One solution, I think, is to prepare the primitive syntaxfile
that matches all Chinese chars with a syntax highlight group
labeled with [EMAIL PROTECTED] Supposedly chinese chars
all have codes above 256 and english chars have codes below that,
or below z.
Assuming that max codepoint is 0xFFFF , you can try
exe 'syn match Normal /['.nr2char(256).'-'.nr2char(0xFFFF).']/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
or
exe 'syn match Chinese /['.nr2char(256).'-'.nr2char(0xFFFF).']/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
In the latter, you can also give Chinese chars gray color when
spellchecking English, so as to make it clear that those regions are
not spellchecked.

Max range is currently U+2FA1D in practice, U+2FA1F in theory; but as I said a
few minutes ago, that range won't be accepted (not even with upper bound set
to U+FFFF).
