if you have a citibank acount in China. you can receive your salary from US free of bank charges if the employer bank is also citibank.
CMB and ICBC has foreign currency deposits. My wife get's paid in USD from France to her ICBC account, all she needs to do each month is go online and transfer it to her main ICBC account for withdrawal. I think if you want a US bank account you will need to use a US address such as a family member or trusted friend where you can recieve the card/account information.
