Google發(fā)布全球中文名稱“谷歌”
Google Debuts Chinese Brand Name
內(nèi)容概括：
4月12日，全球著名的搜索引擎Google 公司在北京正式發(fā)布其全球中文名稱為“谷歌”，為了更加貼近全球的中文語言用戶。據(jù)Google首席執(zhí)行官埃里克·施密特特介紹，“谷歌”意即“豐收之歌”，寓意了“豐富多彩的搜索體驗”，因為“用戶搜索的過程就是收獲的過程”。
Schmidt, Google's chief executive officer, was speaking at a ceremony to announce Google's Chinese-language brand name — "Gu Ge," or "Valley Song," which the company says draws on Chinese rural traditions to describe a fruitful and rewarding experience.
Google Inc. expects substantial revenue growth in China, a market the internet giant sees among its most promising but one in which censorship laws run counter to some of the firm's core values.
"I don't know where (Chinese) revenue growth will be, but it will obviously be large," Eric Schmidt said on the sidelines of a news conference overnight.
Schmidt also said Google saw China not only as a market for its Web search services but also as a global research centre.
