I guess I'll have to test this when international travel resumes.

I don't know if AliPay is converting it to USD or it's just passing the RMB to your Chase card. Assuming I am reading what you typed properly, then it means RMB is charged to the Chase card, which is great as I want Visa to handle the foreign exchange.
