I'm using xelatex for I have to deal with Chinese characters. However, something weired bothers me.
usepackage{xeCJK}
...
The following command has no bold effect:
textbf{fontspec{SimSun} 中文}
If this is because SimSun have no bold shape, the following problem is much more weired:
{fontspec{STXinwei} 中文}
textbf{fontspec{STXinwei} 中文}
The former command shows Chinese characters in default font but the latter shows them in STXinwei!
I am using linux and this is my fc-list output
/path to my font/ SimSun 宋体:style=regular
/path to my font/ STXinwei 华文新魏:style =regular
fonts xetex

Welcome to TeX.SX! Please help us to help you and add a minimal working example (MWE) that illustrates your problem. It will be much easier for us to reproduce your situation and find out what the issue is when we see compilable code, starting withdocumentclass{...}and ending withend{document}.

Check the log file. In general fontspec tells you if it can't create a variant like bold.

Using textbf can not give you actual bold font in Chinese, there has to be a redesigned bold font for you to use.
Please refer to this article which explains the problem in its second section.
