I met China and despite they don't like me with a -82 relation, they will accept an instantly offered friendship:
I have never experienced it before that an AI will accept a friendship in the turn you meet them - even if you instantly have warm relations, they always refuse with apolite statement refering to that "it is too early". I could live with changing that, but not if relations are that bad like they are here.
To reproduce with the attached save:
1. Move the Caravel to trigger meeting China:
2. When Qin asks you to exchange capital maps in the first meeting coming up accept.
3. Then call him up your self. Check relation modifiers in place and see that relations are really bad. Then offer friendship and see it getting accepted.
