You don't have knowledge, then don't speak. What Chinese planes? The only commercial jets China makes are the C909 and C919, FULL of Western equipment. So what do you mean?
And Iran has many old planes, this is heavy lift widebody planes that can be used at least for a couple of years. Iran has been getting old widebody planes for years, a340 etc. So this is interim and heavy lift. This doesn't mean this is the only advantage Iran gets from the MOU.
On top of that, there are SEVERE backlogs in new airplane manufacturing, the world's carriers are facing many years of delays. Both Boeing and Airbus. Reasonable young widebody second hand planes are spoken for long before the MOU came up. Face it, only planes almost going to the scrapper can be shipped quickly and used for a few years.
I'll make it simple so even you can understand. Chinese planes may be 60% western sourced. That is a 40% upgrade for ease of maintenance and parts availability.
Iran has many old planes because of the old order that imposed this on Iran. The whole point of winning a war is to flip that script.
Nobody cares about planes being spoken for. The old rules are over. No safety and security for Iran means no security for Saudi and the rest of the puppets. That includes the safety of a flying a new plane vs 30 year old junk. This looks like charity not tribute by a defeated foreign satellite state.
