It's credited to a "French Chef" which hints to it's existence prior—it may very well be published elsewhere. But I haven't done further research.

I'm not convinced it's safe to say that the technique was developed by the Chinese without proof—which likely doesn't exist.
But that's not chicken stock. And it says to boil for three to four hours, which would also make a fairly lousy stock.
