The "wine culture at table" of China (one)

If there is wine, there is wine culture. But different areas around the world, different wine culture. For example, the famous beer festival is celebrated every year in relative (different?) districts.

But what I want to say   talk about in this article is the "wine culture at table" in China, which I really really hate, and hope will finally be changed one day.

Why I don't simply describe it as "wine culture", but add "at table" later. That's because in China, once a gang of people gets together to have a dinner around a table, during which they will drink, the wine culture turns immediately turns into an evil demon.

That kind of dinner usually happens in the situation as like inviting business partners or government officials, receiving superiors, celebrating some good things, etc. And drinking turns serious at the first two situations I mentioned before.

During that kind of dinner, Chinese people like to exchange toasts, that sounds rational and polite, but things don't stop at the appropriate point, Chinese people always urge each other to drink. The conversation will act as this:
"President Wang, I'd like to propose a toast to you."
"Thanks, but I’ve drunk too much... "
"You are a three-bottle man! That means nothing to you!"
"I really drunk too much today, I have drunk two full glasses of wine and six bottles of beer."
"You are not drunk at all, you are clear-headed."
"Well, you drink up, and I will at my liberty."
"No, No, No, that's unfair! I drink up and you drink up."
"Impossible..."(He's thinking of excuses.)
"Why not, you're the most respected man here!"
"I am respected, so you should obey me. You should do as what i said. "

Obey is a very strong word. Listen to me might be better. If a manager says you should obey me, I would tell him, do you think I am your slave or something?

"The More respected, the more one should drink."
"Well, well, you drink up, and I will drink a finger wide depth."
..........
The dialogue sounds   has no end and seems/is  insignificant, but finally both will drink as much as possible. Because in this occasion, one's drinking capacity represent one's ability. Everybody wants to show his power, as animals cry out time after time to declare for its   their territory. They keep the powerful figures outside, and when they go back home, they throw up, suffer headache, stomachache, sleep without strength to take a shower.
