Jinan, Xinhua News Agency (reporter Zhang Zhongren and Shao Luwen): In the spring and summer, the reporter recently interviewed in Shandong and saw the "practical map" of cost reduction and efficiency increase of logistics in many places according to local conditions, so that idle traffic resources can be "re employed"; A wide range of domestic goods rely on logistics to reduce costs, cross mountains and seas, and go to the world...... Shandong takes logistics cost reduction and efficiency increase as the joint point to solve multiple problems, and the results are preliminary.

Change from traditional links to new ones

In the dumper operation area of Liangshan Port, Jining City, as cars were steadily picked up by the dumper, coal from Watang Town, Xingxian County, Shanxi Province poured out here and slowly "walked" onto the fully enclosed coal conveying belt corridor. As the largest inland port to the north of the Yangtze River and one of the important hubs for the transportation of coal from the west to the east, the entire port area is free of road ash and air exhaust, and 23 electric trucks and 100 LNG trucks pass in an orderly manner.

"A few years ago, truck exhaust and scattered coal ash rose against the wind in the port area, forming bursts of 'black fog', which is more painful for coal and myself." Zhang Di, manager of Liangshan Port Production Technology Department, sighed. Now, dry fog dust suppression system, new energy trucks, etc., make them no longer look at "coal". "The annual value of the coal slag recycled by the negative pressure car cleaner alone is 6.7 million yuan," said Zhang Di.

At the Dongjia Town Business Department of Jinan Railway Logistics Center, containers loaded with 54 007K tractors were loaded in order and sent directly to Kustanai, Kazakhstan. "The railway cooperates with the manufacturer to improve the loading method, disassembling the tractor into three parts: tire, shed, and body. Through the design of special bearing brackets, the loading space of standard containers is perfectly matched. The cost is reduced visually, and the transportation efficiency is improved." Liang Jihe, the loading and unloading director of the Dongjia Town Business Department of Jinan Railway Logistics Center, said.

Lai Fengbo, director of Shandong Transportation and Regional Development Research Center, said: "Large scale equipment upgrading and traditional link optimization are important supporting means to reduce logistics costs, improve logistics efficiency, and reshape logistics ecology. It is of great significance for modern logistics system to optimize the whole chain system, and make multi-level rational layout."

Emerging models emerge

Recently, 130 railway 35t wide body boxes with coke dry quenching were loaded and shipped from Rizhao Port, Shandong Port, unloaded at Xiamen Port, and then transported to Fujian Sanbao Iron&Steel Co., Ltd. via short distance railway without unpacking or changing.

"This' one box system 'logistics model has realized one commodity inspection and one entrustment, reduced the comprehensive logistics cost, avoided the possible dust pollution in the process of unpacking and reloading, and can return boxes at the nearby railway station after unloading in the factory, which also meets our' one box direct delivery 'demand." The head of Sanbao Steel in port said, "one box system" Compared with traditional transportation, it can save nearly 6 hours of coke transportation and reduce 3% of cargo damage and shortage.

Thanks to the rapid development of cross-border e-commerce and logistics transportation, "people sit at home and goods come from all directions" has become a "small fortune" for consumers everywhere. In Leling City, Zhang Baozhu, the driver of the "Integrated Development of Passenger, Freight and Mail · Special Postal Express", drove to the Zhuji Town Postal Express receiving and dispatching station, carefully checked the bill of lading and counted the parcels with the staff, and then continued to move to the next receiving and dispatching station after the handover.

"Previously, the postal company outsources this business at an annual cost of more than 400000 yuan. Now, express parcels are transported by public transport, down to more than 200000 yuan, which not only increases the revenue of public transport companies and drivers, but also achieves win-win cooperation in mail delivery," said Zhao Fuchen, director of Leling Post Administration.

At present, 85 counties in Shandong Province have opened the rural passenger cargo mail integrated development business. "Through the integrated development of passenger, freight and mail, the cost of logistics' entering the village 'has been reduced, the utilization rate of urban and rural public transport has been increased, and the problem of' difficult to pick up and send 'for people in remote villages has been solved, and the cost of sending has been reduced by 25% - 35%," said the relevant person in charge of Shandong Provincial Department of Transport.

"Service" releases economic potential

In recent years, as an efficient and economic form of logistics, sea rail intermodal transport has continued to serve the economy at home and abroad, ensuring two-way economic cooperation between the east and the west.

On April 30, a "Japan South Korea Land Sea Express" full of industrial supplies such as auto parts and mechanical parts set off from the multimodal transport center of Qingdao Shanghe Demonstration Zone with a whistle. "The goods are transported by sea to Huangdao Port via Incheon Port, South Korea, and then transported by Jiaohuang train to the station for consolidation and shipment after unloading. It is expected to arrive at Bulundai Station in Kazakhstan in seven days." Man Kun, chairman of Shandong High speed Qilu Investment Development Co., Ltd., introduced that the route adopts the transportation structure of sea rail combined transportation, and the railway, port and other units jointly promote the optimization of goods storage, railway freight Station operation cost, driving the reduction of whole process logistics cost by 9.5%.

Many logistics enterprises in Shandong have built a supply chain service system relying on ports, transforming from "operators" to "service providers". "The operation center of the station in Qingdao has reduced the average time to pick up containers from 25.2 minutes to 17.7 minutes by taking measures such as direct shop and direct delivery. Since this year, the average monthly volume of containers received and sent has reached 57000 TEUs, saving more than 2 million yuan in freight." Wang Wei, chairman of Shandong Port Land and Sea International Logistics Group, said.

The relevant person in charge of Shandong Provincial Department of Transportation said that they actively promoted the in-depth integration of transportation logistics with advanced manufacturing, modern agriculture, strategic emerging industries, cross-border trade, and innovated and integrated logistics supply chain integrated service mode. Looking at Shandong, logistics is moving from "blueprint" to "construction drawing" to provide strong support and guarantee for the construction of a modern province.
