I've read some interesting things about the Chinese Catholic Church, first one is that they pretty much were left out of Vatican II.
Many of them only started the new mass in the 1990s.

BEIJING — Tensions between Beijing and the Vatican are mounting after Chinese authorities detained an outspoken Catholic bishop who has defied state control of the church, a move that highlights the Communist Party’s deep mistrust of religious organizations.

Bishop Thaddeus Ma Daqin was whisked away just hours after he announced his resignation from the leadership of the Patriotic Catholic Association, or PCA, the government body that controls China’s state-sanctioned version of the Catholic Church, according to two people close to the PCA.

I understand that now the Chinese authorities have ordered a "re-education" of all priests and religous of the Shanghai diocese.

Let's pray for him that he will be faithful to the gospel in this difficult time.
