  I just upgraded my account to a PRO account so i am not dependent on VPN to access my site.
  But as soon as I try to log in, by adding “/wp-admin” , it refers to wordpress.com/wp-admin again,
  which GFW in china blocks… I have worked on other WP blogs in china, so I know its possible,
  but I dont know how to achieve this.

  Please help!

  Kind regards

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  China has been known to block WordPress.com blogs, and there is nothing that we can do about this.

  As a workaround, you can try using a VPN or proxy to access the blog. You can see the following links that will provide some options that you may be able to explore and/or use:

  IAPS Security Services

  Tor Project

  We have also heard that some users have had luck simply by using Opera Turbo.

  I really hope this helps and you’ll find a way to access/update your blog.
