Do people in China (Mainland not Taiwan) play American pool or mostly Chinese 8-ball?
I grew up in Xiamen. Before 2018, most pool halls are American pool, and after that year, Chinese 8-ball started to gain much more popularity. But I would say Fujian province (in the cities Xiamen, Zhangzhou, Quanzhou) and Shanghai are the two biggest American pool hubs in China (mainland). Shanghai has a successful american pool hall chain called Yuan8, and it now has a location in Xiamen as well. Most pool halls in Xiamen are a mix of American and Chinese 8-ball tables, favoring Chinese version.
What name brands pool cue are popular (aka sell good) over there?
There are so many. Zen cue 仁杆 is the Chanel in all pool cue brands. I personally use a Fury (威利) butt and a Cueless (李斯)butt. Both brands I like and are affordable and sell(I assume) well. I got the cuelees phantom sword back home for 4800cny = 700usd. They also sell on seybert's but much more expensive https://seyberts.com/collections/cu...shark-skin-wrap-ls-b03?variant=43874675785926

Chalk brands

I have been using Magic chalk for awhile and it seems that my table get so dirty, I dont chalk every shot, is this a dirty chalk?

Dr Dave's most interesting info on Magic Chalk is on his website where he was impressed in how Magic Chalk prevented miscues. This is just a couple snippets from that webpage:
Concerning the “number of hits until miscue,” Silver Cup was very similar to Master (flag and pre-flag) and Lava. However, the Magic Chalk was off the charts!!! That stuff really remains effective on the tip for a long time!​
and
To me, here’s the bottom line: If you chalk before every shot, the type of chalk doesn’t seem to make much difference. However, if you forget to chalk, or don’t like to chalk often, or don’t chalk effectively, and if you miscue often, then you might prefer one of the chalks that remains effective on the tip longer. Magic Chalk still seems to be the best in this category (with Kamui 2nd best, and Blue Diamond also good).​
