I need to submit a chinese web site to chinese search engines and directories.

I have a mate that know the chinese languige but doesn't know web marketing, so I need to find some resources.

Do you can suggest me some resources that can help me in this adventure?

You've come to the right forum. ;)
My first suggestion for you would be to dig in and start reading this forum. It's probably one of the best sources of information you can find on this topic. Start out with our Library [webmasterworld.com], and then make use of the site search to dig up specific information that you need.

For general info about China's market take a look at the CNNIC English website [cnnic.net.cn]. If you're still stuck then you can post more specific questions.
