Because Qihoo 360 and Sogou merger rumors have lasted for two months, so the industry speculated that the matter should be almost. In fact, as a listed company, information disclosure has the corresponding norms, from May to date, around the Sogou sales rumors, there are 360, Baidu, Tencent and Alibaba these internet giants compete to join. There are reports that Baidu related officials said that the current acquisition of Sogou things are still in the process of engagement, there is no substantial progress.

Back to Gondor: It is the second in the country, as for the industry first, we do not have such a high desire. Our three-year development plan is an annual growth of 10%, that is, the end of this year to 20%, next year to 30%, and then to 40% growth share. But 40% of the growth share I think is also a case of separation, also did not say to achieve absolute monopoly. Competitors have been doing it for many years, so we can only do some micro-innovation here. User habits are still difficult to change, we have no way to expect a sudden change over him.

Juli Cloud: The current "super" or Baidu, "two Strong" is the Sogou and 360. The appearance of this pattern is from Google after the exit from China, I think is a very good situation, completely broke the former overlord of the situation, the entire industry and users will be very useful, so now the company will be the industry users and users need to do more consideration.
