China's Telecommunications Market and Game Theory

摘要

China's telecoms industry has been in a booming period since last decade and Chinese telecom firms have been started to reorganize in recent years. But it should not be neglected that there still exists excess competition, for instance 'price war' between different operators, which has negative influence on the development of the whole Chinese telecom market. In order to keep the quick pace of the telecom industry, it's urgent task to find a way to adjust the relationship between the competitors in the process of competition and cooperation. Game theory as a theory or a methodology influences almost every aspect in competition. This paper will apply game theory to analyze the competition and cooperation between operators and try to find a measure to promote the competitive environment for China's telecom firms.
