If your site is not commercial, is information or non profit, you can still submit to the Yahoo Directory for free, otherwise you'll need to pay a yearly fee to be listed. Navigate to the appropriate category and then click on Suggest A Site.

Sohu.com - On Sohu's Add URL page, you can find some paid submission options to list your site in their directory:
It's at add.sohu.com

163.com - This massive portal offers paid submission and listing options here:

There are endless other ways to promote your site to Chinese users, but these are some of the most popular and effective options.
