Verdict Reached: Former miHoYo Employee Qin Yafei Ordered to Pay 1.6 Million RMB in Non-Compete Breach

A legal dispute regarding former miHoYo employee Qin Yafei has reached a verdict. Qin was under a non-compete agreement prohibiting them from working for competitors for one year post-resignation. However, reports surfaced that Qin was frequently swiping into Tencent office buildings during work hours, leading to legal action.

According to case file (2022) Hu 0104 Min Chu No. 7200, the court ruled that Qin had breached the agreement and was ordered to pay 1.6 million RMB in damages. The court did not uphold miHoYo's request for the return of non-compete compensation. Interestingly, in their defense, Qin claimed to hold a 'basic support position,' despite earning over 960,000 RMB in 18 months—an average monthly salary of over 50,000 RMB. This irony became a major point of discussion in the gaming community.
