introduction
Due to the lack of online purchases, it can only be traded offline. Moreover, if you look at the previous phone number today and buy it the next day, that good number may have been snatched away by someone else.
In the past, mobile phone numbers usually started with 138 and 139. At present, there are more than 20 mobile phone number segments, including 15 ×, 18 ×, 19 × and 17 ×. This change makes numbers less important. Today's paragraphs 138 and 139, although once very rare, are still used. These mobile numbers will appreciate in value, is your mobile number in this range?
1. How much does Chinese mainland first mobile phone cost?
Xu Feng, one of the pioneers of Chinese mainland mobile communication industry. In 1987, he became the first person to use a mobile phone, spending 20,000 yuan to buy a "big brother" phone with the number 901088.
At that time, Xu Feng was engaged in the fishery industry, and in order to contact customers, he often used telegraph, but this method was too troublesome and uncertain, and he often had to wait for a long time, missing many opportunities to make money.
By chance, he saw a Hong Kong businessman using Big Brother to contact business friends, he was fascinated by this efficient and accurate communication method, so he specially ran to the Guangzhou Post Office to buy a phone number so that he could contact his customers and business partners faster.
Among the mobile phone numbers purchased by Xu Feng, there are two auspicious numbers "9, 8, 6", which represent the meaning of prosperous business and long life. At that time, the mobile communication industry was still in its infancy, and Big Brother was regarded as a milestone in mobile communications.
Now, with the development of the times, Big Brother has been eliminated and replaced by many smartphones with complete functions and powerful signals. Although decades have passed, the number "901088" has become a cultural symbol and can no longer be used.
Second, will China's mobile phone usher in "appreciation" in the early days?
China Mobile is one of the largest mobile phone operators in China, and its number segment has also changed a lot in the past few years. Initially, there were only 139 segments, but now it has increased to 25. In contrast, Telecom and Unicom have slightly different numbers of number segments. Now, mobile 147, 150, 157, 188, and 198 prefixes have become commonly used beginnings in people's daily communication.
Since segment 134~139 has entered the ranks of the "old segment", it is difficult for new registered users to buy mobile phone numbers that begin with these numbers.
Some people have been using mobile numbers starting with 139 for more than 20 years, and these users usually don't change numbers for ease of contact. Some users refer to numbers starting with 13* as "large segments" or "gold numbers" because these numbers were rare in the past.
Many people are still interested in having consecutive numbers. Although people today do not spend thousands of dollars on mobile phone numbers with four consecutive "8s", four "9s" or the last four digits of the consecutive number, auspicious numbers are still popular. Nowadays, users can choose numbers directly online, saving them some unnecessary trouble.
It is understood that there are still people selling old online cards on some second-hand trading platforms, and the price is not cheap. This also proves that the appreciation space of some antique shops and boss shops is still very large. These numbers are small in proportion and very rare, so some buyers will add a price to their favorite numbers for better auspicious meanings.
Collecting SIM cards isn't of much use, but some people think that some of the special numbers mean different things, so they're willing to pay for them.
However, industry insiders would like to remind consumers to buy mobile phones from formal channels and not to sell them privately. Once the private sale is exposed, it will face corresponding penalties.
Mobile phone numbers are often just identifiers for contact, and they are not practical because the phone number is independent of who owns it. And the hope for a lucky number is understandable, but for most people, paying too much for that number is not worth it. Although the two number segments 138 and 139 are decreasing, they have the same functionality as other numbers.
If you are a regular customer of these two number segments, please do not change the number easily.
brief summary
Because some people will pay for getting rare numbers, and cherishing existing numbers may greatly reduce your risk. While mobile phone numbers may have severely impacted our lives, they are just the tools we use to reach people.
