Please accept this "prescription" for lowering blood sugar and preventing three highs.

  Editor’s note:With the rising living standards, the double pressures of life and work, and people’s irregular and unhealthy lifestyles, more and more people are troubled by chronic diseases such as hypertension, hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. What if we prevent chronic diseases?

  Three high people eat more radish skin.

  Xia Pengbin, nutritionist in charge of clinical nutrition department of Zhongda Hospital affiliated to Southeast University, pointed out that radish skin is rich in nutrition, especially suitable for people with three highs.

  In addition to vitamins and minerals, radish peel is also rich in pectin, quercetin, isothiocyanate and other active substances, which helps to regulate blood lipids, blood sugar and blood pressure to some extent, and is an ideal food for people with three highs. In addition, isothiocyanates also have certain anti-cancer effects. Radish skin is best eaten raw, which can retain more active ingredients, such as cold radish skin, pickled radish skin, sweet and sour radish skin and so on.

  Pay attention to the following points when cooking radish skin: first, if you plan to make cold radish skin, cut the skin thicker and put a layer of radish meat on it, and the mixed food will look good and delicious; Second, before the cold salad, soak the radish skin in ice water for 30 minutes, which will help to remove the odor and make it more crisp. If there is no ice, just put water directly, and the effect is slightly worse; Third, marinate the radish skin with salt for a while in advance, and the taste is better; Fourth, it’s best to eat the radish skin at one time. If you can’t finish it, you must put it in a sealed box and put it in the refrigerator, so as not to bring bad smell to the refrigerator.

  One or two cereals a day to prevent diabetes.

  According to a new joint study by Chalmers University of Science and Technology in Sweden and Danish Cancer Society, eating 50 grams of whole grains (endosperm, germ and bran of rye, oats, wheat and other grains) every day can prevent type 2 diabetes.

  The researchers selected the health data of 55,000 Danes. At the beginning of the study, these people were between 50 and 65 years old. During the following 15 years, more than 7,000 people developed type 2 diabetes. The researchers first counted the total daily intake of whole grains and the types of whole grains (rye bread, oatmeal, assorted porridge, etc.), and then combined the data with the statistics of Danish National Diabetes Register for combing analysis. The results show that the people who eat the most whole grains (at least 50 grams of whole grains every day, equivalent to a small bowl of oatmeal or a piece of rye bread) have the lowest proportion of type 2 diabetes, and the less they eat, the higher the proportion. Specifically, men who eat more than one or two whole grains a day have a lower risk of getting sick than those who don’t eat at all, and women have a lower risk of getting sick.

  Researchers say that eating more whole grains is one of the most effective dietary methods to reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes. In addition, drinking coffee and eating less red meat can also play a role.

  There are "three highs", drink some cereal thick pulp.

  Many people have detected "three highs". Apart from lack of exercise, craving for delicious food and pursuing eating habits of high fat, heavy refined grains and less coarse grains are also the fundamental reasons for the high incidence of symptoms such as "three highs". Zhang Ye, director of the Nutrition Department of the 309 Hospital of the People’s Liberation Army, suggested choosing more coarse grains as your staple food.

  Zhang Ye pointed out that the dietary guidelines for China residents suggest that you should eat 250-400g of grains every day, including 50-100g of coarse grains and coarse grains. But for the "three highs" crowd, this amount needs to be added, which can account for 1/3 to 1/2 of the staple food. Compared with flour and rice, the energy supplied by coarse grains is not high, but the dietary fiber content is much higher, which hinders the absorption of fat to some extent and can reduce the concentration of low-density cholesterol and triglyceride in blood, thus reducing the risk of hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipidemia.

  Because coarse grains are more troublesome to make, it takes almost two or three hours, including the time of boiling. Zhang Ye suggested drinking thick grain pulp. When I was young, when I was cooking porridge at home, I would give the rice oil floating on the surface to children and the elderly. This layer of rice oil is actually the fat in grain, and it is mostly unsaturated fatty acid, which is very easy to absorb. Therefore, it is a very healthy diet to boil or mash coarse grains.

  How to eat the healthiest? Zhang Ye’s secret is: grain+beans+nuts. For example, black rice, black beans and black sesame seeds can be selected in winter, and the black combination of walnut powder has the function of tonifying kidney and strengthening body, and the taste and nutrition are quite good. In summer, you can choose mung bean, coix seed, lily, lotus seed and sago. For girls, you can choose rice, red beans, red dates and medlar, which have the effect of nourishing blood and calming the nerves. People with poor spleen and stomach can choose oats, wheat, peanuts, sesame and other combinations, which have the effect of strengthening the spleen and stomach, promoting digestion and resolving food stagnation. For menopausal women, you can add some soybeans, which has a good auxiliary treatment effect.

  Most people like to eat coarse grains at night. In fact, coarse grains are not easy to digest, and eating too much at dinner may affect the quality of sleep. Zhang Ye suggested that the form of thick grain pulp is easy to take and eat, and it is better to distribute it reasonably in three meals a day.

  Drink yogurt, blood sugar is good.

  A study by the research team of Lingnan University in Korea shows that the intake of yogurt is negatively correlated with the risk of diabetes, that is, the more intake, the lower the risk, among the four groups divided according to the intake. The risk of diabetes in the group with the most intake was 27% lower than that in the group with the least intake. Yogurt is also good for patients with diabetes.

  Zuo Xiaoxia, director of the Nutrition Department of the Eighth Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital, said that sugar friends usually have different degrees of intestinal microecological disorders. The level of beneficial short-chain fatty acids such as butyric acid and propionic acid produced in the intestine is low, which leads to the decrease of insulin sensitivity, the increase of blood sugar and the imbalance of glucose and lipid metabolism. Eating yogurt can effectively improve the intestinal flora of sugar friends, while drinking yogurt is simpler than supplementing probiotics. Although there are more probiotics in probiotic drinks, there are also a lot of sugar, so this kind of drinks is not suitable for sugar lovers.

  Zuo Xiaoxia suggested that sugar friends had better drink yogurt after meals, because the strong acidity of gastric acid before meals will destroy most lactic acid bacteria and reduce the effect of yogurt. Many sugar friends think that yogurt is high in sugar, but the lactose in it produces lactic acid after fermentation, which can delay gastric emptying and help control postprandial blood sugar; Even if a small amount of lactose remains, it will be decomposed and absorbed in the small intestine and will not cause blood sugar fluctuation. In China, the minimum package of yogurt products is 100 grams, 2 spoonfuls or one cup per day. For overweight and obese sugar friends, it is best to choose low-sugar or skim yogurt in the supermarket. For yogurt flavored with a lot of jam, it is not recommended to choose.

  High blood fat, eat half an egg yolk every day.

  The fat in egg yolk is mainly monounsaturated fatty acid (oleic acid), and the phospholipid content is also high. However, the utilization rate of iron in egg yolk is low, only about 3%, because it contains vitellin, which interferes with the absorption of iron.

  The weight of eggs is generally between 45 and 55 grams. Dietary Guidelines for China Residents (2016) recommends that the average intake of eggs for adults is 40-50g per day, with one egg per day and no more than 7 eggs per week. Ma Guansheng, director of the Department of Nutrition and Food Hygiene of Peking University College of Public Health, said that for patients with hyperlipidemia, the intake of egg yolk should be appropriately reduced, such as eating an egg white, but the egg yolk can be halved. It is best to arrange eggs to be eaten every day, rather than focusing on a certain meal.

  Eat more green leafy vegetables and get less fatty liver.

  A recent Swedish study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences found that eating more green leafy vegetables is very important to prevent fatty liver.

  Dr Matthias Karstrom, a researcher at Karolinska Institute in Sweden, and his team fed a group of mice with high-fat and high-sugar foods, which increased their risk of fatty liver. After that, some mice were supplemented with nitrate (green leafy vegetables contain a lot of nitrate), and it was found that the risk of fatty liver in these mice was significantly reduced. The researchers also studied the culture of two different human liver cells, which verified the results of mouse experiments. In addition, the researchers also found that the blood pressure of type 2 diabetic mice decreased and the insulin level improved after nitrate supplementation. Previous studies have shown that nitrate from vegetables can help improve mitochondrial function and improve physical endurance.

  Researchers say that overweight and excessive drinking are the two main causes of fatty liver, and there is no effective drug to treat fatty liver at present. This new study shows that eating more green leafy vegetables and increasing nitrate intake can help reduce fat accumulation in the liver and reduce the risk of fatty liver, heart disease and diabetes.

Less than 0.2 million/200 thousand bought an end-to-end intelligent driving, and Chuanqi yearned for S7 listing, which is more valuable than ideal?

On the evening of March 30th, GAC Chuanqi officially announced the price of S7 at the user party held in Shenzhen. The new car has launched five models, with the guide price range of 169,800-223,800 yuan, and the price has dropped to 154,800-208,800 yuan after combining the national replacement subsidy. As Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi’s first high-end intelligent driving mass production model, it yearns for S7 to be built based on EV+ new energy platform, positioning the family’s five-seat SUV, so does it have the strength to impact the mid-to-high-end new energy market?

Chuanqi yearns for S7 to adopt the design language of "hiding the front and moistening it", and create the visual tone of "positive atmosphere" through the collision between rounded surfaces and sharp edges. The 2618mm star-shaped ring on the front face integrates 2248 beads, supports 8 kinds of dynamic light language interaction, and cooperates with the zigzag taillight group, which has both scientific sense and recognition.

Chuanqi yearns for the design of the side of S7 body with suspended roof, hidden door handle and 270 flat side window, which strengthens the simple and smooth outline. The D-pillar energy breathing light enhances the sense of car etiquette through green light (charging) and blue light (discharging). In terms of color matching, the new car offers five theme colors inspired by the geographical pole of China: Shuguang Red, Rainforest Green, Haoyue Grey, Obsidian Crystal Black and Blade Shadow White. Chuanqi yearns for S7 with a body size of 4900×1950×1780mm, a wheelbase of 2880mm, and a ground clearance of 200mm, taking into account urban commuting and light off-road scenes, and all the data are also close.

Chuanqi yearns for S7 interior to provide three color schemes of brown, white and black, 270 embracing skyline ambient light and ADiGO 6.0 intelligent cockpit system driven by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295P chip, which supports four-tone voice interaction and end-cloud integrated AI service. The whole car seat comes standard with ventilation/heating/massage function, and the rear backrest can be adjusted up to 137. With the 17.3-inch 3K ceiling screen, 22-speaker Dolby panoramic sound and electric suction door, it has a "mobile first class" experience.

As the core selling point, Chuanqi yearns for S7 to be equipped with an end-to-end intelligent driving system developed by GAC without drawing. The hardware adopts NVIDIA Orin-X chip (254TOPS computing power), 11 cameras +1 zoom lidar +3 millimeter-wave radar, which can identify 35 main scenes and 357 sub-scenes, covering complex road conditions such as urban roundabout and narrow roads. The automatic parking function is compatible with special-shaped parking spaces and the "car width +0.5m" limit space. It is worth noting that the city NDA intelligent driving function comes standard in the form of "free use for life", and there is no need for late subscription.

