Not really. The bulk of China's decline in birth rates can be ascribed to the same demographic cycle that all developed countries go through rather than to the one child policy. In fact the policy itself only affects a certain percentage of Chinese families in the first place.

Also, paying people to have kids hasn't done much when other countries have tried it, and I doubt China's luck will be any better.
