Converting phone credits directly into tokens, this really brings the barrier to access the large model down to rock bottom. The operators are indeed ruthless in their approach.

Shanghai Telecom announced that it is rolling out Token computing power services for users in Shanghai, becoming the first operator in Shanghai to publish Token computing power rate plans. The service offers two billing methods: per-usage ordering and on-demand discounts. 1 yuan corresponds to 250,000 quota points, and it supports payment via mobile phone bills. After purchase, users can call 30+ mainstream large models through a standard API, covering text and multimodal applications. For example, if you purchase 2.5 million quota points for 10 yuan, it can roughly support automatic summarization of 100 electronic books with 100,000 words each.
