The anwser is ECUG[1]: formerly Erlang China User Group to promoting Erlang programming, now days changed itself to 'Effective Cloud User Group' for a border definition.

ECUG is a online community also it host an annual ECUG conference. Golang was first presented in ECUGConf2011 by xushiwei[2], he was building a dropbox clone(qbox.com) in Golang, now qbox become qiniu.com which is the most successful S3 clone in China.

In all the tech & media hype, those success stories, and the most important reason: the Golang community itself, Golang passed its breaking point in China and getting really popular.
