John Mary scored a brace while Christian Bassogog scored Henan Jianye's only goal in their 3-1 defeat to Shenzhen.
Mary scored two quick-fire goals in Dalian on Monday to help Shenzhen return to winning ways after last week's loss to Guangzhou R&F.
The 27-year-old attacker opened the scoring in the fourth minute and he doubled their lead six minutes later.
Gao Lin made it 3-0 in the 28th minute as Shenzhen cruised into the break with a comfortable lead.
After the restart, Bassogog who was making his second appearance in the Chinese Super League this term, scored Henan Jianye's consolation goal in the 75th minute - his first effort in 2020.
