I might give you some advice since a friend of mine who currently flying with one of the chinese carries.
If you wanna fly in China, You must prepare to stay in mainland for at least 8 years or more
, the pay for FO will be started from rmb$ 8000 to $28000. the pay for Capt is around $30000 to $60000. the bond is terrible. you have to pay more than one million if you wanna move to another airlines.
