TWOV is partly not only economically reasoned, but also politically. Serbia is on good terms with China, Norway isn't.

Unless the UK becomes either quite a bit poorer (very much possible "thanks" to Brexit - but I doubt it would make THAT much of a difference) or runs an Anti-Chinese campagin by their gouvernment (unlikely, they seem to prefer to blame the EU for their own shortcomings) I can't see them being dropped.

But then, that's assuming a somewhat orderly Brexit. Not Scotland declaring Independence, North Ireland joining Ireland, and Wales and England suddenly finding themself in a massive infight.
