Yang Yuanqing: After graduating from the China Science and Technology University in 1989, Yang Yuanqing joined the Legend Group. Still a young man at 36, Yang is in the vanguard of the Chinese computer industry as the vicechairman of the Legend Group and general manager of the Legend Computer Co. "The personal computer is a portal to the Internet," says Yang in response to claims of a "post-PC era" sweeping through the information industry. According to these claims, the IT focus is shifting towards networks and PC manufacturing is in danger of declining. Though few people doubt the staying power of Leg end, not everyone agrees with Yang’s belief in the importance of continued PC development. Zhang Xianghui: During his five years with Microsoft (China), Zhang had led teams in the development of more than 100 Chinese versions of major software packages, such as Windows 95, Windows 98, Office 95, Office 97,and the upcoming Windows 2000. Perhaps his most outstanding achievement has been the Venus Plan, which is expected to ignite a major revolution in the home computer field. If a consumer doesn’t read English or has a low educational level, the Internet is virtually inaccessible. But the Venus Plan is poised to change all that by giving Chinese speakers direct access to the Internet. Industry experts believe the move will transform the structure of Internet use in China.
