Hello YCYCY,
This is the general security details of iMessage messages. The short answer is no but your friend would want to take additional steps to maintain privacy and not rely on iMessage alone. Many encrypted messaging platforms have been blocked there and some believe iMessage/FaceTime may be next on the list.

You most likely will not find anything specific to China from Apple about this but if you research you will find information from the international media and international watchdog groups.
Good luck. I hope this is helpful for you.
