As I know, you don't need a visa for entering China. You can just bring passport and enough travel fees.

Thanks for the reply but I was hoping for a direct response from the China consolate. The consulate has other web pages with other Guayaquil information, like an address on Calle A Entre B y C Detras del World Trade Center in Guayaquil. I've sent several emails and can't get a response from them.
