Jinan, can you tell me how many wine table rules there are in Jinan?

Everyone follows the rules of Shandong, and the information is as follows: 1. Sit down.

Like most areas, wine tables in Shandong are round tables. Therefore, the following are examples of round tables.

1, "main escort" position: the main escort is the first rank of the host, that is, the highest-ranking guest or the most distinguished hostess. It's in front of the front door. The main function is basically the owner of the manor, grasping the time of this banquet and the degree of drinking.

2. "Co-pilot" position: Co-pilot is the second rank of the guest and the second most distinguished person among the guests. The position is opposite to the main guard, that is, the back is to the gate. Traditionally, this position should be held by the person who pays the bill. However, with the prevalence of hospitality corruption in recent years, under normal circumstances, guests are rushed out, so there is no need to let the second-ranked guests pay for such a trivial matter in person. So this position is more about driving guests to drink.

3. "Escort" position: This is a name that has just become popular in recent years. In fact, this position is different from the titles of "main escort" and "deputy escort" mentioned above, and the regulations in different parts of Shandong Province are not the same. Some places don't have this position, but in Jinan, there seems to be an increasing trend. The position is the second position on the right hand side of the main guard. His main function is to accompany the host and put the "guests" in the middle for easy care. If you are not particularly familiar with the local customs, it is not recommended that you take this seat.

4. "Guest of honor" position: the guest of honor is the first level of the guests, and it is the place where the highest or most distinguished person among the guests does it. The position is on the right hand side of the "main guard". Because many people care about the severity of drinking in Shandong, foreign guests who know a little about Shandong rules sometimes choose to let people who drink a lot sit in this position, which is wrong. The rule of treating guests is actually a kind of etiquette, but its essence is a kind of respect. If the above situation occurs, in fact, the real guests will not drink much less, and the honorary guests will generally be poured down (because you are not the most distinguished guest but sit in the guest position, just because you can drink, the guests must accompany you well), so the guests are not worth the candle, so don't avoid it! ! !

5. "Deputy guest" position: it is the second order of guest. The position is on the left of the "main guard".

6. "Three guests" position: the vice guest is the third guest. The position is on the right hand side of the "assistant".

7. "Four passengers" position: the vice passenger is the fourth on the passenger side. The position is on the left-hand side of "Assistant".

These are the basic postures at the dinner table. It should be pointed out that the four positions listed above are all the same in Shandong Province, and it would be embarrassing to list them in reverse. The position of "escort" is more particular in some places. "Three passengers" and "four passengers" are divided in this way in most areas, but the rules in some places are slightly different. For example, I know that in some places, the guests after the third place rank behind the "main guest" and the "deputy guest" in turn, commonly known as "attendance". When people can't accurately grasp the local customs, they can "inconvenience to change", that is, sit according to the host's arrangement to prevent omissions.

As can be seen from the above, the whole position is confirmed according to the position of the "main guard". So how to confirm the position of the "main guard"? There are two ways. The first is the placement of napkins. Generally speaking, because napkins are folded in different ways, it is difficult to distinguish them in shape. But one thing is unified in Shandong Province, that is, the napkin folded by the main escort is the highest, or the color of the napkin at the main escort position is different from others. The second is chopsticks. In a more formal hotel, there are two pairs of chopsticks in the position of the main escort and the deputy escort, commonly known as "public chopsticks". The function of public chopsticks will be mentioned below.

Second, serve food

In fact, it's not just serving, including pouring tea and wine. All the starting positions start from the position of the guest of honor, which is the right hand side of the host. After everyone is seated, you can see from the starting position above whether your position is wrong or not, and how the level of the host is. Then, for the first course, the host will give the host and the guest a pair of chopsticks with public chopsticks to show respect for the guests and that everyone can eat the food. No matter whether the guests like this dish or not, they should take a bite after thanking them (if it is a national custom such as Hui nationality, it should be put forward before this, and the host will be prepared when making arrangements. If the guest has special taboos, this dish can explain the reason and refuse. The host will put this chopstick on his plate, and others can still receive the signal to start eating. After the second course, the enthusiastic host will continue this action, but the host in the escort position should take the initiative to take this action, otherwise what's the use of letting him sit in this position?

It should be noted that people did not start drinking before this. It must be remembered that drinking is to listen to the host's greeting and not to act without authorization.

Third, drink.

