　　8. The three major operators earn 365 million a day

　　The three major telecom operators made a total net profit of 133.326 billion yuan in 2017, with an average daily profit of about 365 million yuan, but the difference between these three companies is very big. China Mobile's net profit was 114.3 billion yuan, the only one. China Telecom's net profit was 18.6 billion yuan, while China Unicom's net profit was only 430 million yuan. In such a big country, there are only three operators, which are basically monopoly operations. But at least I hope that they can compete fully: First, allow the number to be transferred to the network as soon as possible; Second, further increase free WIFI services; Third, appropriately introduce foreign telecom operators to strengthen competition!
