At the ICT China High Level Forum on September 20, Sha Yuejia, vice president of China Mobile, said that China Mobile had proposed the large connections strategy to create a new situation for the digital industry. He estimated connections of China Mobile in 2020 will double the number of 2015.

It is predicted that the global connections will hit 50 billion by 2020 with 10 billion in China, 5 times that of 2015. Digital services will generate new markets of trillion-level connections in the aspects of smart city, intelligent manufacturing, smart home, transportation and other vertical fields. China's domestic IoE market is expected to achieve 1 trillion by 2020.

The large connections strategy, according to the vice president, refers to expanding connection scale, optimizing connection services and making stronger connection applications.

To expand connection scale, China Mobile will promote the development toward wired and full connection, extend connection objects from individuals to homes, enterprises and IoE. By the end of August this year, China Mobile's 4G subscribers have exceeded 460 million, with base stations approaching 1.4 million and DOU reaching 950 MB. Sha Yuejia believed China Mobile will have 500 million 4G subscribers & 70 million broadband subscribers, and welcome considerable increase in IoT connections at the end of the year.

Optimize connection services means making the connection services evolve from pipeline access to platform-level connection and end-to-end infrastructure services and achieving longitudinal extension of connection services. China Mobile will provide end-to-end connection services in the next five years, including chip module, intelligent hardware, intelligent management platform and cloud, to meet the demands of massive connection management, complex computing management, safety & reliable security, real time operation & maintenance.

In order to achieve substantial breakthroughs in connection applications, China Mobile will extend connection applications from information consumption to digital life and manufacturing services in vertical industries. The operator will further provide services in seven vertical industries, create several billion-level vertical application solutions by means of pushing digital production with informatization, including transportation & logistics, energy & power, industrial manufacturing and others.
