A US citizen can live out of the country indefinitely and will not loose their citizenship. Make sure you can legally can live in China.

I am pretty sure that the China Government will not allow anyone who is not Chinese to have permanent residence . Although if you donate several million dollars like some German company executives have done they will give you a permanent green card. I saw it on the news when I visited there a couple of years ago.

Pretty soon China will own USA at the rate we're giving it away. Then, all those Illegal Mexicans will need to learn Chinese or go HOME. But I just cannot imagine the mentality who would make a conscious decision to permanently want to LIVE in China.
5 :
It is very difficult to lose your US citizenship. You do not have to live in the US ever again, and you may still keep it.
6 :

7 :

A USA citizen can live his whole life in China without ever setting foot in America again and retain their citizenship. America does not give up it's citizens easily. Lee Harvey Oswald immigrated to Russia, denounced his citizenship, then came back to the states and the rest is history. Even he couldn't renounce his citizenship and he was an avowed communist during the height of the cold war. If one becomes a citizen of another country, even pledging to that country, rarely, if ever will America yank their citizenship. That is why some Americans have duel citizenship. Peace Jim
