原因有三
First is that, during the '90s,
第一,在九十年代
I think the Chinese IT market was very, very small.
中国的互联网市场规模很小
Nobody paid attention to that.
没人关注这个市场
But during the past decade,
但在过去的十年间
I think, with the Internet coming to China,
随着互联网的普及
that the market gets larger and larger as

American companies did not realize that in the early days.
许多美国公司都始料未及
They thought, "OK, the amount of online information grows about

50% per year. I'll grow my index by 50% per year.' But in fact,
那就每年增长50%的索引
if you pay attention to China,
但事实上,如果你关注中国
the amount of Chinese information online triples every
在中国,网上信息量每年翻3倍
year. And we triple our index every year. So that gives

the Chinese Internet users impression that if you cannot
这给中国网民一个印象
find anything on the other search engines,
如果在其他搜索引擎上找不到的东西
you may be able to find it on Baidu. If you cannot find it on Baidu,
百度或许能够帮你,如果在百度上都找不到
you cannot find it anywhere else. So that's just one example of showing
那么其他地方肯定也找不到
how quickly the market is. If you are not close to that market,
这个例子表明中国市场发展得十分迅速,如果你不够关注市场
you have missed a lot of opportunities. The second reason is that,
机会将跟你擦肩而过,第二点原因是
although Baidu is perceived as a Chinese company

like many other NASDAQ-listed folks –SINA,
像其他在纳斯达克上市的中国公司一样

market in China. And as many of you know,
众所周知

enterprises. They move very slowly. They don't have the
他们反应迟缓,没有正确的奖励机制
right incentive structure. But in Internet,
互联网市场就不一样了
it's very different. It's like everyone knows everyone and
公司之间知己知彼
they all have the right incentive structure to become successful.
也有正确的激励机制以达到成功
The third reason is that Internet companies,
原因三,对于互联网公司
be it American or otherwise,
不管是在美国还是在其他国家
are generally very young. Young companies usually do not plan for the
都是新生的企业,一般不做长期打算
very long term. Sometimes they are not patient enough. They try,
有时显得缺乏耐心
they lost a lot of money. A couple of years later,
他们不断尝试,同时也为自己的年轻交了很多学费
five years later, they say,
若干年后,或许5年,他们会说
