The way China keeps the Yuan devalued is by buying American dollars/bonds. We keep spending too much, thus printing more of them. What the Fed did recently with its quantitative easing was to try and cause a little inflation which would bring the value of the USD down slightly which when China owns trillions worth of USD, means a big hit. It's a matter of give and take.

1995-2005 China had fixed its Yuan - USD exchange rate by printing money and increasing its currency reserve to match the 1995 USD-Yuan level. It restricts the amount of foreign assets that locals can invest in.
