Not Guilty
It is an enduring topic of how cheating operators in China are. The exaggerated comparison of China Mobile's packages in the mainland and Hong Kong has always been called the "one country, two systems" of phone bills, and with the launch of 4G packages, this "grave post" has once again been dug up as a hot spot. China Mobile's official Weibo \ blog with "You only heard...... But I didn't know ......" responded to the Hong Kong package, but netizens complained: "It's good to implement it in the mainland according to this standard." ”
"You've only heard...... But I don't know that the three-point rebuttal put forward by ......" seems reasonable, and the shortcomings mentioned in the mainland are all in the mainland package. The first point is that the package is not only 68 Hong Kong dollars, plus the license and administrative fees are 80 Hong Kong dollars, plus 12 Hong Kong dollars (about 9.6 yuan), which is basically no different from the hundreds of mainland onlookers on the same package; As for the restrictions such as a one-year commitment, no joint use with other offers, and binding a credit card, the mainland preferential packages have similar conditions or even more. The second point is that the transmission speed of unlimited traffic is up to 384kb per second, and the slow speed is clearly informed, and no matter how slow it is, it is unlimited traffic, but the 58 yuan package in the mainland is not only only 10MB of traffic and the speed is extremely slow, and there is no signal at all in many places. The third point is even more ridiculous, saying that although the call time of the Hong Kong package is 50 times that of the similar package in the mainland, it is only local and does not dare to answer at will in Shenzhen, which is as if mainland package users can answer the phone for free in Hong Kong, Hong Kong people come to the mainland or mainlanders go to Hong Kong are all going abroad, and there is no free answer when leaving the country. There are some shortcomings of the Hong Kong package, and the mainland package has all the advantages, but the advantages of low price, talk time and unlimited data that people have are none, which makes it really difficult to tell whether the mobile official Weibo really wants to explain or "high-end black".
Every time China Mobile explains, it must mention that the mainland and Hong Kong are two independent markets that adopt different strategies, and Hong Kong Mobile, as a market follower, can only adopt a low-price strategy. However, this statement is self-defeating in the newly launched 4G package, because 4G has just been born in the mainland and Hong Kong at the same time, and there are no followers in the zài market, but the Hong Kong package is half cheaper than the mainland!
Moreover, at a time when the mainland was discussing KFC's "chicken leg theory" that traffic should not be cleared on a monthly basis, China Mobile took a tough attitude towards mainland customers, but it launched a "2cm" digital jù trading platform in Hong Kong, allowing 4G users to sell unused digital package traffic to other users. The digital trading platform is a major trend that has swept the basic operators in developed countries since the launch of the virtual operator Ting. Obviously, China Mobile's differentiating strategy between the mainland and Hong Kong does not stem from the huge difference in customer demand between the two places, but rather the huge difference in the market that leads to the difference in attitudes -- Hong Kong is the region with the most fierce competition in the telecommunications operator market in Asia and even in the world, while the mainland is still in a monopoly. Therefore, in the midst of competition, China Mobile has the motivation to make improvements, improve service awareness, and take the initiative to keep up with the world trend and launch more humanized traffic processing methods to improve user experience; In the midst of monopoly, even if the public opinion in the mainland is very loud, it can still put on a posture of "love to use it and ignore it", anyway, there are only three choices, not the worst, only worse.
In China Mobile, it is not a way to fool users with the difference strategy every time, you only hear about the difference strategy, but you don't know that the biggest difference is the monopoly. In the final analysis, it is just a truth that in a monopoly or competitive market, the role of "uncle" is interchangeable between operators and consumers. Breaking the monopoly is a serious matter, otherwise this "grave post" will have to be dug up again and again.
