There were previously two telecommunication providers from New Zealand that provided Xin's cellular service, but followed by Celestial Trade's quantum communication satellite launch that provided free wifi service to all of Xin, the two foreign competitors' businesses there were instantly crashed.
Who would be willing to pay if there is a free equivalent service?
While 20 Mbps speed was not the fastest internationally, it was enough. 20 ping of latency was an impeccable experience for most users. A value lower than that would be indistinguishable by the naked eye.
A quantum communication satellite has a life of 5-10 years with a cost around 100-200 million USD, Celestial Trade was expected to launch 36 satellites to the geosynchronous orbit. Combined with the cost of launch, Celestial Trade's yearly aerospace budget was around 1.5 billion USD.