Chuanqi yearns for S7 based on EV+ platform. The new car provides dual-mode drive of plug-in+extended range. The 1.5T engine matches single/double motors, and the comprehensive power reaches 392/501 horsepower. The two-wheel drive version of CLTC has a pure battery life of 205km and a comprehensive battery life of 1150km;; The four-wheel drive version has a pure battery life of 180km, a comprehensive battery life of 1020km and a fuel consumption of 5.7-6.5L/100km. It takes only 20 minutes for the magazine battery to support 30%-80% charge quickly, and the 6kW external discharge function expands the camping scene.

In horizontal contrast, the ideal L6 occupies a high position in the market with its luxury positioning and balanced product strength, while Chuanqi yearns for S7 to provide lidar, high-level intelligent driving and leading endurance at a lower price, thus forming dislocation competition. Traditional competing fuel products, such as SAIC Volkswagen Pro, are good at space, but their power performance and intelligent configuration are slightly weak in the new energy camp. Chuanqi yearns for S7 to anchor a sense of high value at a price of 200,000, which is obviously attractive to users.

In addition, 2025 is regarded as the outbreak year of medium and large SUVs of China brand, and Chuanqi yearns for S7′ s domineering design and people-friendly pricing, which has become a rare "cost-effective flagship" in this track. Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi simultaneously launched an aviation-class service system, including free pick-up and delivery vehicles in 272 cities, 1.2 million+charging pile coverage and 7×24-hour butler service, further strengthening competitiveness. Therefore, on the whole, Chuanqi’s longing for the listing of S7 is not only a concentrated display of Guangzhou Automobile’s technical reserves, but also a reflection of the pragmatic path for local brands to attack the high-end, and challenge the traditional luxury barriers with intelligent and cost-effective two-wheel drive. So whether these advantages can bring more sales and seize the ideal L6 and other new power markets, we will wait and see.

From End-to-End Model to World Model: Algorithm Transition of Chery Intelligent Driving

On March 18th, the Third Yangtze River Bridge in Wuhu staged a scientific and technological wonder: 200 Chery cars with intelligent driving crossed the bridge at a uniform speed of 40km/h, and the intelligent driving feat of zero human intervention in the whole process opened the prelude to the intelligent strategy conference of "oil, electricity and intelligence in the world". Known by the industry as the "Smart Night", this grand event not only launched the 500/700/900 smart driving, but also crushed the technical strength of the industry with the iterative speed of the algorithm, announcing that Chery officially became the first echelon of smart driving in the world.

1 [Chery Automobile Intelligent Strategy Conference was successfully held in Wuhu, Anhui]

[Intergenerational Revolution of Algorithms]

Chery’s intelligent layout presents a clear step-by-step evolution: the end-to-end large model (E2E) mass-produced in 2025 took the lead in breaking the shackles of traditional modularity, and through the direct optimization of perception-decision, the efficiency of the Falcon 500/700 series in anthropomorphic decision-making was significantly improved. What is more worth looking forward to is that Eagle 900 deeply integrates VLA (Visual Action Language Model) with WM, and has dual capabilities of "scene generation+strategy deduction", which can predict complex traffic situations in advance.

"Practice of technical equality"

When the industry focused on the electrified track, Chery opened up a new battlefield with the wisdom of oil and electricity. Falcon Intelligent Driving System innovatively develops a digital twin platform, which overcomes the problem of response delay of traditional fuel vehicle drive-by-wire actuators and shortens the adaptation period of intelligent driving system. This makes such fuel vehicles also have high-speed NOA capability, realizing real technical equality. In the field of Off-Road intelligence, Falcon Intelligent Driving Off-road, the world’s first off-road intelligent driving technology, broke through the perception bottleneck of unpaved roads, and integrated satellite remote sensing data through Xinghai big data platform, which significantly improved the pass rate compared with the traditional off-road auxiliary system.

1742565695333

[Global data closed loop]

Supporting the technological transition is the global data engine built by Chery. The model learning mileage of 20 million kilometers per day forms a complete closed loop of "global acquisition-cloud training-scene simulation". Especially in overseas markets, 4.5 billion kilometers of real intelligent driving data feedback algorithm optimization has successfully solved regional problems such as the passing rate of complex roundabout in Europe and the perceived stability of dusty weather in the Middle East. Relying on China’s first EU dual certification qualification, Chery plans to land in Europe with Falcon 700 in 2026, and knock on the door of the high-end intelligent driving market with the verification data of 1 billion kilometers in the "digital parallel universe".

1742565705462

[Ecological competition pattern]

Facing the high-precision map dependence of NCA of Huawei ADS 2.0 and XNGP of Tucki, Chery chose to make a differentiated breakthrough: the update frequency of weekly algorithm iteration is four times faster than the industry average; Full-power type adaptability, covering the pain points of traditional car enterprise transformation; Breakthrough of off-road scenes, filling the blank market of intelligent driving. This technical layout has been verified on ET in Xingyue-a heterogeneous redundant system with 30 sensors, and the decision-making is highly anthropomorphic in the unprotected left turn scene.

From the intelligent driving along the Yangtze River to the verification of 1 billion kilometers in the digital universe, Chery is reshaping the industrial structure with intergenerational innovation of algorithms. When Falcon 900′ s VLA+WM architecture realizes L3-level automatic driving, this technological leap from end to end will lead China’s intelligent driving to a new era dominated by "world model".

City Ride is on fire. You can go to these places in Guangzhou →

You don’t need to be a fitness expert

There are not many technical thresholds.

It can be in groups of three or five.

You can "I" walk alone.

After "City Walk" became

After the "new favorite" of people’s travel and rest

"City Ride" is also hot and "out of the circle"

A pair of iron legs and two sleeves.

Ride your beloved bike and roam the city.

It has become a leisure way for many people to punch in.

The literal translation of "City Ride" is city riding. The so-called riding, riding tools are bicycles. China’s cycling culture has experienced ups and downs. In 1956, a 28-inch "permanent" model was rolled off the assembly line, and New China had the ability to independently design and produce bicycles. From "Phoenix" to "Flying Pigeon", the bicycle was not only one of the "three big things" for generations of Chinese people to get married, but also connected with the mobile China in the eyes of their parents. Later, with the rise of vehicles such as family cars and battery cars, the status of bicycles as "commuting kings" was gradually replaced.

What is the charm that makes bicycles a new favorite again? Let’s talk about it today.

Why is Citylide fascinating?

The popularity of Citylide is beyond many people’s imagination. According to statistics, at present, there are more than 100 million people cycling regularly in China, and nearly 10 million people participate in cycling. Except for a few professional cyclists, most people still take the City Ride route, which is a hobby of cycling. Walk too slowly, drive too fast, and ride just right.

Notes on cycling on social platforms.

So, why do so many people have a special liking for the new "online celebrity Movement" of City Ride?

The sense of surprise of "meeting unexpectedly"

For office workers who work from nine to five in the city, the usual life path is fixed between home and work, and the scenery on the way to and from work every day is similar. Different from the simple commuting at two o’clock and one line, Citylide’s route is more random and diverse, and it can also bring more fresh experiences.

Riding and stopping on a "popular" path, maybe something new will pop up at the next intersection: an ice-cold special latte, a pot of steaming cakes and snacks … A moment of free energy can cure the fatigue of the day.

Ultimate pure "cost performance"

Compared with style and style, nowadays, people pay more attention to the cost-effective life, and consumption has also changed to practicality, applicability and economy, and City Ride meets everyone’s needs. As a zero-emission travel mode, City Ride can not only reduce the carbon emissions in the transportation field to a certain extent, but also contribute to environmental protection. It also finds a "three-all" solution that can not only exercise, but also change the sports scene for urban people who are inconvenient to exercise due to conditions such as venues and equipment.

In addition, riding can also choose not to match the speed, not to roll the equipment, and how much investment is controlled by yourself. Although the word City Ride seems to carry the label of exquisite petty bourgeoisie, in fact, the cost is not high and the operation is simple. What everyone pursues is the happiness of "doing more with less money".

"God Assist" of Social Platform

A large number of "planting grass" posts and sharing posts on social platforms have sent a wave of "god assists" to the popularity of Citylide, attracting the attention of a large number of sports enthusiasts.

Every weekend or weekday night, about three or five friends unlock different cycling routes and various new ways of playing, and explore new fun of urban life during cycling, which has become a lifestyle sought after by more and more people.

How can City Ride be more comfortable?

What are the precautions?

When we ride a bicycle, there are three parts of our body that are in direct contact with the bicycle, that is, our hands (handlebars), our feet (pedals) and our buttocks (seat bags). The relationship between the contact points between the body and the bicycle and our height directly determines the posture, muscle force efficiency and comfort when riding.

How should we adjust these points according to our height?

We usually ride a bike, and we often adjust the distance between these points by adjusting the height of the seat bag to adjust the force angle of the thighs and knees when pedaling. If the height of the seat bag is too high or too low, the leg muscles will not be at the proper angle of force when riding, resulting in insufficient muscle strength, which will reduce the riding efficiency and make us feel uncomfortable.

Some studies have found that for cyclists, there is still a 30-degree bend (that is, a slight bend of the knee) in the knee bending angle (as shown in the figure) when the pedal is stepped to the end, and riding with a body leaning forward angle of 55 is the most comfortable.

Source: Priego Quesadaji, Pé rez-Soriano P, Lucas-Cuevas AG, Salvador Palmer R, Cibriá n Ortiz de Andarm. Effect of Bike-Fit in the Perception of Comfort, Fatigue and Pain. J Sports Sci. 2017 Jul; 35(14):1459-1465. doi: 10.1080/02640414.2016.1215496. Epub 2016 Aug 4. PMID: 27490817.

Next, I will teach you a simple way to adjust the height of the seat bag. The specific method is to hold the seat bag under your arm and straighten your arm. If your fingertips are just at the center of the car, then the height of the seat bag is more appropriate.

Although this adjustment is not accurate enough, it is no problem for you to ride comfortably for several kilometers. Of course, if your driving skills are poor and the road conditions are complicated, you can lower the height of the seat bag a little to make an emergency stop.

Of course, the original intention of riding is no matter how good and the experience is wonderful. If there is no safety as the premise, nothing can be discussed. These safety knowledge should be kept in mind:

Cycling in the right place

When riding, you should choose a square or park with riding lanes; When riding a bike on the street, be sure to take the bike lane, and it is strictly forbidden to walk through the traffic; Avoid cycling in crowds. Pedestrians who are knocked down by bicycles, especially those who hurt their heads, are likely to face fatal risks.

Riding age should be legal.

Article 72 of the Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China stipulates that driving bicycles, tricycles, electric bicycles and motorized wheelchairs for the disabled on the road shall comply with the following provisions: driving bicycles and tricycles must be at least 12 years old; Driving electric bicycles and motorized wheelchairs for the disabled must be at least 16 years old.

Obey the rules and order

When riding a non-motor vehicle on the road, it is necessary to pass in the non-motor vehicle lane; If there is no non-motor vehicle lane on the road, you should drive along the right side of the road. During riding, you should obey the traffic signals, stop at the red light, go at the green light, don’t race against the second, don’t be distracted, ensure safety before passing, and don’t rush through the red light for a moment!

Stay away from vehicle blind spots.

When a large vehicle turns, the trajectories of the front and rear wheels do not coincide, which will present a meniscus-shaped blind zone. If you are in this area at this time, it is easy to be blown down and involved in the bottom of the car, resulting in a crushing accident.

