Since Lee's work experience is mainly in technology and research and development, Google, which has not yet established a branch in China, needs a real operation who is familiar with both the Chinese market and the smooth communication with US headquarters. Zhou is undoubtedly one of the suitable candidates.

It is said that UT Starkon (UTSI.NASDAQ, hereinafter referred to as "UT") China District President, COO Zhou Chining has recently accepted an offer from Google, will soon become the company's China chief operating officer.

In this regard, the Chinese side of Google, "there is no information available to the public" as the basis, refused to comment.

Google expands to accelerate

Digging the horn is the first step in Google's expansion of its business in China.

However, Kai-Fu Lee's work experience is mainly in technology and research and development, and most of the time overseas work. After becoming president of Google China, he is primarily responsible for the operations of the Google China Product Development Center.

In this case, Google, which has not yet established a branch in China, has an urgent need to be an actual operational person who is familiar with the Chinese market and communicates smoothly with the US headquarters.

Zhou is undoubtedly one of the suitable candidates.

During UT, with the understanding and grasp of the Chinese market, Zhou Chining and Ying Wu to cooperate with each other, so that UT Tatsu Kang in the Chinese market quickly opened the situation. In the process, Zhou Ning accumulated a wealth of experience in the Chinese market.

Industry insiders believe that, although the Internet industry and communication equipment industry there is no small gap, but familiar with the Chinese market, understand the operation of the market operators to join, will help Google in the Chinese market quickly open the situation.

According to Google's official news yesterday, Washington state judge in Tuesday ruled that Kai-Fu Lee could work for Google immediately, including recruiting, creating the Google China Academy of Engineering, and communicating with Chinese government departments, but excluding computer search technology, Set up budget and payroll standards or define research projects for Google China Research Center.
