How to play guessing while drinking

Wine is a cultural tradition in China, and many people like to drink. Many people will punch each other at the wine table. So how do you play guessing while drinking? Come and check it out with me below!

1. Basic rules of punching

Two people stretch out a hand at the same time, using a clenched fist and one to five fingers to express the numbers from zero to five. Numbers, at the same time, shout numbers from zero to 10. If the sum of the numbers expressed by the two people's outstretched fingers is the same as the number shouted by one of them, then that person wins the punch. .

Example: For example, one person stretches out three fingers, another person stretches out four fingers, one person shouts seven, and the other shouts six, then the person who shouts seven wins. If one person stretches out his clenched fist (meaning zero) and shouts three, and the other person happens to stretch out three fingers but shouts seven, then the one who shouts three wins. The principle is like this. Of course, if you shout "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea" and you only stretch out one finger, then even if the opponent stretches out five fingers, it is impossible to make eight. This kind of punch is called a smelly punch. If it is not agreed in advance, There is a penalty of drinking.

2. Fisting gestures

When punching, you should say "Okay! Fist!" and match it with certain hand postures. Different postures should match the words shouted out of your mouth. It can very well play a sensory role in boosting the atmosphere of the scene. The numerical meanings represented by various hand postures are as follows:

★Clenched fist without moving fingers - 0-5

★Thumb alone—1-6

★Thumb plus middle finger—2-7

★Thumb plus middle finger and index finger—3-8

★Thumb plus middle finger, ring finger and little finger - 4-9

★All five fingers out - 5-10

This is called "fisting without leaving the thumb", set it before punching Rules, such as: "guaranteed five, no need", "win or lose, take care of yourself"...etc.

3. Comprehensive explanation of the fist formulas

Let’s talk about how to shout the general fist formulas. There are slight differences between the north and the south, but they are basically the same.

★Zero: It is called "Bao" in ancient and modern times, that is, "Yuanbao". Yuanbao was originally the name of a coin. It was named after "Kaiyuan Tongbao" was misread as "Kaiyuan Tongbao" in the Tang Dynasty. What we usually call ingots are horseshoe-shaped gold and silver ingots. The Chinese believe that wealth should not be exposed, so when giving orders with fists, they hold a big fist tightly and hug the treasure tightly, saying "the treasure will not come out, the treasure will not be exposed", or "a pair of ingots". People in Lianshui sometimes say "no de".

★One: Some say "one heart" and "certain congratulations". Du Fu's "Gaodu Protects Luoma Xing" has the sentence "Work with others with one heart to achieve great success", which expresses concentricity; "Nineteen Ancient Poems" has "One heart embraces trivial matters, fearing that the king will not notice", which expresses concentration. When doing Jingquan, it is used to express that those who share the same heart will drink, and those who are sincere will respect.

★二: Northerners usually call the word "二" with "Erlang carrying the mountain", which means that the god Erlang, Yang E, carried the mountain to bear down on the sun, which comes from the legend of splitting the mountain to save his mother. It is more popular to call "the two families are good" and "the two brothers are good" (when two people of different generations are fistfighting, if they call "the two brothers are good", it becomes a joke at the dinner table).

★Three: There are many people who call out "Three-Star Gaozhao", "Three-Yuan and the Third", and "Three-No.1" when making fists. In some places, people also call "Three Yang Kaitai". People in Lianshui like to call "Taoyuan Three", which means "Three in Taoyuan are sworn brothers".

★Four: There are words such as "Four Happiness", "Four Seasons of Prosperity" and "Four Beauties".

★Five: There are more words for five, including "Five Chiefs", "Five Chiefs", "Five Sons Dengke" and "Five Blessings".

★ Six: There are "Six-Six Dashun", "Six-Shun", etc.

★Seven: In guessing, "Qiqiao" is called, and Lianshui people love to call "Qiqiao".

★Eight: Often called "Eight Horses and Double Cups" and "Eight Immortals Celebrating Birthday". When calling "Eight Horses and Two Cups", the loser has to drink two cups. In some places, people also call "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea". Lianshui people like to call it "Eight Horses".

★Nine: Also known as "Jiuchang" (wine often). Drinking friends use this to show that people often gather together and never run out of wine. People in Lianshui call "Jiujiu (for a long time)".

★Ten: When punching, you often shout "all ten are here" or "all are here".

Drinking and toasting etiquette

Observe the words and expressions of others and add wine at the right time

At the wine table, you must know how to observe the words and expressions of others and learn to observe the behavior of others. Drinking needs, when the drink is low and the glass is empty, you must refill the wine for them in time. Of course, the order of refilling the wine must also be careful. Refill the wine for the leaders first, and then refill the wine for other people. Don’t wait until it is time to toast and then rush to refill the wine, which will destroy the atmosphere.

Toast

Toast is not simply raising a glass and drinking. It is also very important to say the toast well. Everyone likes to hear nice words, and telling the other person exactly what they are thinking can make people smile more. But if you don’t have enough vocabulary and you don’t speak dexterously enough, you need to practice your talents in this area.

For example, you can use the "advantage method" to find out the strengths of the other person, use your shortcomings to measure their strengths, and toast them with words of praise and worship. "People feel refreshed when happy events occur." Hearing your words of praise and adoration will surely impress the person being admired.

The order of toasting

When toasting at the wine table, toast in clockwise order. When communicating with elders or superiors, to show respect, toasts should be made first to those with higher seniority, and do not put the cart before the horse. If you are drinking with friends, you can be more casual, but most toasts are done in clockwise order.

The superiority and inferiority must be clearly distinguished

When there are leaders or elders present, the toast should be initiated by them, not by you, a junior. Also, when toasting, only the elders can toast one person to many, and you can only toast one person to another. The phrase “I’d like to toast you all” doesn’t apply to you, and unless you’re a leader in the room, don’t be too smart.

Etiquette of holding a wine glass

When carrying a wine glass, please hold the wine glass with both hands, with the right hand holding the glass and the left hand resting on the bottom of the glass. Remember that your own glass should be lower than that of others. The wine glass shows your respect for the other person, which is the most basic drinking etiquette.

Drinking should be moderate

When you toast someone else, it’s best to consider the other person’s drinking capacity and attitude, but never drink less than the other person. This is your way of toasting someone. attitude reflected.

Don’t talk business over the wine table

Everyone drinks to have fun and relax, so it is not appropriate to talk about work or business matters on this occasion. But after you drink and understand each other, the business will be almost done. At this time, "silence is better than sound."

Regarding toasting, there are the following principles:

1. The host toasts the guest of honor.

2. Accompany the guests and respect the guest of honor.

3. The guest of honor responds.

4. Respect each other when accompanying guests.
