Banqueting forms an integral part of doing business. |
It is very fierce indeed, so only try a little bit (especially) if you have to go around a large banquet toasting everybody. |
It's like driving your car without any brakes, |
To show your appreciation of generosity you should not finish all the food. If you finish, the host might misinterpret that they have not provided enough. |
You could find that the real decision makers -- the bosses -- might well appear at the banquet just to see what you are like. |
