Drinking is important in creating an atmosphere. At the same time, persuasion is also an art. We can often find such a master of persuasion at a banquet, and a few "rhetoric" will make you get drunk even though you have limited alcohol. It should be said that it is the basic "responsibility" of a persuader to let the other party drink as much as he can, and at the same time to liven up the atmosphere, and in addition not to hurt the harmony and not to lose face. Therefore, we must grasp the degree of persuasion when drinking, so that the persuasion is just right.

● Praise each other sincerely

People's resistance to praise is often weak, especially at the wine table, the lively atmosphere makes people's vanity easily inflated, and once the vanity is inflated, people will inevitably do some "heroic deeds" beyond the convention. In addition, if the other party still insists on not drinking, it will involve a problem of face, and the eyes of everyone at the wine table will cause him an invisible pressure: since you can drink, since your career is so proud, you don't even want to drink a glass of wine, do you look down on us? This pressure is easily felt by the other party, so he has to pick up the wine glass even if he is under pressure.

Zhang Peng in the unit was admitted to the graduate school, and at the farewell party held for him by the unit, you, as his boss, can advise the wine like this: "Hard work pays off, and sweat has brought fruitful results." We congratulate you today, you have to finish this glass of wine. In this case, Zhang Peng had to drink someone else's persuasion.

● Emphasize the special significance of the occasion

A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance. Some people never drink alcohol or never drink too much, but on some special festive occasions they are willing to take two sips or drink a few more glasses, on the one hand, because they are happy in their hearts, and on the other hand, because of the particularity of the occasion. Then, when persuading the drinker, he may wish to emphasize the importance and particularity of the occasion and point out its value and significance to the other party, which can not only stimulate the other party's sense of joy, happiness and honor, but also make him have to drink another glass happily because of the specific occasion.

At an old classmate reunion, an old classmate you haven't met for a long time doesn't drink, and you can say something like this when you persuade you to drink: "Okay, I won't advise you to drink this glass of wine, you can drink it if you want to, and don't drink it if you don't want to drink it." Anyway, today is the first big reunion of our Class of 88 graduates, and I really don't know when the next reunion will be. I know you're not good at drinking, if you don't think you should drink this glass of wine, everyone agrees, then I won't say a word......" At this time, the old classmate usually won't shirk anymore.

This method of persuasion, which emphasizes the special significance of the occasion, is generally effective, because no one wants to give a bad impression of ruining the atmosphere on such an occasion.

●Emphasize your special relationship with the other person

The banquet is an important place to contact and enhance feelings, and by toasting and persuading peers, superiors and subordinates, it can promote emotional exchanges between both parties and make the relationship closer and more stable. Generally speaking, if the persuasion itself can really achieve this goal, the other party will not easily refuse. In view of this psychology, we can emotionally emphasize the special relationship between ourselves and the other party when persuading alcohol, so that persuasion becomes a unique way of emotional communication between two people.

● Agitation with rhetoric

Everyone has self-esteem, and in order to maintain their self-esteem, it is sometimes easy for people to break out of the routine and make some kind of tough move. The same is true at the wine table, if we can use rhetoric to stimulate the other person's self-esteem and make them realize how much their dignity will be damaged if they do not drink the wine, then the other person will often "open" up and become a hero. However, using this method to persuade the wine must pay attention to moderation, if it is not successful, simply give up, so as not to really hurt the other party's self-esteem, the two of them are more energetic, and even hurt the harmony, then the gain outweighs the loss.

At a dinner party for employees of the unit, Xiao Zhang stopped drinking after a drink. At this time, Xiao Zhang's colleague provoked him like this: "Xiao Zhang, look at it, the young men in the unit have a glass of wine per person, and female comrades can be an exception." If you're not a man, you can skip this glass of wine. Why don't I call you a bottle of 'Lulu'? You see, the ladies have a bottle in their hands. Xiao Zhang was agitated and said, "Who said I can't drink? I'm going to drink it for you. As he spoke, he lifted his head and finished drinking. The agitation method has paid off here.

●Adopt a retreat-to-advance approach

For some people who do have a limited amount of alcohol, especially ladies and young lads, it is obviously not good to be too reluctant, so it is inevitable to make some concessions on the amount of alcohol consumed, and convince the other party by drinking one glass yourself, half a glass of others, or switching to beer.

The other party insists on not drinking under your persuasion, which is somewhat embarrassing, and if you make concessions at this time, the other party may be inconvenient to shirk again, but at this time you must be a person who drinks well, so it is nothing to suffer a little "loss" in this regard.

When persuading a lady to drink, someone used this method: "Wang Qiong, my saliva is almost dry, and you still don't drink, it seems that you are really not ready to save face for me." Well, I'll lose face. You drink half a cup, I'll accompany this big cup, right? If you refuse this time, I'll have to find a crack in the ground to get into! After saying that, he threw his neck up and drank dry. Seeing this, Wang Qiong had no choice but to drink this glass of wine.

The above methods and techniques must be used in accordance with the occasion. In fact, the most important point is that everyone should not forget that drinking is also culture, and the wine banquet should become a civilized and polite place for communication. The purpose of the banquet is to reminisce about the past, talk about life, learn skills, and exchange ideas, so it should be a harmonious, cordial, elegant and cheerful scene.
