But it can't be done. Figure out what is the most important to your and your team, it doesnn't matter which team you are on, the US team or the chinese team. Then set the right expection. In cross-team situation, negative surprise due to misaligned goals and wrong expections are the most demaging thing for you. Then during meeting/negoctiation phase, make sure stay focus on the issues, don't take anything personal.For the detailed negotiation strategies, there are loads of books for that.
