Everyone, if you don’t believe it, if you really go out and take a walk, you will find that Chinese operators are all doing charity.
How old is South Korea? How big is China?
South Korea’s territory is 100,000 square kilometers, and China is 96 times that of South Korea.
Equipment suppliers and operators are inherently different companies. Even if we take operators as an example, the costs of network construction for a big country and network construction for a small country are completely different.
Let’s go and see Hong Kong. The operators in Hong Kong are extremely cheap. It’s just one city and communication is very easy to solve.
In many mountains and rural areas in China, signal towers are well-established. Some of them are really deep in the mountains and old forests. Even if a car drives for more than 100 kilometers, there is still a signal. In this kind of It will definitely be a loss for local governments to build signal towers, but can they not be built?
Can we say that these places are losing money because they are rural areas, and then they are not built, and rural people are not worthy of using mobile phones?
Even in domestic cities, there are quite a few people who are particularly weird: they insist on saying that signal towers affect their health, and they are not allowed to be built everywhere. As a result, the operators withdrew the signal towers, and the locals I found that my cell phone could not make any calls at all, and I cried and fussed. Every time I saw this kind of news, I couldn’t help but say: What do you want to do?
I really can’t laugh or cry every time I see this kind of news, and this kind of situation doesn’t just happen in one place. In many places, forced operators disguised their signal towers in various ways, pretending to be telegraph poles. They were supposed to be legal and reasonable, and their job was to provide signals to everyone, but they just pretended to be devils and entered the village.
Moreover, Korean mobile phone bills are not cheap. A SIM card costs 20,000 won, or RMB 168. This is not over yet. The cost of the SIM card itself also needs to be added to the card selection fee, of which Standard SIM card costs 5,500 won, Micro card costs 5,500 won, totaling RMB 32, Nano card costs 9,900 won, totaling RMB 58.
The domestic tariff in South Korea is 4 Korean won per second, which is 240 Korean won per minute, equivalent to RMB 1.42.
International long distance is not cheap either
< p>Korean mobile phone cards are basically package value. The cheaper ones cost 240 yuan a month, which is generally 50,000 won, which is only 297 yuan.
You know how much your monthly phone bill is in China, so I won’t tell you.

Answer questions in this industry when invited.
There is no need to be arrogant or belittle oneself. South Korea’s communications industry does have something that China can learn from, but it is not as good as imagined. As for how South Korea's communication technology compares with Huawei's, this actually has nothing to do with network speed. From a global perspective, equipment from the communication manufacturing industry is purchased, that is, equipment from a few major manufacturers. In fact, there is no very strict standard for the various Internet speeds published around the world.
Take speed measurement as an example. The speed measurement itself requires the selection of the server. There is a big difference here. The location of the server is the direct reason that determines the speed of the speed measurement. No company has the ability to deploy speed testing servers around the world, so these speed testing indicators only have some reference value, but their accuracy is not very high.
For example, some foreign survey companies measure Internet speed based on the speed of opening software such as Facebook. However, it is obvious that there will be big problems when accessing these websites in China.
China has a vast territory and rich resources, but the coverage of wired broadband and wireless broadband is good. That is to say, even in very remote places, you can still access the Internet. This is also a state-owned enterprise with the three major domestic operators. related to nature.
Although it is possible to access the Internet in remote areas, this will undoubtedly lower the average test speed in terms of the overall value of the speed test. Those foreign operators are all private companies, and their main service areas are concentrated in urban hotspots. Many places in rural areas and other areas do not have wired broadband or wireless broadband. They cannot sample and there is no speed measurement. In this way, their average network speed will be lower. Much faster.
Speaking of average Internet speed, the United States is faster than China. This is largely nonsense. Many places in the United States have no signal and cannot even make calls. However, this has also been The Internet speed test is covered up and I can’t even access the Internet, so how can it be average? China has a large population and too many users per unit area, which also slows down the Internet speed.
