The second reorganization: "three big and two small". On May 16, 2000, China Mobile Communications Corporation was listed. On May 17, 2000, China Telecom Group was listed. As a result, China Telecom, China Mobile, China Unicom, Jitong and Netcom have formed a "three big and two small" business structure.

The third reorganization: "four big and two small". On May 16, 2002, the final North-South split scheme of China Telecom was determined, and the new China Telecom Group and China Netcom Group were formally established. New China Telecom Group has jurisdiction over 2 1 province in the south, and 70% of the national long-distance trunk lines. Jitong merged with telecom companies in ten northern provinces and China Netcom to form China Network Communication Group Company, which governs the telecom business operation in ten northern provinces and cities and 30% of the national long-distance trunk lines. As a result, a competitive pattern of "four big and two small" has been formed. The big four are China Mobile, China Telecom, China Netcom and China Unicom, and the small two are China Weitong and China Tietong. In June 2003, Jitong was merged into Netcom Group according to the State Council Decree No.36. In June 2003, 5438+065438+ 10, Netcom International Company was listed.

With the irresistible trend of "one dominant company" in China Mobile, the fourth telecom restructuring began in 2004. From the spread of the "42" and "63" splitting schemes to the final settlement of the "three-legged" pattern on May 24, 2008, the three operators entered the era of full-service competition, thus completing the fourth telecom restructuring in China.
