I have heard of the Shanghai ghettos in WWII, so my question is how much were Jewish people assimilated into Chinese society during the history of trade with China, anybody know?

The are no Chinese Jews nor Chinese ancestry .one must know that the Jewish people were defused almost in part of the world ,middle east ,north Africa and Europe in 70 ad because to escape the Romans persecution, .again in the Spanish Inquisition from the Church .No one Jew as far gone to the far east .And there is other reason that Jewish immigration were never happened in china ,because to be a Jew is not only one needs to become or accept as his or her faith the religion as but one must born Jew.All the Jew in the world never married other ethnic ,but their ethnic.,a Jew .That is the highlight credo of the Jewish religion .

Lul's answer is completely false. There is a small but thriving Jewish population in China which has been there for hundreds of years.

no idea.Chinese tend to stick to their traditional heritage and dont change about often.Even when they do change it will be within their own eg confucious, taoist, buddhist.Sometimes christian.But i have never heard of a sikh, muslim or certainly jewish chinese person.

Chinese is a race, a group of people born to a certain area. Jewish is a religion, something you believe. Anyone can be jewish, not everyone can be chinese. Really annoys me when people confuse judism as a race of people. It is a religion.
