiquette by Sister Su, feeling that he had benefited a lot. Every time he was with Sister Su, Zhao Desan would learn a lot from her. No, this time coming to Beijing, his harvest was even more abundant. He couldn't help but exclaim: "Wow! It turns out there are so many ways to interact with superior leaders?"

Su Qing smiled lightly and said: "China has had rich knowledge of being an official since ancient times. These things are slowly summarized. In fact, to put it plainly, being an official is about how to behave, interacting with other leaders, and weighing the pros and cons of various relationships."

Zhao Desan nodded as if he understood, endured the sleepiness and listened to Sister Su talk so much. At this time, he was already so sleepy that he couldn't help but yawn. Seeing this, Su Qing stood up and said: "Okay, it's not early, you were exhausted today, and drank so much wine at night, sleep early. I will go out in the morning tomorrow, you get up later, it's okay."

Zhao Desan was really too sleepy, so he nodded, sent Sister Su to the door of the room while dozing off, closed the door and came back, took a hot bath in the bathroom, walked to the bed swaying, plunged down, lay crookedly on the bed, and started snoring before long.

Because he drank too much wine that night, Zhao Desan was woken up by thirst very early the next day. When he climbed out of bed, the sky was just dawning. He picked up the mineral water in the hotel room and gulped it down, then fell asleep again. When he woke up for the second time, it was already around eight o'clock. When Zhao Desan knocked on the door of the next room, he knew that Sister Wu had already gone out. He stayed in the room alone, thinking back to the banquet last night in boredom, and suddenly thought that he was already in Beijing, and couldn't help but think of a person. Thinking that Sister Wu was not there anyway today, he picked up his mobile phone and flipped through the address book to find that mobile phone number that had not been contacted for a long time. After hesitating for a while, he pressed the green call button.

The phone rang for a long time before it was connected, and a woman's voice came from inside: "Hello! Who is this?"

Damn it, she doesn't even have my number! Hearing the other party ask who he was, Zhao Desan felt a little lost in his heart, and answered with a chuckle: "It's me, Zhao Desan, do you remember?"

"Zhao Desan, it's you? How could I not remember." The other party said with a smile.

Zhao Desan was comforted a little, and his mood felt better. He laughed at himself: "You asked who I was, I thought you had forgotten me."

"How could that be? I changed my phone, and many numbers are gone." The other party explained, "It's been so long since we contacted, why did you suddenly think of calling me today?"

Zhao Desan said with a smile: "I am in Beijing now, so I thought of calling you. Are you busy?"

"You are in Beijing?" The girl was a little surprised, and then said with surprise, "Where are you? Let's meet when you come to Beijing."

Zhao Desan said with a smile: "I have the same intention. I am at the Great Wall Hotel now, what about you?"

"You are at the Great Wall Hotel? I will go find you now." The girl's voice on the phone sounded very happy, and she proposed to come and find Zhao Desan.

Zhao Desan thought that Sister Wu was not there anyway, so he agreed: "Okay, I am in room 9088."

"Hmm, I will be there in a while, let's talk when we meet in a while." Saying this, the girl hung up the phone.

After making this call, Zhao Desan's heart recalled the experience of coming to Beijing for study a long time ago. Thinking of this mysterious girl named Bingbing, a joyful smile appeared on his face.

Zhao Desan sat in front of the business computer playing qq games. After waiting for about half an hour, there was a 'da da da' knocking sound outside the door. Zhao Desan hurriedly got up to open the door, and saw a fashionable and beautiful girl standing at the door of the room with a smile like a flower. He was stunned for a moment, staring at the other party with wide eyes, until the girl said with a smile: "What? Don't recognize me anymore?"

Zhao Desan then came back to his senses and recognized that she was Bingbing. After all, it had been almost two years since they met. People will change. She changed her new hairstyle, which made him a little unrecognizable for a while, so he hurriedly said with a smile: "You became beautiful, I really didn't recognize you for a while."

Zhao Desan's words made Bingbing feel very useful in her heart. She looked him up and down with a smile and said: "You have also changed, you are a little fatter than before." ===== CHAPTER 4393 =====
