1 Introduction
As the world economy integration and the globalization tendency are strengthening increasingly, the international business activities are becoming more and more frequent. At the international background of China’s entry into WTO, people need to master the principles and skills of foreign business activities; the business negotiation is an important part of the foreign business activities; and business negotiation is economic activity through language, so its success depends largely on the application of language. In the process of negotiation, both sides want to maximize their own interests, so the expression and application of language of two sides have a far-reaching influence on negotiations. Appropriate language can promote the business negotiation smoothly. Being polite is most helpful in negotiating with appropriate language. Applying Politeness Principle to the study of commercial negotiation can help us do better in business negotiations. The use of politeness strategies can reduce the friction, moderate the environment of negotiation, and make both parties get win-win results.
