"The Google" will not come back. Google route through Shanghai FTA to return to China?

6 years ago left that Google is the search engine company, and today only to come back Google Play. Artesyn Technologies selection of quality from media articles, the paper said independent views of the author and do not represent the position of Artesyn Technologies.
  • Text / Thomas Luo (micro-channel public number: pop-Party)
  • "Sony today bankrupt you?" And no. "Google today back?" Not yet.
  • However, this picture scare you is it?


Rumors increasingly cheap, an extremely rough poor quality counterfeit " Google ( microblogging ) return to Chinese news conference invitation "let a lot of people are scared of urine:

First, logo is an older version, Google in early September when the logo of the new ones;
Secondly, the "Google" the official Chinese name Google has long been abandoned from 2011 on;
Again, "return to China" in the context of Google's official never existed, the standard argument is that "Google never left China, but the server is moved";

Also, "the Chinese president Jony" What the hell is?
Finally, the "strong return" and "an occasion to marketing" - that all day long when you put Google shouting Hansha music as Jia Yueting it?
This should be a Google ad agency clients briefing poster, roll away point, thank you.

And it is the reason why so many people today are forwarded, spread and believe recent addition to describing what should we pay taxes of intelligence, it also described this house in the past five years, the company was forced to stay away from us, how much we have so little look, I hope it can become again our relationship a little tighter.

Of course, it is stated that Google is really fast "back." I know more and more exact message is: Google's app store has already done the full --Google Play "localization" of preparation to become six years Google in China's first landing new business.

Over the past six years, Google search market share in China dropped sharply from over 30 percent to 5 percent, but most of the time a company can not access its services, forever, "this page can not be displayed" and still this isolated land tenure 5% market share, can not explain some of the problem?

For those who are still living on this land, every day trying to use a variety of scientific tools people use Google's online services for, Google is not just a series of collections of cool products, but also a spiritual meaning and values ​​dimension sustenance and symbol.

Therefore, any little news about the "Google to return to China", will allow a group of people very excited.

71 months ago, Google announced suddenly without warning to stop considering business in China is no longer accept the search engine service information filtering in China; 69 months ago, Google announced that it will serve the entire business server migration in mainland China to Hong Kong completely circumvent censorship. Then, more and more unable to connect to Google services from the connection to the most difficult time, and then completely lost contact; more Google applications from Apple server settings in the Mainland of China Apple Store, and the vast majority of domestic Android App Store is removed ...... until today.

I feel this matter has been complicated. That morning at 5 years and 11 months ago, I was in front of the building Google's Beijing office had left a bouquet of flowers and a card. But I can not let go of is: those living in mainland China, has been using Google service users, for Google, what kind? Google knew then practice may make these users can never normal use Google's services, but it for what those users want to do what? Doing so may get some of the world-wide "moral support", but special treat China had already existed tens of millions of users, from the users that they should be excluded in normal service, it can meet the moral?

These words I never said publicly. I'm still a loyal Google users - whether I live in the United States or China time. Our mail service is still hosted on Gmail, all scientific colleagues online every day. But now when Google really fast "back" when I can be a little to complain about: I was a liberal who believes in embracing the free flow of information, but I'm not political and ideological saints, the past six Year to Google or to us, these toss really worth it?

Google is back, this is not who's wishful thinking. I can not speak a little know the details, but apparently, for others led to Google "back" of the people, Google's business once again landing in China, so that they "China's Internet is open" argument can be established.


Can "Google back" argument itself is not established. Because the "back" of the Google, in fact, is another Google.

Six years ago, leaving that Google is a search engine company, also offers some online documents, mail, cloud storage, and maps, and other services.

At that time, Android as an operating system not rule the world, Google just move up, or pure "Internet" service providers, there is no pay, no unmanned, no day courier delivery of shopping, not robots and called the car service.

Now, Google is an all-encompassing technology giant, which provides search, mobile application store, smart phones, wearable devices, robotics, unmanned vehicles, payments, online shopping, online called the car, mobile navigation ...... This also It does not include the parent company Alphabet to be stripped out of the life sciences, space and a series of operations.

Six years ago, Google business in China is almost confined in the search, the opponent is Baidu . Until one day the search will not be filtered, and finally more complete information to flow freely, then it immediately disappeared.

Now, the first item of business in China Google republish should be Google Play-- mobile application store business. Faced with the past five years of continuous infighting, and ultimately Tencent, Baidu, millet, pea pods and 360 companies and several separatist oligarchs Android application delivery market, no doubt, Google Play can have more beautiful design, cleaner page , there are more scientific advertising and flow calculation, it's best to impress those domestic content producers, game developers and tool developers, allowing people who like to come back over Google, harvest some of the "high end" users, And then what?

Over the past six years, the whole world is moving and a bit of the flow of the Internet connection and data to rule the entire universe and our individual lives. In this process, Google has become more powerful, more complex, more intelligent, that search and integrate the world's information, so that information flows more freely mission becomes more and more important, more important is Google can intelligently understand every detail of the operation of the physical world, and then use their own "intelligence" and data to possess them.

Similarly, in the process, because Google's absence - or whether or not the absence of Google absent, Tencent, Alibaba , Baidu, 360, millet and music, as they also are walking in this physical world so that every detail controlled by the data path. They did not go far Google, but the pace is not slow to catch up.

Google "back", but it is not the entire back. If our payment, shopping, transportation travel, driving and virtual theater scene is not Google, it can not be really back. In this sense, Google did not come back.

Google "back", but that "the integration of all information in the world, so that freer flow of information," the Google did not come back, "back" is Google's application store, mobile advertising and some data services, in this sense, came back not the same Google.

Google "back", but that part of the elite of China's Internet users in mind ethics and values ​​incarnation of Google did not come back, it is possible that Google never come back.

But who can say that this must be a good thing or a bad thing?
