You don't need them to lose to the Heavenly Kingdom in order to open the Han up to the world, the only thing that needs to happen is they need to be moved off of Isolationism - if GB isn't doing it in the earlygame you'll have to force open their market by yourself, otherwise all "Law Commitment" Treaty Articles will have a massive -100 Malus to their acceptance.
After that (especially if you yourself start on Homesteading), you just have to coach China through their modernisation. Passing No Migration Controls is easy, but you'll likely have to force them to pass Homesteading, otherwise the peasants will still be trapped.
Afterwards, there are other laws you can pass to make China more exploitable, but these are a tiny bit gimmicky. You can help them pass Public Schools, and this has the mixed effect of making the AI spend a lot more on bureaucracy, and therefore putting them at greater risk of bankrupting, while also meaning that the Han peasants that emigrate from China will be more literate themselves, you can also help them pass Right of Assembly to improve their tech spread, a better economic structure law so that your regional headquarters have more of an investment pool to use, etc.
Law Commitments are my favourite thing of the patch!

I prefer dealing with the rest of the world and once they open up I beg for the investments rights and flood China with my investments which makes my companies incredibly rich
