Chapter 266 The Art of Relationships
Mitsui Hideki finished drinking Yamazaki in the scented cup for 25 years, Sumitomo Ryoko personally picked up the bottle of purple diamond McAllen for 12 years and poured wine for him: "When it comes to Suntory Co., Ltd., their third-generation president, Shinichiro Totoi, worked at Sumitomo Bank before inheriting the family business."
Mitsui Hideki knew that she was not showing off in front of her, nor was she said casually, but with a temptation to herself. She wanted to give her old story in person.
However, in his opinion, even if the two of them were blocking a window paper that had long become thin as a cicada's wing, it was not yet time for him to take the initiative to break it.
The complexity of Japanese society's complex relationship network can be seen from this. There are really few people who can reach a high position in society, who are really unreasonable.
Each has its own origins. Suntory Co., Ltd.'s headquarters is in Osaka Prefecture. At the same time, Osaka Prefecture has always been the headquarters of the Sumitomo Family. The Torii Family was naturally able to follow the Sumitomo Family.
"Men cannot do without alcohol, especially whiskey. The true middle class and the upper class of society must understand the interpersonal art of whiskey.
If a glass of whiskey cannot open up communication between the two parties, then a second glass will come. In addition to the long-standing reputation of the Red Wine Club, there is also a whiskey party that is not inferior to the Red Wine Club.
This represents a social identity and status. Although the wine you drink usually cannot reflect a person's personality, it can reflect a taste, economic strength and identity level.
Wine is a fast-moving consumer goods. It is not like buying a luxury bag, but it is more conspicuous. People who can sit together and drink, even if the social classes are different, have a better relationship.
Once people fall in love with whiskey, they drink some of it almost every day, which has become a necessity for life." Mitsui Hideki said calmly.
"Not only Japanese men cannot do without alcohol, they need alcohol to relieve stress, but also Japanese women cannot do without alcohol. There are many Japanese women who are obsessed with alcoholism." Sumitomo Ryoko smiled.
"After all, it's not because Japan has always been a high-pressure society. If there is a problem, it's all about one's own problems, not a social problem.
During the day, the Japanese seemed polite, but they were bound by the various rules and regulations of their country for a long time. When it was night, after drinking, they changed their whole body." Mitsui Hideki said with a smile.
"You must have been to Izakaya. What is the exact situation there?" Sumitomo Ryoko stood with him and chatted while drinking.
"You haven't been to Izakaya before? That's right. How could you go to places where ordinary people often go? Where you drink, they are high-end clubs and private clubs with a membership system.
It was a big surprise for me to meet you here tonight." Hideki Mitsui knew that Izakaya was generally the favorite place for ordinary Japanese office workers to go to. A daughter of a big chaebol like Ryoko Sumitomo would definitely not step in.
"Don't care about him. You haven't answered my izakaya yet!" Sumitomo Ryoko said with interest.
"What is there to say about Izakaya? It is a place to drink and eat. Nowadays, the popular thing about Izakaya is to have a glass of draft beer first.
After drinking a draught beer, a highball of whiskey will be given next.” Hideki Mitsui truthfully told the most popular way of drinking in Japanese izakaya.
"Or why do you take me there once? Well...it's just tomorrow night!" Sumitomo Ryoko's eyes showed expectant eyes and said to him.
"As long as you are not afraid of noise, we will go tomorrow night. In the izakaya where ordinary office workers gather, don't think about how good those wines will be. They are all very ordinary wines.
To be precise, you definitely look down on the highball of adding ice and soda water to whiskey. Anyone who truly understands whiskey knows that the best way to drink whiskey is pure drink.
As for adding some pure water or cola to whiskey, it is considered a mess. Even if it is whiskey with ice, it is still a mess.
What is the same as adding whiskey to old ice (ice cubes that are quickly frozen below minus 22 degrees Celsius)? It is also a nonsense. Or adding a large piece of ice, it is also a nonsense.
As far as I know, this method of drinking ice-added first started with Suntory's training of the mass market. By the way, there is also a popular method of drinking whiskey in current izakaya, which is water-cut.
This new way of drinking is to add ice to the cup first, then add whiskey at a ratio of 1 �
Finally, stir clockwise or counterclockwise in the glass cup for at least five minutes with a long spoon so that mist appears on the walls of the glass.
If you think five minutes is not enough, you can still have ten or even fifteen minutes. Of course, Izakaya will not do this. You can do some high-end bars or bars that are not very good in business.
It is often a painful thing for bartenders, and there are also many opportunities to get tips from customers.”
Mitsui Hideki raised her head and directly drank the purple diamond McAllen in her scented cup in 12 years. After drinking it in one sip, she said something.
Before he finished speaking, the clerk had already poured Baizhou 25 years into another empty incense-smelling cup and placed it in front of the other party.
Sumitomo Ryoko suddenly smiled and said, "Tonight, you feel like you are not a dead otaku! Do you know, what do you feel like now?"
"I'm not the roundworm in your belly, how could I know?" Hideki Mitsui said calmly.
"You can go down to a place where all the religions and all the society are high-ranking." Sumitoto Ryoko said in a flash.
"To be fair, what to drink is not important in itself. What matters is who to drink with. I drink without drinking a social identity and status, nor do I seek anything through drinking.
At most, I can enhance the relationship, feelings and connection between people through simple drinking, completely without the motivation of interests and impureness." Mitsui Hideki said the truth.
"Drinking alcohol can also mobilize the atmosphere." Sumitomo Ryoko added.
"If you drink too much, you will easily get into trouble. Especially for men, if you drink too much, you will easily be unable to control yourself and make mistakes." Hideki Mitsui said seriously.
