Gloria and this article are not completely correct. The Australian plug fits, though the pins on the Chinese plug are thinner and 1 mm (0.039 in) longer. China also uses American/Japanese NEMA 1‐15 sockets (2 parallel flat pins) I've also seen UK plug near Hong Kong and round pin Euro plug. Some hotels have wall sockets that accept all 3. The voltage at a Chinese socket of any type is 220.
