So yes, there is great irony here.
I don't see how some individual Chinese authors constitute "China" or "Chinese businesses". Unless these authors themselves have infringed someone else's IP there is no reason to consider it as somehow ironic that they sue against infringement of their own IP. Otherwise it would also be ironic if an American who travels abroad complains about being victim of a violent crime, because - you know - the US is inflicting violence on countless countries and people across the globe and no one seems to be able to really stop them. Each of these claims is absurd.
