Network infrastructure is the “main artery” of the Internet, with great outward effects.
Every technical upgrade and broadband expansion of Internet infrastructure will bring
about leapfrog increase of network popularity and a new round of development of
industrial Internet application. In recent years, China has been implementing the
strategy of “Broadband China”. Both the government and industries, through effort in
a variety of fields, are trying to develop network infrastructure at a higher speed into
intelligent infrastructure, with wide coverage and high popularity. Thus China has
seen a great rise of its broadband access capacity and set up the world’s largest 4G
network; its key Internet resources and use efficiency have increased dramatically and
Internet service quality, application level and industrial support capacity have caught
up with the world’s top level; the Initiative of Increasing the Speed while Decreasing
the Expense has been launched throughout the country, the universal broadband
telecommunication service compensation mechanism is being improved in rural and
remote areas, and the digital divide between regions has been narrowed.
