　　时光如水，2006年在不知不觉间即将走到尽头。对于我国通信业而言，2006年是硕果累累的一年。在2006年，我国通信业迈入了新通信时代。为何这么说？2006年，我国各电信企业的战略转型取得了阶段性的成果，这便是传统通信与新通信的分水岭。新通信覆盖的业务领域大大拓展、产业链的长度大大增长、运作方式也有不小的改变。随着业内产值的攀升、竞争格局的改变、移动通信的普及、“村村通工程”的推进、消费者对通信业务认知的深入，和谐与变革发展终贯穿在通信业前进的过程之中。总而言之，2006年是中国通信业高速发展的一年。

　　Astimegoesby unnoticeably, the year 2006 is already at the end. For the Chinese telecommunication industry, 2006 is a year permeated with achievements. In 2006, the Chinese telecommunication industry entered the new era of telecommunication. Why do we say that? In 2006, every Chinese telecommunication enterprise progressed nicely in their strategic transition, which marked the division between traditional telecommunication and new telecommunication. New telecommunication covers more areas, has longer industrial chains, and operates quite differently. With the increase in industry value, changes in the market, popularization of mobile telecommunication, promotion of the “rural project”, and a deeper understanding the consumers have regarding telecommunication, the two main themes of telecommunication in 2006 are harmonious development and reform. Overall, 2006 is a year when Chinese telecommunication industry experienced fast growth.

　　和欧美通信业的不瘟不火相比，我国通信业保持了高速发展，这主要得益于国民经济的快速增长，得益于信息化带动工业化战略的实施，得益于通信业一系列稳健务实的发展政策。另外，各运营企业在深化内部改革、转换经营机制、改善服务质量的同时，也加大了市场开发的力度，挖掘市场潜力，创新运作模式，有效地激发了需求、激活了市场。

　　Comparedwiththetame Western telecommunication industry, the Chinese telecommunication industry maintained its high growth rate, mainly benefiting from the rapid growth of the national economy, the implementation of the strategy to use information to bring about industrialization, as well as a series of stable and practical developmental policies published by the telecommunication industry. Also, the various operators, besides going forward with their internal reform, the changing of their operating model, and the improvement of their service quality, have also increased the effort in market expansion, developing of the market potential, and the innovating of the operation model, which has increased the market demand.

　　信息产业部最新统计显示，今年前3季度，我国通信业继续保持良好的发展态势。1～9月，全国通信业务总量完成11131.1亿元，比去年同期增长25.1%。其中，电信业务总量10589.2亿元，增长25.5%。全国通信业务收入完成5278.5亿元，比去年同期增长11.7%。其中，电信业务收入4799.3亿元，增长11.3%。通信业务总量的增长率约为通信业务收入增长率的2.2倍。在全球电信业增长乏力的形势下，中国通信业持续稳步的增长态势体现了中国通信业的旺盛活力和政府业务发展政策的积极稳健。

　　Theneweststatisticsof the Ministry of Information Industry shows that in the first three quarters of this year Chinese telecommunication industry has continued to develop at a rapid rate. From January to September, the total national communication turnover was 1,113.11 billion Yuan, an increase of 25.1% compared with the same period last year. Of the total turnover, 1,058.92 billion Yuan came from telecommunication operations, an increase of 25.5%. The national communication income was 527.85 billion Yuan, an increase of 11.7% compared to the same period last year. Of the total revenue, 479.93 billion Yuan came from telecommunication operations, an increase of 11.3%. The rate of increase in communication operation turnover is rough 2.2 times that of the communication operation income. In a year when the global telecommunication industry experienced lackluster growth, the Chinese telecommunication industry continues to increase stably, which shows the vitality of the industry as well as the positive effect the governmental policies are having.