If you want to enjoy riding, it is not only related to urban planning and traffic management, but also depends on the joint efforts of every cyclist.

Guangzhou 520 km cycling road

Embrace City Ride

Guangzhou recently launched 520 kilometers.

Mountain and sea riding the road

You can punch in the classic scenic spots in the city

You can also get close to nature

Focus on a sense of relaxation

Schematic diagram of the main line of 520km mountain and sea cycling road in Guangzhou.

Guangzhou’s 520-kilometer mountain and sea cycling road is about 520 kilometers long, reaching Liuxihe National Forest Park in Conghua in the north, passing through the Pearl River Belt and reaching Nansha Beach in the south.

The landscape pattern of Yunshan Lianzhushui and the green infrastructure space occupying about two thirds of Guangzhou’s urban area have laid a good foundation for the development of cycling roads.

Seize the new opportunity of consumption upgrading, and China’s consumer market will continue to upgrade and expand.

  At the 4th China International Import Expo (China International Import Expo(CIIE) for short), the China market, with a population of over 1.4 billion and a middle-income group of over 400 million, attracted the attention of many trading partners and multinational enterprises. The reporter of Economic Information Daily learned in China International Import Expo(CIIE) that China will make efforts in many aspects to promote consumption upgrading, build a strong domestic market, open up the domestic and international markets at a high level, and share the development opportunities of China with the world.

  Data show that the total retail sales of social consumer goods in China increased from 20.6 trillion yuan in 2012 to 39.2 trillion yuan in 2020, nearly doubling in eight years. China has become the second largest consumer market in the world, with continuous optimization of consumption structure, rapid growth of sales of upgraded goods, continuous expansion of green, healthy and sustainable consumption and rapid development of service consumption. In the first nine months of this year, China’s Engel coefficient was 29.8%, down 0.7 percentage points compared with the same period last year; Service consumption accounted for 52.3% of residents’ consumption expenditure, up by 2.4 percentage points.

  At the 4th Hongqiao International Economic Forum "Sub-forum on New Consumption Trends under the New Development Pattern of Double Circulation", Wang Shouwen, Vice Minister of Commerce and Deputy Representative of International Trade Negotiations, said that China has a large market with a population of 1.4 billion and the largest middle-income group in the world. The consumption structure of residents is in the stage of continuous upgrading, with obvious multi-level and diversified demand characteristics, and the consumption market has great potential, strong resilience and sufficient vitality, and has broad development space.

  Wang Shouwen emphasized that China will unswervingly deepen reform and open wider to the outside world, more efficiently connect the internal and external markets and share essential resources, and promote the steady recovery and sustainable development of consumption, which will not only meet the growing needs of China people for a better life, but also inject more positive energy into the international community. "At present, China is speeding up the construction of a new development pattern with the domestic big cycle as the main body and the domestic and international double cycles promoting each other. Consumption is an important engine of economic development, an important support for promoting high-quality development and achieving high-quality life, and plays an important role in building a new development pattern. " He said.

  At the opening ceremony of the fourth China International Import Expo(CIIE), China announced that it would pay more attention to expanding imports and promoting balanced trade development; Add import trade to promote innovation demonstration zones, optimize the list of cross-border e-commerce retail imported goods, promote the landing processing of imported goods in border trade, and increase imports from neighboring countries; Promote the integration of domestic and foreign trade, accelerate the construction of an international consumption center city, develop "Silk Road E-commerce", build a modern logistics system, and enhance cross-border logistics capabilities.

  The continuous release of market potential and the favorable opening-up have further ignited the enthusiasm of foreign-funded enterprises for China’s consumer market. In the food and agricultural products exhibition area, the reporter saw durian in Malaysia, fragrant rice in Thailand, coffee in Colombia, wine in Argentina and beef in Uruguay &hellip; &hellip; Multinational enterprises bring special products and compete to open the China market with the help of China International Import Expo(CIIE) platform.

  Some countries organized delegations to participate in the exhibition, and the exhibition organizations in Japan, Denmark, Poland, New Zealand and other countries expanded the exhibition area and organized more small and medium-sized enterprises representing their own characteristics to participate in the exhibition. Among them, only the exhibition area in Central and Eastern Europe exceeds 1,500 square meters, and the number of enterprises exceeds 60.

  Not only special agricultural products and food exhibits have attracted much attention, but also upgraded electronic products, jewelry and beauty cosmetics have become the highlights in China International Import Expo(CIIE). The reporter saw that in front of the Samsung booth, the latest tablets, smart watches and wireless Bluetooth headsets were all unveiled; Shiseido showcased the company’s cutting-edge technology and its major brands, and explored investment opportunities in China’s beauty and health fields; Deluca Jewelry has brought many sets of new jewelry, and regards China International Import Expo(CIIE) as an ideal platform to show brands and products to the China market &hellip; &hellip;

  The demand for market upgrading in China has also become the driving force for enterprise innovation. According to Xie Weibo, member of Danone’s global executive committee and president of China and Oceania, consumption in China is escalating, and consumers have great demand for health and natural products. "In order to keep up with the pace of China, Danone has established an open laboratory for life nutrition in China, paying more attention to promoting the development of local science and technology and innovating for the China market." Xie Weibo said.

  Huang Degui, president of Samsung in China, said that Samsung is very optimistic about the market prospects in China. It is understood that as a company that has participated in China International Import Expo(CIIE) for four consecutive years, Samsung, driven by innovation, continues to show the industry the cutting-edge technologies that will lead the future development, and enrich the expectations of China consumers for a better life through innovative products.

  Kentaro Fujiwara, CEO of Shiseido China, stressed that Shiseido, as an international beauty group based on the 40th anniversary of China, continues to be optimistic about the development prospects of the China market. "We will take a two-pronged approach to seize development opportunities by adding a series of strategic measures of local R&D and introducing global innovation." He said.

  Wei Wang, director of the Institute of Market Economy of the State Council Development Research Center, said that in the process of accelerating the construction of a new development pattern, consumption has become the core driving force, key link and important hub of the dual-cycle development, providing huge market opportunities for global multinational companies. At the same time, there are a large number of new consumption demands in China market, which provides rich application scenarios for scientific and technological innovation of global enterprises, and is conducive to promoting the innovation and development of domestic and foreign enterprises and upgrading the industrial structure.

Hainan Daily reporter Lin Shuxi

It is about 5.6 kilometers from Yangpu Xindu Industrial Park, where Tianjilong Intelligent Control (Hainan) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Tianjilong Intelligent Control) is located, to the bonded port area of Yangpu Economic Development Zone, and it takes 10 minutes by car. Last year, Tianjilong Zhikong wanted to settle in Yangpu Bonded Port Area, but lost the opportunity because it did not conform to the industrial planning of Yangpu Bonded Port Area.

The tariff-free policy of processing value-added exceeding 30% is the core policy of the import and export policy system of Hainan Free Trade Port, which was once one of the unique policies of Hainan Free Trade Port in Yangpu Bonded Port Area. Originally, Tianjilong Zhikong could not enjoy this free trade port policy with high "gold content".

Not long ago, a policy linked the two missed parties. Since this year, our province has actively promoted the tariff-free policy of processing value-added exceeding 30% as a pilot, expanding from Yangpu Bonded Port Area to Danzhou Yangpu Area, as a high-level open pressure test, and accumulating experience for the whole island’s customs clearance operation.

On December 2, Tianjilong Zhikong stood out from many production and processing enterprises in Danzhou Yangpu, and caught the "hydrangea" thrown from the wall of Yangpu Bonded Port Area, becoming the first enterprise in Yangpu to enjoy the pilot expansion of Hainan Free Trade Port’s import and export policy system of "opening the first line and managing the second line".

On the morning of December 8, Hainan Daily reporter walked into Tianjilong intelligent control production workshop, only to see all kinds of processed valves placed on the ground, especially the pneumatic regulating valve with red appearance was the most conspicuous. Just a few days ago, this product just enjoyed the duty-free policy of processing value-added exceeding 30% for domestic sales, and its core parts locator was imported from Germany.

"The valve has a key technical index, that is, the leakage of the sealing surface. In addition to zero leakage, it is also necessary to accurately control the flow." Shi Haifeng, deputy general manager of Tianjilong Intelligent Control (Hainan) Co., Ltd. said that Tianjilong Intelligent Control’s main business is in the list of encouraged industries in Hainan Free Trade Port, and its intelligent control valve products are technologically advanced. "The sensitivity of the valve control switch we produce is very high. As long as there is 0.5% flow, the valve can be started normally, reaching the international advanced level and meeting the production requirements of various enterprises."

Shi Haifeng said that in addition to producing and processing all kinds of valves and fluid control equipment, the company also provides maintenance services to Hainan Refining and Chemical, Yisheng Petrochemical, Jinhai Pulp and Paper and other enterprises. Not only that, the reporter found through the publicity column of the factory that the company’s "friend circle" involves enterprises in the fields of petroleum, chemical industry, metallurgy, electric power and environmental protection.

"The advantage of Tianjilong Zhikong is that it can improve the supporting maintenance of Yangpu petrochemical industry chain, and the products are in line with the direction of the pilot expansion of the import and export policy system of’ first-line liberalization and second-line management’." Xu Lu, deputy director of Yangpu Port Office and deputy secretary general of Danzhou Municipal Government, said.

"Only by’ managing it’ can we’ let it go’." Ai Tao, head of the Second Division of Customs Comprehensive Business in Yangpu Economic Development Zone, told the reporter that according to the requirements of the General Administration of Customs, enterprises that meet the pilot must meet three conditions. First, it is necessary to obtain the enterprise qualification of advanced customs certification; second, it is necessary to build a video system that meets the requirements of customs supervision; third, the enterprise ERP management system should be connected with the customs supervision system and accept real-time customs supervision.

At the beginning of this year, after the pilot work of expanding the processing value-added tariff-free policy, the relevant departments of Danzhou Yangpu chose Tianjilong Zhikong as the pilot object after visiting enterprises on the spot. "We have set up two working classes to provide comprehensive guidance to Tianjilong Intelligent Control from the aspects of supporting system formulation, advanced customs certification, ERP system function development and joint debugging, and video monitoring system establishment." Ai Tao said that after nearly three months of hard work, on June 27th this year, Tianjilong Zhikong successfully obtained the qualification of advanced customs certification enterprise, and then carried out work tests such as business process, processing value-added goods for domestic sales clearance, which laid a solid foundation for the implementation of the first single business of policy expansion pilot in early December.

"I am very happy to enjoy the tariff-free policy of processing value-added. The policy dividend of Hainan Free Trade Port has helped enterprises reduce costs and improve product competitiveness." Shi Haifeng said that based on the company’s annual output of 3,000 sets of intelligent control valves, the tariff-free policy of processing value-added can exempt the company from taxes of nearly 3 million yuan.

According to the data provided by the customs department, as of November 30 this year, Yangpu Bonded Port Area has processed 285 value-added goods, with a value of 2.68 billion yuan and a tax reduction of 220 million yuan.

