Just two bags of dumplings have won the favor of Japanese people, which must be extremely incredible in the eyes of Chinese people.

But this illustrates a very important practical issue. A truly good gift must have the following characteristics.

First, give something that the recipient appreciates and really needs.

Second, it is to give something that is reasonable but unexpected.

Third, the gift given can represent the sincerity and friendliness of the giver, as well as the noble thoughts and tastes.

Fourth, it is best to give a gift that also shows a sense of humor.

Fifth, the gifts given will never exceed one's reasonable budget.

In fact, Japanese people care very much about the form of gift-giving, and they need to carefully wrap gifts and send blessings.

Of course, this is so that you can fully express your sincerity when giving gifts.

But it doesn’t mean I don’t care about the content at all.

It would be almost meaningless to just put a towel in the exquisite packaging.

Although Ning Weimin did not have exquisite packaging, he was able to seize the opportunity to give gifts and gave them the most appropriate gifts.

Moreover, you can express your sincerity by practicing and making it yourself. This kind of blessing is what the host hopes to receive most.

The natural effect is overwhelming and it directly attracts good people.

There is nothing surprising about this, except that it shows that Chinese food is so attractive that it is a dimensionality-reducing blow to any foreigner.

It can only mean that Ning Weimin is very discerning, knows how to do what others want, and is very proficient in the art of giving gifts.

In comparison, at this time, some domestic companies and institutions entertained European and American guests, and it was extremely stupid to give them high-quality tea without any foreign letters but with high value.

It has completely achieved the counter-effect of "principalizing courtesy but not friendship".

In short, simple Japanese people don't understand how many twists and turns Ning Weimin has in his heart.

All the people present were impressed by his opportunistic "dumpling diplomacy".

So now, the family dinner held at Taniguchi's house has officially entered a virtuous cycle.

In addition, we must also admit that adequate language communication between people is essential, otherwise the more misunderstandings exist, the more they will deepen.

However, as long as there is a desire to communicate with each other, even complete strangers can sit down and have a calm chat, and many things will be easier to handle.

For example, Yujiro Sakai, who attended the party very rashly today, was disliked by the host because he came uninvited.

Moreover, his motive for coming this time was a bit philistine. He was obviously thinking about Ning Weimin's money bag.

Not only did he want Ning Weimin to buy the property recommended by Kagawa Miyo's subsidiary, but he also wanted to get him to insure it with his own company.

But he and Miyoko Kagawa were both strangers who came to Tokyo from a different place to look for happiness and worked hard but had no fixed place to live.

They met in Tokyo and have been dating for a year.

The families of both parties have also approved of their marriage, and they have basically reached the point of discussing marriage.

However, due to poor economic conditions, it is still far away from saving money to buy a house and get married in Tokyo.

So naturally, the two of them would be extremely envious of the Taniguchi family's private residence.

And in the process of chatting, this emotion of desire and envy was fully expressed.

This immediately gave the Taniguchi couple, especially the wife Kayo Taniguchi, a great sense of psychological comfort.

In turn, Taniguchi Kayo's dislike for Sakai Yujiro was reduced accordingly.

Why is this happening?

In fact, the main reason is that the sources of happiness for a Japanese housewife are too few and too simple.

It is not difficult to imagine that Mrs. Taniguchi’s daily life, apart from taking care of her family’s daily life and watching TV programs, the most important thing is to compare her own life with that of her neighbors, relatives and friends.

It's a pity that Director Taniguchi belongs to a disadvantaged group in the workplace. Except for his appearance once when he was lucky enough to join a foreign company, he has always been at the tail end of his career for so many years.

Mrs. Taniguchi had long been despairing about his future and no longer had any hope.

Every time he went to a gathering of company relatives, Taniguchi Kayo would feel inferior and instead be full of envy for those young ladies.

Because at least her husband still has the possibility of promotion.

In addition, her son and daughter are not outstanding academically, and Mrs. Taniguchi is also worried about their children's future.

It was really a long time since I had enjoyed the comfort brought by my psychological advantage, and I didn’t like communicating with others even more.

Only today, after being praised by two young people, did this housewife, who had long been tired of the mediocre life, feel some spiritual relief.

