It was revealed that Zuckerberg, accompanied by Li Yanhong, visited the Baidu building. People familiar with the matter said the meeting was very concealed, and Baidu employees did not know it. They only met two people at the staff's restaurant during lunch time, while Zuckerberg's girlfriend was also around. As there were many dining staff and the time was too short, at that time, there was no concern.

Earlier, Times reported in annual figures that "Zuckerberg will visit China during his vacation and his girlfriend will have family members in China ". His girlfriend Priscilla Chan is a Chinese American. Last month, Zuckerberg asked on the Facebook page what cities and travel strategies should be visited in China.

In August, foreign media reported that Li Yanhong And Zuckerberg sat on the outdoor bench to talk about each other. At the same time, they again gathered at the just-concluded Summit, this meeting should be the third meeting this year.

Zuckerberg's visit made Facebook a reference again. The TimesArticleHe also said: We can't help wondering if he will do some secret market research in China. China has 1/5 of the world's population, while Zuckerberg's Facebook has not yet entered this market.

Analysts pointed out that China is of great significance to Zuckerberg in both business and personal aspects. Facebook has not yet entered the huge Internet market in China. Zuckerberg himself has been learning Mandarin.

In April this year, Sina technology exclusively reported that Facebook was about to officially enter the Chinese mainland market.