"Yangpu Customs will continue to thoroughly study, publicize and implement the spirit of the 20th Party Congress, focus on the requirements of the General Administration of Customs’ release, management, construction, establishment and trial’, continue to actively promote the pilot project of policy expansion with relevant departments, actively do a good job in the operation of Hainan Free Trade Port, and help the integrated development of Danzhou Yangpu." Ai Tao said.

mode

Mode (Mode) refers to the number of times or frequency of occurrence in a group of data, which is a position average and is not affected by extreme variable values. Mode is mainly used to measure the centralized trend of classified data, and it can also be used to measure the centralized trend of sequential data and numerical data. A set of data may have multiple modes, or it may not exist. For quantitative data that are not grouped, we seldom use modes.

Just "change" the battery? How can changing electricity be so simple?

  In the use of pure electric vehicles, battery problems have been bothering many consumers. The difficulty in installing charging piles, long charging time and battery decay all affect consumers’ daily experience. In order to solve these problems, the power exchange mode came into being. Especially under the impetus of the policy, this year’s electricity exchange market is more lively. Since the first power exchange station of Chang ‘an New Energy was completed in Chongqing in September this year, power exchange stations from Geely and Dongfeng have successively landed or appeared in Chongqing, Jinan, Wuhan and other cities, breaking the situation that Weilai and BAIC were "equally divided" in the previous power exchange market. However, it is worth noting that it is nothing new that the battery replacement mode has already appeared. Behind the current lively situation, the constraints of profitability and battery specifications faced by the battery replacement mode remain unresolved.

  ▼ Policy spring breeze wakes up the rivers and lakes.

  As the name implies, changing electricity means centralized storage, centralized charging and unified distribution of a large number of batteries through centralized charging stations, and battery replacement service for electric vehicles in battery distribution stations. Compared with the ordinary charging mode, the battery replacement mode can solve a series of problems caused by the difficulty of charging new energy vehicles, battery attenuation and easy spontaneous combustion, and the vehicle-electric separation mode adopted in the battery replacement can also effectively reduce the first purchase cost. This obvious advantage attracted many people to try layout more than ten years ago.

  In 2007, Israeli Xia Jiaxi founded the first operating company, Better Place, which aims at changing electricity for passenger cars. However, the mode of changing electricity needs to lay a large number of power stations as the foundation, which is undoubtedly a "bottomless pit" for burning money in the early stage of operation. In 2013, Better Place declared bankruptcy and liquidation because it was difficult to balance the investment and income of the business model. At the same time in China, Dongfeng, Zotye, Kangdi, Nanjing Automobile and other companies also put a number of operating vehicles in the mode of changing electricity into the market, but they also did not stir up a splash.

  Now, many years later, with the continuous expansion of the scale of new energy vehicles in China, the problems of charging difficulty and battery attenuation of pure electric products are becoming more and more serious. In order to solve the battery-related problems, the spring breeze of national policy has blown to the power exchange mode. In April this year, the "Notice on Improving the Financial Subsidy Policy for the Promotion and Application of New Energy Vehicles" jointly issued by the four ministries and commissions of the country clearly encouraged the development of the power exchange model; In May, after discussion and deliberation by delegates and members, the power exchange station was written into the government work report for the first time as an important part of the new infrastructure. Driven by the policy spring breeze, the domestic power exchange rivers and lakes are becoming more and more lively.

  ▼40 days, 3 car companies entered the game.

  On September 10th, the first power exchange station of Chang ‘an New Energy was officially completed in Chongqing Olympic Sports Center. As a new heavyweight contestant after Weilai and BAIC, Chang ‘an New Energy Power Exchange Station has attracted great attention from the outside world. Generally speaking, the process of changing electricity mainly covers five steps: generating an order-entering the station-changing electricity-testing-leaving the station. Prior to this, the power exchange time announced by Weilai and BAIC remained at about 3 minutes, but the appearance of Chang ‘an New Energy Power Exchange Station refreshed this data. According to public information, Changan New Energy has reduced the time from battery taking to battery loading to 30 seconds, and the whole process from vehicle entering the station to battery replacement takes only 1 minute.

  Geely Automobile also set a new record. A week after the completion of Chang ‘an New Energy Power Station, Geely Automobile’s first power station was officially unveiled at the 2020 Zhibo Fair and landed in Liangjiang New District, Chongqing. A month later, on October 18th, the second power station of Geely Automobile was put into operation in Jinan, Shandong. The data shows that Geely Power Station adopts a double-bin design, which can accommodate 39 battery packs, and can provide nearly 1000 power exchange services every day, and the power exchange time is about 90 s.

  On October 19th, Dongfeng Motor’s intelligent power exchange station was also unveiled. At the 5th Science and Technology Innovation Week, after a Fengshen E70 (parameter | inquiry) drove into Dongfeng’s intelligent power exchange station, the vehicle was transported to the operation room by the conveyor and lifted, and the battery exchange robot automatically unloaded the old battery and installed the new battery. The whole process only took about 1 minute.

  In just 40 days, the power exchange stations of the three major car companies have successively landed or appeared. Coupled with the paving of Weilai and BAIC, the prototype of the power exchange market has begun to appear. However, it is worth noting that even with the blessing of policies, the fundamental problem of the power exchange model-the contradiction between cost and profit-has not been solved.

  ▼ The contradiction between cost and profit is difficult to solve.

  In the mode of power exchange, the separation of vehicle and electricity is an important link. Compared with ordinary pure electric vehicles, the battery cost of pure electric vehicles is no longer borne by consumers, and a series of risks such as battery attenuation are also transferred to the vehicle enterprises. These benefits enjoyed by consumers mean that car companies need to invest a lot of money in building power stations and buying batteries.

  For example, Zhu Jiang, then vice president of Weilai Automobile, previously revealed that the daily operating cost of Weilai’s free power exchange was about 50,000 RMB. It has also been estimated by insiders that the average operating cost of each power station in Weilai is 400,000 yuan. From 2018 to now, Weilai Power Station has invested more than 500 million yuan. BAIC, which explored the power exchange market earlier, invested more. Wang Chunfeng, deputy general manager of BAIC Blue Valley Marketing Service Co., Ltd., said that in terms of power exchange station operation, the investment of a single power exchange station of BAIC New Energy is about 3 million yuan, but this figure is slowly declining.

  Corresponding to the high cost is the uncertainty of profit prospects. At present, the power exchange in the market is mainly aimed at two groups, one is the private vehicles of ordinary consumers, and the other is the operating vehicles represented by taxis. Weilai, Beiqi New Energy, Chang ‘an, Geely and other enterprises have changed power stations, only Weilai’s power station is aimed at private users, while the latter three are mainly for taxis and network cars. In addition, in 2018, BAIC New Energy also released a battery-changing model called EU Quick Change Edition for ordinary consumers, but few people bought it.

  In these two modes of operation, from 2018 to now, the number of power exchange orders for Weilai Power Station for private consumers has accumulated more than 1 million times. However, Weilai launched a lifetime free service for car owners, which means that the previous investment of 500 million yuan was a pure loss. Recently, however, Weilai has adjusted the policy of free power exchange: from October 12, 2020, users who pay big orders will be changed from unlimited power exchange to free power exchange for the first 6 times a month; Car owners who pay before October 12, 2020 still enjoy life-long unlimited free nationwide power exchange service. As for whether this adjustment can improve the profitability of the power station for Weilai, it still takes time to test.

  As of June this year, 187 Beiqi new energy power stations for operating vehicles such as taxis have been built and put into operation in 19 cities across the country, with a total of 4.8 million power exchanges. However, in terms of profitability, BAIC New Energy and its partner Aodong in the field of power exchange have never been publicly disclosed. Aika Automobile found out from the announcement issued by BAIC Blue Valley (6.490, 0.04, 0.62%) when BAIC New Energy increased its capital for Aodong last year that the operating income of Aodong from January to April 2019 was 3,610,800 yuan and the net profit loss was 19,122,200 yuan. This means that among all the distribution power stations of AUTO, only a few power stations operating at full capacity have achieved profitability.

  The picture shows the Aodong electric bar changing power station.

  In addition to the difficulty in making profits, consumers have also encountered many difficulties in the process of using the power exchange service. "The pure electric taxi we drive can change electricity, but there are only thirty or forty power stations in Beijing. When we are running a sports car in the city, we often encounter the situation that the car has no electricity but the battery of the power station is not enough." Master Yang, a Beijing taxi driver, told Aika Automobile. It is understood that Master Yang’s "dissatisfaction with electricity" refers to the situation that the battery in the power station is not fully charged. Generally speaking, each power station will be equipped with thirty or forty batteries, but when the power exchange vehicle exceeds the upper limit of the power exchange station, the batteries of the power exchange station will be replaced by the power exchange vehicle before they are fully charged. When Aika Automobile met Master Yang at a power station in Haidian, there were already eight taxis waiting in line to change power.

  ▼ Scale is the key to breaking the game

  "In order to optimize the power exchange experience and achieve profitability, it is not enough for enterprises to fight alone." Regarding the contradiction between high cost and profit prospect, and the "power shortage" encountered by Master Yang, an industry expert told Aika Automobile that the "power shortage" was mainly caused by the imperfect network layout of power exchange stations, and the imperfect layout of power exchange stations was caused by the excessive investment of a single power exchange station, which was difficult for enterprises to bear. Only by changing the number of power stations can the consumer experience be optimized and improved; Only when the number of electric vehicles increases, can we bring enough passengers to each power station, and the power station can achieve profitability. The two are complementary and interlocking. "

  The losses of Weilai and Beiqi New Energy Power Station prove that enterprises only serve their own products to change electricity, and it is difficult to achieve profitability. At the same time, if every enterprise invests a lot of cost to lay the power station network, it will not only be difficult for enterprises, but also waste resources for the whole society. In the expert’s view, only when the car companies combine Lian Heng in power exchange and the overall market forms a scale effect can the problem be fundamentally solved.

  Chang’ an’s mode of changing power stations is based on this idea. Aika Automobile understands that by joining hands with partners such as Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited, Aodong, State Grid and Iron Tower, Chang ‘an New Energy Power Exchange Station can support the power exchange services of seven major automobile companies such as BAIC, GAC, SAIC, FAW Hongqi, Pentium, Dongfeng Qichen, Chang ‘an and Jianghuai, which means that the power exchange station will have higher turnover rate and profitability.

  But for the whole market, this model also means a new round of competition for the right to speak. "If you want to realize the universal interchangeability of batteries in many enterprises, you must formulate a unified battery specification. Whoever formulates this specification will occupy a dominant position in the new round of power exchange market. " The expert said, "If you want to continue to develop the power exchange mode, more and more car companies will cooperate, and the standard dispute of pure electric batteries will soon appear. At the same time, this debate is not limited to car companies, and charging operators are also important players in the power exchange market. Whether this standard is customized by car companies or formulated by charging operators also determines the right to speak in the battery field. "

  In fact, despite the warmth of policy spring breeze, there are still a lot of problems for car companies to promote the development of power exchange mode. In addition to a large amount of capital investment, the cooperation between enterprises at the same level, the unification of battery specifications, the acceptance of consumers and the future dispute over the right to speak are all issues that need to be considered.

