I am trying to figure out if it's possible to search through code and stop at lines that contain Chinese characters?

Search for Chinese characters using regular expressions in Visual Studio. The regular expression [一-龥] matches any Chinese character.

The regular expression ^.*[一-龥] matches any line containing a Chinese character.

^ Anchor the match string to the beginning of a line
.* Match any character zero or more times (wildcard *)
[a-f] Match any character in a range of characters, for example, [一-龥] matches any character in the range of Chinese characters starting with the first Chinese character 一 and ending with the last Chinese character 龥.
