Meanwhile, Robin Li, chief executive officer of Baidu, announced the start of "Aladdin Plan" on the day. The plan is actually a platform that aims to find out and classify the so-called Hidden Webs that current search engines fail to identify.
Li Yinan, new chief technology officer of Baidu.com, is selected to be responsible for the plan. By now, more than 1,000 core engineers have been engaged in the R&D of the platform. The number will go up in the future, along with the establishment of the Shanghai R&D center, Robin pointed out.
Most of the world's powerful search engines have invested a lot into the R&D of Hidden Webs, said the CEO. Therefore, besides the Shanghai R&D center, Baidu plans to set up another R&D center in Tokyo, capital of Japan.
