Chapter 334: Toasting Knowledge
Why is Li Xianwen angry?
Because, when one of Minister Lin's subordinates shook hands just now, he actually teased her! He even saw her like a waiter? Li Xianwen was on fire! Who is she, Miss Li's eldest lady! When has she ever been ignored and molested like this?
Xiao Lin found that Li Xianwen seemed to have a problem, so he quickly asked with his eyes.
Li Xianwen shook her head with anger and signaled that it was okay. This reception is very important, Li Xianwen doesn't dare to lose a big one because of a small one.
Xiao Lin didn't have time to ask questions now, and was busy with the reception work. Because after Minister Lin and they arrived at the hotel, it was more than 12 o'clock at noon, and the leaders must be hungry!
Xiao Wenfang arranged for the leader to sit down and ordered the food to be served!
The liquor on the wine table is Moutai, the beer is Qindao beer, and there is a kind of rice wine, which is a specialty of Laixi City. However, there are also several kinds of wine that are strangely shaped and most people don't recognize!
It's the same with cigarettes! There are several kinds of cigarettes that many people don't recognize.
Xiao Wenfang smiled and said: "These cigarettes and alcohol are all brought by Huaxia Group! This is Louis XIII, this is Remy Martin, this is Hennessy, this is XO, this is vodka, this is Bordeaux red wine, this is Lafite red wine...... These are imported foreign wines and red wines!"
A few smokers couldn't wait to say, "What brand are these cigarettes? All in English! And in traditional Chinese!"
Xiao Wenfang smiled and said: "This is 555, this is Marlboro, this is KENT, this is Yves Saint Laurent, this is Lady Cigarette Salem...... Let's have a good taste of it!"
In '98, the degree to which small counties in China opened up to the outside world was very low! Therefore, everyone did not know imported brands of tobacco and liquor! Even if they were cadres from Beijing, they could not be regarded as well-informed. As soon as Xiao Wenfang introduced the big guys, she understood, and the cadres, including Minister Lin, were eager to try!
Considering that everyone was hungry, we served eight dishes in one go!
Seeing the color and fragrance of these dishes, Minister Lin was surprised and said: "Obediently, ordinary big hotels can't make it!"
Xiao Wenfang said with a little pride: "In order to complete this reception task, Huaxia Group has spent a lot of money to hire top domestic chefs!
Three highly-paid waiters immediately took action! One of them stood behind Minister Lin to serve, and the other two were busy serving the others! Minister Lin glanced back at the beautiful waiter standing behind him...... There is a feeling of being very valued! The reception level of Laixi City is really high!
In many places, the wine is poured before the food is served...... Here in Laixi City, the food is served first and then the wine is poured! Otherwise, people will say that they are stingy! Of course, Minister Lin knows how to follow the customs of the locals.
Xiao Wenfang picked up her wine glass and looked around the table, and finally said to Minister Lin: "Welcome Minister Lin to our Huanghai City and Laixi City to inspect the work! On behalf of all the people of Laixi City, I wish Minister Lin good health, smooth work, and all the best!"
Xiao Wenfang's toast is relatively novel! Just say Wishing you prosperity!
Minister Lin raised his glass and said happily: "Okay! Thank you Mayor Xiao of Laixi City and Secretary Yu of Huanghai City for your hospitality to me! Thank you Mayor Xiao for your blessings to me! Come, everyone have a toast together! I wish Laixi City a better tomorrow!"
Minister Lin's words were a bit profound! He first said Xiao Wenfang, and then Yu Fanyin...... Xiao Wenfang is a landlord, so it's understandable to say that he is the first to say that he is a leader! However, Yu Fanyin is the leader of Huanghai City, and it is a bit inappropriate to put him behind!
"!" Minister Lin's words made the cadres present stunned for a moment, but they immediately came to their senses and shouted Cheers! What kind of occasion is this? How can you allow your mind to wander?
When drinking in officialdom, it all depends on the leader! If the leader does not serve the cup, the people below will never dare to serve it first! Except, of course, when toasting!
In the same way, the leader has not finished speaking, and you can't show that you are absent-minded and just want to drink...... In that case, you're dead!
Even after the leader has finished speaking, when toasting, it depends on the situation! The subordinates must toast thoroughly! It doesn't matter how much the leader drinks! Also, some leaders don't like their subordinates to toast first! They want their subordinates to start drinking before their subordinates start drinking! These leaders often look at the crowd when they raise their glasses, and who will drink the wine in the cup before him...... Such a leader may be angry! The consequences can be severe!
There are also some leaders who like their subordinates to do it first as respect! You didn't do it...... Why should I be stupid enough to toast alone? When I encounter such a leader, if a subordinate hesitates and does not toast immediately, it is tantamount to forcing the leader to not be able to toast! Think about it, can the leader be happy?
From a small toast, you can study a lot of knowledge! Many people in the officialdom have suffered in this regard, and they have been beaten into the cold palace by the leaders, and they have not been able to find a reason to be depressed!
In this way, it's not okay to be the first to toast! It's not okay to toast behind! Then no one else is going to live!
Hehe, it depends on your level of observation and analysis! The higher the level of leadership, often like to toast to themselves first! Because these leaders understand the minds of the people below them, like to set an example and set an example, and they don't want to put on a leadership shelf to embarrass people!
Leaders of average level often like to do it first!
Therefore, people who have been in the officialdom for a long time have learned to observe! When the leader says to toast, don't move yet! If the leader finishes toasting, he immediately starts drinking...... Then everyone can rest assured! Let's drink along! Such a leader is broad-minded and will not care about some minor problems.
If the leader says Cheers...... And then within 3 seconds, his cup was just struggling and lifting...... Don't hesitate, brothers! Drink it quickly! Such leaders like to do it first!
So a small toast is a big thing!
After the wine has passed the three decades and the dishes have passed the five flavors...... The toast begins!
This toast is also very particular! It mainly depends on the mood of the leader! If the leader has no intention of drinking, it will be very embarrassing if you want to toast!
There is also an important order of toasting! basically from top to bottom according to the level...... Of course, in line with the principle of landlords, sometimes it can be used flexibly!
After Yu Fanyin, Xiao Wenfang, and Li Wenbin toasted Minister Lin...... Li Xianwen raised her glass and said, "Minister Lin, I toast you! I am in charge of the reception, please bear with me if the hospitality is not good!"
Minister Lin said happily: "Where, where, your reception work is really an eye-opener for me! Thank you! Thank you for your hard work!"
To be able to get Minister Lin's words, Li Xianwen was relieved, even if she received a little grievance just now, it disappeared.
During this period of time, the Luchang Hotel has quickly become a high-quality reception place under the construction of Xiao Lin! Today, Li Xianwen felt that it was not in vain to be recognized by Minister Lin.
