Chapter 755 Do you still eat this steak?

"Let him eat steak first, and we will find out the mistake of his eating method later to hurt his confidence so that we can take the initiative in the next negotiations."

Hannah is very cunning.

Before formal negotiations, psychological competition has begun.

Born in a family of merchants, I have been influenced by this and used it in practical ways, wanting to suppress Lu Hao's sharpness.

The two of them communicated in English without shy away from Lu Hao, and their words fell into Lu Hao's ears.

Western food has no market in China for the time being, but Qingchuan Hotel has opened a Western restaurant and other restaurants. In fact, it is not prepared for ordinary people, but specially prepared for foreigners.

When you come to invest, travel, visit, etc., you have to give these foreigners a place to eat. This is the purpose of the Western restaurant of Qingchuan Hotel.

The chefs invited and the relevant service staff were trained, and the etiquette was based on foreign etiquette.

The knife and fork were already on the table.

The steak was also pretty good.

Lu Hao didn't rush to eat, but looked at them on purpose and asked, "Why don't you eat? Don't worry, I'll treat you to this meal today."

"You eat first." Hannah frowned, "We feel a little uncomfortable, so we'll eat later."

She found a bad reason.

Lu Hao smiled and said, "Is it because I didn't take the initiative to pull the seats for you when I was just sitting, so you think I was a little rude, so I lost the appetite to eat?"

!!!

Hannah and Emily looked at each other, and both of them were a little surprised. Lu Hao actually knew this etiquette?

There are many things to pay attention to when eating steak. One of them is that when you are seated, men have to take the initiative to open the seat for women. This is the case when you are seated and leave, and they have to enter and exit from the left.

This rule is actually to show the gentlemanly demeanor. As for being a real gentleman, it is hard to say whether he or she is a gentleman or to show off himself under the guise of a gentleman.

"How could he know?" Hannah was very surprised and communicated with Emily in English.

"It should be a coincidence that people here pay great attention to respecting the elderly and loving the young, and respecting women very much. When going out for a trip, men will take the initiative to carry things to the women. When they need to do heavy work, men will come to help. When they go out for dinner, men will pay for it." Emily said.

Hanna was actually very clear about the situation she said, but she was a little confused by what Lu Hao suddenly said, so she asked this question.

Seeing the two foreign girls looking confused, Lu Hao felt a little proud.

Isn't it just Western food?

Isn’t it just Western food etiquette?

Not only did he understand, but he might even know more than the two of them.

The poor have the worries of the poor, and the rich also have the worries of the rich. Even if some etiquettes are not accustomed to or are artificial, they have to learn and follow them, because these are the default rules in this circle. If you do not abide by them and do not learn, everyone will exclude you and look at you with strange eyes.

That way, let alone discussing business or cooperation, even if you sit down and have a meal, others may get up and leave the table halfway, and will not give you a chance to speak.

Just like some things, they will be very awkward at the beginning, a little uncomfortable, and a little painful, but if you endure for a few minutes, the situation may improve and the results will be very wonderful.

"It's not because of this. You don't have to think too much. You eat steak first, let's wait." Hannah asked Lu Hao to eat steak first.

Lu Hao grinned lightly, picked up the fork with his left hand and the knife with his right hand.

Many people know how to eat steak. They need to hold a fork in their left hand and a knife in their right hand, but there are some special considerations in how to hold it, which many people don’t know.

He stretched his index finger and thumb straight, and stuck the knife with the first joint of his middle finger. The other end of the knife faced towards the palm of his hand. The same way fork was the same, but he changed his hand.

In fact, in a formal Western restaurant, steak is the main dish. When eating, you will enjoy it in the order of first plate, soup, side dishes, main dishes, salads, desserts and coffee.

However, it may be because they did not make any requests, or when they saw that there were only three of them, they thought they were just a simple steak, so Qingchuan Hotel did not prepare the first plate, soup, and side dishes, but directly served the main course and steak.

Lu Hao pressed the left end of the steak with a fork, fixed it, followed the side of the fork, cut off a bite-sized steak with a knife, and then used a fork to put the small steak into his mouth.

Very skilled in movements.

There was no sound when cutting the steak, and there was no sound after the steak entered the mouth.

There is no place for any city rituals.

This situation once again confused Hannah and Emily. They were expecting Lu Hao to make a mistake while eating steak, so they took the opportunity to attack Lu Hao, surpassing Lu Hao in momentum, and taking the initiative in the meal, but unexpectedly, Lu Hao did not make any mistake at all.

Not only is the steak cutter very correct, but the posture and angle of holding the knife and fork are also very perfect.

Relax shoulders and wrists.

Both arms were not spread.

The angle between the knife and the dish is always maintained at about 15 degrees!

These are the standard actions in Western food etiquette. They usually do not strictly implement Western food when they eat Western food, or even when they eat Western food with their family or friends, because it is too cumbersome and too stiff.

uneasy.

But Lu Hao did everything.

"I'll go to the bathroom." Lu Hao placed the knife and fork on the plate.

The knife and fork are opposite to the tip of the knife, forming a 8-shaped shape, facing yourself, then get up, leave your seat, and walk towards the bathroom.

In order to ensure that the two foreign girls were really frightened, he decided to do it a few more times.

The arrangement of knife and fork is very particular. This means that you will leave for a while and have to deal with something, and come to eat later.

Hannah and Emily were stunned.

"It seems that we underestimated him. Mr. Lu is not only capable of doing business, but also very proficient in etiquette." Hannah said, "For this meal, he obviously did his homework."

She didn't know that Lu Hao understood these etiquettes because they came from his previous life's experience. She only thought that Lu Hao asked someone for advice before eating this meal, and she didn't think about the direction that Lu Hao did after he understood their words.

"He was really surprising." Emily agreed, "our plan failed."

At this moment, they had no idea of ​​suppressing Lu Hao and embarrassing Lu Hao.

Surprised.

This is true for people. If you show your strength, you will recognize you and fear you, even if you are a foreigner.

Lu Hao did not really go to the bathroom, but just walked a few steps in a place where the two of them couldn't see it, and then turned around and came back.
