CHINA , BEIJING: A Chinese official died of alcohol poisoning after dining with colleagues to celebrate his first day at work. 

Zhong Xiefei, who had just been named deputy chief of Qianjiang township in Laibin city in the central Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region died of excessive drinking. 

Seven other officials who drank with him have been fired, the state-run China News Service reported. 

Zhong showed up for work on April 9 and began to drink rice wine during lunch with other provincial and county-level officials. That night Zhong's family found him asleep and snoring loudly, but saw nothing to suggest he was excessively drunk. He was found dead the next morning. 

District officials met on Monday to discuss the incident and figure out ways to discipline other officials involved. 

Despite the campaign, drinking remains customary at many official lunches and dinners.
