What did maps from China look like around then? I assume they'd center their continent somehow

That's a Pacific-centered map not a China-centered map. You can buy these in the U.S. too; I'm sure the people of Hawaii would prefer these. https://www.natgeomaps.com/re-world-classic-pacific-centered or https://www.natgeomaps.com/re-world-executive-pacific-center...

The name of China in Chinese is middle/central kindgom and there are maps with different areas being at the centre, so yep.
