In October 1954, Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru began his visit to China, was warmly welcomed by the Chinese people, and held a meeting with *** and others. That night, ** held a welcome banquet in Huairen Hall, and the scene was lively and full of laughter.
However, just as *** picked up the wine glass and was about to collide with Nehru, the power suddenly went out, and the scene suddenly fell into darkness, and many people exclaimed again and again. Fortunately, the power outage did not last long, and under the emergency repair of the staff, Huairentang quickly returned to light. Nehru and others expressed their understanding, and they continued to clink glasses with Nehru, and the banquet continued in a peaceful and lively atmosphere. The sudden power outage at the time of the banquet of foreign leaders is a serious mistake in diplomatic etiquette, so the staff in charge of the banquet security has been anxious and waiting for accountability. But the strange thing is that after the banquet, ** did not mention this matter, but went all the way back to the West Flower Hall to continue working, as if nothing had happened.
At three o'clock in the morning, ** instructed the secretary to call the staff in charge of the banquet security. At this time, everyone was sleeping deeply, and suddenly they were called, and they all hurried over yawning and not knowing what was going on. After everyone arrived at the West Flower Hall, ** said: "The cause of this power outage must be found out as soon as possible, and we must find out which link has the problem." "The staff had been prepared for a long time and hurriedly handed in the report of the cause of the power outage. After reading it, I didn't say anything, but asked everyone: "Do you know why I came to you at this time?"."Everyone looked at each other, yes, ** should have criticized them after the banquet, why wait until this time to find them?
**Looking at everyone, he said earnestly: "If I criticized you at the time, you must have been mentally prepared, and the psychological tolerance is very strong, I said that the effect will not be very good, it is now three o'clock in the morning, you are sleeping, I called you over at this time, it will definitely leave a deep impression in your hearts, what to do in the future, I don't need to say more." "Only then did everyone know the reason, it turned out that *** was using this special method to let everyone remember the lesson more deeply, so that similar accidents could be avoided in the future. This is the performance of *** high emotional intelligence, if he can't control his emotions and reprimand the staff on the spot, the staff will only treat this accident as an ordinary accident, and the lesson is not profound, and choosing to deal with this matter at three o'clock in the morning can not only calm down, but also allow everyone to have a more profound lesson, killing two birds with one stone.
