OP here.
Sure, it will take some time to iron the kinks out.
Hmm, will those engines fit on Boeing and Airbus products? Looks like they may need to because those Chinese planes aren't ready yet.

China Southern Airlines Co. Ltd., the country’s largest airline by fleet size, expects to take delivery of more than 200 Boeing Co. and Airbus SE single-aisle jets over three years.
The Guangzhou-based carrier’s aircraft delivery and disposal plan released today revealed an addition of 103 Boeing 737 aircraft over the period. The report also showed that 111 Airbus A320 series jets will be added, including 46 in 2025 alone. The Airbus deliveries suggest a sharp increase over the figure released in the 2021 report.
