“Who will guarantee safe passage of those tankers from the Persian Gulf to Shanghai? “

If China was NOT building Blue Water naval ships at 5 times the pace of the US, I would say: Good Question!

But OBVIOUSLY China knows they need to protect their shipping lanes, and with their Hypersonics, that will not be a difficult thing to do.
