Chapter 9 Etiquette Training
finally finished the military training and wanted to sleep lazily, but Si Mingyu was woken up by the phone in the morning. When I picked up my phone, I saw that it was the office of the group company.
"Hello, is it Si Mingyu? I am Han Ziwei from the President's Office. A sweet female voice came from the other side.
"Hello, I'm Si Mingyu, what's the matter?" Si Mingyu got up and went to the veranda while answering the phone, and closed the two, all of them were sleeping and talking on the phone to affect the rest of others.
"The company has arranged etiquette training for you, and I have applied to add you with WeChat, you pass it, and I will send you the time and place." Han Ziwei said.
"Oh, okay, I'll get through."
After hanging up the phone, Si Mingyu passed Han Ziwei's application, and the other party sent the address and contact information of the etiquette company, and the agreed time was ten o'clock this morning, and specially indicated that his identity could not be exposed.
"It looks like I can't sleep anymore." Si Mingyu sighed and began to wash.
He didn't wonder why it was arranged today, after all, it was not difficult for the company to know which day he had a day off and which day he had classes.
Now that he knows that it is etiquette training, he naturally has to wear it relatively well, Si Mingyu changed into a shirt, casual trousers and leather shoes, but they are all third-tier brands, so don't mention it.
When he had already gotten on the subway according to the navigation, he received a message from the group, Lin Wenhui asked him if he had gone to the cafeteria, and if he did, he would come back to bring breakfast to everyone.
"I have something to go out today, I guess I will come back in the evening, don't count on me." Si Mingyu replied with a message.
After some heated discussion, the three of them decided to skip meals in the morning and continue to sleep, so the dormitory group was instantly quiet.
According to the address, I came to an old bungalow in the XH district, there was no sign in front of the courtyard gate, and it looked no different from an ordinary house.
stepped forward and rang the doorbell, and an old man in his fifties opened the door.
"Hello, my name is Si Mingyu, and I'm here to find Mr. Fu."
"Please come with me." The old man let Si Mingyu in.
"Mr. Fu, the person has arrived." The uncle bent down and said goodbye, and then went out.
The living room is nearly 100 square meters, and there are several sofas on which four people sit.
Among them, a middle-aged man in a suit in his 40s is Mr. Fu, next to a lady in her 50s wearing a cheongsam, a white man in sportswear, and a beautiful young lady in her 256.
Si Mingyu couldn't help but take a few more looks, the young lady was wearing a smocked shirt of LV, the clothes were very long, and the lower body was covered, a pair of legs were long and white, and the feet were TERRITORY flat boots of the same brand.
"Sit down." Mr. Fu pointed to the sofa next to him.
"Thank you."
"From now on, I will be your etiquette teacher, just call me Mr. Fu." He pointed to the three people next to him and introduced them one by one: "Mrs. Zeng, I am responsible for teaching you historical knowledge. Branson, your fitness instructor and language teacher. Li Shi Jianing is responsible for teaching you fashion knowledge. ”
Mr. Fu's introduction had already made Si Mingyu confused, in his mind, the etiquette training was just a group of people sitting below listening to the teacher's lecture, and then practicing it during the period, he never imagined that it would be four people who taught him.
However, although he was a little confused, he did not speak much. Judging from this situation, the cost must not be low, and someone spends money to let him train, so just learn from the teacher. In his opinion, the more knowledge the better, and he may use it at some point.
Mr. Fu took out his mobile phone and added Si Mingyu's prestige, and then pulled the four people into a group: "The class schedule is in the group." ”
Si Mingyu saw that this course accounted for half of his spare time, and the rest was probably reserved for him to study.
"Tell me about your understanding of etiquette." Mr. Fu asked.
"Etiquette is a code of conduct that people agree to agree on in terms of appearance, appearance, manners, rituals, speech and behavior in social interactions, in order to respect each other. Etiquette is a general term for etiquette, courtesy, manners, and rituals. Si Mingyu replied fluently, after all, he checked the Internet before coming.
"It's good to be able to prepare before coming." Mr. Fu said: "Let me say it briefly. Etiquette is simple to say, but it takes a long time to learn and get used to it, and you shouldn't have this foundation, so you have to work hard. ”
"I understand." Si Mingyu nodded.
"You should be good at English, right?" Mr. Fu asked again.
"It's okay." can be admitted to the magic capital Jiaotong University Si Mingyu thinks that his English is not bad.
"You can choose a random paragraph and read it." Mr. Fu casually picked up the English magazine on the table and handed it over.
"In the future, it is indispensable to attend events with foreigners, and your Qin dialect English must be changed. Time was tight, and after that, we spoke English in our daily conversations. Mr. Fu shook his head and said.
These words made Si Mingyu very embarrassed, he always felt that he spoke well.
The four of them chatted for another half an hour and then started the lesson.
First of all, Branson's fitness class, he is British, and the teaching is also a pure old London Zhengmi flag tone, Si Mingyu chatted with Si Mingyu when he exercised as required, which was regarded as a language class by the way.
All kinds of actions of etiquette are made by people, and in order to achieve good results, it is very important to have a figure that meets the public's aesthetics, after all, people with a good figure look good in clothes, and the first impression left on people is good.
This was followed by Mr. Fu's etiquette class, in which he explained the matters to be paid attention to in clothing, food, behavior and speech when attending various occasions. The requirements are very strict, and if you are slightly distracted and do something wrong, you will be beaten. Take a ring ruler and hit the palm of your hand, and a treatment for elementary school students.
"If you want to say that the birthplace of Chinese etiquette is not much higher than that of foreigners. It's a pity that the ones that are popular now are their set, and we can only follow along. If you have time after the course, I will teach you our own manners. Mr. Fu said with emotion.
The lunch was prepared by Mr. Fu, a table of pure French food, which was also one of the contents of the training.
At the dining table, Mr. Fu introduced Si Mingyu to the dishes, from the selection of materials to cooking techniques, to the characteristics of taste.
"It's very easy to eat, just want to eat a bowl of noodles. Eating is also a very complicated thing, like today's meal, there is a lot of exquisiteness, but it is simple or complicated, you always have to taste it yourself to know the taste. Mr. Fu said and pointed to the red wine next to him: "Take Lafite, which is the most widely spread in the market, as an example, what is good about it, most people are like it." This bottle is okay, you taste it first and I'll tell you. ”
In the afternoon, Mrs. Zeng explained to Si Mingyu the history of China, of course, not the official history in the textbook, but the evolution and development of various families left from the Guofu period, and the rise of various large companies and groups. Although these are of little use to ordinary people, they must have a meaning when they teach you, just listen to it.
