You asked the magic question there my friend.

There is a myth though that the China is 'one' or that the CCP is all of one mind.

If the PRC ended tomorrow..we'd have 20+ new nations in the UN...If Indonesia fragments....golly....but the rulers of the PRC are all concerned with their own power, wealth, and indeed lives....they are all united in that focus......and because the median age is 90+ ( or close to it) they don't have much to lose.....that's the scary part.....
