Province of the “two sessions” period, as a wireless city construction of a key witness and the promoter of the NPC, China Mobile Guangdong, General Manager Xu interview with this newspaper revealed that the next five years, China Mobile Guangdong, the company will invest 10 billion to finance, “TD + W LA N” technological advantages, to achieve the Pearl River Delta city of wireless broadband coverage to 100% of the first to create a wireless city group in the country, the full boost “the wisdom of Guangdong” construction.

The new road of building a wireless city group

Reporter: As the National People’s Congress, you have suggested on many occasions to speed up the construction of a wireless city, can you talk about your minds?

Xu: Wireless city refers to the use of one or more wireless broadband access technologies, for the whole city or its major regions anywhere, anytime on-demand information technology and Internet access for the public, businesses, foreign visitors and tourists , government agencies provide safe, convenient, quick and cost-effective wireless broadband applications services to the city.

After wireless city known as “water, electricity, gas, road” after the fifth largest city in public infrastructure. Construction of municipal wireless cities in the PRD, based on the Pearl River Delta will become a wireless city group side, “anytime, anywhere on-demand,” the wisdom of cyberspace.

This will not only enhance the quality of life of modern people, but also will greatly speed up the province, “Industrialization and Information” and “manufacturing and service industries”, “Internet and the Internet of Things,” the integration and enhance the future development of Guangdong’s core competitiveness. Relying on a wireless city group possess the means of modern information, can promote Guangdong’s advanced manufacturing industry, modern service industry development.

On the one hand, available information means to accelerate the automobile, shipbuilding, machinery and equipment and other key sectors of information technology to transform and enhance product value and core competitiveness of enterprises.

International wireless city construction precedent tells us that the Government alone, operations, business, or the power of the user’s own it is impossible to achieve the “wireless city” of sustainable development, not to mention “wireless city group.”

In view of this, as mobile operators, we advocate the building of wireless city should be “government-led, to operators as the main chain to participate.” Early, we Dongguan, Zhongshan, Jiangmen, Zhuhai pilot for the pilot cities, focusing on build a single wireless city.At present, the building of regional characteristics, by beads in the Pearl River Delta River, Guangzhou and Foshan Chao, deep Wan Hui 3 wireless metropolitan area for each of the metropolitan area wireless broadband connected together to form the Pearl River Delta city group.

In particular, the work, previously fixed in the office to complete the transaction, after discharging their official duties anytime, anywhere, send e-mail, scheduling; life, a cell phone in hand, you can freely carry out catering, tourism, medical treatment, stocks, shopping; learning, books and classrooms will not be further restrictions on holding a cell phone can learn English, look at business forum; entertainment, play games, listen to music, watching movies would be a demand for anytime, anywhere.

For example, in Guangzhou, China’s first mobile phone emerged subway ticket, government portals, wireless pedestrian street, etc., as well as in Dongguan “intelligent health management” to provide an appointment for registration, treatment information, medical and other services, wireless video, Zhuhai Wireless Intelligent Transportation intelligence systems, etc., has given tens of millions of people experience the life of wireless information.

Blackberry into China signed a formal Personal Digital Market

Daily News (EU Taotao) yesterday, BlackBerry (BlackBerry) mobile phone maker RIM signed an agreement with Digital China, which became a BlackBerry smart phones in the Chinese market distributors. Although the two partners is not a positive attitude, but this signing has meant Blackberry opened a prelude to entry into the Chinese market.

At yesterday’s signing the scene, RIM Co-CEO Jame Balsillie bluntly, Digital China in the Chinese market the existing sales channels, will help the company in the Chinese market to promote BlackBerry. Reporter was informed that, in order to open up the situation in the Chinese market as soon as possible, in addition to the cooperation with Digital China, James In the course of this visit will also work with China Mobile chairman Wang Jianzhou talks and will be announced today a new strategic cooperation agreement.

For and RIM’s co-operation, Digital Consumer Strategy Part President Wang Huamao revealed that becoming a distributor of BlackBerry in China will be followed through the channels across the country to sell BlackBerry cell phones, even the telecom operators will also benefit from Digital China getting goods.

With the original Pushmail (push mail) services, BlackBerry is currently the number of users worldwide reached 36 million, and occupy the U.S. smart phone market, the first position.Users in China, waiting for years later, in May 2006, RIM and China Mobile signed a cooperation agreement to sights to China’s business user groups, especially those multinational companies in China branch offices.

Over the past three years, after the BlackBerry progress in the Chinese market does not achieve the desired effect, in the high-end market share does not take much. The reason for the BlackBerry service in the high tariff is an important factor in causing this situation. At present, only for the Mainland China Mobile launched the BlackBerry users a choice of three packages, monthly minimum fees for 398 yuan. In addition, users through China Mobile to buy the number of BlackBerry models are rarely, buying natural enthusiasm is not high.

Faced with high tariff and mobile phone types of deprivation, some of BlackBerry fans will be transferred to the gray market perspective, this demand makes the parallel BlackBerry and other places in Zhongguancun, once hot. However, the enthusiasts to buy parallel imports, BlackBerry, you can not use to feature BlackBerry services and experience is bound to decrease.

In order to improve this unfavorable situation, RIM this year, China was spun off from the Asia-Pacific region, and start are familiar with the Chinese market as China’s president, Rui Xie, this co-operation with Digital China is an important one of the measures. After taking the helm, Xie Rui has publicly said that the large enterprises, SMEs and individual users, will be RIM’s business in the Chinese market to expand the target audience, which for the co-operation with Digital China has laid a hint.

It is noteworthy that, in order to enhance the sales of BlackBerry, RIM in the Chinese market and the telecom operators have also been adjusted cooperation strategy. It is reported that, while continuing to maintain co-operation with China Mobile at the same time, RIM will soon be successively with China Telecom, and China Unicom to launch related products.

It seems in the industry, RIM co-operation with Digital China Mainland is expected to bring down BlackBerry services. Some analysts pointed out that Digital China to join, breaking the domestic users only through the telecom operators to buy BlackBerry bondage; the other hand, telecom operators, BlackBerry users have a higher ARPU (average revenue per user ) values, in order to compete for such high-end users, telecom operators will inevitably set up on the tariff adjustment, this will probably be the birth of a BlackBerry mobile phones and services, price war.