　　十几年来，我国电话用户规模以“滚雪球”之势迅猛扩张。近年来，尽管业务收入增速有所放缓，但用户数量尤其是移动用户数量的增长仍保持着旺盛的势头。今年1～9月份，全国固定电话用户新增1886.1万户，达到36930.6万户。其中城市电话用户新增1359.4万户，达到25334.6万户；农村电话用户新增526.7万户，达到11596.0万户。无线市话用户新增803.4万户，用户总数达到9333.4万户，在固定电话用户中所占的比重为25.3%。而全国移动电话用户新增4974.8万户，达到44315.4万户。移动分组数据用户新增4640.2万户，达到11720.7万户。移动分组数据用户在移动电话用户中所占比重从去年底的18.0%上升到26.4%。我国电话用户数的不断扩大为通信业的持续发展打下了坚实的基础，有力地促进了全社会通信消费的增长，也促使我国通信产业综合竞争力全面升级。

　　Inthelastdecade or so, the number of Chinese telephone users has increased in a “rolling snowball” fashion. Even though in recent years the rate of increase in operation income has slowed down, the number of users, and in particular the number of mobile users, has continued to grow at a rapid rate. From January to September of this year, 18.861 million more new fixed telephone users were added around the country, making the total 369.306 million. The number of urban telephone users increased by 13.594 million for a total of 253.346 million users; the number of rural telephone users increased by 5.267 million for a total of 115.96 million users. The number of wireless users in the city increased by 8.034 million for total of 93.334 million users, accounting for 25.3% of fixed telephone users. The number of national mobile telephone users increased by 49.748 million for a total of 443.154 million. The number of mobile group data users increased by 46.402 million for a total of 117.207 million. The ratio of mobile group data users among all mobile telephone users increased from the 18.0% measured during the end of last year to 26.4%. The increase in the number of telephone users in China has built solid foundations for sustainable growth in the telecommunication industry; it will further increase the social telecommunication consumption and help enhance the overall competitiveness of the Chinese telecommunication industry.

　　市场格局走向和谐

　　今年1～9月份，全国通信固定资产投资完成1443.1亿元，比去年同期增长17.7%。其中，电信固定资产投资完成1424.8亿元，比去年同期增长17.7%；邮政固定资产投资完成18.3亿元，比去年同期增长21.5%。决定我国通信固定资产投资额变化的因素是多方面的，包括企业对投资结构和投资方向的调整等。通信投资的增加促进了网络建设和业务发展。在目前业务收入增长放缓的前提下，通信企业加大投资符合市场经济规律，属于正常的结构性调整，体现出企业经营、投资的务实和理性。

　　FromJanuarytoSeptember of this year, the total investment made in fixed assets for national communication industry was 144.31 billion Yuan, an increase of 17.7% compared to the same period last year; of the total investment, 142.48 billion Yuan were made on fixed asset for the telecommunication industry, an increase of 17.7% compared with the same period last year; 1.83 billion Yuan were invested in fixed postal assets, an increase of 21.5% compared with the same period last year. Many factors affected the changes in investment made in fixed assets for the national communication industry, which includes the adjustment made by enterprise in regard to their investment structure and investment direction. The increase in communication investment has helped the building of networks and the development of operations. Currently, with the operation income experiencing a slower rate of growth, an increase in investment made by telecommunication enterprise is merely a part of the market economy logic; it is a normal structural adjustment, and it demonstrates the practicality and reasonableness in corporate operation and investment.

　　1～9月，我国移动通信收入同比增长18.3%，在电信业务收入中的比重达到47.1%，促进了电信业务收入的稳步增长。数据通信收入同比增长率高达22.2%，约为电信主营业务收入增长率的两倍。固定本地电话和长途电话业务收入占总收入的比重比2005年同期分别下降了2.49%和1.06%，而移动通信和数据通信业务收入所占比重则分别上升了2.89%和0.71%。在移动通信领域，移动数据业务发展迅速，其业务收入占移动通信业务收入的21.0%。固定本地电话通话量出现负增长，比去年同期下降2.9%，而移动本地电话通话时长比去年同期增长33.6%，对固定本地业务的替代效应持续增强。在固定本地电话通话量中，无线市话通话量所占的比重从去年同期的24.9%上升到25.7%，增长率也从去年同期的25.3%迅速下降到0.2%，对固定本地电话通话量的带动作用继续减弱。可见，竞争格局的改变和业务结构的改善使用户可以自由地选择业务和运营商，既较好地满足了消费者的通信需求，又促进了有效竞争，这表明我国电信企业的市场化进程正在逐步加快，同时使我国通信业的市场格局变得和谐。

