Hi Sven I have to say your Chinese is great, especially you can really type it rather than only speaking. Let me know if any thing I can help. :)
Actually we decide to use area code plus serial number as unique id if we can create our own. Not only the situation in China is little different with other countries, but even in the relative branches of government might have different id system. But still thanks for all your advice.
