    When i i read chinese chinese novel especially entertainment and showbiz genre, there are online comment from fan in the novel and i always found the

    Ex:
    Fan 1: i want to marry star 1 , +1
    Fan 2: i want to marry star 1,+10086

    Why they like to use +10086, why not +10088 or +10000 ,,are there a specific meaning or is there just a random number and i just overthinking, but i also
    found several showbiz novel use the same number, it mean something in chinese????

    any opinion on this?

    It is one of the most commonly used phone number in mainland China. Customers of China Mobile dial 10086 or send message to it for services.

    It's the customer service number of China Mobile, most people type 10086 and then 1 to check their phone bill

    It's just a familiar number XD

    Hm? I think people used XD long before LOL? I'm not sure, though, but XD is more intuitive to me than LOL

    +1 = I agree with you

    +10086 = I very agree with you

    That's what I know (my Chinese sucks). I think 10086 is number for China unicom customers service if I'm not mistaken, and the way Chinese identified each other in internet (?)

    +1
    +2
    +10086
