Might be good for some pilots. If you currently fly something that has the legs to get to China I imagine a Melbourne or Brissy home base might be on the cards with roster options commensurate with pay package.
The Chinese are becoming more and more progressive with their lifestyle options in an attempt to attract experienced pilots. One outfit is offering nine different roster options to get Captains to fly out of China. I can imagine a roster flying two returns a month for wages similar to what the big Aus carriers are paying for tougher rosters. This would allow the Chinese to keep their guys on the narrow bodies and reduce the massive wages they are paying to expats.
