From Businessweek: “Jack Gao, the 42-year-old president and general
manager of Microsoft China, knew he was stepping
into a difficult job when he took the helm on Jan. 1,
2000. After all, his predecessor, Juliet Wu, had left
Microsoft only to write a scathing account of the
company’s China operations. And the
state-controlled press was frequently beating up on
Bill Gates & Co.”
