The miners will mine the most profitable chain. Which means that they will distribute themselves between SHA256 coins in a manner proportional to the rewards (block reward + TX fees) relative to the mining difficulty. Same as they do, have done and will do in any other scenario. Miners follow the money.

I have been thinking about this after the "successful" hard fork of BitcoinCash from the main chain. Since the Chinese miners now have an alternative chain to make money, will they be more than bold enough to take their hash power out of Bitcoin to put in BitcoinCash in case the NYA breaks down or if it is invalidated by Core?
