Google China confident despite loss of Lee

New managers of Google Inc.'s China arm, Vice President of Greater China Sales and Operations John Liu, left, and Boon-Lock Yeo, director of Google's Shanghai engineering office, attend a press conference in Beijing, China, Monday, Sept. 7, 2009. Liu and Yeo expressed confidence the company can grow despite the departure of the high-profile executive credited with expanding its market share. Kai-Fu Lee, who led Google China for four years, announced his resignation last week to launch a venture to finance Chinese tech startups. His departure had prompted questions about how Google will fare in a market dominated by local rival Baidu Corp.
