I'm sure it's possible; I just made an attempt.

In 13.10 ttf-wqy-zenhei was installed if you installed a Chinese
language. ttf-wqy-zenhei is not installed automatically in 14.04 (it was
replaced by fonts-droid).

The ttf-wqy-zenhei package includes the fontconfig recipe
/etc/fonts/conf.avail/64-wqy-zenhei.conf, while the fonts-droid equivalent /etc/fonts/conf.avail/65-droid-sans-fonts.conf is quite different.

So I prepared a change of fonts-droid where I added a recipe with 64
-wqy-zenhei.conf as a model. The modified fonts-droid package is
available in my PPA at https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/misc

Can you please install fonts-droid from my PPA and let us know if it
makes a difference?

Title:
  Default Chinese font changed to fonts-arphic-ukai after completing
  language support installation for zh-* locales

Status in Ubuntu Kylin:
  Triaged
Status in “fonts-android” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  After completing language support installation, fonts-arphic-ukai and
  fonts-arphic-uming are pulled into user's system and then fontconfig
  chooses Ukai over Droid Sans Fallback for the default sans-serif font.
  This is not the desired behavior as Ukai doesn't fit well into the
  category of screen fonts comparing to Droid Sans.