  On November 26th, the Information Office of the Ministry of Commerce held a special press conference on "Trade Logistics". Hu Suojin, deputy inspector of the General Office of the Ministry of Commerce, Wang Xuanqing, deputy inspector of the Circulation Development Department, and Shen Jinsheng, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Commission of Commerce, attended the press conference and answered questions from reporters. The record of the conference is as follows:

  Hu Suojin:Good morning, journalists and friends. Welcome to today’s special conference on trade logistics of the Ministry of Commerce. First of all, please allow me to introduce the leaders attending today’s conference: Deputy Inspector Wang Xuanqing of the Circulation Development Department of the Ministry of Commerce; Shen Jinsheng, Deputy Director of Beijing Municipal Commission of Commerce. Today’s conference has three agendas: first, I will briefly introduce the overall situation of China’s trade logistics development; Second, please ask Deputy Inspector Wang Xuanqing to introduce the work done by the Ministry of Commerce in promoting and improving the construction of trade logistics system and the next consideration; The third is to invite Shen Jinsheng, deputy director of Beijing Municipal Commission of Commerce, to introduce the relevant situation of promoting the development of commercial logistics in Beijing. The fourth link is to communicate with reporters and friends and ask questions. Let me first introduce the general characteristics of China’s trade logistics development by establishing diplomatic relations with you.

  Commercial logistics refers to the logistics service activities related to wholesale, retail, accommodation, catering, residential services and import and export trade. It is an important part of commodity circulation, with one end connected with production and the other end connected with consumption, covering agricultural products, daily industrial products, production materials and other fields. Developing trade logistics is an important measure to ensure the economic operation of the city, residents’ life and price stability, and an important way to reduce logistics costs and improve circulation efficiency.

  China’s commercial logistics has a long history, starting from the Silk Road to communicate Chinese and Western trade in the Western Han Dynasty, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal that runs through the north and south in the Sui Dynasty, and Zheng He’s seven voyages to the West in the Ming Dynasty. These great initiatives are important manifestations of Chinese civilization and important carriers of China’s ancient commercial logistics, which have benefited generations and have been honored to this day. In today’s world, the logistics industry has become a basic and strategic industry supporting the development of the national economy. A city can live without industry and agriculture, but it can’t live without commerce and logistics. Trade logistics is the blood of market circulation. The more developed logistics is, the more prosperous the market is, and the more dynamic the economic development is.

  In recent years, China’s economy has developed rapidly, and scientific and technological progress has changed with each passing day. Governments at all levels have paid more and more attention to the important role of trade logistics. The state has successively issued plans for the adjustment and revitalization of the logistics industry and issued "National Nine Articles" to support the development of the logistics industry. The Ministry of Commerce has also issued a series of special plans and guidance documents to promote the development of commerce and trade logistics industry and reduce circulation costs, and carried out relevant demonstration work. With the joint efforts of government enterprises and other relevant parties, China’s trade logistics has developed rapidly, with the following main features:

  First, the status of trade logistics is prominent, with great development potential.

  With the development of e-commerce information technology, traditional business flow, information flow and capital flow can be completed by virtual network, but logistics needs physical space transfer and time consumption, so it cannot be virtualized. At the same time, the socialization of China’s logistics is still not ideal, and the proportion of third-party logistics in the logistics market is less than 25% (Japan, Europe and the United States have exceeded 70%). Especially with the rapid development of online shopping, the contradictions such as relatively lagging trade logistics and insufficient investment in circulation facilities are more prominent. For example, in the past "Double Eleven", the Alipay transaction volume of Ali Group alone reached 35 billion yuan, which made the national trade logistics system under great pressure. Therefore, the focus of industrial competition has gradually turned to the competition for distribution channels. Under the situation that specialized third-party logistics can’t meet the needs, e-commerce companies such as JD.COM and Suning have set foot in logistics one after another, which has great potential for the development of commercial logistics. At the same time, under the guidance of national policies and the role of market mechanism, the work of modern logistics demonstration cities and urban distribution pilots in the circulation field have been gradually promoted in the past two years, the service system of trade logistics has been gradually improved, the service functions have been continuously enhanced, and the degree of specialization and organization has been gradually improved, which has provided strong support for the development of the circulation industry.

  Second, the innovation of business model was accelerated, and the service function was gradually expanded.

  In Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other large and medium-sized cities, some commercial logistics enterprises are constantly innovating their business and service modes, providing customers with high-end logistics services such as VMI, cross-warehouse delivery, JIT, movable property financing and supply chain management, thus improving their core competitiveness. At the same time, with the start-up and use of a number of modern commercial logistics infrastructure, it will effectively promote the transformation of traditional logistics mode and improve the efficiency of urban and intercity distribution. For example, Guangdong Jiacheng Logistics Company embeds logistics services in all aspects of customers’ raw material procurement, production, sales and after-sales service, and provides overall logistics solutions and operational services based on supply chain management for Panasonic and other manufacturing enterprises, helping customers reduce logistics costs, shorten manufacturing cycle and realize "zero inventory". Guangdong Huaxin Trading Co., Ltd. develops the mode of "wholesale trade+logistics", sells more than 100 brands as agents and provides distribution services for tens of thousands of fast-moving consumer goods retail outlets. Beijing Xinfadi, Nanjing Zhongcai and other commodity distribution centers, producing areas and local wholesale markets, after construction and transformation, the capacity of goods distribution and distribution has been continuously enhanced, and cold chain logistics facilities have become new investment hotspots.

  Third, the main body of trade logistics is diversified and its scale is growing rapidly.

  With the continuous expansion of social demand for commercial logistics, modern commercial logistics enterprise groups with multiple ownership, multiple service modes and multiple levels have developed. For example, a modern logistics enterprise group transformed from traditional storage and transportation enterprises represented by COSCO and China Storage; Emerging private logistics enterprise groups represented by Baogong and Datian; Self-operated logistics groups of commercial enterprises represented by Yonghui, Chaopi and Suning Yunshang; E-commerce companies represented by JD.COM and Alibaba are involved in logistics groups; Manufacturing enterprises represented by Haier Logistics and China Railway Logistics separate logistics business groups; Agricultural products wholesale markets represented by Beijing Xinfadi and Nanjing Zhongcai expand logistics groups.

  Fourth, the application level of information technology has been continuously improved, and the functions of the service platform have begun to show.

  Most commercial logistics enterprises have upgraded transportation equipment, storage facilities and information systems, and promoted the application of advanced information technologies such as the Internet of Things, which has significantly improved efficiency and benefits, especially the innovation of open information service platforms, which has promoted the sharing of logistics resources and improved the degree of organization and standardization of commercial logistics. For example, China Logistics in Beijing, Lujiao Center in Shanghai, Lin ‘an Logistics in Guangdong, etc. have well adapted to the needs of the rapid development of commerce and trade services and the upgrading of residents’ consumption, and played a positive role in promoting commerce and trade prosperity, serving people’s livelihood, improving consumption environment, promoting the upgrading of circulation mode and transforming the mode of economic development.

  While achieving the above achievements, we should also clearly see that the overall development level of China’s commercial logistics is still relatively backward, which is not suitable for the needs of economic and social development and the upgrading of residents’ consumption. In the past, we didn’t know enough about the logistics industry and paid enough attention to it. We paid more attention to logistics supply, such as infrastructure construction, transportation tools, etc., and didn’t cultivate enough facilities’ functions, model innovation, technology application and industrial integration. The problems of high logistics cost and low efficiency were more prominent. According to the survey, the "last mile" price increase of vegetables in Beijing from Xinfadi wholesale market to community retail stores is about four times that from Shouguang, Shandong to Xinfadi, Beijing! Of course, it is not entirely the logistics cost, but also other costs, but the rising cost of logistics is indeed in a state of sudden rise. Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of e-commerce online shopping, the problem of "last mile" distribution is difficult and expensive is more prominent. These conditions show that it is urgent and arduous for China to comprehensively improve the development level of trade and logistics industry, and there is still a long way to go, which requires all parties concerned to work together and make arduous efforts.

  Next, please ask Wang Xuanqing, deputy inspector of the Circulation Development Department of the Ministry of Commerce, to introduce some practices and considerations of the Ministry of Commerce in promoting and improving the construction of trade logistics system.

  Wang Xuanqing:Dear journalists and friends, I am very happy to communicate with you. Next, I will give a briefing to reporters and friends on the work of the Ministry of Commerce in developing trade logistics in recent years and the next consideration.

  Next, I would like to give you an introduction on the business logistics work carried out by the Ministry of Commerce in recent years and the next consideration.

  First, the work and achievements of our department in promoting trade logistics

  In recent years, in accordance with the spirit of the relevant planning and guidance documents, our department has carried out a series of work in promoting the development, transformation and upgrading of the trade and logistics industry, including:

  (A) to open up a new situation in trade logistics. Since the beginning of this year, Vice Premier Wang Yang of the State Council has given important instructions on logistics work many times, especially on October 25th this year, he personally presided over a symposium on logistics work in some cities to study and deploy the work. Mayors of 16 cities and responsible comrades of commercial departments and relevant departments in the State Council attended the meeting. Vice Premier Wang Yang put forward six key tasks on trade logistics: First, promote the construction of logistics standardization and improve the efficiency of logistics operation; The second is to build a logistics credit system and optimize the market environment; Third, improve the level of logistics informatization, integrate resources with information technology and build a multi-level service platform; Fourth, implement policies to encourage the development of the logistics industry and coordinate and solve bottlenecks; The fifth is to speed up the development of urban logistics distribution and solve the problem of "last mile" distribution being difficult and expensive; Sixth, encourage the development of third-party logistics enterprises and improve the level of specialization, socialization and scale. Vice Premier Wang Yang’s speech pointed out the direction and put forward clear requirements for us to do a good job in business logistics in the coming period. To this end, on November 12 this year, the Ministry of Commerce held a national conference on trade and logistics to deploy related work.

  (two) to formulate development plans and issue guidance documents. In March 2011, the Ministry of Commerce, together with the National Development and Reform Commission and the General Supply and Marketing Corporation, issued the Special Plan for the Development of Commercial Logistics. This is the first special plan to guide and promote the development of China’s commercial logistics. It puts forward the goal of initially establishing a modern commercial logistics service system by 2015, and defines nine key tasks, such as improving the layout, enhancing the level of specialization, strengthening innovation and developing science and technology. In 2012, the State Council issued "Opinions on Deepening the Reform of Circulation System and Accelerating the Development of Circulation Industry", which further established the basic and leading position of circulation industry including logistics in the national economy, clarified the inter-ministerial coordination mechanism of nationwide circulation led by the Ministry of Commerce, strengthened coordination, guidance, supervision and inspection of circulation work, and timely studied and solved major problems in the development of circulation industry.

  (three) to carry out the demonstration of modern logistics city in the circulation field. In 2011, the Ministry of Commerce identified 46 modern logistics demonstration cities in the circulation field throughout the country. In recent years, the development of logistics industry in 46 demonstration cities has been highly valued and supported by local governments, the investment in urban logistics infrastructure construction has increased, the construction of public logistics information service platform and trading platform has been accelerated, and the level of logistics specialization, informationization and automation has developed rapidly. While developing urban logistics, all localities give full play to the radiation function, provide services for industrial products going to the countryside and agricultural products entering the city, and promote the development of rural logistics construction. 

