I have absolutely no experience and/or knowledge about Chinese and its
typesetting, but perhaps something like
    \definedfont[SimplifiedChineseBold at 48pt] could work?

Btw: Is there any reason for not using XeTeX (or LuaTeX in the future)
for Chinese? (To be honest: I have absolutely no idea whether it works
and how good it works if at all, but I would expect less problems
there.)
