Total Investment of China to Implement Initial
Informalization by 2020

• Computer 3.900Trillion RMB
• Internet Host and Systems 117.000Trillion
  RMB
• Communication 6.100Trillion RMB
• Digital TV 1.950Trillion RMB
• Total
  128.950Trillion RMB
• It is necessary to lower down the cost of
  informalization greatly by using resource sharing
  and cooperative working
