Yes, that is why most developing countries (Barring the few ones we have territorial desputes with), will be a lot more comfortable dealing with the Chinese. That will gradually empower the CCP position's validity.
The downside of the lack of ideology is, China will lose badly in the battle of propaganda, as the mob respond well to "sound bite politics", to which China is unable to offer much.
I am viewing this from the prism of my home town Hong Kong, where disgrunted young people - mixed with a highly incompetent colonial government who lost their master, and a stagnant economy - readily become hordes of anti-China zealots. I have witnessed the horrible damage during the event and the far reaching aftermath, and realized China needs to present some form of digestable ideology. So far, I couldn't see any viable solution to this mess and things are sadly going down a bottomless spiral with no end in sight.

Society changes, politics changes, no ideology should remain stationary.
