3G users puzzle: Who is China's 3G "one brother"

The It Times Qianlifu January was the peak period of data from the previous year. As a hot spot in the communications industry, the ministry and operators recently released 3G development data for the year 2009 and December, but the data on the number of users are inconsistent among the parties, especially the number of TD users. According to different data calculation, China Telecom and China Mobile can become the first 3G market last year.　　But "one brother" may only have one, who is it?　　TD Users: 3.4 million, 5.1 million, 5.51 million? TD's development has been highly concerned by the government, in three kinds of 3G standards in the domestic market, it started commercial, so by the end of last year, the number of TD users?　　There is currently no uniform data. The first number is 3.4 million.　　January 20, China Mobile released last December, the main operating data showed that by the end of 2009, the total number of mobile users reached 522 million, of which the December use of TD Network services, the number of users of 3.408 million households. The second number is 5.51 million.　　On January 13, China Mobile's 2010 working conference, President Wang said that as at the end of 2009 TD users have reached 5.51 million, TD's planning for the next two years will be completed in 2010.　　The third figure is 5.1 million, which was held on January 27 in the "2009 Industrial Communications Industry Running press conference", by the Ministry of Communications Development Division director Zhang Feng revealed. 3.408 million and 5.51 million for China Mobile published data, why there will be more than 2 million of data differences. Telecommunications Expert Liang This analysis, 3.408 million should be in the G3 network incurred the cost of the user, and 5.51 million include the terminal is 3G but the use of 2G business users. "In general, the data released by listed companies is more believable," he says. "Not only does China Mobile's own data differ, but it is not the same as the data published by the Ministry of Public Information. This happened once before, the Ministry of Industry released last year 2009 years ago 10 months 3G development data, TD users of 3.94 million, and China Mobile's own data of 2.309 million. At that time, China Mobile related Personage said, 2.309 million is the end of the month in the network TD users, should be the Ministry of Statistics for accounting standards.　　According to this reason, the Ministry of Information more than 5.1 million of China Mobile last December operating data of 3.4 million is understandable, but compared to the 5.51 million less than Mr Wang claimed 400,000, I do not know how to explain. 3G "one elder brother": China Telecom or China Mobile who is "one elder brother" question would not have produced, as long as the Ministry of Public disclosure of 3G users at the same time the total number of three operators to publish the number of users, the results will make people at a glance.　　However, the ministry did not do so, and the total number of 3G users outside the disclosure of some discrepancies, and China Telecom has not disclosed specific data. It has been reported that the largest number of 3G users is China Mobile. The conclusion is this, as of last yearThe total number of users at the end of 3G is 13.25 million, China Mobile TD users 5.51 million, China Unicom for 2.74 million, so that the number of Chinese telecom to 5 million, and then scheduled seating. However, the reporter learned that 13.25 million of the total number of users is not accurate, should be 15 million. 13.25 million where does this figure come from? Reporter inspection found that a number of media reported in the "2009 Industrial Communications Industry Running press conference", Ministry of Communications Development Division director Zhang Feng said that the total number of 3G users is 13.25 million. Reporters on the Ministry of the official website to see the launch of the text broadcast, which mentions that 3G users are 15 million, not previously reported 13.25 million. A staff member of the Ministry of Communications Development explained to the Reporter: "This number has been adjusted, should be 15 million." "To determine the total number of users is 15 million, while China moved the number of 5.51 million, China Unicom for 2.74 million, you can calculate the number of China Telecom 3G users reached 6.75 million, ranked top."　　If the number of China Mobile users is 5.1 million, the number of Chinese telecom users is as high as 7.16 million, higher than the competitor more than 2 million. Data from third party consultancies also show that China Telecom has the largest number of 3G users last year. "China Telecom is the first, Chinese mobile second, unicom third." "She Hongyi, analyst at the Research Center for Communications Industry at Sadie, said to reporters. According to the survey by Sadie Consultants, as of the end of last year, the total number of 3G users in China reached 11.414 million, in the last year 3G new users, China Telecom 3G users accounted for 46.1%, far more than other operators. "These 11.414 million include the 190,000 TD friendly users that China Mobile developed in 2008, so the total number multiplied by the corresponding proportion is the current 3G user number of two operators." "She Hongyi said. According to this calculation, China Telecom 3G user number is about 5.26 million.
