Yes it would do FRA - PEK. If you have a 46 seat all business class config, assuming:
7 Crew
900 lbs payload in addition to the 46 pax (200 lbs per pax),
4 Additional Centre tanks
IAE V2527MA5 engines,
85% winds,
JAA 3% trip fuel,
ISA+10,
M0.80 cruise
FL410
Block time 9 hrs 15 mins.
Coming back though..... would have to be at 0.78M and you would be right on the limit. Block time is about 10:34. 85% winds is 41Kts on the nose.
However, if you considered the 319LR which is a much lighter ship than the ACJ..... .80 is possible.
