How to arrange seats when treating guests?

When entertaining guests at a dining table, generally the host will sit facing the door (or with the back against the wall or the counter), the deputy host will sit opposite the host, and guest No. 1 will sit opposite the host. Guest No. 2 is on the right hand of the main escort, guest No. 3 is on the right hand of the deputy main escort, guest No. 4 is on the left hand of the deputy main escort, and the rest are optional. The positions of the dining table are basically these, and the four positions of "host companion", "host guest", "auxiliary companion" and "deputy guest of honor" are basically the same. The above positions of the host and companion are based on ordinary banquets. If the scene has special factors, it should be determined based on the situation. \x0d\\x0d\If there are many people, you can refer to the following rules:\x0d\\x0d\1. "Host companion" position: The host companion is the first person in the party who is treating the guests, that is, the person with the highest position in the treat, or The most distinguished person to accompany a drink. The location is in front of the door. The main function is basically the owner of the village, controlling the time of the banquet, the level of drinking, etc. \x0d\\x0d\2. The position of "Vice-accompany": The Assistant-accompany is the second-ranked person of the party that entertains guests, and is the second most distinguished person among the guests. The location is opposite the host, that is, facing away from the door. This location is more about driving guests to drink. \x0d\\x0d\3. "Escort" position: This position is not available in some places. It is located second to the right of the main escort. His main function is to accompany the host to the left and right, sandwiching the "guest of honor" in the middle for easy care. \x0d\\x0d\4. "Host guest" position: The guest of honor is the first position on the guest's side. It is the place where the person with the highest position or the most distinguished status among the guests takes the place. The location is on the right side of the "main companion". \x0d\\x0d\5. The "Deputy Guest of Honor" position: It is the second place on the guest's side. The location is to the left of the "main companion". \x0d\\x0d\6. "Three guests" position: The deputy guest is the third guest of the guest. The location is to the right of the "Vice Assistant". \x0d\\x0d\7. "Four guests" position: The deputy guest is the fourth guest on the guest side. The location is to the left of the "Vice Assistant". \x0d\\x0d\It can be seen from the above that the entire position is based on the confirmation of the "main companion" position. So how to confirm the position of "host companion"? There are two ways. One is the placement of napkins. In general, it is difficult to distinguish napkins in terms of shape due to the different folding methods of napkins in different places. But the napkin of the main companion has the highest fold, or the color of the napkin in the main position is different from the others. The second is chopsticks. In more formal hotels, there are two pairs of chopsticks for the main and second-hand positions, commonly known as "public chopsticks"
