China is still a developing country by most metrics with big rural population, big amounts of their population not in absolute poverty or poverty but dangerously close to it, rural/urban split, uneven development and shitton of infastructure left to built. "Producting forces" in that sense isnt just about abiltiy to produce good and services or raw production output. Bringing the whole 1.4 billion people country into modernity and daily material and infstructual conditions of the "first world" is still a job that is half way there and the only thing the CPC has declared about the country's condition after decades of reform and opening up is succeeding in the monumentous but incomplete goal of becoming a "moderately prosperous in all aspects" modern country
Considering this and the huge gap between the current degree of presence and influence of the capitalist framework within China and the situation you describe of "continuing the development and distribution from now on outside of the capitalist framework" its obvious that ,even assuming an end goal of full communism, the presence of capital in development and economy and culture of China will continue and persist in probably and hopefully diminishing degrees for the next few decades.
And thats probably whether the cpc likes it or not since even if you assume that everything from now on in China CAN be accomplished completely outside of the capitalist framework and even if we assume that the CPC KNOWS this and wants to realize it as soon as possible ,the shift can only be gradual at this point . Both with how the geopolitics are with the US ready to jump and exploint any instability and wrong decisions and with how intertangled china has become with domestic and foreign capital and how spread bourgois mindset has been in china .Large leaps and radical attempts to overnight move away from capitalism can only be disasterous at this point and the gradual process does mean continuing participation of capital in Chinas development. You may be surprised but i actually view the cultural revolution quite positively historicaly and at that point in time but since only that short of thing times 2-3 can uproot capitalism playing a major part in China's development within less than a decade, i have to say no thanks.