  (D) Promote urban distribution through comprehensive pilot of modern service industry. Since 2011, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Commerce and other departments have carried out comprehensive pilot work of modern service industry in eight provinces and cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Liaoning and Tianjin in three batches. Eight provinces and cities have taken urban logistics distribution as an important field of pilot work and given support. Through the pilot work, the working system and mechanism of promoting the development of modern service industries such as modern logistics in various places have been improved, the development level of the industry has been improved, and a good demonstration effect has been produced. In particular, Beijing carried out "direct mining and direct supply" of agricultural products, Shanghai explored innovative cities for joint distribution, promoted secondary production with tertiary production, and promoted the linkage development of secondary production and tertiary production. Liaoning manufacturing owners assisted in separating and expanding logistics entities, and achieved remarkable results. For example, the "56135" logistics service platform of Shanghai Land Freight Trading Center has more than 100,000 members, publishing 800,000 effective messages every day and matching 120,000 transactions every day. The average logistics cost of member enterprises is half lower than the national average and close to the international level.

  (five) to carry out urban joint distribution pilot. In June 2012, the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Application and Joint Distribution of Modern Logistics Technology" was issued, and the first batch of nine cities were selected to carry out comprehensive pilot projects of modern logistics technology application and joint distribution, giving financial support; In December 2012, the "Guidelines for the Development of National Urban Distribution" was issued to provide guidance and reference for local work. In 2013, the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Finance brought the work of urban joint distribution into the pilot scope of modern service industry, and identified 15 pilot cities, which made the work more in-depth. For example, Beijing "City 100" logistics company, Shanghai agriculture, industry and commerce, etc., rely on stores to carry out "online booking and store collection", integrate the "last 100 meters" of community end distribution, and expand value-added services; Shanghai Bailian established a pallet recycling system, Wuhan promoted "electronic food boxes" and Guiyang established a green distribution fleet, which played a good role in demonstrating radiation.

  (six) to strengthen the guidance and management of the warehousing industry. In 2012, the Ministry of Commerce issued "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Transformation and Upgrading of Warehouse Industry", aiming at promoting the overall needs of modern commodity circulation system construction and trade logistics, and guiding the development of warehouse industry in the direction of informationization, standardization and standardization. And formulated two industry standards, namely, the service standard of chattel pledge supervision and the evaluation index of pledge supervision enterprises, to guide the development of financial logistics norms.

  (seven) to carry out basic work such as statistics, standards and research. In recent years, the Ministry of Commerce has vigorously promoted basic work such as domestic trade circulation standards and statistics, including the logistics industry, and issued 24 logistics-related standards, and related standards such as urban distribution and service platforms and warehousing will be released soon. At the same time, the Ministry of Commerce has carried out special research on the development status of China’s logistics industry, the total cost of social logistics, and the reduction of logistics costs, and established the system of focusing on logistics enterprises and focusing on business functional areas, which has laid a solid foundation for the development of trade logistics.

  Second, the next key work
  
  On October 25th, Vice Premier Wang Yang of the State Council hosted a symposium on logistics in some cities. On November 12th, the Ministry of Commerce held a national conference on trade logistics to make arrangements for trade logistics. According to the instructions of Vice Premier Wang Yang, in the next step, from the perspective of trade logistics, our department will focus on the following tasks:

  (1) Strengthen the construction of logistics standardization. The Ministry of Commerce, together with the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, Standards Committee, Ministry of Finance and other departments, is conducting research on how to establish a standard system for commercial logistics, speeding up the formulation and revision of standards, increasing the application and promotion of standards, and studying the construction of a standardized pallet recycling system. Where conditions permit, it can be carried out in advance, and combined with the actual situation in the region, formulate policies to guide enterprises to speed up the application of standards, and recommend local standards and enterprise standards with mature application, advanced level and suitability for promotion to rise to industry standards.

  (B) improve the level of logistics information. Encourage the orderly development of enterprise business information service platforms. By integrating and allocating logistics resources through the platform, we can solve the asymmetric contradiction between supply and demand of logistics, realize lean and visual management, and provide efficient, convenient, honest and safe logistics services. Conditional areas can coordinate with relevant departments, explore the integration of the existing public information of transportation, industry and commerce, taxation, customs and other departments and make it public, so as to enhance service quality, improve logistics efficiency, realize resource sharing from the region to the whole country and from the government to enterprises, and provide favorable conditions for the vast number of commercial logistics enterprises to expand their business scale and region and reduce transaction costs.

  (3) Encourage the development of specialized and socialized logistics. Specialization and socialization are the development directions of commerce and trade logistics in the future. It is necessary to support the transformation and upgrading of traditional commercial materials storage and transportation enterprises, and develop into a modern commercial logistics distribution center and a professional and large-scale direction. Guide industrial and commercial enterprises to change the traditional management mode of "big and complete, small and complete", deepen and refine the professional division of labor, implement the separation of main and auxiliary, and promote the marketization and socialization of logistics. Encourage the development of embedded third-party logistics that embeds logistics services into all aspects of procurement, production, sales and after-sales service of manufacturing enterprises and has the ability to integrate supply chains. Encourage the development of e-commerce logistics that relies on e-commerce platform and combines online and offline. Encourage the development of agricultural products logistics, and form a variety of production and marketing convergence modes such as agricultural batch docking, agricultural supermarket docking, and direct supply and direct sales.

  (four) continue to carry out the demonstration work of urban logistics distribution. On the basis of the pilot project of urban distribution carried out by the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Finance, relevant demonstration work will continue. First, we should optimize the layout of urban distribution network. Increase support for the construction of urban logistics distribution centers and terminal outlets to solve the "last mile" distribution problem. Second, we must actively develop a variety of distribution methods. Support e-commerce enterprises to actively develop offline pick-up points and promote various distribution methods such as "online booking store pick-up" and "automatic container pick-up". Accelerate the development of joint distribution, promote enterprises to strengthen horizontal alliance and realize benefit sharing. Encourage and advocate chain operation, support enterprises to develop unified procurement, unified warehousing and unified delivery, and improve the centralized distribution rate. Third, we should improve the development environment of urban logistics distribution. We are actively studying with relevant departments to promote the introduction of guiding opinions to promote the development of trade logistics.

  (five) to guide the development of industry norms. The trade and logistics industry has always been a difficult point in rectifying the market order. It is necessary to accelerate the construction of business credit system, strengthen the integration and disclosure of credit information, establish and improve the incentive and punishment mechanism, increase the cost of enterprise dishonesty, and guide the behavior of market participants. It is necessary to give full play to the leading role of commercial departments in standardizing market order and breaking regional blockades and industrial monopolies, strengthen overall coordination, and severely crack down on unfair competition and illegal business practices.

  (6) Coordinate and implement various support policies. In recent years, in order to support the healthy development of the logistics industry, the State Council has issued a series of support policies in finance, taxation, land and vehicle management, and achieved good results. Of course, some policies have not been fully implemented, and the "reform of the camp" has not been launched for a long time, and the effect has not yet fully appeared, and even the tax burden of some enterprises has risen. For the policies that have not been implemented in the field of trade logistics, the Ministry of Commerce will carefully sort out and analyze the reasons, strengthen horizontal communication and coordination, and put forward policy suggestions in time.

  Hu Suojin:Thank you, Deputy Inspector Wang. Let’s invite Director Shen of Beijing Municipal Commission of Commerce to introduce the development of commercial logistics in Beijing.

  Shen Jinsheng:I am very glad to have the opportunity to briefly introduce the development of Beijing urban logistics, especially commercial logistics, to you today through the platform of the Ministry of Commerce. As the leader of the Ministry said just now, logistics is not only a basic industry, but also a leading industry in the whole economic and social system. At the same time, it is a compound industry that integrates facilities, information, management and many other factors. As a mega-city with a population of more than 20 million in Beijing, urban logistics, especially commercial logistics, plays a very important and irreplaceable basic role in ensuring the normal operation of the city.

  Over the years, the Beijing Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have attached great importance to the development of the logistics industry according to the requirements of the State Council. Generally speaking, among the main economic indicators related to the logistics industry in Beijing, one is the total social logistics, the other is the total operating income of the logistics industry, plus the added value created by the logistics industry, all of which have shown a sustained and steady growth trend. At the same time, the proportion of total logistics cost to GDP, which is recognized by the world as an indicator of the efficiency and level of logistics development, has been decreasing continuously in recent years. Despite the pressure of rigid rising industry costs in recent years, the total cost as a percentage of GDP I just mentioned was 15.1% in Beijing in 2012, which was 0.4 percentage points lower than that in 2010 and 2.9 percentage points lower than the national average. This shows that the intensive degree and operational efficiency of Beijing’s logistics industry have been continuously or steadily improved.

  In the process of the development of the logistics industry, Beijing has carried out a lot of related work in the following aspects:

  First, strengthen planning guidance. At the beginning of the 11th Five-Year Plan, Beijing issued the city-wide logistics development plan for the first time. This year, the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" for the development of the logistics industry was also released. In the Eleventh Five-Year Plan, Beijing clearly put forward that the overall pattern of capital logistics development is called "three rings, five belts and multiple centers". It is clearly stated in the Twelfth Five-Year Plan that Beijing should devote itself to building a three-dimensional modern logistics system with wide coverage. If we summarize the industrial characteristics or the macro layout and trend of Beijing’s logistics development, there are a few words: First, the general purpose of Beijing’s logistics development, according to the positioning of the capital city and the mega-consumption city, is called facilitating the people, benefiting the people, promoting development, serving the whole country and radiating the world, which has both basic functions and open requirements. From the content of industrial development, we should strive to build an urban efficient and intensive logistics system based on the operation guarantee of mega-cities, with professional logistics system and socialized third-party logistics as the backbone and international logistics and logistics headquarters economy as the characteristics. Beijing’s logistics can be summarized in just a few words.

  After the implementation of these two five-year plans, Beijing’s logistics and industry have made remarkable progress in the facilities construction of logistics nodes, the rational layout of logistics channels and the construction of terminal logistics facilities, and also greatly improved the service function and emergency response ability of the urban logistics system. In the field of business circulation, it is manifested in several aspects: First, the unified distribution rate of commercial chains in Beijing continues to increase, and the current unified distribution rate of commerce is probably over 80%. The unified distribution rate of commerce in suburbs and towns also exceeds 60%, and the unified distribution rate index also reflects the degree of organization and intensification of a city’s commercial development. Second, great progress has been made in the construction of cold chain logistics system and facilities involving people’s livelihood, especially in recent years. At present, the total storage capacity of cold storage in Beijing has reached 800,000 tons, and the per capita storage capacity has reached 40 kilograms. Frankly speaking, this figure is much lower than that of developed countries, but this figure should be seen in our country, and such a proportion is far ahead of the national level. Third, rapid progress has been made in the construction of some specialized logistics systems, especially those closely related to the daily life of urban residents, such as medical logistics. Through the continuous introduction of new technologies in the logistics field, including the construction of related facilities, Beijing has basically realized the visual monitoring and traceability of the whole process from inventory to hospital beds, which is closely related to the life, health and safety of citizens. As the capital, books in Beijing have advantages, and large cultural and publishing institutions are concentrated.Beijing’s annual distribution capacity in the book market has reached 300 million copies a year, and it has built the largest distribution center for books and publications in China and even in Asia. Fourth, the diversified logistics service model has supported the development of some emerging retail formats such as e-commerce. Due to the characteristics of Beijing, the activity of e-commerce in Beijing, especially B2C, is still in a leading position in China, and six of the nine B2C enterprises with relatively large national rankings are headquartered in Beijing. National e-commerce accounted for 6.8% of the total sales, and Beijing accounted for about 10.5% from January to September this year, maintaining a growth rate of 43.5%. Adapting to the rapid development of e-commerce, it requires diversified logistics service modes to solve the "last mile" problem of logistics development and distribution. In recent years, Beijing has also made a lot of explorations in these areas and achieved good results.

  Second, we should strengthen policy guidance. In addition to releasing the five-year industrial development plan, Beijing has successively issued the implementation plan for the adjustment and revitalization of Beijing’s logistics industry in recent years, and implemented the State-run document. Beijing has also issued a series of policy documents, such as Beijing’s implementation opinions on policies and measures to promote the healthy development of the logistics industry, which has taken the lead in realizing the same price of electricity, gas and heat in the logistics industry as industrial enterprises in the country, creating a good environment for the development of industries and enterprises.

  At the same time, the commercial department has also strengthened the guidance and support of government financial funds for the development of logistics industry. Since 2002, Beijing has devoted special funds from commercial circulation to support the development of urban commercial logistics industry. One of the directions we support is the construction of key logistics facilities related to people’s livelihood, and the other is the construction of logistics informatization, which also includes the application of advanced technology in the logistics industry. In particular, the construction of major agricultural products circulation facilities has always been the focus of policy guidance and support of the commercial sector.

  Third, encourage innovation in the logistics industry and the application of new technologies. First, in the field of urban logistics joint distribution, in recent years, through continuous exploration, "one hundred cities" has emerged, which is characterized by solving the last 100 meters or the last kilometer. In terms of joint distribution of agricultural products, we have established a direct purchase alliance of agricultural and sideline products, hoping to apply the concept of logistics joint distribution to the circulation of agricultural products. Second, by establishing a public information service platform and solving the problem of information asymmetry to improve the operational efficiency of the logistics industry itself, it is actually an effective connection between supply and demand. For example, there is a platform in Beijing at present, that is, the Logistics China Platform, which has a market share of more than 95% in the trunk bulk logistics market around Beijing, and more than 20,000 transactions are made by this platform every day. It should be said that this is a good or good performance. At the same time, there are some public service platforms in Beijing, such as e-commerce supporting cross-border logistics, also known as international logistics information platform, and logistics finance to solve the problem of recycling funds deposited from bulk products in the logistics field, so as to solve the effective use of warehousing resources. The use of information has played a very good role in improving the efficiency of the industry. Third, we should actively support and guide the logistics field to improve the efficiency and benefit of enterprise and industry development through new technologies or new organization and management. At present, in Beijing, especially in key enterprises, new technologies such as rapid decomposition RFID of visual goods in the Internet of Things are being widely used.I also believe that it will provide new impetus and support for the next rapid development of Beijing’s logistics industry. Thank you.

  Hu Suojin:Thank you, Director Shen. Let’s go to the last link, please ask reporters and friends questions.

  Economic Information Daily:Excuse me, Deputy Inspector Wang, just now you introduced that urban logistics distribution is the focus of the next step. Can you tell me what are the main outstanding problems of urban logistics distribution now? What has the Ministry of Commerce done to solve the outstanding problems? Thank you.

  Wang Xuanqing:The outstanding problems in urban logistics distribution are now concerned by the media and all walks of life. Cities are the gathering places of population, production and consumption, especially in mega-cities such as Beijing and Shanghai. Urban logistics is mainly embodied in trade logistics, which is the "last mile" logistics activity for residents’ consumption and industrial and commercial enterprises, and it is very active and accounts for a relatively high proportion. It is precisely because of these characteristics of the city and the laws of urban logistics operation that the current urban logistics distribution is facing outstanding problems. The problems of urban logistics distribution can be summarized as "three difficulties and two more": difficulty in passing, difficulty in parking, difficulty in loading and unloading, excessive fees and fines. Due to the pressure of traffic management in cities, urban road resources and traffic resources are generally prior to public passenger transport and car passenger transport. There are many restrictions on freight vehicles entering the city, such as time limit, vehicle types and permits. It is precisely because of many restrictions that it is difficult to pass. In addition, the parking space of trucks is larger than that of passenger cars, and the problem is more prominent. In the process of entering the city, all relevant departments have relevant requirements for the management of freight vehicles, and there are many controls, so the fees are too high, and there are often fines. These problems involve many management departments, and the difficulty of coordination is also relatively great. What’s more, there are many small and medium-sized companies engaged in urban logistics, and the personnel are complicated, which brings certain difficulties to management, and some of them have vicious competition and integrity problems.

  I have introduced some of the work done by the Ministry of Commerce, and it also involves this aspect. For example, one is to pay attention to planning. In 2011, our Ministry, together with the National Development and Reform Commission and the General Supply and Marketing Corporation, issued the Special Plan for the Development of Commercial Logistics, which has special plans and requirements. In addition, we have formulated 24 related standards. Then we should focus on mode innovation. It is precisely because urban distribution faces the above characteristics, on the one hand, it is the improvement of management, on the other hand, for enterprises, it is necessary to explore some new modes, reduce the idling of freight vehicles, improve handling efficiency, etc., so we focus on mode innovation and solve the problems of difficult and expensive distribution through mode innovation. Among the 9 pilot cities of joint distribution last year and 15 this year, the focus is on the "one-to-many" unified distribution, centralized distribution and joint distribution service mode, changing the traditional mode of self-distribution by enterprises and implementing socialized distribution, such as the "City 100" mode introduced by Director Shen, such as the "online booking and store taking" mode of online shopping and physical store cooperation introduced by me earlier, and integrating resources and intensive resources through unified centralized distribution by third parties, reducing the number of vehicles entering the city.

  The third is to grasp the integration of information, which is very important to rely on information and the logistics information service platform I introduced earlier. One of the most important ways to solve the problem of information asymmetry in car search, car search, warehouse search and warehouse search at present is to establish an information platform. Through the information platform and informatization means, information can be released and transactions can be made on the platform, which can make the supply and demand sides dock as soon as possible and solve the problem of goods and cars docking.

  The fourth is to promote standards, not only the problem of urban distribution, but also the problem of non-uniform standards in the whole logistics operation. Because of the non-uniform standards or the incomplete application of the formulated standards, it is difficult to play the integration level of logistics operation, making it difficult to play the characteristics of integrated logistics operation and network operation, and it is also difficult to intensive resources. Earlier, I cited the example of pallet, which is the core link in the whole logistics operation. The small pallet is more than one square meter, but it affects the whole logistics operation. Because of the nonstandard pallet, it is difficult to standardize the shelves related to it, the relevant loading and unloading equipment, and the nonstandard pallet is not easy to match the vehicle when loading, which leads to a series of problems such as the insufficient use of the loading space of the truck. The root standard is the existing product packaging problem, and the standardization of packaging is a very root problem. If the product is designed according to the prescribed mode, it can be well matched with the standard pallet, and the standard pallet can be matched with the standard vehicle, so that the number of handling and unloading can be reduced and the efficiency of loading can be improved, which is also our next step.

  China Daily:Excuse me, Director Shen, just now you mentioned the "last mile" problem. There are many reports on the "last mile", which is the difficulty of distribution. Just now you mentioned that Beijing’s logistics development is better than that of the whole country. What are your experiences and opinions? How to solve the "last mile" problem?

  Shen JinshengThe "last mile" and "last hundred meters" are a big problem in urban logistics distribution. If we disassemble the cost structure of the enterprise in detail, we will find that the "last mile" consumes a large proportion of manpower, time and expenses in the whole enterprise. In recent years, Beijing’s commercial departments are also actively exploring and promoting how to solve the "last mile" problem through the application of new technologies or new service formats and service innovations. We are actively exploring the new service format of "last mile" distribution. If you walk around the urban area of Beijing or some relatively large communities and communities, you will find a signboard called "City 100", which has now become an influential brand enterprise with "last 100 meters" distribution. It means to concentrate the business of many enterprises in the last 100 meters on him through equal cooperation between enterprises; Many people experience the terminal of express delivery in their daily life as a stall, and some of them are similar to visiting prison. They send it in through the iron gate, concentrating the "last 100 meters" business of many enterprises in one enterprise, and intensively and intensively utilizing enterprise resources through the mode of joint distribution.

  The starting point of this model is conducive to the improvement of the efficiency of the industry itself, and it is a problem of improving efficiency to take out the most time-consuming and laborious piece for everyone to promote together. Second, it’s convenient for residents. It turns out that they are all tourists. If you buy something online and want a courier to come to your home, many people may not feel at ease, or even if you make an appointment to wait at home at one o’clock, if I arrive half an hour late in the traffic jam and you go out again, then I will come again in the afternoon, which is tantamount to a waste of manpower. Through the intensive form, tourists are turned into sitting merchants, which is equivalent to setting up such a fixed site in a large community or university for the concentrated distribution demand of the last 100 meters, that is, turning it into the mail room of the university or community, whether you pass by to work or your family helps you get it. This is an innovation in format or service mode. Third, it has changed the image of our industry, unified service standards and standardized corporate image. After working in this community for a long time, you, this site and your employees have become an integral part of the community residents, and the mutual trust between enterprises and clients can be improved. It should be said that it is a win-win model from efficiency and benefit to social effect. At present, this model has more than 170 sites in Beijing. By the end of this year, we plan to get 200 sites. According to the current service level, it can directly serve 1,000 communities or universities, with a population of more than 5 million.

  The second is to actively guide and encourage the integrated utilization of existing resources, such as encouraging businesses in some communities to make use of their idle resources and open them up as workplaces for the last 100 meters of logistics or to provide such services. In the future, many community business centers will gradually be transformed into service centers in cities. Besides selling some things, they will also be loaded with a variety of service functions, which will really make them become community residents or assistants and helpers in their lives. This is also an important measure to improve the convenience of citizens’ lives and solve the problem of centralized utilization of resources.

  The third is to fully rely on the development of new technologies, especially the technology of mobile commerce, so that logistics, capital flow, information flow and business flow can be truly integrated through the technical means of mobile commerce, which will also help solve the last 100 meters problem in the distribution process.

  The fourth approach is that we actively encourage and promote some traditional commercial enterprises, including other types of enterprises, to transform and upgrade in the process of urban development, and actively join the content of residents’ service, which is the organic integration of online and offline, and provide solutions to the problem of solving the last 100 meters of distribution, which is also the focus of the next development of commercial departments in this field.

  International Business Daily:I’d like to ask Director Shen. You just mentioned that Beijing has set up a direct purchase and direct supply alliance for agricultural products distribution. Please tell us something about this. What problems have you encountered? What are the plans for the next step? Thank you.