　　FormJannarytoSeptember, the Chinese mobile telecommunication income rose by 18.3% compared to same period last year, accounting for 47.1% of total communication incomes and further propelled the growth of telecommunication operation incomes. Data shows that the communication income rose by 22.2% compared with the same period last year, which is roughly twice as much as the rate of increase for major communication incomes. The ratio of fixed local telephone income and long distance telephone income in the total operation income decreased by 2.49% and 1.06% respectively compared with the same period in 2005, while the ratio of mobile telecommunication income and data communication income rose by 2.89% and 0.71% comparatively. In the mobile telecommunication field, the mobile data services developed quickly and its income accounts for 21.0% of the total mobile telecommunication income. The usage rate of fixed local telephones decreased by 2.9% compared with the same period last year, while mobile local telephone usage increased by 33.6% comparatively, further replacing fixed local services. Among fixed local telephone usages, the ratio of wireless telephone usage in the city rose from 24.9% last year to 25.7%, while the rate of increase fall from 25.3% last year to 0.2%, which shows its role in propelling the usage of fixed local telephones is decreasing. From the statistics, the change in the competitive structure and the improvement of operation organization has allowed the users to freely choose services and operators, and that has allowed for better satisfaction of the users’ telecommunication demand and has promoted for more effective competition; this shows that the Chinese telecommunication market is becoming more civilized, which will allow the Chinese telecommunication market to become more harmonious.

　　从“量变”向“质变”飞跃

　　Fromsmallgrowthto quantum leap

　　中国通信业今天的高速发展不是靠“碰运气”碰出来的，而是通过在产业发展过程中踏踏实实地积累与努力，一步一个脚印地取得的。中国通信产业发展之初，一无资金，二无技术，三无管理经验，但政策巨大的作用及国家计划对通信业发展的统筹不仅成功解决了通信业发展的资金问题，而且为通信业发展创造了良好的空间。2006年，在国家强有力政策的调节下，我国通信业再一次实现了从“量变”到“质变”的飞跃。

　　Therapidgrowthof the Chinese telecommunication industry did not come from “luck”; it is achieved from the blood, toil and sweat, one step at a time. In the very beginning, the Chinese telecommunication industry lacked capital, technology, and management experiences, but the policies and state plans helped the telecommunication industry in getting the necessary fund as well as obtained the needed room for growth. In 2005, the Chinese telecommunication industry, under the guidance of the state policy, has achieved the metamorphosis of going from small growth to quantum leap.

　　目前，中国公众固定通信网和公众移动通信网双双成为世界第一大通信网，并仍然以高速发展。与此同时，中国的通信企业在努力争取世界市场方面也取得了可喜进展，世界各地都能见到中国电信企业活跃的身影。从周边市场起步，到发展中国家立足，再到向发达国家渗透，经过10年坚持不懈的国际化努力，以华为和中兴为代表的本土设备制造企业已越来越多地出现在国际电信巨头的“短名单”中。与此同时，以中国移动为首的我国运营商也在积极寻找机会，践行“走出去”战略，希望能在世界舞台上一展身手。我国很多电信企业正在或者即将走人“世界知名电信企业”的行列。

　　Currently,Chinesepublicfixed telecommunication network and the public mobile telecommunication network have both become the biggest in the world, and they have maintained their rapid rate of growth. At the same time, Chinese telecommunication enterprise have progressed greatly in their effort to enter the world market, they can be seen everywhere around the world. Local equipment manufacturers such as Huawei and ZTE, after 10 years effort of internationalization, where they started in the surrounding market, moved to the developing countries, and are now permeating into developed countries, are now making more frequent appearances on the “short list” of global telecommunication giants. Furthermore, Chinese operators such as China Mobile are actively looking for opportunities to implement the “going out” strategy and become a player in the world stage. Many Chinese telecommunication enterprise are or are about to become “renowned world telecommunication enterprises”.

　　我国在电信未来收益、未来用户发展、未来电信投资、电信市场增长、3G发展前景、投资社会环境等方面已经显露出极强的发展潜力，这必将给我国通信业带来新的“质变”和飞跃。

　　Chinaisdisplayingstrong potential in regard to future profit in telecommunication, development of future customers, future telecommunication investment, growth of the telecommunication market, development prospect of 4G, and overall investment environment, and it will sure propel the Chinese telecommunication industry into a quantum leap.
