On 20 May 2009, Kaixin001 formally sued Qianxiang Group for unfair competition. Qianxiang Group runs one of China's popular social networks Renren. It purchased the kaixin.com domain and launched a Kaixin001 clone.[5] This enables Renren to confuse users and attract some Kaixin001 potential users to the Kaixin.com clone.[6] In October 2011, Kaixin001 won a victory. The Beijing Second Intermediate People's Court ordered Oak Pacific to cease all use of kaixin.com and pay 400,000 renminbi ($60,000) in damages.[7] The other main competition for Kaixin001 is Weibo.com, a microblogging website with more than 250 million daily users and is owned by Sina.com.