Drinking indicates the official start of the party. So drinking must be initiated by the owner. Under normal circumstances, in order to show respect for guests, Shandong people choose white wine, the degree is generally around 38 degrees (Shandong people don't like to drink high-alcohol), and other red wine and beer can be used. But it is generally converted according to the ratio of liquor and beer 1: 6. Because different provinces in China have different reputations, guests in the north are generally asked to pour white wine, while guests in the south can relax. But to explain to the guests, we must grasp our own quantity and resolutely resist people who can't drink. The enthusiasm of Shandong is unbearable. If you start drinking, unless you are drunk, you say I can't drink white water. It is not impossible. Shandong people's various interfaces make you embarrassed not to drink, hehe!

Shandong people like to drink, especially in big bowls. Although there is no need for a big bowl or a small cup now. If you see Shandongese drinking with small glasses in San Qian in movies or TV series, it's sheer nonsense. Generally, the containers of liquor are in twos and threes or twos and two halves, that is, a bottle of liquor is poured into three or four cups. I wonder what your impression of containers is? Generally speaking, a teacup is two and a half. Don't feel lucky when you see a small glass of white wine in Shandong. Because you will soon know that this is a bite, and it will be too late to regret it. Friends who go to Yantai should pay special attention, because there is a local wine in this area called "Yantai fermented wine", commonly known as "little girl", and the cups are also in pairs. Enthusiastic hosts have a set of drinking procedures, which will be described below. I guess you'll be drunk after reading it.

Let's talk about the rules of drinking first, or take liquor as an example.

The more formal drinking method of liquor in Shandong province is to invite six people to drink the first cup, and then drink it at will. The order of the six ports is the main escort three ports and the auxiliary escort three ports (there are also four or two ports). Before that, guests can't take the initiative to propose a toast. The ratio of beer is one to six or one to eight (depending on the degree of liquor, different wine tables decide for themselves). The above is the procedure, as long as it is drinking, it is required to kill all six mouthfuls.

The Yantai drinking method mentioned above is the most inhuman (but not all Yantai banquets are used). Yantai's rules are "three two one" and "one two three", and the host and deputy each accompany six mouths and three cups. Three drinks for host and escort. Drink the first cup three times, the second cup twice and the third cup once. Then change a pair to accompany three cups, the rules are the same as above, and the rounds are opposite. After this lap, six cups are counted as two cups, 1 kg. I don't think there is anyone on the table.

After the main escort and the deputy escort have finished playing cards, the main escort will announce the start of free activities. At this time, it is a person. Let's start fighting. But how much to drink is negotiable. Therefore, friends who come to Shandong and can drink a little, advise everyone to be lazy and slippery from now on, and try not to get angry with them, or you will get down if you drink too much. Under normal circumstances, everyone on the host side, including the host and deputy, will drink with each guest once, and the enthusiastic host will drink with each guest twice. The so-called "state of etiquette, drinking in pairs." Generally speaking, it's almost enough for a guest to return a gift to each host once more.

Finally, the host will greet everyone to finish the last cup, which is the signal of the end of the banquet, commonly known as "Menqing" and Jinan is called "Zhengzhongzi". The last cup is required to be finished, but most guests can skip this cup if they don't drink enough at this time, just saying politely. After all, at this time, everyone has drunk enough and will not ask for more. In addition, I can tell you a little trick, that is, when drinking a toast, you might as well leave some and drink less. Because there is a saying in Shandong that drinking without drinking roots means "more than one year". There is also a saying that "drinking the bottom of a bottle gives birth to a daughter." But in recent years, the saying of "Fugen" has risen again. Hehe, the road is one foot high and the magic is ten feet high!

The last cup is usually served at the same time as dinner, so that everyone can have dinner. As long as you eat, you can rest assured that the battle will be over tonight!

Generally speaking, there are different drinking rules in different parts of Shandong Province, and it is difficult to unify drinking styles. Having mastered the above, there should be no big problem. The intensity of drinking varies from place to place in Shandong, especially in Jiaodong, Qingdao, Weihai and Yantai mentioned above. However, drinking in Shandong is very practical, and the host drinks the wine at the same time, which is different from the custom of serving wine in Henan. So if you drink in Shandong and meet a host who can't drink, everyone can relax a lot.

The formation of drinking customs in Shandong is closely related to the historical origin of Shandong. The so-called etiquette state is one, and Shandong is a big wine-making province. There are 108 counties in the province, and almost all counties have wineries. And what I want to tell you is that eating seafood is not suitable for drinking beer, and you will get a disease called gout, so Jiaodong, which is near the sea, drinks the most.

With the communication in recent years, the way of drinking in Shandong has been greatly improved, especially for foreign friends, drinking is no longer the standard of greeting. Banquets in Shandong have begun to develop in a more casual and relaxed direction in the south. But what I don't understand is that many business banquets in the south have begun to pay attention to many rules, and they are a little close to Shandong.