The network’s carrying capacity is limited, and it is impossible to increase the capacity indefinitely. China has too many users per unit area, and multiple users share resources, which also slows down the speed of a single user. Some countries with fast Internet speeds are often small in area and with a small population. There are also differences here.
South Korea’s communications industry does have something that China can learn from, but South Korea’s network tariffs are much higher than those in China. And as far as wireless communications are concerned, South Korea’s base station construction is particularly difficult for the three major operators. Shang is envious.
The Internet speed in South Korea is faster than that in China, but the charges are also much higher than in China. Many people in China think that Internet access in China is expensive, but if they could travel abroad, they wouldn't think so. Globally speaking, in fact, China's broadband and wireless prices are very low.
Many people may want to argue about income, but you must know that the current procurement of telecommunications equipment is globally sourced. As far as the unit price of equipment is concerned, it is impossible for Chinese people to sell it because their income is low. If I give you RMB 10,000, and the income from abroad is high, I will sell you the equipment for US$10,000. The price of the equipment is the same. It is unrealistic to compare it with any income.
Moreover, Wireless Korea has fast speeds, and another thing that is very enviable by the three major domestic operators is that Korean base stations can be built in densely populated residential areas. When I was studying in South Korea, I often found many base stations hanging outdoors that you could touch with your hand, but you would never even think about this in China.
Can you imagine the consequences of having such a base station in China? The current global communications industry is basically just a few large communications equipment manufacturers, and the equipment purchased by each country is basically the same. Therefore, South Korea's fast Internet speed has nothing to do with the comparison between Samsung and Huawei.
The current global communications manufacturing industry is mainly composed of four or five giants, namely Huawei, Nokia, Ericsson, ZTE, plus a fixed-line Cisco. South Korea's Samsung is blocked overseas, and there are still some domestic devices, so that's basically it.
As for South Korean network equipment, Huawei also has a part of the market share, and Samsung does not completely monopolize the market in South Korea.
All in all, South Korea’s national network speed is faster than that in China, and it has nothing to do with the comparison of communication capabilities between South Korea’s Samsung and Huawei. Due to its large area and large population, it still suffers in national internet speed tests.
We were surprised to find that South Korea’s Internet speed ranked first, but except for Hong Kong, China, the domestic Internet speed rankings were not on the list.
The characteristics of South Korea are "all Korean." For example, some Korean scholars believe that Zhu Yuanzhang was also from South Korea. He traveled across mountains and rivers to China and eventually founded the Ming Dynasty. So, is South Korea’s technology really the best in the world now?
The above is the Internet speed ranking in 2017. Why is there such an obvious difference in Internet speed? Is South Korea really better in technology?
The reason why South Korea ranks first in network speed is actually not surprising at all if we think about it carefully.
Population - 051.64 million people
Area of ??South Korea - 99,600 square kilometers
1. Population relative to China and other countries The country is relatively small, and there are actually not that many 4G users.
2. South Korea’s land area is relatively small, which determines the size of the same area. The number of base stations in South Korea may be the same as that in China. However, the distance between our 4G base stations may be different, which leads to the lack of 4G in South Korea. Internet speed is fast.
Huawei ranked first with a total of 3,325 pieces, followed by Samsung with 2,846 pieces, LG ranked third with 2,463 pieces, followed by Nokia, Alcatel-Lucent, ZTE, Ericsson, Qualcomm and Intel. It can be seen that South Korea is not far behind Huawei, Samsung, and LG. They all have relatively strong advantages. It is just because of Huawei's strong research and high degree of autonomy that it is ahead of Samsung. However, Samsung ranks second. This is not easy for you. ignore.
We still have to have a sense of urgency. We cannot think that our technology is powerful just because we have many patents. After all, in the Internet speed comparison, we still have some way to catch up!
The main reason: South Korea’s land area is not very large, so it is easier to cover. South Korea’s internet speed
South Korea’s internet speed is the highest in the world? Yes!
