Container transportation from three angles

The famous economic theory has three carriages to pull the economic development in Keynes's theory, that is, investment, consumption and export, which are all closely related to our logistics and transportation industry. But in our logistics transportation, container transport will play an important role in the new era of economic development.

From the perspective of economic development, container transport plays an important role.

From a large point of view, the policy of opening up the market, proposed by the Chinese government in the fortieth years of reform and opening up, will have great opportunities for import and export trade.

According to the data published by the General Administration of Customs on China's import and export data in 2017, in 2017, the world economy had a mild recovery and the domestic economy was steadily improving, which promoted the continuous growth of foreign trade import and export in China throughout the year. According to customs statistics, the import and export value of China's goods trade was 27 trillion and 790 billion yuan in 2017, up 14.2% from 2016, reversing the previous two years' decline. Among them, exports were 15 trillion and 330 billion yuan, an increase of 10.8%; imports of 12 trillion and 460 billion yuan, an increase of 18.7%; and trade surplus of 2 trillion and 870 billion yuan. Behind these data, container transportation is indispensable.

At present, China has initially built 5 large-scale, intensive and modernized port groups in the ring Bohai, the Yangtze River Delta, the southeast coast, the Pearl River Delta and the southwest coast. In April this year, in order to further deepen the "guidance on supporting Hainan to deepen reform and opening up in an all-round way" by the Central Committee of the "one way and one way", it clearly pointed out that supporting the construction of the free trade test area of the whole island of Hainan, and supporting Hainan to gradually explore and steadily promote the construction of free trade port with Chinese characteristics, step by step, and step by step The establishment of a free trading port policy and institutional system, and the establishment of international energy, shipping bulk commodities and other trading places in Hainan, will greatly promote the development of container transport.

It can be said that container transportation is one of the main ways of international freight transportation. The trend of global economic integration determines that container transportation has been involved in the core interests of enterprises and even the lifeblood of the country.

From the perspective of logistics industry reform, container transport reform is convenient.

We can see the container transportation from the point of view of the logistics industry. The "multimodal transport" and the "car free carrier" in the hub transport are more favorable than other transportation channels.

Container transport itself is a complex transportation system project, involving a wide range, many links and great impact. The container transport system includes shipping, land, air, port, freight stations, customs, commodity inspection, shipping agency, freight forwarding companies and other units and departments concerned with container transport. It can be said that there is no shortage, so there is a foundation for multimodal container transport.

At the same time, it is convenient for container transportation to carry out multimodal transport. When container transportation is exchanged between different modes of transportation, there is no need to carry the cargo in the container, only the container is needed. This greatly improves the efficiency of the replacement operation and is suitable for the joint transportation between different modes of transportation.

As for the development of vehicle manufacturing industry, container transportation is a must.

Production determines consumption, and consumption has a major counterproductive effect on production. The development of container transportation also promotes the transformation of the products of transportation enterprises.

It can be said that the most hot topic in the first half of this year is automatic driving, and many applicable backgrounds are port transportation in container transportation.

In April 18, 2018, FAW was liberated in Qingdao port to display its latest product J7 autopilot technology. It was the first time to complete the test of the field of intelligent driving commercial vehicle. The car successfully completed a series of movements such as loading and unloading, driving, steering and so on. It can fully meet the demand of the port operation.

In May 18, 2018, Tianjin Hong Kong (Group) Co., Ltd. and China heavy-duty automobile group Co., Ltd. signed a strategic cooperation agreement. The two sides will jointly develop a pure electric automatic driving container truck to meet the needs of the port. Also in April, the car also carried out a trial run. The car was equipped with an unmanned electric truck with laser radar, high definition camera and intelligent computing unit. It completed the specified actions such as road driving, precise parking, container loading and unloading, obstacle response and so on, which realized the automatic driving level of the container from the shore to the yard. Lose.

It can be said that there is no big change in the economic structure, as long as the import and export trade importance does not decline, the container transportation should be more stable than other transport industries, and the opportunities are also attractive.
