It's surprisingly easy to get a teaching job in the PRC and stay for an extended period of time. And I've seen several job postings for CS teachers that are waiting to be filled (WeChat is extremely handy for a job search). From what I understand the pay and work hours are much better for teachers than they would be at a tech company.
Permanent residence is another matter. The good news is that it is becoming easier to get in some municipalities (basically Shanghai). We'll see how long it takes to expand to the rest of the country.
The better way is to finish PhD or MsC in your country, then go to China. Chinese schools are oriented toward Chinese people and their customs. But they value a high quality foreign experts. You can go there as a postdoc, even for 6 years, and if you like it, you can stay there at university or a company.
OK, but I am not sure whether you can further study in China in English. Unless you know Mandarin very well.
Just as an example there are 32 Graduate level programs taught in English at Tsinghua, and as far as I am aware most universities of a certain stature have programs taught in English (of varying quality) and will also have classes to teach the Chinese language to international students.
There are also USA and UK universities that have partnered with Chinese universities that offer many programs taught in English, like Xi'an Jiaotong Liverpool University and New York University: Shanghai.
