The story of Zhou Enlai
Story 1: "Yes, casting pearls before swine"
During the Chongqing negotiations from 65438 to 0945, the negotiators of the Kuomintang government could not accept the peace agreement proposed by Zhou Enlai as the chief negotiator. An official growled angrily at our representative, "Talk to the cow!" Zhou Enlai calmly replied, "Yes, casting pearls before swine."
-The Kuomintang official said that "casting pearls before swine" meant to belittle the level of negotiators of the * * * production party, but Zhou Enlai returned the original words, only pausing after the word "right" and turning them into two broken sentences, comparing the remarks of Kuomintang officials to "casting pearls before swine". You didn't say anything?
Story 2: Prostitutes in China
A western reporter asked Premier Zhou: "Excuse me, Mr. Premier, are there any prostitutes in China now?" Many people wonder: how to ask such a question? What everyone cares about is Premier Zhou's answer. Premier Zhou said affirmatively, "Yes!" There was an uproar and a lot of discussion. Premier Zhou saw everyone's doubts and added: "The prostitutes in China are in Taiwan Province Province, China." Suddenly the applause thundered.
-This reporter's question is very malicious. He designed a trap for Premier Zhou to drill. After the liberation of China, all brothels in the mainland were closed, and the original prostitutes have been transformed into self-reliant workers. The reporter thought: If you ask "Are there any prostitutes in China", Zhou Enlai will definitely say "No". Once you really answer like this, you will fall into his trap, and he will immediately say that "there are prostitutes in Taiwan Province Province". At this time, you can't say "Taiwan Province Province is not the territory of China". This is the malice of this question. Of course, Premier Zhou saw through his tricks at a glance. This answer not only saw through the sinister intention of splitting China's territory, but also reflected the contrast of good social atmosphere between the mainland and Taiwan Province Province. Alas, Premier Zhou is very thoughtful in his consideration of the problem, and at the same time, he reacts so quickly. It's hard not to admire him!
Story 3: China Road
Foreign journalists asked Premier Zhou Enlai with malicious intent: "In China, it is obvious that people take the road, why is it called' road'?" Without thinking, Premier Zhou replied, "We are taking the Marxist road, which is called the road for short."
The reporter's original intention is to compare China people to cattle and horses, and take the same road as cattle. If you really answer him from the source of the name "Lu", even if it is correct, it is meaningless. Premier Zhou interpreted the word "horse" as Marxism, which was probably unexpected by this reporter.
Story 4: uphill
When the American delegation visited China, an official once said in front of Premier Zhou: "China people like to walk with their heads down, while we Americans always walk with our heads held high." When this language came out, it surprised everyone. Premier Zhou took his time and said with a smile, "This is not surprising. Because we in China like to go uphill, and you Americans like to go downhill. "
-The words of American officials obviously contain a great insult to the people of China. The China staff present were very angry, but due to the diplomatic situation, it was difficult to strongly reprimand the other side for its rudeness. If you submit to humiliation and humiliate the other side, what national prestige is there? Premier Zhou's answer taught Americans what it means to be both rigid and flexible, and ultimately it was the Americans themselves who were embarrassed and embarrassed.
Story 5: Anti-American loot
An American journalist happened to see an American Parker pen on Premier Zhou's desk. The reporter asked in a somewhat ironic tone: "Excuse me, Prime Minister, why do you China people use our pens made in the United States?" Premier Zhou said humorously: "This pen is a long story. This is an anti-American souvenir from a North Korean friend. I refuse to accept worthless rewards. Korean friends said, as a souvenir. I thought it was very meaningful, so I left this pen in your country. " Hearing this, the American reporter suddenly became speechless.
-What do you mean by shooting yourself in the foot? This is a typical case. The reporter's original intention was to dig at Premier Zhou: Why can't you China people even produce better pens and import them from our United States? As a result, Premier Zhou said it was a trophy of the Korean battlefield, which made the reporter lose face. Also, there is no way to compare with Premier Zhou.
Story 6: How much money does China have?
A western reporter said, "How much money does the People's Bank of China have?" Zhou Enlai said euphemistically, "What about the monetary funds of the People's Bank of China? And 18 yuan 8 cents and 8 minutes. " Seeing that everyone was puzzled, he explained: "The People's Bank of China issued 10 kinds of primary and secondary RMB, with denominations of 10 yuan, 5 yuan, 2 yuan, L yuan, 5 cents, 2 cents, and 1 minute, totaling 18 yuan. ...
-Premier Zhou held a press conference to introduce China's achievements in construction. There are two possibilities for this reporter to ask such a question. One is to laugh at China's poverty, poor strength and empty treasury; One is to spy on China's economic intelligence. Premier Zhou also showed a witty and humorous manner in high-level diplomatic occasions, which left a deep impression on people. How can such a question be prepared in advance? How to do without eloquence and quick thinking?
Story 7: How many toilets are there in China?
At the beginning of the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), Premier Zhou Enlai held a press conference. When a foreign reporter defiantly asked "How many toilets are there in new China", Premier Zhou replied: "Two." In the reporter's amazing eyes, the Prime Minister continued: "A men's toilet, a women's toilet!" Suddenly there was laughter, and the tense atmosphere relaxed.
-Someone fanned the flames and tried to tease you with clever words, putting you in an awkward position. If the intention is bad and excessive, humor can be used as a weapon to fight back. This is a wonderful "diplomatic language" answer, although it is a way called sophistry, but on that occasion, Premier Zhou's answer to that question is necessary! The humorous material is best based on the other person's topic, so that it can not only reap the consequences, but also unconsciously transfer the embarrassment to the other person.
