No one should intervene in this case.  Let the Chinese courts decide.  From my understanding the defendant has pulled this stunt before and got away with it.  It's unfathomable that he could undervalue the ice wine by so much (declaring only around $2.00 per bottle), when everyone knows it has to be at least $30/bottle.   This guy also owns a large new winery he just built up the road from us (West Kelowna); its kind of a monstrosity, not too attractive; quite cavernous inside and very drab and boring, and the wines are outrageously over-priced (appears to have been built to accommodate multi-bus loads of Chinese tourists).  I hope he loses it all and someone else buys if from the receiver for a fraction of the cost and turns it into a business to be proud of.  Right now, its looking like a blight on our landscape.   Businessmen like him, Canada does not need.
