Kai-Fu Lee, president of Google Inc.'s (GOOG) China operations, is resigning from the company, according to two people familiar with the matter.
据两位知情人士透露，谷歌(Google Inc)大中华区总裁李开复将辞职。

He will be succeeded internally by another Google executive, according to one of the people familiar with the matter, who added that Google has no plans to scale back its operations in China.
一位知情人士说，谷歌另一位高管将接替李开复的职位；该人士补充称，谷歌不会削减旗下的中国业务。

Mr. Lee left Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) to join Google in 2005 to develop the company's operations in China. His hiring kicked off a legal battle between Microsoft and Google over Mr. Lee's move.
2005年，李开复从微软(Microsoft)辞职加盟谷歌，负责开拓谷歌中国业务。李开复跳槽还曾引发了谷歌和微软之间的诉讼之争。

During Mr. Lee's tenure, usage of Google products, including its search service, has grown among Chinese users. The company has also launched some products unique to the market, including an online music service.
在李开复任期内，谷歌搜索服务等产品在中国网民中的影响力不断扩大。谷歌还推出了网络音乐服务等面向中国市场的产品。

But Google still trails Chinese search leader Baidu by a wide margin. And it has continued to encounter scrutiny from the Chinese government, which has selectively blocked services such as its video-sharing site, YouTube.
不过，在中国网络搜索市场，谷歌仍然大大落后于市场领头羊百度。谷歌还一直面临着中国政府的严格监查，中国政府有选择性地封锁了部分谷歌服务，包括其视频网站YouTube。

One of the people familiar with the matter said Mr. Lee is leaving to work on his own venture. Mr. Lee could not be reached for comment.
