■On April 11, 2017, the launch ceremony of the China-Europe two-way train was held at Shilong . The picture shows the X8426, a China-Europe two-way train from Shilong to Russia, ready to be launched
, Dongguan Time Network, data shows that countries and regions along the "Belt and Road" have now become the third largest export market in Dongguan and will become the main export market within five years. Why can the "Belt and Road" become Dongguan's third largest export market? Analysis found that Dongguan has quietly built a batch of hardware and software services. For example, the China-Europe two-way freight train on land transportation was opened, the water-rail intermodal transit channel on sea transportation was opened, and the "China Super Trunk Line" connecting Hong Kong Airport was opened, jointly creating a "bridgehead" for sea, land and air linkage.
Sea transport
"Sea-rail transport " saves half of the time export of Dongguan goods
On November 13, 2015, the Taiwan direct flight ship "Dongyue" was appointed to Humen Port. After completing customs and inspection and quarantine procedures, the car accessories sent from Taichung area were transferred to Dongguan Shilong Railway International Logistics Center by short-distance transport trucks, and then sent to Chukursa, Uzbekistan by railway.
This is the first batch of goods sent by Dongguan’s “Sea-Rail Intermodal Transportation”, which means that the logistics nodes for building north-south channels are opened around Dongguan, and the coastal "One Road" and the ports along the border "Belt" have reached a "seamless connection". Shilong has also become a hub and a sea-rail intermodal transport center for the cross-border connection of the “Belt and Road”.
Relying on the port advantages of Dongguan Port , "sea-rail transport" has shortened the logistics and transportation time from Dongguan to Russia and Middle Eastern countries by nearly half. In the past, most goods in Guangdong had to be transported to Central Asia through northern ports such as Lianyungang. The time saved by Dongguan's model compared with the previous one can fully meet the cargo transportation needs with high added value and tight time requirements.
Chashan Town Youyoumei Home Co., Ltd. is the beneficiary. Shi Peng, general manager of the company's business department, said that the company's arrival time was about one month before, but now it is shipped to customers through Shilong Railway Transportation. The transportation time from Dongguan to Russia is only about 15 days. It is estimated that after the launch of Dongguan’s “Sea-Rail Intermodal Transportation”, each container will save US$200 in cost and transportation time in the past 7 days under the same conditions.
According to statistics from the Municipal Bureau of Commerce, currently, Dongguan Port has 19 domestic trade routes and 4 international routes, ranking among the top ports in the country. On January 13 this year, the direct flight from Dongguan Port to Southeast Asia was officially opened. This route is affiliated weekly. In addition to providing fast direct flight services to Thailand Linchaban and Vietnam Ho Chi Minh , it can also achieve rapid transit of goods through the developed route network of COSCO Shipping, convenient access to Africa, Southeast Asia, Middle East Red Sea, Europe and other places, opening up the channel for Dongguan cargoes to enter and exit directly from the Dongguan port to countries around the world.
Land transportation
China-Europe two-way trains create a "new channel" for trade and logistics
In December 2015, the first "Guangdong-Manchu-Russia" train departed from Shilong, Dongguan and arrived in Russia via Manzhouli, Inner Mongolia. On June 8, 2016, the train was identified as the China-Europe freight train brand, and it departed from Dongguan and other 8 places on the same day after the unified brand and logo.
In April this year, this train, which is related to the development of the "Belt and Road" project, achieved a new breakthrough. On April 11, the "China-Europe Two-way Freight Train" X 8426 (Shilong-Volsino) was officially launched, and China and Russia jointly created a "new channel" of trade and logistics across about 12,000 kilometers. The two-way train will start to operate weekly shifts in May. Based on the current more mature container railway transportation products, it is planned to open a railway postal channel from Shilong to Moscow from August to September this year. The launch of the two-way train of
China-Europe (Shilong-Volsino) is another major achievement of our city's continuous and in-depth implementation of the "Belt and Road" initiative. According to statistics from the Municipal Bureau of Commerce, in 2016, the "Guangdong New Europe" train was launched 2-3 times a week, and the "Guangdong Manchu and Russia" train was launched in a total of 7 trains. Currently, the Shilong Railway's international freight shipments to Central Asia rank among the top in the country.
Dongguan’s efforts in land transportation have also been recognized and supported by relevant departments.On October 8 last year, the Office of the Leading Group for Promoting the Construction of the "Belt and Road" issued the "China-Europe Express Construction and Development Plan (2016-2020)", and Dongguan was included in the China-Europe Express Hub Node. According to the Municipal Bureau of Commerce, the National Port Office has agreed to include the Guangdong (Shilong) Railway International Logistics Base Project in the "13th Five-Year Plan" of the National Port and is waiting for further approval by the State Council.
air freight
paving the "Air Silk Road" of the countries along Tongda, Dongguan,
Dongguan's electronic information industry is developed, and a large number of electronic accessories are imported from abroad every year. Many times, air freight is required, but Dongguan does not have an airport. The emergence of the "Super China Trunkline" project solved this problem. At present, the project is located in the Liaobus inspection site.
This model fully utilizes Dongguan's favorable location advantage in the center of the three major airports of Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. It set up an international cargo station in Dongguan to connect to the Hong Kong airport, and transfers air cargo to Dongguan customs clearance land-air transport logistics services, forming bonded logistics docking between mainland cities and overseas airports, and paving the "Air Silk Road" of Dongguan Tongda countries. The concept of
was first proposed by Dongguan Yuehua Logistics Co., Ltd. "This model simplifies customs clearance procedures, reduces logistics costs, and has barrier-free land-air transport. Companies can quickly send goods to and from all over the world through this trunk line in Dongguan and receive goods sent by customers from all over the world." said Huang Dong, the company's business department manager.
According to statistics, in 2015, our city’s enterprises imported nearly US$700 million through the “Super China Trunk Line” business model, a year-on-year increase of 20%. It is expected that after the project is upgraded, it will bring about US$2 billion in increments to the city's foreign trade import and export every year.
makes full use of Dongguan's favorable location advantages in the center of the three major airports in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Dongguan has issued the "Dongguan Air Cargo Fund Management Measures", which strengthens financial support for Shenzhen and Guangzhou Airport Dongguan Freight Stations. At this point, Dongguan sea routes have Dongguan Port, Shilong International Logistics Center in railways, and "Super China Trunk Line" in air transport. A sea, land and air integrated logistics hub has taken shape.
