Thanks for your message. Is that for the .cn ccTLD? Or does that apply
rule to gTLDs like .com? (the Google Translation is a bit confusing to
me)

I know that the Canary.com UDRP decision against a Chinese registrant
from 4 years ago wasn't final, as the domain name is still owned by
that registrant (I believe they appealed in court):

I believe the same thing happened for Razer.com in early 2016:

albeit in Hong Kong. Of concern, the original UDRP decision does not
appear on the ADNDRC website.