Let’s take a look at the performance of 4G:
In this case, we see that South Korea’s speed is indeed fast. Why is South Korea’s internet speed so fast?
①The land area is not large. South Korea’s land area is about 100,000 square kilometers, which is 1/96 of ours. The difficulty of their construction is relatively low.
Moreover, many of their populations live in relatively concentrated areas, so construction is easier.
② Government promotion. South Korea's broadband speed has also promoted "fiber to the home". The investment in this project is US$24.5 billion, of which the South Korean government will bear US$1.5 billion. The South Korean government has been vigorously promoting it.
③ South Korea’s technology is advanced. Some people say, isn’t it true that our technology is advanced? No, we are just advanced in 5G.
However, network construction is long-term, and the technology currently used is theirs. Our leading 5G technology has not yet been fully popularized. There is a time lag here.
④ South Korea’s Internet speed is not always the best. The well-known speed test website Ookla released the global Internet speed test report "Speedtest Global Index" for November 2017. Singapore is number one!
Summary
South Korea has a small land area, which is a congenital advantage; the South Korean government promotes informatization and spends money on a large scale, so the Internet speed is naturally very fast. ; The existing technology is leading in countries such as South Korea. Our leading 5G technology has yet to be popularized, and there is a time lag.
Try putting his equipment in China. How many of them are online? How many people are online in China? It’s so pathetic that you don’t understand such a simple truth! We need to be knowledgeable trolls and don’t make people laugh!
I just want to know, who told you that South Korea’s Internet speed has been the first in the world for many years? In the ranking of Western countries, China’s Internet speed has always been low, but during this epidemic, the networks of many Western countries collapsed. . Don’t you know whether China’s Internet speed is good or fast?
Just like cars running on the highway, how many cars can there be in South Korea? How many vehicles will China have? I think the pace of development is okay. The main reason is the speed at which operators invest in equipment upgrades. To be honest, our Internet speed is sufficient. For such a big country, it can reach this level. Many places in many countries do not have Internet, but our rural areas have it. So be satisfied! ! !
For things like this, we really don’t need to belittle ourselves. South Korea’s current Internet speed is indeed very good, but there are many reasons for this, and this is different from South Korea’s. In fact, communication technology does not have much to do with it. The main factors are its land and population, so let’s talk about it with everyone.
South Korea's Internet speed ranks first in the world. In fact, the main reason lies in its land area and population.
Many people have seen that South Korea's Internet speed ranks second in the global Internet speed rankings. Ranking first, you may think that South Korea's communication technology is not very developed. In fact, there is really no need to belittle ourselves in this matter.
We can take a look at the land area of ??South Korea, which is only 100,200 square kilometers. This area is actually only about the same area as a province in our country. Then we can imagine that the number and density of base stations built in such a small area are much larger than those in China. This is determined by its land area.
Therefore, the smaller the construction area is to build a base station, the less difficult it will be to use. Another aspect is the population of South Korea. According to statistics, South Korea’s total *** The population is only about 500 million, which is far lower than the population of China, and most of the population is distributed in South Korea's cities.
In terms of population and land area, the construction of communication base stations in South Korea is much simpler than that of other countries, and we can also see it from a national network speed ranking. Countries with relatively fast internet speeds are undoubtedly those with small land area and population. South Korea attaches great importance to the communication industry and technology, and vigorously promotes communication.
In fact, what we mentioned above are basically objective factors, such as land area and population. It is difficult to change these aspects, but the subjective factor is South Korea's emphasis on the communications industry.
At the beginning of this century, South Korea had already developed broadband and optical fiber as its national strategy. This has elevated an industry to the level of a national strategy, so there will definitely be one. A relatively big development.
In addition, in 2003, South Korea also formulated a plan called "IT839 Plan". This plan is actually very simple, that is, the cross-band popularization of optical fiber will be implemented nationwide, which is very important for a country. It is of great constructive significance to the country.
