Your name should appear on the ticket exactly as it's in the passport. To make it simpler:
First name on the ticket = first name on passport
Last name on ticket = last name on passport
it doesn't matter what is your english name or your nick name, what matters is what is written on the passport in english.
So, here's an example of a Chinese passport (I just googled) so the name should be WANG WENYI on the ticket. Remember that the airline employee at the counter or the security guy at the checkpoint just want to see that it fits.
To be on the safe side (since I'm picky) call the airline and request to know whether or not your Chinese name (in the passport below JILIN) should appear on the ticket. Every call you make to the airlines - make sure they document it in the PNR (just in case something goes wrong).
