To be comfortable on the way, she put on her favorite jeans, and an ordinary jacket. Fourteen hours later, four perfectly dressed Japanese gentlemen greeted her at the airport. Smiling and bowing low, they handed her their business cards. With her bag in one hand, Geri took their cards with the other. She thanked them, looked at the cards, and put them into her pocket. She then gave them her card.After arriving at the hotel, they invited Geri to tea in a room. While drinking tea, the gentlemen gave her a small gift. She opened it quickly. She was happy with it and she shouted, “Oh, it’s beautiful! Then she gave each of the gentlemen a hug.At this point, the four Japanese gentlemen stood up, bowing only very slightly, said “Sayonam” and quickly left. Poor Geri was left stunned. What did she do wrong?Everything! Her jeans was the first mistake. You’re not supposed to meet customers casually (随意地） dressed in Japan. The second mistake was Geri’s way of treating the business cards. I nJapan, the business card is always given and accepted respectfully with both hands. However, Geri accepted them with a hand. Besides, Geri also made another mistake. In Japan, people use business cards to start a conversation. You look at each other’s ca rds and talk with each other and do not put their cards away until they gently and respectfully put yours in a proper place. It was awful of Geri to put the cards into the pocket casually. The fourth mistake was that Geri should not have opened the gift in front of the four gentlemen, because it would be embarrassing to discover the gift they gave was not as nice as the one they received. What was worse, Geri hadn’t even given them a gift!()34.