Suddenly, I realized that my little life was not useless. At least it was much better than those foreigners who struggled in Tokyo with their bare hands.

I can’t help but feel lucky that my family made the decision to buy a house as early as 1969.

Indeed, their family's luck can be measured entirely in terms of money.

I think when they bought the house, the total price was less than 8 million yen.

I took out a loan of 7 million from the bank and paid it back in twenty years. I will be able to make it in a few years.

But now, the price of this apartment has actually risen to almost 20 million.

If we consider the current average salary of 180,000 yuan for newly graduated college students in Tokyo, it would take ten years of no food or drink to earn it.

When it comes to getting a loan from a bank, regardless of job promotion factors, young people today have a much harder time than they did back then.

Doesn’t this mean they made more than 10 million yen out of thin air?

Of course, having said that, after all, today there is a wealthy man like Ning Weimin who spends 600 million yen to buy a house, competing with him.

And Japanese people have a special liking for single-family houses.

It is the common wish of all Japanese people to own a house with a garden.

Therefore, when Mrs. Taniguchi received compliments, she was happy at first, but she was not too complacent about the apartment house provided by the government for low- and middle-income people.

Instead, he said very humbly that his home was just a humble house with nothing to boast about.

I believe that as long as today's young people are willing to work hard, their living conditions in the future will be better than houses like this.

But don't forget, Ning Weimin is a good one, and he has a eloquent tongue, and he specializes in picking up nice things to say.

When Mrs. Taniguchi said this, the boy compared it with the situation in the Republic.

I would like to tell you that the system of the Republic is public ownership of land, housing is mainly allocated housing, and there is almost no commercial housing market.

Even a 3LDK house like the one bought by the Taniguchi couple with an area of ​​​​70 square meters is already a high-end residence in the Republic that can only be enjoyed by bureau-level cadres, or first-class scientists and literary celebrities.

Coupled with the fact that he knew what Japan's future was going to be like, Ning Weimin later stated with great certainty that his primary consideration when buying a property was not the property's attributes and layout, but the location.

Because the closer to the city center, the higher the price, which is a general rule.

He believes that even though the Taniguchi family bought an ordinary apartment, the Sumida district where it is now located has become a sub-center of Tokyo.

This property will definitely appreciate greatly in the future, and the increase and price will definitely exceed that of new houses in the suburbs.

He even more boldly predicted that when Director Taniguchi retires, just selling the house here will be enough to buy two one-family houses in the suburbs.

At this time, Mrs. Taniguchi felt a little overwhelmed by the praise, and felt that her house was really worthy of being seriously proud of.

Regardless of whether this is true or not, whether you believe it or not, the Taniguchi couple would definitely like to hear such words in this situation.

In addition, Yujiro Sakai and Miyoko Kagawa also echoed their voices, and the two of them became even more radiant with flattery.

But it's not over yet.

Immediately afterwards, Ning Weimin also revealed his life experience as an orphan whose parents died young, saying that he grew up in a large courtyard in the capital.

Although he made a lot of money in China, until he went abroad, the place he lived in the capital was only a small bungalow of 19 square meters.

To use the toilet, take a bath, or use domestic water, you must go to public places.

If he wants to live comfortably in winter and summer in China, he can only go to foreign hotels and spend a lot of money to stay in a hotel room.

These things are even more unbelievable to Japanese ears.

And needless to say, this disparity also makes the Taniguchi couple more fully realize how lucky they are to live in Tokyo.

Who says their home is a rabbit warren?

The rich people in China live in worse places and their life trajectories are even more miserable.

Therefore, people's happiness is just a burst of enthusiasm. It doesn't matter how much they have. The key lies in who they compare with.

As long as you are better than others, you will be happy.

Otherwise, why would horror and disaster movies have so many fans?

To be honest, it's not for sensory stimulation, but to find psychological balance from other people's misfortune.

The most amazing thing is that Ning Weimin's use of his own hard life has an additional magical effect.

He actually aroused the emotional resonance of everyone present and brought the rhythm to the line of remembering the bitter and thinking of the sweet.

To be honest, even though Japan has become a first-class developed country during this period, the good days of the Japanese are indeed hard-won.

It was a result of being servile after the war, paying a huge price for sovereignty, and meeting the right time and place when the Korean War broke out.
