2017 has passed, and a large wave of year-end summaries have been released frequently. Recently, the final test of the three major operators has been released, which is also the end of 2017. It is reported that the report indicates that the number of mobile 4G users has increased, and the broadband business has encountered the ceiling. China Telecom and China Unicom have undoubtedly been affected.
January 23rd news (Lace) With the announcement of China Telecom's December operating data, the year-end transcripts of the three major operators in 2017 have been released. As the “end-of-term exam†in 2017, the performances of the three major operators are all good, and it can be said that it is a perfect ending for 2017.
In December, China Mobile's 4G subscribers grew at an alarming rate, which was three times that of the previous month (November). China Telecom's fixed-line broadband has also grown steadily, retaining the first throne. However, the problem cannot be ignored. China Mobile's broadband business is expected to be high. Many people in the industry believe that in 2017, China Mobile's broadband business will definitely surpass China Telecom and win the double champion of 4G business and broadband business, but it is affected by the big environment. China Mobile is still more than 20 million users compared with telecommunications. This also shows that the market dividend is declining and users are being divided up. It will become more and more difficult to develop broadband users.
China Unicom's fixed-line broadband subscribers experienced negative growth in December, reducing users by 964,000, which gave Unicom the last alarm. In terms of 4G, the growth of users is not as fast as in the previous months, and the aura of Internet cards is becoming dim.
China Mobile 4G users are advancing by leaps and boundsIn general, China Mobile is still a standout. Whether it is in 4G or broadband business, the increment is the most, especially for 4G users. In December, the net increase was 15.616 million, which is more than three times that of Telecom and China Unicom.
The detailed data is that in December, China Mobile's 4G subscribers increased by 15.616 million, which was a significant increase from the net increase of 5.223 million in November. The total number of users reached 647.957 billion; China Telecom's 4G subscribers increased by 4.74 million in December, the cumulative number of users It has reached 1.8204 billion households. China Unicom's 4G subscribers increased by 4.438 million in December, with a cumulative net increase of 70.325 million and 4,748,600 4G subscribers.
It is worth mentioning that China Mobile has achieved a net increase of 15.616 million in the last month of 2017, which is commendable. Many users are complaining that China Mobile's traffic charges are very high, but it is rarely transferred to the Internet, thanks to the strong signal of China Mobile's network. The data shows that the number of China Mobile base stations is 3.23 million, of which 1.79 million are 4G base stations. Of course, 4G users also have a steady stream of cash flow for China Mobile, which China Mobile says has a monthly average traffic consumption of more than 2GB for its 4G single users. It can be predicted that in 2017, China Mobile's financial report will reach a new high.
In December, China Unicom's 4G subscribers declined slightly, without the momentum of strong growth in the previous months. In 2017, China Unicom played the most successful card is the Internet card. The data shows that China Unicom and Tencent launched more than 50 million new users. China Unicom has got rid of the digital game era of low cost users in the past, and finally ushered in new users of high quality and stable network, and the foundation has been consolidated. However, the problem cannot be ignored. Although the 4G user DOU is on the rise, the ARPU value is declining, and the surge in the per-person traffic of the Internet custom card represented by the Dawang card is bound to place higher demands on the carrying capacity of China Unicom's basic network. These are all problems in front of China Unicom.
Broadband business encounters ceilingIn 2017, the biggest variable in the telecommunications industry was the broadband market. With the deep layout of China Mobile, the broadband market changed day by day.
In the last month of 2017, China Mobile's cable broadband subscribers increased by 2.548 million, a slowdown from the 3.143 million in November, with a total of 112.687 million. China Telecom's cable broadband subscribers increased by 660,000 in December 2017, accumulating 133.53 million. China Unicom's fixed-line broadband subscribers decreased by 964,000 in December, with a cumulative net increase of 1.303 million, a total of 76.539 million.
Looking at the broadband market, we can only describe it as "a joy, a few worries." Private broadband company Epp Broadband fell before its 18th birthday, and many private broadband companies shivered in this cold winter. China Telecom and China Unicom have undoubtedly also been affected. The pattern of “South Telecom and Beijing Unicom†has ended in 2017.
Among so many broadband operators, China Unicom is undoubtedly the one that has been the most affected. In December, there was a negative growth, and it was reduced by 964,000. Due to China Unicom's focused strategy, investing limited resources into faster 4G network construction and marketing, the investment in fixed-line broadband is not prominent, and the fixed-line business is highly dependent on basic investment. In addition, in the face of price wars and market competition, China Unicom is more powerless and more difficult to maintain price-sensitive users. Although China Unicom is trying to fight back, but due to various issues such as geography, publicity and the Internet, at present, this innovative model does not bring China Unicom a steady stream of user groups like the mobile Internet package.
But China Mobile did not laugh at the end, and the growth of broadband users has shown signs of slowing down. In December, China Mobile's cable broadband subscribers increased by 2.548 million, although it was still the first increase. But overall, it is still an order of magnitude different from the fixed network boss, China Telecom. The author believes that low-cost or even free broadband transmission is not a long-term strategy, and the broadband market demographic dividend is disappearing. It will become more and more difficult to grab users from competitors. If future mobile starts to charge in the broadband market. Then, the user's increment will become more slow, and China Telecom's position in the broadband market will be stronger.
2017 is over, but competition continues. As users, it is still hoped that operators will be able to introduce more policies and products that benefit the people in competition. What surprises operators will bring to us in 2018 is worth looking forward to.
