I hope China at least gets the Russian Far East,....

I don't. Given China's culture and history I don't think a powerful China is going to be a friendly China. I personally wouldn't mind a falling-out between Russia and China that resulted in Russia using up it's nuclear arsenal on China.

I believe China will be a friendly state.

Why would you wish that? On China or any other country.

While Russia, today, has the upper hand in nuclear arsenal, China, in the long term, will have the upper hand. A falling out potentially can occur between Russia and China, but it'll be driven mainly by the Russians, I'm sure of it. If it does happen, hopefully it will happen far enough into the future when China will be able to provide the deterrent of mutually assured destruction.
