Un Petit Chinoiserie

If a Chinese man is trapped in a Chinese Room, how does he convince the outside world there is a Chinese man in the Chinese Room? 

Are matters complicated if the Chinese man is himself a Chinese Room?

Which contains a Chinese man/Room, Matryoshka-style ad infinitum?

Should he see the psychiatrist who tends to bipolar bears? 

If so, where can said psychiatrist be found, the Equator?
