How many pieces are suitable for gifts? 1

Two or four. Yes, what men mean.

Gift-giving skills:

First, don't give too expensive gifts. Under normal circumstances, the choice of gifts should not be too expensive, otherwise it will bring unnecessary trouble to the leaders. But it can't be too light. Things that are too light are more difficult to express. Generally speaking, the value of the gift is about 10% of the recipient's monthly salary, so the value of the gift will not be too heavy.

Second, don't choose the wrong gift-giving time. Express sincere thanks to the leaders, and it is best to use festive occasions or leaders' birthday parties to salute and avoid abrupt gifts. Otherwise, it is easy for leaders to doubt the motivation of giving gifts, and the result is counterproductive.

Third, don't send necessities. Pay attention to the word "gift" rather than "product" when giving gifts to leaders. Gift represents the mind, and goods represent the object. As long as you can express yourself. Therefore, ordinary necessities and durable consumer goods, such as rice cookers and mp3 players, are not suitable for giving away. If the leader likes reading, it is a good gift to choose a set of hardcover books with collectible value.

Give gifts and talk:

Tip 1: The purpose of giving gifts must be clearly expressed. Whether it is emotional communication or other gift-giving purposes, you have to express your purpose clearly. Don't give muddled gifts, so others will be puzzled and more likely to be rejected.

Secret 2: Modesty and sincerity. Giving a gift is to let the recipient feel your sincerity and blessing. If you give gifts with that arrogant attitude, most people will not accept them, especially for leaders. Even if the leader praises you, show humility and thank you.

Tip 3: Speak elegantly and pay attention to tone, speed and wording. Let the receiver feel your true feelings and sincerity, and feel happy and moved by what you have done. Behave gracefully and don't sneak gifts under the table or in any corner.

It is appropriate to send some gifts. No matter whether it is a gift for the New Year or a holiday, it is usually an even number, two or four. Of course, ordinary friends can send a small gift as a souvenir, as well as birthdays! But you must pay attention to this even number during the holiday!

What four things can't be given as Chinese New Year gifts?

First, giving gifts to elders and the elderly is the most taboo.

People in China attach importance to homophony, and they like to please others.

Because the bell is homophonic with "final", it is a taboo in gift giving. Especially when giving gifts to elders and the elderly, never send clocks and watches, lest people think of "death" and mistakenly think that this is a curse to the elderly.

The intention of giving gifts, if misunderstood, can not only deepen feelings and enhance interpersonal relationships, but also be counterproductive, annoying and repugnant.

Second, send lovers, lovers, not pears and umbrellas.

The best gift for lovers is to wish them sweet feelings and a good marriage for a hundred years.

Even if the gift is mainly practical and has no auspicious meaning, it is understandable. But don't give gifts that suggest an unfavorable emotional marriage.

For example, in daily life, umbrellas and parasols are essential daily necessities, and the probability of upgrading is relatively high. But because the sound of "umbrella" is the same as "parting", it means parting, and it is definitely not suitable as a gift for couples and couples.

For another example, sending fruit is both practical and beautiful, and it is very common as a gift when visiting relatives and friends. But not all fruits are suitable for take-away.

If apple means peace, it can be given to almost everyone; Peach, known as longevity peach, is very suitable for the elderly; Banana, homophonic "intersection", is conducive to interpersonal relationships and is very suitable for relatives and friends.

But some fruits are not suitable, especially pears, because "pears" and "separation" are homophonic, so they are not suitable for couples to send.

But pears are homophonic with "Li", which means separation. Don't give them to couples or couples.

Third, hats are hardly suitable for everyone.

Perhaps there were too many sayings about hats in the old society, such as filial piety hats (when an elder died, later generations asked for Dai Xiao hats, indicating that there was a funeral at home), sad hats and cuckolders (as the saying goes, a wife having an affair and cheating on others is regarded as the biggest insult to people), and so on. Therefore, even if there is a "tube hat" that symbolizes official luck, it cannot dilute the custom taboo that hats are not suitable as gifts.

Fourth, these flowers and green plants can't be given away.

The history of sending flowers as gifts cannot be said to be very long and universal. However, with the concept of green living deeply rooted in people's hearts, green plants and flowers have become the choice of many people as gifts, especially when they are happy to move to a new house, celebrate festivals or visit patients.

However, prickly green plants, such as cactus and cactus, have hidden dangers in geomantic omen and are not suitable as gifts.

Giving people chrysanthemums is even more taboo, because in people's impression, chrysanthemums are used to commemorate the dead.
