Google China is a market for "single" Internet in the world, explained at a technology conference in Beijing vice-president of sales, John Liu. Liu declined to comment on the controversy that had the U.S. search engine with the Chinese government earlier this year on account of censorship of content and 'piracy' computer and said that Google is going to go for collaboration with Chinese firms.
"We're trying to offer our best services to businesses," explained Liu, who stressed the importance of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the technology sector of China. "Everyone can be a customer, supplier, competitor or even a partner," said Google vice president of sales Google and China. In this sense, the manager predicted a "new competitive landscape" in an Internet that will expand in quantity, the exponential increase of users, and quality, by improving the content.

Liu predicted that in 10 years will multiply the number of Internet users, current 1,800 million to 5,000 million people, many of them from emerging powers. China and actually exceeds the 400 million users, but the rate of penetration of the Net in just less than 25%, while in developed countries is around 70%. Similarly, he said, in 2020 there will be 10,000 million mobile phones worldwide, more than double the 4,600 million today. On the other hand, Liu defended the future of computing 'cloud' (cloud computing), as their characteristics of adaptability, individuality and its growth potential is much larger than traditional applications Google and China.
