AFAIK, most Chinese handsets are Androids that aren't using Google's services, and instead there are multiple equivalent alternative ecosystems of significant size. I don't think Google sees a penny from any of it.

The West could make its own alternatives, but the competitors aren't willing to work together to quilt the large hole Google's services would leave.
