I can only find English language coverage of this on xinhua and sixthtone.

CNKI, known as Zhiwang in China and established in 1999 with backing from Tsinghua University, has faced regulatory challenges since last December.

The platform was fined 87.6 million yuan ($11.97 million) by Chinese regulators for “abusing its market dominance,” representing 5% of its 2021 domestic revenue. And last month, following an extensive yearlong investigation, the database was penalized again [for USD 6.8 million] for illegally collecting users’ personal information.
