No iPhone in China: China Unicom Says no Plans to Sell Apple's iPhone
China Unicom Ltd (0762.HK: Quote, Profile , Research), the smaller of the country's two mobile operators, said on Wednesday it had no immediate plans to sell Apple Inc's (AAPL.O: Quote, Profile , Research) iPhones in China.
Unicom's executive director, Li Zhengmao, said his firm had not yet entered talks with the U.S. company, but could be open to the idea.
"Right now, we don't have any plans to introduce Apple's iPhones in China," Li told reporters on the sidelines of a conference in Macau. "But of course, we're always willing to discuss a good business opportunity if it presents itself," he said.
"As for whether we'll talk about iPhones with Apple, you'll have to ask Apple."
On Tuesday, bigger rival China Mobile's (0941.HK: Quote, Profile , Research) chief executive Wang Jianzhou said his company was holding talks with Apple about offering iPhones in China, but brushed off a suggestion that an agreement might come soon.
