The number of cell phone and fixed phone subscribers in China exceeded 800 million at the end of 2006, Minister of Information Industry Wang Xudong said here Wednesday.
The country's information industry reported a sales revenue of more than 4 trillion yuan (512.8 billion U.S. dollars), Wang said.
The information industry also scored a total export of over 300 billion U.S. dollars last year, the minister said in an exclusive interview with Xinhua.
The number of Internet subscribers has surpassed 130 million, he added.
However, the minister said, the information industry is still in lack of essential competitive power, and it is an pressing job to improve the capability for innovation.
