Chinese has no alphabet as such, it only has characters, of which there are far too many of to call an alphabet. However the closest thing to an alphabet would be the radicals which go together to form different characters. For example the character for "good" is "好" which consists of the female radical "女" and the child radical "子"(because if you had a wife and child that was good-yes i know it's sexist but it was a long time ago). I hope this helps you.
