Obviously. Did you ever consider that what you call "state control" in an Orwellian manner, is called regulations in other circles? You're arguing an unregulated market is the height of capitalism. In reality such markets always monopolize and form entities closer resembling Stalinist era state monopolies than what you would call capitalism.
China will out-capitalize the US, which is drowning in corruption. But apparently learning from your "opponent" is not something that is even permitted to be thought about.
But then again everybody knows fighting corruption is good. It's just that when it's the Chinese doing it, it's called "taking out the political competition" in our media, even when completely unfounded. In the US, letting corporations get away with way too much is called freedom.
