Really hard to tell. Looks sorta like a Bell to me.

Didn't Bell start some manufacturing in the PRC?  I recall the PRC has been buying Bells for years.  Not sure if they have a local "clone".  Yet.

Dunno, it has that jet ranger (long ranger, etc) look, and skids.

There are not many helicopters with skids in China. Some kind AC311 probably. My personal stereotype of these domestic helicopters using skids in China is that they are basically derived from the French Aérospatiale Gazelle (SA-342L). When I search these helicopter, I find that they just drove this to the Tibet - I bet the French never think the improve of SA-342L could be used in this way.

However, and not to be an April Fool's joke, on my way to some kind of social gathering this afternoon, I saw a helicopter land for the first time on the helipad on the roof of a hospital near my home. This hospital has had this helipad for as long as I can remember, but I've never seen or heard of it being used. Pray for that guy
