| personal info: | With all the hype surrounding Google’s IPO this autumn, all eyes have been on when Baidu, the largest Chinese-language search engine, comes to market. This summer Google took a minority stake in Baidu along with seven other investors. With sales last year of US$2.5 million and 300 employees, Baidu today has 100 million page views per day. One of China’s proverbial returnees, computer science graduate Li studied and worked in the US for eight years, including a stint on data feeds at Dow Jones, before setting up Baidu with Eric Xu Yong in 1998. |
