I dont think the chinese industry is mature enough to push for a completely new design.
Well the smart thing they did was to build their ant-aircraft carrier capability (e.g. Dong Feng 21D) as well.

The American carrier design is great, why bother to change it?
Since China is not the one who invented the aircraft carrier, so no need to waste too much money just for a fancy word 'innovation'.
If people really want to see China's innovation, then it should be something that the World has never invented before.
I'm sure the Chinese will come up with a better product.
What makes the ion thruster special is the velocity of the expelled particles. Higher velocity = more efficient. The actual force is very low, but they can keep it up for weeks or years, and ultimately create extremely high velocities in space.
Im disappointed with the aircraft carrier....I thought the Chinese would've made a dramatic entry into the naval field maybe pushing for a completely new design.
Never run before you can walk.
Agreed. China has never built aircraft carrier before, works on Varyag is a major refit so it doesn't count, a first attempt to built a 60,000 ton class CV with-out prior building experience is a major feat.
Compare the above to the Ford class carrier pictured below:
