Some branches of neoclassical economics claim that no matter when a government interferes with the economy and attempts to spur economic growth, ultimately it will result in market distortions and failure. However, the Chinese economic miracle and China's rising standing in the world have attracted the attention of the world, proving that developing countries can following another path. Justin Yifu Lin's New Structural economics provides us with new concepts, such as industrial upgrading, transaction costs and strategic industries, that can form a new theoretical base with which to analyze the economic problems of developing countries. Through the perspective of New Structural Economics, this paper analyzes the Chinese state-owned economic system, specifically that of the telecommunications industry. This paper utilizes two to answer two important questions: 1) In order to explore whether the Chinese telecommunication industry's central enterprises are competitive, this paper takes a micro perspective by 8 years of data from these central enterprises' annual reports and analyzing efficiency, profitability, and other measures of performance. Afterward, the author compares this data with the other BRICS member states to further the analysis; 2) in order to prove whether economic growth and growth in mobile teledensity are causally related, this paper uses data from the Chinese Bureau of Statistics in order to build a dynamic panel dataset and then uses the Dumitresu and Hurlin (2012) granger non-causality test to explore the relationship between the two variables.