South Korea’s Internet speed ranking first has nothing to do with South Korea’s communication technology. The core factors are only related to South Korea’s land area, population and gathering places. The rest is the vigorous promotion of the South Korean government.
1. Land and population factors:
1. Land area, South Korea’s land area is 100,200 square kilometers, which is only equivalent to the area of ??Jiangsu Province in my country. In such a provincial area Building a broadband network is much less difficult.
2. Population and gathering places: South Korea has a total population of only 50 million, and these people are basically concentrated in urban areas, accounting for 90% of the population. , and at least 1/5 of the urban population is only in the Seoul area, accounting for about 10 million, and the rest are distributed in most Korean cities. According to previous data, urban areas where 90% of South Korea's population is located only account for 16% of the land area, and urban residential areas only account for 2.4% of the land area.
According to the above data, it is much easier to build communication networks in South Korea. It only requires large-scale construction in urban areas. In other words, our network only needs to cover these areas. In fact, we can look at the countries with the fastest Internet speeds in the world. They are basically small countries or countries with concentrated/mainly cities. Let’s take a look at the global Internet speed test report in November 2017. The top four are Singapore, Iceland, Hong Kong, and South Korea. Among them, my country’s Macau ranks seventh. You can see that they are all small countries.
2. The government vigorously promotes:
Of course, in addition to the favorable conditions of the concentration of small cities in the country, the Korean government has This aspect has also been vigorously promoted. As early as the beginning of the 21st century, South Korea promoted the development of optical fiber broadband as a national strategy. In 2003, the Korean government formulated the IT839 plan to fully implement fiber optic broadband. In 2004, it launched the six-year BNC plan and prepared to invest more than 80 billion US dollars to build a national communication network. It can be seen that South Korea not only built fiber optic broadband early, but also invested huge amounts of money to promote it.
In addition to the government's investment in construction, it also provides large financial subsidies to broadband operators and users. For example, it spends billions of dollars to build fiber optic backbones so that broadband can enter every school and every government office. Another billion dollars have been spent. By allowing operators to connect lines to every household, these initiatives significantly reduce costs for suppliers and consumers.
In a word, the Korean government is implementing fiber optic broadband as a national strategy and has invested huge amounts of money.
Under the influence of the above two factors, it is not enough for South Korea to have the world's highest Internet speed. It is convenient to build in a small land and has a large amount of government investment. It is not possible even if it is not fast. In fact, Japan is similar to South Korea. Japan also implemented fiber-optic broadband construction as a national strategy. Therefore, Japan's Internet speed is not slow, and it often ranks among the best in global rankings.

South Korea’s Internet speed has been ranked first for many years, but this does not mean that South Korea’s communication level is first. A region's fast internet speed is affected by many factors.
I believe everyone who has been to South Korea knows that South Korea is not big and has not many people. Taking 5G as an example, China Mobile alone has invested 100 billion yuan this year. If China Mobile’s 100 billion investment is in South Korea, then South Korea’s 5G will definitely be the fastest in the world, bar none.
Due to the small size of the country, the cost of communication construction is low. Moreover, the densely populated areas in South Korea are relatively concentrated, which is also very beneficial to network construction. In comparison, our country covers more than 9.6 million square kilometers, including places like Mount Everest with an altitude of more than 8,000 meters, as well as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen with relatively high population density.
Whether it is the cost of network construction or the construction speed, we have no advantage compared with South Korea. More importantly, there are more than 900 million domestic Internet users, while the number of Korean Internet users is only 35 million. Since the number of Internet users is smaller, South Korea’s Internet speed is inevitable.
In addition, although Huawei's communication technology is leading, there is not much difference in network speed among global communication technologies. The differences between different communication equipment are mainly reflected in cost, power consumption and reliability.
In short, South Korea’s Internet speed is fast, firstly because of its small population, and secondly because South Korea’s network construction is relatively advanced. Among them, the current situation of small population is the biggest advantage of South Korea's leading Internet speed.
