IIRC, they've only tried carrots so far, which hasn't worked. My bet is they'll turn to sticks, sooner rather than later, and have a lot of experience with them due to the one child policy.
I wouldn't be surprised if they start to fine the childless and/or limit childless women's advancement opportunities at work.
I think China's approach would become the blueprint for third world countries eventually dealing with this.
