This is because Google has been blocked since 2010, following a dispute over censorship and cyber attacks. The Chinese Great Firewall is the reason why users are unable to access Google.
Despite this, some people still manage to use VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) to access Google by pretending to be in another country. However, they will still be unable to access localized Chinese Google results.
Google still crawls and indexes Chinese websites, and it understands that some search queries would deserve localized search results. By using URL parameters, you can tell Google not only which language should be used in the user interface, but also which language the search results should be drawn from and which geo-location they should be relevant for.
By utilizing these URL parameters, Gooina makes it possible for users to receive localized search results for any place in the world as if they were there, even if they are not. We trigger a real Google search as if the user was located in China and as if Google was not blocked there.
Now you can access relevant search results as if you were located in China.
