In 20 1350, it is planned to select 2 1350 international students from various countries, and this quota is increasing every year. Last year it was about 19000, and it was about 10%. According to the Deputy Secretary-General of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the number of people will increase to about 25,000 in 20 15.
All the selected places have been announced by the National Scholarship Fund Committee. You can click on the link to view them.

What your teacher said belongs to number one. But this is only a language requirement, and there are many other conditions. Perhaps it can be said that only when the language meets the requirements can you apply for public schools abroad. And there must not be so many places (of course, there may be so many if there is local and enterprise funding).
First of all, students from top schools are willing to go abroad. For example, we are the first batch of national public masters, and students from Fudan University, People's Congress, Cai Zhong University and Agricultural University have all applied. Of course, I didn't ask Tsinghua and Peking University undergraduates in the interview. If the top schools you refer to are limited to these two, you may be right. (There may be students admitted to Tsinghua Peking University, but because of the large number, it is impossible to realize them all. )
It is necessary to sign an agreement. The agreement requires you to return to work for at least two years after completing your studies, and you have not been given any unit or job in these two years, as long as you are in China (Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan don't know if it is possible). You are free to choose after two years. So it gives us a lot of freedom.
Thought report, which should be called training report, is currently submitted once every three months, telling about your research achievements and project progress during this period, and the problems encountered in your study and work can also be submitted once every six months. However, it is said that the 20 14 Fund Committee will be reformed, and it may become that it can only submit reports and opinions once every six months. In fact, this training report is more about caring for international students, rather than reporting your own ideas like joining the party.
