On a smaller scale - maybe.

I agree with you Avon Lady. I also wonder if Russia has it coming from the Chinese. They're sure giving them the keys to the kingdom in regards to military technology.  |
I don't think that's predictable at this stage.
China's main interest at this time is getting Taiwan under its grip.
I think it would take a Chinese equivalent of NK's Lil' Kim coming into power for China to be interested in taking on Russia militarily.
Russia and China don't bother each other too much. Each might be watching their sixes from the other but they're both busy with other places and issues.
And there's always the possibility that China may one day in the near future might mature enough to become fully democratic through their own internal transformation, if the people can get hold of the higher positions in China's political and military systems.