  Shen Jinsheng:This has been going on for more than a year. At the end of last year, under the guidance of the Beijing Municipal Government, people in the industry, the suppliers and demanders of agricultural and sideline products, including colleagues from the business circles in the whole industrial chain in distribution processing, set up a direct purchase and direct supply alliance of agricultural products voluntarily and for mutual benefit. What I just introduced is the last mile or the last hundred meters, which is aimed at individual consumers. Compared with Beijing, there are many group consumers besides individuals, such as the Ministry of Commerce, CCTV and Beijing Daily. You are a big unit, with at least canteens, and many institutions have canteens. Similarly, there are demands for agricultural and sideline products. The realistic mode is that no matter how big or small the company needs, he sends people to the new place to buy vegetables himself every morning, such as how much carrots and white radishes are needed, and he may pick and choose and finally buy them back with only 1/3, 1/2 or 1/5 of the car. The starting point of establishing this alliance is to solve the group’s needs for agricultural and sideline products. Through the producers of agricultural and sideline products, that is, vegetable growers, agricultural cooperative organizations and third-party logistics service providers, including decomposition and distribution processing, as well as transportation and distribution, plus the group customers of the terminal are integrated into a platform, and through information means, such as what goods and how much they need to purchase in the canteen of Beijing Daily tomorrow, a professional third-party logistics service provider will place an order on the information platform the next day.In this way, several problems have been solved: First, the problem of empty driving of urban vehicles in Beijing has been solved. Originally, a cart was needed to pull 200 kilograms and 300 kilograms. Now, with professional distribution, a car may meet the service needs of several large customers nearby at the same time, thus solving the problem of intensive use of vehicles. Second, through information technology, these products produced by agricultural cooperative organizations may be assembled in Beijing, may not enter the Beijing market, or may be around. If your demand is relatively large, the goods provided by farmers just meet your needs, or may be directly delivered to your unit, which will be of positive help to further simplify the circulation link or smooth the logistics channels. This attempt has been made for more than a year. Now there are about 900 upstream and downstream member units participating in this alliance, and the daily distribution scale can reach about 1.2 million kilograms. Now the annual transaction volume is about 1.5 billion, which has played a very good role, or as a new logistics service model exploration, it has solved the problem of logistics joint distribution of group customers, which is a new attempt.

  If there are any problems, such a new service format and mode still need to be gradually familiar and accepted by all sectors of society, or how to further expand it, and better integrate the common logistics and distribution needs of social groups through information platforms, which is the focus of the next development. How to make the function of this platform solve the direct connection between supply and demand from now on, and further increase or broaden the service content, including the construction of agricultural and sideline products information platform, whether the accumulated customer resources, including the previous transaction scale, can gradually have the ability to find the price of some agricultural and sideline products, how to better integrate more agricultural production resources, and provide diversified and layered consumer demand satisfaction options for the Beijing market, these are the next new models, which are being further explored.

  China economic herald:Is there foreign capital involved in the logistics industry? What is the situation of foreign investment in our logistics industry? Thank you.

  Wang Xuanqing:The logistics industry is also the logistics of ordinary goods, and it is a field with a high degree of opening to the outside world. Moreover, it is not a recent thing for foreign-funded enterprises to enter China. For example, in the express delivery industry, FedEx, DHL, Holland Tiandi and so on have basically come in. In recent years, there have been a lot of entry into warehousing real estate, such as Pross, which is familiar to everyone, and Amber. Enterprises with foreign investment backgrounds have entered our domestic market one after another. The entry of these foreign-funded enterprises is of positive significance to the improvement of the overall logistics industry, the introduction of new technologies and some new management models. As far as industrial policy is concerned, they are still encouraged to develop. Of course, in the process of development, I also hope that my national enterprises will gradually develop and grow up in the process of learning from foreign-funded enterprises, such as express delivery. In the past, foreign capital basically occupied a large market, but in recent years, express delivery enterprises such as SF Express and Three Links and One Reach have developed very fast, especially SF Express. Now, the annual turnover exceeds 20 billion to 30 billion, and I have my own airline and about 30 cargo planes, so I can compete with foreign-funded enterprises in terms of volume.

  Radio China International:I have a question for Deputy Inspector Wang. Just now, you introduced the situation of urban logistics distribution. Please talk about the reasons and performance of the higher overall logistics cost in China. Thank you.

  Wang Xuanqing:The overall logistics cost in China is relatively high, which is also widely discussed, and there are many reports in the media. It is very important for China to reflect the logistics indicators as a whole. Compared with GDP, the total cost of social logistics has been maintained at around 18% for many years. It was higher in previous years, reaching a peak of 24% in 1991, and now it is basically maintained at around 18%. The decline in recent years is not obvious. In terms of performance, the total cost of social logistics is on the high side, and the ratio with GDP is relatively high, which is a performance on the one hand.

  On the other hand, from the perspective of structure, logistics costs, storage costs and management costs are higher in proportion, which also reflects that the operation level of the whole logistics is still relatively extensive. There is a figure. In 2012, the total logistics cost in China was 9.4 trillion, and the ratio with GDP was 18%, which was 6.8 percentage points higher than the world average in that year. We are not only higher than developed countries, for example, the United States is 8.5%, Japan is 8.7%, and Germany is 8.3%. Compared with the BRICS countries whose economic development level is basically the same as ours, we are also higher, India is 13%, we are 5 percentage points higher than him, and Brazil is 11.6%, which is about 7 percentage points higher than him.

  From a structural point of view, the gap in management costs is larger. For example, according to the statistics in 2012, the proportion of transportation costs to GDP is 1.7 times of the average level of developed countries, which is higher, but not too high. The storage cost is 2.2 times higher, but the management cost is 6.9 times higher. In terms of management fees, we are more prominent. These performances show that the logistics industry as a whole has not got rid of the extensive development model, and there are many reasons. I will point out a major basic reason. Objectively speaking, this is related to the economic development stage and industrial layout of our country. We are still in the stage of heavy chemical industry, and the industrial layout is characterized by the fact that most energy and resource products are in the western region and the northern region, and most of the processing industry markets are in the eastern and southern regions. There are many long-distance and low-value bulk commodities transported in large spans, which inevitably leads to higher overall freight volume and freight turnover. In 2012, China’s freight volume was 41.32 billion tons, and freight turnover was 17.3 trillion tons kilometers, both of which are very large, ranking first in the world. Compared with developed countries, the freight volume and turnover of goods per unit of GDP are much higher. For example, in 2009, the turnover of goods per unit of GDP in China was 5.1 times that of the United States, and the turnover of goods per unit of GDP was 5.1 times that of the United States, 14.3 times that of Japan and 16.4 times that of Germany. Therefore, everyone should look at it objectively. The stage of economic development and industrial layout we are now in have a certain relationship with the relatively large country and large span.This is a fundamental factor.

  The second factor is related to the logistics industry. The threshold of the logistics industry is relatively low and the degree of organization is relatively weak. Small and medium-sized companies account for more than 90%, which is bound to be lower in operational efficiency. According to statistics, the share of the top 20 road transport enterprises in China is less than 2%, which is the so-called market concentration. We only have 2%, which is very low. The top five road transport enterprises in the United States account for 60% of the market, and our 20 companies are less than 2%. China’s road freight companies have an average of 1.5 vehicles, even less than 2 vehicles, of which only 1 vehicle company accounts for 40%, which shows that our overall logistics operation is small, scattered and weak. Of course, the bigger the company, the higher its operating efficiency, and the smaller the company, the lower its operating efficiency.

  The third reason is related to the degree of informatization. Asymmetric information, cars can’t find goods, goods can’t find cars, warehouses can’t find cars and goods, and warehouses can’t find warehouses, which leads to high vacancy rate of vehicles and insufficient utilization of warehouses, which is also an important factor leading to high logistics costs. For example, the vacancy rate of road freight cars in our developed Shanghai in 2011 was 37%, which was three times higher than that in developed countries. The empty driving rate is not to go out empty, but to go one way, that is, to pull the goods after going out, but to come back empty, which is more common. Generally, there is no such thing as going out and coming back empty.

  In addition, there are some other reasons, such as high institutional costs, highway charges, fines, fuel costs, labor costs, venue rental fees and other issues, which are all reasons.

  China News Service:I would like to ask Deputy Inspector Wang, just now you introduced that there are still so many problems in China’s logistics industry. What is the significance of solving these problems and developing China’s commercial logistics industry to the whole market or consumption? Thank you.

  Wang Xuanqing:The logistics industry itself is a compound industry, not an industry, but an industry composed of many industries. Therefore, it takes a long time to solve the problem of high logistics cost and low logistics efficiency, and it cannot be achieved overnight by one or two departments. Therefore, first of all, media friends and the public should have an objective understanding of this problem. Reducing the logistics cost is now the main starting point for the government to grasp the logistics work. In 2008 and 2009, in order to cope with the international financial crisis, we established ten industries to revitalize, among which the logistics industry was listed as the only service industry, which was unprecedented in history. In the past, the industries focused on revitalization were still focused on industry or agriculture and manufacturing, and the service industry was included in the revitalization for the first time. Therefore, in 2009, the State Council specially issued a plan for the adjustment and revitalization of the logistics industry. In 2011, the logistics chronic disease that was widely reflected by the society was the problem of high logistics cost and low efficiency. At that time, the media had relatively concentrated reports. the State Council specially held a meeting and issued the so-called nine national policies to promote logistics, and all relevant departments were also doing related work. As for trade logistics, Director Hu just introduced that trade logistics is mainly concentrated in cities. The characteristics of urban logistics are that urban traffic pressure, land cost pressure, labor cost pressure, commercial resource pressure and other aspects are relatively high due to the relatively intensive urban resources, market agglomeration, consumption agglomeration and personnel agglomeration.Therefore, the position of urban logistics in the whole logistics is becoming more and more prominent. First, the proportion of costs is getting higher and higher. For example, the price increase of agricultural and sideline products from Shouguang to Xinfadi in Shandong is about 1 time, while the price increase from Xinfadi to the final farmer’s retail store is about 4 times. Of course, it is not entirely the logistics cost, but it also includes other expenses. However, the rising cost of logistics is indeed in a state of sudden rise. To solve the problem of trade logistics, it is of great significance, or decisive significance, to reduce the whole logistics cost. This is the first point.

  Second, it is precisely because of the characteristics of urban logistics that urban logistics is also the development direction of modern logistics. Some high-end logistics industries are concentrated in cities, because the characteristics of urban logistics are multi-batch and small-batch. For example, a supermarket and a consumer do not need much, but they need to be replenished frequently, requiring accurate, timely, point-by-point and quantity delivery to consumers. At the same time, due to the pressure of urban resources and environment, high requirements are put forward for logistics, which promotes the innovation of logistics mode and the wide application of various technologies. Now some high-end and most advanced logistics technologies have been applied in the field of business logistics. If you have the opportunity to visit the distribution centers of some large chain enterprises, automated three-dimensional warehouses, automated sorting equipment, information monitoring, and visual management throughout the process, these are all relatively high-end developments in the field of logistics, and the application of RFID technology and equipment is very wide in this field. Therefore, the development of trade logistics is of great significance, which plays a decisive role in reducing the whole logistics cost and improving efficiency, and is also of great significance in leading the transformation and upgrading of the logistics industry and applying new technologies and equipment.

  Hu Suojin:Just now, Deputy Inspector Wang and Deputy Director Shen introduced the development of commercial logistics in China and the promotion of commercial logistics in Beijing, and exchanged views on issues of concern to everyone. I hope friends in the press will continue to care about the development of China’s trade and logistics industry, help us improve our work and promote the faster and better development of China’s trade and logistics industry. If you have any further questions about trade logistics after the meeting, you can contact our information office and we will give you feedback as soon as possible.

  Today’s press conference is over. Thank you, Deputy Inspector Wang and Deputy Director Shen, and thank you all.
