Huawei got No. 2 in China Mobile GSM bid

5/1/2007, According to news paper, in recent 2G GSM equipments bid of China Mobile, Erission, Huawei and Shanghai Alcatel-Bell were listed as top 3 suppliers. The bid totally valued near 35billion RMB. The final news about this bid will be announced in mid of May.
Huawei's victory is claimed as a breakthrough for local supplier in China Mobile market. Traditionally, Erission, Nokia are chief equipment supplier of China Mobile. But this time, Huawei and ZTE get nearly 25% market share, Motorola, Siemens, Nortel all lose a lot of markt share.
Clearly there is a trend, Huawei and ZTE grow quicker than their international competitors, both in domestic market or overseas market. Those competitors, especially 2nd class competitors will have harder days ahead.
