The position of "host": the host is the first rank of the guest, that is, the highest position of the guest or the most distinguished person to accompany the wine. It's in front of the front door.
The main function is basically the owner of the manor, grasping the time of this banquet and the degree of drinking.
"Co-pilot" position: Co-pilot is the second priority of the guests and the second most distinguished person among the guests. The position is opposite to the main guard, that is, the back is to the gate.
Traditionally, this position should be held by the person who pays the bill. This position is more about driving guests to drink.
"Guest of honor" position: the guest of honor is the first guest, and it is the place where the highest-ranking or most distinguished guests do it. The position is on the right hand side of the "main guard".
The banquet seating is "respect the east" and "respect the gate".
If it is a round table, the host and guests face the gate. In terms of the distance from the host and guest, the closer the host and guest are, the more respected they are. At the same distance, the left side is more respected than the right side.
If it is a square table, if there is a seat facing the gate, the seat on the right side of the gate is the host and guest. If it is not facing the gate, the right seat on the east side is the chief.
If it is a big banquet, the arrangement between tables should pay attention to the chief, with 2, 4 and 6 seats on the left and 3, 5 and 7 seats on the right. According to the identity and status of the host and guests, relatives and friends should sit separately.
