    Yeah, most Chinese are using baidu or similar search engines.
    Google.com is difficult to reach, but some Chinese use google.com.hk . Not just people from Hong Kong, because that is the google you get redirected to when you try to use google here.

    Google has some conflict with that country. And for some time it was banned in china. Now I think all is well, but as Baidu supports Chinese language, so all people prefer that search engine.
