China Unicom is eager to arrange a discount on the 5%-10% of sales which Qualcomm, which makes the chips used in CDMA phones, usually claims. The company had originally offered Chinese manufacturers a reduction but went back on the deal after selling its manufacturing unit to Ericsson AB in March 1999.

China Unicom rolled out the first phase of its nationwide CDMA network, intended to rival the GSM network of dominant operator, China Telecom Ltd. China Unicom planned to list its shares in Hong Kong and the U.S. in the first quarter of 2000.
