It's not that simple:

If you commit a crime in a foreign country and / or to a foreign subject, its laws apply to you.

I suppose it's the same thing as if you would breach an international contract and wouldn't have the jurisdiction set in it - the jurisdiction of those, its copyrighted work was infridged / side that was damaged is beeing applied.

All the civilised states in the world have also these international copyright treaties in place they should respect, well needless to say it will be much easier to come to a resolution when a UK registered subject is in the game than in case of a subject registered in China.
