Compatriot Zhang Jian could fare no better against Wang Hao, also losing 3-0.
Zhan then paired up up with Yang Zi but also lost 3-0 to Zhang Jike and Wang Hao with a comprehensive 11-8, 11-9, 11-3 defeat.
China march on to the semifinals while Singapore's men end their campaign, at least having gone stage further than the 2008 Games in Beijing.
