I think if the west ever becomes socialist then the type of socialism we'll see will necessarily be rooted in western culture and it's going to be its own unique flavor. Even China says that their system is a product of their own conditions and history, it's not a model that can be franchised to other countries directly. And Chinese model is far from perfect, so it's worth looking at both the good and the bad to learn and improve upon what works there while avoiding the negative aspects.
