That is a possibility as well though will only get you the early design iterations and not the in-war ones.  Mind you, one could always then have the designs take on their own independent development path.

Possibly could have worked up until June 1941 when Germany invaded the USSR, actually they could have rearmed China, made use of Chinese industry in Manchuria and coordinated the invasion of the USSR with Nationalist China.

This drives the possibility of a neutral Japan or even an allied Japan if Japan US relation could have been repaired.  Without Pearl Harbour would the US have joined the war?

Not about Germany, but related:

"G.50 production attempts in China

Italians were for some time trying to negotiate with Chinese authorities about opening an aviation production factory in China. After initial negotiations in June 1934, the Chinese signed a contract with the Aeronautico Italiano per la China (Aerocina). This company was owned by the Italian Government in conjunction with Caproni, Breda, Fiat and SIAI. According to this contract, the Italians were to build the SINAW (Sino-Italian National Aircraft Works) factory in Nanchang. With this agreement, the Italians were to provide tools and machines necessary for the factory to work. The head of the soon-to-be factory was the Italian Luigi Acampora and the Director was General Chu Lin. The production of the first operational aircraft was to begin from July 1937 on and all Italian personnel were to return to Italy after five years of cooperation.

The SINAW officially started production in November 1936 with six Savoia-Marchetti SM.81B bombers. Future plans included production of 30 Breda Ba.65s and 50 Fiat G.50s. The factory was slightly damaged during the Japanese bombing of Nanchang on the 20th October 1937. By November the Italian Government made a decision to discontinue any further cooperation and stopped all future deliveries of equipment and materials. This was done mostly due to Japanese military actions and the poor cooperation of the Chinese. By early December 1937, all Italian personnel returned home, and the deal with the Chinese was abandoned without a single G.50 being built."

Cool.  A Chinese G.50 would look good.

Story:
Rather than sell them German material, why not teach them how to make German material (in the same way they taught them how to form German-style units)?
