Cold reading
Description
Book Introduction
Practical speaking skills that can be used immediately in all human relationships
“Everyone unconditionally trusts and follows you!”
'Cold Reading' is a term that refers to acting without a script or screenplay, and is a technique for building trust and capturing the heart of the other person.
It refers to an advanced psychological technique that brings about the desired results in any situation or with any opponent.
A person who does cold reading is called a 'cold reader'.
A cold reader can see through the minds of others without knowing anything about them, making them completely trust him.
The people we easily trust and follow are typical cold leaders.
For example, insurance salesmen, sales masters, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, mentalists, fortune tellers, magicians, pastors, monks, and politicians can be considered experts in cold reading.
Once you master cold reading, you can become a master of persuasion in very simple and trivial ways.
This book contains all the methods to turn a reader into a cold reader.
It will instill confidence in people who are always intimidated because they cannot read others' minds or who often meet strangers.
We reveal practical cold reading techniques that can be applied to all aspects of life that require communication, including business, sales, service, sales, meetings, presentations, job hunting, interviews, dating, and club activities.

Appendix_Terms to Know to Capture Your Opponent's Heart
Into the book
Let's say you're asking someone you like out on a date.
How can we stop saying "NO"? The answer is very simple.
You just have to ask the question in a way that the other person can't say 'NO'.
The double bind technique makes this possible.
“Shall we have a meal together, or would you like to have a drink?”
“I don’t have much time….”
“Then let’s just have a cup of tea.”
“Huh? What… a cup of tea or something…”
If someone asks, “Do you have time today?” you have the option to decline by saying, “No.”
But it seems a bit out of the blue to suddenly answer “No” when someone asks you in a familiar way, “Would you like to have a meal together or a drink?”
Besides, answering “NO” is grammatically awkward.
Even if you think about it logically, if you were asked which of the two proposals you prefer, you can't say "no."
---pp.35-36
The same goes for 'voice phishing'.
Scammers also use double bind when they randomly call strangers to get their passwords or authentication numbers.
“Hello, customer.
My name is ××× from ×× Bank, ×× Branch.
We are very sorry, but due to a computer error on our end last month, 300,000 won was withdrawn from your account.
“I’m about to deposit the money, but I’m contacting you to double-check the contract number.”
“Contract number…?”
“Oh, yes.
If you can’t remember your contract number, you can check it with your password….”
“Really? You know the password…
“It’s ××××.”
In this conversation, the scammer also cleverly uses the double bind principle.
---pp.37-38
Since the service and sales industries rely on capturing customers within a very short period of time, it is appropriate to first explain how to observe and judge the most noticeable aspects.
Let's say a young male customer just walked into your store.
This guest is carrying a black bag on his left shoulder.
So, you should never approach a guest to their left and say, “Welcome.”
Instead, try approaching the right side where nothing is heard and offering a quick hello.
Then the customer will immediately react to you.
---pp.139-140
It is a language trick to catch your lover's infidelity.
Multiple implications can also be used to uncover lies.
Me: (in passing) Did anything interesting happen yesterday? (MI)
Lover: No, not really.
What about you?
Me: I'm just like that too.
If you have a lover who has nothing to be offended by, your words will only sound like small talk, like, "Isn't there something fun to do?"
So, I answered indifferently, “No, not really.”
But what if you really spent time with someone else yesterday?
Me: (in passing) Did anything interesting happen yesterday? (MI)
Lover: Huh? Why?
Me: I just wanted to know what happened.
Lover: Not really.
Nothing happened.
It could have been just passed over as a passing chat, but instead, he takes a defensive stance and says, “Huh? Why?”
At this point, it is impossible to answer naturally with Yes or No.
That's understandable, because to the other person, your question won't sound like everyday small talk, but more like, "You're acting a little strange today."
People who feel no remorse at all usually answer, “No, not really,” and then ask, “What about you?”
On the other hand, people who are upset about something tend to want to change the subject if possible, so they cannot ask, “What about you?”
Isn't this a technique that you can learn without any harm?

Publisher's Review
The magical art of speaking that captures the hearts of the people
“Anyone can become a ‘cold reading’ expert!”
─How to make people believe that you made meju with red beans
Cold reading has the magical power to make the other person reveal their secrets and trust the cold reader's words unconditionally.
As we all know from experience, once a relationship of trust is formed, it becomes easy to trust whatever the other person says or does.
Even the so-called saying, “Make soybean paste with red beans” is believed.
In other words, if you build trust through cold reading, the rest will flow 'as you wish'.
Cold reading is a fascinating and fascinating way to disguise lies as truth, but that's not all.
Above all, it is also the best psychological technique that can be of help to people who lack confidence in interpersonal relationships or who have repeated failures.
However, I warn that if anyone were to master cold reading and attempt to use it maliciously, such attempts would inevitably fail.
After all, in order to steal someone's heart, respect and consideration for them come first.
─A 'dangerous' technique that can easily control your opponent.
As you go through life, you meet people you trust, but you also meet people you don't trust for some reason.
However, the other party is also making judgments about this ‘belief’.
We know that having sincerity does not necessarily mean that we can give 'trust'.
If you simply lack the technical skills to gain trust in your relationships, cold reading can be a definite help.
The reality of cold reading is much more sophisticated and difficult than what's described in the book, but you'll experience some results simply by following the book's instructions.
Whether your goal is to get a project you worked on all night approved, sell a car worth tens of millions of won, or win over a crush, the process of opening someone's heart is not much different from the process of practicing cold reading.
─A 'tangible' technology that can be used right now
Cold reading is easy for anyone to follow and use.
On the other hand, it means that you can easily get hurt.
This book introduces a variety of practical techniques that can be useful when persuading others.
If you use this technique in reverse, you will not be affected by your opponent's cold reading.
It specifically explains practical techniques that can be applied immediately to all human relationships in daily life, such as 'Pattern Interruptions', a method to turn around an unfavorable negotiation in one go, 'Dynamic Forking', which instantly wins over a customer who is not interested in the product, 'Subtle Questions', which is an answer that will pass a job interview, 'Subtlety', which will help you conduct a successful presentation, 'Congruecy', a fortune teller's technique to open a customer's wallet, 'Stock Spiel', which makes it easy to find out information about the other person, 'Multiple Implication', a secret to detecting a lover's infidelity, and 'Time Misdirection', a method to escape a crisis where you almost got caught cheating.
