电信行业既有天然垄断的属性,又有自由竞争的余地和要求,既关系国家战略,又事关民生利益。“从最近一二十年世界各国电信业竞争的实践看,第四家运营商很难存活”。中国科学院声学研究所研究员侯自强指出,重组以后的三家运营商格局完全符合国际经验。而且国际上对于垄断划分是:一家肯定是垄断,二家是双寡头垄断,三家就可以形成竞争了。然而理论上成立的竞争局面却未必能在现实中兑现。 The telecom industry not only has the property of natural monopoly but also has the room and the demand for free competition. It not only concerns the national strategy but also affects the interests of people’s livelihood. “From the practice of telecommunication competition in various countries in the world in the recent one or two decades, the fourth operator is hard to survive.” Hou Ziqiang, a researcher at the Institute of Acoustics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, pointed out that the three operators after the reorganization are fully in line with international experience. And the international division of monopoly is: one must be a monopoly, two duopoly, the three can form a competition. However, the competitive situation theoretically established may not be realized in reality.
