Google.com.hk changed its name to Google China. Does Google no longer exist?

Thanks for the delivery of 365 hope.

In the early hours of this morning, I happened to find a subtle change in Google search's new home in China, google.com.hk. The bottom right of the logo was replaced by the black simplified Chinese character "China ".

Maybe we will not see the logo with the word "google" on the Google China homepage in the future. The word "google" has exited the stage of history and told us about Byebye?

Google was born in April 12, 2006. On that day, Google's Global CEO Eric Schmidt came to China and solemnly announced that Google's Chinese name was "google", ending Google's absence of Chinese names in China.

It is said that "google" means "The Song of harvest". It uses "poetic" to imply "rich and colorful search experiences ". Although the meaning is good, but it is not mouth-to-mouth, so it is not recognized. Google's localization (localization) policy began in this way.

In the next few years, Google has developed rapidly in China and has an increasing influence. At the beginning, Chinese users did not know exactly whether there was a letter "O" when entering Google, or they couldn't remember whether it was Google or googel. Now, almost all mid-and high-end Internet users create an inexplicable worship of Google's magic and greatness.

It is said that "google" is derived from the word "googol", that is, the 100 power of 10. It is written in the form of a number 1 followed by 100 zeros, indicating a large number. It seems that this explanation is very relevant to the rapid development of Google over the years.

"Google" has gone from nothing to nothing, and has gone from nothing to nothing. However, Google does not call it "google" in China, but it is also very comfortable to call it "Google China" because the "google" that has been caressed is far from Google.

Pray that "Google China" will truly return to its true nature in the future. We are looking forward to this day!
