Do not forget about only one chinese playing here Liang Jingkun, he can be very dangerous, at least quaterfinals for him, depends on the schedule.
My vote goes for Masato Shiono, he is really not easy to beat. I think only Chuang can do it.

There is many more chinese players then Liang jingkun

obviously the top seeded, Chuang Chih-Yuan, Jun Mizutani have high chance.

but I think one of the chinese youngsters might win as wekk, i only watched xx v.s. YU Ziyang, and he obviously lacks experience, but fundamental techniques are real good. these 1996 - 1998 generation is pretty damn good, and these are the few chances they can shine, since there are no chinese senior, and they don't have much pressure right now.

For Fang Bo, I genuinely didn't think fang bo will have many chances after his yesterday defeat in korea open. he probably won't have chance in wttc, and any big tournaments later, except the (1) chinese trial route or by (2) winning lots of world tour tournaments (unlikely). Both his forehand and backhand fundamental technique is not as strong as his colleagues. even without the next generation, zhou yu, xu chenhao, and others will rise above fang bo.

so sad, i predict that fang bo will probably end up being a trainer with the top guns.
