How to reject others easily and humorously?

Humor is everywhere in our life, but humorous rejection is not suitable for everyone. This is a lesson that we need to make up. A person who is good at humorous rejection can not only make himself take the initiative and advance and retreat freely, but also leave enough "face" for the other party and set a good step to avoid embarrassment for both parties. So, how to refuse others humorously? The following is a practical case of how to humorously refuse others compiled by Bian Xiao of Baiyun Koucai School.

An American lady who has read Fortress Besieged came to China and called the author of the book, Mr. Qian Zhongshu, saying that she wanted to meet him. However, Mr. Qian Zhongshu has always been indifferent to fame and fortune and does not admire vanity. He declined on the phone: "If you feel good after eating an egg, why do you have to meet the hen who laid it?"

Here, with his unique humor and wit, Mr. Qian rejected the request of the American lady with novel, unique and vivid metaphors, which not only safeguarded the lady's self-esteem, but also avoided unnecessary troubles.

At a news conference, the reporter asked Kissinger: "How many submarines are equipped with multiple warheads? How many militiamen are equipped with multiple warheads? " This is a difficult question to answer. If Kissinger says "I don't know", it's a lie. If diplomatic rhetoric such as "no comment" is said, it will fall into the stereotype again, and it may also cause reporters to ask more sharply and harder; If you tell the truth, it will inevitably reveal state secrets.

In the face of such a difficult problem, Kissinger seemed very calm. He said: "I know how many submarines we have; I also know how many militia are equipped with multiple warheads. But I don't know if this is confidential? "

The reporters were so happy that they immediately shouted: "No secrets, no secrets!" Kissinger asked with a smile, "isn't it confidential? Then tell me how much it costs. " Through this backchat, Kissinger immediately changed from passive to active, and skillfully and properly sealed the reporter's mouth.

The great English writer Bernard Shaw has a spinal defect, which is caused by his long-term writing at his desk. One day he went to the hospital, and the doctor suggested that he needed to cut a bone from his heel to make up for the defect of his spine.

After the operation, the doctor wanted to get more treatment fees from him, plus a little benefit, and said to him:

"Mr. Bernard Shaw, this operation of yours is a new operation that I have never done before!" Bernard Shaw smiled. "Great. How much are you going to pay me for the experiment? "

Such relaxed humor not only refused the doctor's unreasonable request, but also took the initiative to attack.

Sometimes it's really hard to say no in person. In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding and trouble, learn to refuse humorously and say "no" easily, which will avoid a lot of embarrassment.
