In short, no, you could not connect to China Netcom in a China-Telecom-connected Internet Cafe.

I think you might be confused about the fact that China Netcom and China Telecom provide both the
physical connection AND act as the ISP for their customers. When I was in Japan, I could pay one
company for my physical connection, but use another company as my ISP over that physical
connection.

At Hainan University, the dorms have wires for both China Netcom and for China Telecom - two
separate plates on the wall. I actually tried connecting my DSL modem to the China Telecom jack
using my China Netcom account information, but it did not work. It never got any response. There
is apparently no agreement for the other company's ISP to be available if you don't also pay them
for the physical connection.

Thus, if you went to an Internet cafe that had China Telecom, you would be on China Telecom's
network. Assuming that you could physically connect your or use wireless, you would be connecting
to the Internet cafe's network. That network would then have a router that connects to China
Telecom. However, the Internet cafe's router will likely be able to tell that your computer does
not have the Internet Cafe's billing/monitoring software, so it will not give you an IP address.
If you cannot go online, it will have nothing to do with you having or not having your own China
Telecom or China Netcom account.

If Netcom focuses on the North, and Telecom in the South, and signed a thing to not intrude others
"turf"... how come you can still find netcom services in the southern parts of china (hubei,
sichuan, hunan, fujian, etc)

Just wondering~

Could be any number of reasons. I'm not sure if they're pulling out of each others territory, or
just agreed not to expand any further

They agreed not to sign up any new phone or fixed-line broadband users, but they can still keep
existing services and offer other services like IPTV or WiMAX.
