Beijing High People's Court entered into its final decision, denying the requests from Beijing Baofeng Company and upholding the first instance decision of the Beijing No.1 Intermediate People's Court.

In November 2007, RealPlayer found that Baofeng includes components with Real copyright in its own media player without its authorization. Such act constitutes copyright infringement. It then filed an infringement action before Beijing No.1 Intermediate People's Court. In its decision of first instance in December 2008, the court held Baofeng has infringed Real's software reproduction right, distribution right and issued an injunction and monetary damage of 200,000 yuan. The disgruntled Baofeng Company then appealed to the High Court, which would later make the above decision.
