In general issue is not with connectivity to China but with
GFW (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Firewall), So you would need
some VPS inside china, unfortunately AFAIK all VPS inside Hong Kong are
outside of GFW so it is still posible it would not help.

But in our company we have VPS inside GFW (for our chinese customers),
so maybe I could ask if they dont mind to provide it for dub
mirror purpose
