Why do Chinese people love to persuade people to drink?

Basically, when it comes to business or commercial interactions, Chinese people like to persuade people to drink (in fact, some high-end bureaus don't persuade people to drink), and there are often a few reasons for this. Firstly, people tend to feel that drunkenness is more spontaneous and chatty, so it's easier to talk about things. Secondly, the traditional Chinese spirit of hospitality, plus if there is something to ask for, it will feel that if you do not drink may be my poor care. Third, the Chinese people socializing is built on the dining and drinking culture, this culture has been y rooted in people's hearts, from ancient times to the present has not changed, which is also our country's characteristics.

And on the contrary, the western concept is "I may false some ask, you want to drink or not, if not, I do not force." The reason is "I respect your choice." In fact, I think some of the high-end business gatherings in China are pretty much like this, based on respect.

Besides business and commercial gatherings, it's all about friends.

At friends' gatherings at home and abroad, it's almost always the same, but to a different degree.

Westerners are basically saying that if you drink, I'll drink too, so I respect you and we can all have a good time. If someone doesn't drink, other people will also say drink a little bit, or have a drink, no harm, but everyone has a degree, won't let you feel too much. And every time westerners drink not someone to celebrate something then basically one person to buy a round, more harmonious.

In fact, the table culture is different, persuade the situation in fact, China and the West is similar, drinking, persuade a little bit is not a big problem, but still want to build on the basis of respect for both sides, happy to drink. If I am physically able, mentally able, and have nothing to do, I will drink if you don't persuade me. Sometimes I'm with B at home on Fridays to persuade each other to drink two cups, Saturday and Sunday will also call on three or five friends to talk about the joy of wine
