@gswu , thank you for your responses.
I am assuming that
1. You are using Foreign Earned Income Exclusion ( FEIE -- form 2555 ) to exclude the maximum allowed wages to be excluded;
2. Using one form 1116 ( General category ) claiming FTC on the unexcluded wages.
3. You are using a second form 1116 ( Passive Category ) claiming FTC for Dividend + Rental foreign income
Let me go back and refresh my memory on China Tax treaty and come back a bit later
