Sina Science and technology news on the morning of August 1, rumors of the Instant Search, Pangu search of the merger case, today or have substantial progress. At present, however, two officials have indicated that they have not received any relevant notices. Regardless of the immediate and pangu ways to integrate, this national team in the search area of the attempt, are worthy of the parties to sum up and reflect.

Instant Search and Pangu search are the products of the season. Google China's strategic adjustment in 2010, with the support of the big environment, the people's Daily and Xinhua news agency respectively led the preparation of the launch of the search engine. In June of that year, People's Daily led the search (the domain name goso.cn) on the line; The following February, the Xinhua News agency jointly launched Pangu search.

Search is a competitive market, the national team admission also need to follow the corresponding play. For example, people search for more close to the market renamed to Instant Search, domain name also make corresponding changes (jike.com). Of course, both are aware of the decisive role of technology in the search market. In the process, Google's background engineers played a key role.

Immediately search for the first rely on the technical support of such search, and so search for Google Chinese Academy of Engineering Vice President Liu founded, Liu also once as the chief scientist of Instant Search, in addition to search also from Google Wang as deputy general manager. Mr. Gu, who has been the chief of the search CTO, also has Google and the working background.

To attract talent, the search for national teams in the recruitment from time to time to play a policy card, Beijing settled policy is one example. However, this approach is sometimes "exceptional" in part.

After the arrival of the Google Department, the infrastructure of the two national search teams was rebuilt, bringing further improvements at the technical level. But this technology is not enough to boost market share directly. Third-party statistics, almost no immediate and Pangu figures. Leaving out the data, it is true that few users use the two products.

Public opinion monitoring may be one of the best results in the search for national teams.

Lack of competitiveness in the market is also dissatisfied with the high level. At least since the second half of last year, there have been some high-level figures that have made it clear that the immediate and Pangu structure will be adjusted, and that the need for two teams to search the country is fundamentally questioned. It is also from this point of time, immediately and Pangu began their own unusual action.

Instant Search begins to cut the relationship. Immediately before the search and so there is a partnership: immediate money, and so out of technology. But after spending a significant amount of money, the key technology of search is still in hand. Immediately the highest level began to pressure Liu, and immediately general manager Deng Yaping was involved in it.

The end of this event is, so and immediate cooperation terminated, Liu exit. This incident let instantly search into a storm, Deng Yaping once wanted to explain, but at the last minute changed his mind.

The search for Pangu seems to run counter to the move. At the end of last year, from the Chenli as Pangu search CTO, in the following months, the Chen Li people led the team to reconstruct Pangu search. This May, the Chan people also on the new version of Pangu Search related situation, to the media to explain and explain. In July, Mr. Chen left the office.

Some analysts believe that the immediate and Pangu initiatives, is clearly in the consolidation of the talks to increase the right to speak. Two originally in the search market has a tacit understanding of the national team, are in the last fight secretly rivalry.

How effective these efforts are is unclear. But almost a foregone conclusion is that, immediately general manager Deng Yaping, Pan Gu general manager Wang Hongyu, two of the female commander will not be in the new company.

This morning, Pangu had a meeting, although the subject was not published in advance, but was generally considered to be related to the merger of the two sides. But by the deadline, two officials said they had received no notification of any merger. But there are insiders hinting that tomorrow or there will be a final formal plan release.

Over the past few months, the immediate and Pangu employees are mostly in panic, knowing that the adjustment is imminent but also powerless. In addition to the above mentioned Pangu search CTO has left the job, the immediate technical team is equally popular.

However, outside the instant and Pangu system, not many people really care about the fate of the two national team geometry. These changes, which are about to come true, may be just a new source of criticism from outside. Unfortunately, although the search market was not stirred by the instant and Pangu, some employees (even the Google Department) contracted some state-owned enterprises. (Menghong)
