What I think you are asking is an a question based on the idea "you could dig down straight through to China".
The term you are looking for is "antipode" which is the point on the opposite side of the Earth as us.
If you took a map of the world and flipped it over, you'll get a general idea of where your antipode is located:

But if you want to find out for sure, take a look here:

Basically, the antipode of the US is in the middle of the Indian Ocean
Now, if you just went straight through the Northern Hemisphere (i.e. did not go past the equator) you might end up in China, but take a look at the maps and you'll have a better idea.

What does that mean? Who is "us"? China isn't under anyone. They are their own sovereign nation. The status of Taiwan is somewhat contested, but Hong Kong and Macau now belong to China again (after many years of colonial rule).

no, china is by it own. Hong Kong used to be under British but it was given back to China in 1997

A one party state rule yes, but the process of making laws is a little more complex than that.
