If you're referring to Mandarin Chinese (usually what spoken Chinese refers to), it is spoken in the whole country of China, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia.

And if your referring to Cantonese, it is used around China just like mandarin. It is spoken in China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan.

Chinese is also spoken world-wide, as with many languages. Though Chinese isn't an official language in, for example, America, it can be heard spoken in America. It's also taught around the world, so the language spreads.
