[ Truck Home Original] Recently, we found a lot of problems during the interview with card friends. But if you want to say that what card friends talk about the most, I think the freight rate is still the price. To put it bluntly, our sports car is all about making money. As long as we have more money, our wife and children can live a good life, so it doesn’t matter if we are hard or tired. But after the epidemic began, it seemed that the freight rate had not risen much. And today, let’s talk about the freight rate issue.

card friends asked the relevant departments: What should I do if the shipping fee is sluggish?

Not long ago, we saw a question from a card friend on the Chinese government website. The card friend said that the freight fee is now sluggish, with only 2,600 yuan in freight for 1,550 kilometers, which is not enough for fuel and highway fees. In addition, the vehicle iteration is fast, so it will be very unfavorable to the transportation industry. Looking back at the video we interviewed card friends before, it seems that the shipping fee is really worrying.

And this card friend also received a response from the Ministry of Transport. The Ministry of Transport stated that in the future, in addition to implementing " deregulation, regulation and service ", it will also accelerate the improvement of the operation monitoring system of the road freight market, guide market price expectations, and promote the interest chain between cargo owners, logistics companies, platform companies and drivers. And in the answer, the concept of " Internet + " was also mentioned.

After seeing this answer, many card friends were wondering whether a national unified starting price will be launched in the future? Or, will the state regulate prices accordingly to protect drivers’ rights and interests? After our inference, we found that this may be a bit difficult. But in fact, the pricing problem is not unsolvable, and it was mentioned in the answer of the Ministry of Transport. How does the freight rate of

return to a healthy level? We also need to start with the "cause of the disease"!

Only by prescribing the right medicine can we eradicate the root. The same is true for restoring freight rates. After some summary, we found several main reasons for the sluggish freight rates:

. Overloaded vehicles "grabbing their lives", resulting in a vicious cycle

. As many drivers say, "In front of the blue brand 4 meters 2, 6 meters 8 has no advantage at all." Indeed, the 4.2 meters blue brand light truck not only has low fuel consumption, but also has low high-speed charges according to Class I cars. In the face of the past "Ten Ton Kings", 6.8 meters has no advantage or even a way out.

The market space is squeezed by 6.8 meters, helpless, can only engage in price wars or overloads, and this will inevitably affect the living space of other models. In this way, the vicious cycle caused the overall freight rate to fall.

. Internet platforms intensify the "price war"

With the invasion of the Internet platform, freight rates have become more transparent. Not only that, the subsidies and bidding between Internet platforms also directly forced card friends to fight a "price war" for a trip to goods. Among them, the cargo owners also invisibly developed the situation of "just as low-priced cars". Even the card friends complained to us before that some cargo owners on the platform said directly, "Just go back to the bus."

Similarly, there are also "fixed" orders on the platform. Card friends of this kind of order can only accept it before contacting. The ban on traffic restrictions, loading and unloading fees, and entry and exit fees are all unknown. What may be waiting for themselves is a loss-making transaction.

. There are many cars and fewer goods. The less money you make, the lower the threshold for buying a car, the

Although the freight rate is transparent, the driver's life is actually not transparent. Many outsiders often think that truck drivers are a livelihood that makes money but has no requirements. With the emergence of the "zero down payment car purchase" gimmick, many people rashly entered the freight operation industry, which once again exacerbated the phenomenon of "many cars and fewer goods".

At the same time, in recent years, problems such as "chip panic" have caused some impact on the economy from a certain perspective. The fluctuations in production also determine the reduction of supply. Under double stimulation, freight costs will naturally be reduced.

. The general trend of road to railways is to be adjusted, and the industrial structure needs to be adjusted

In addition, with the rapid development of high-speed rail, the application scope of railways is becoming more and more perfect. When the editor picked up the car not long ago, he found that his car was already specially designed for railway transportation. During my conversation with my colleague, I found that express delivery has also embarked on the "railway". In this way, the transportation industry dominated by road must be properly adjusted.

Only when the roads and railways are balanced can balance development be achieved. Simply put, it means that the railway uses greater transportation capacity, while the highways go through green connections, remote areas, etc. to solve more special situations. Only in this way can we work together and better promote social development.

returns to the topic, how can the shipping fee be "high"?

Since we have summarized the problem of sluggish shipping costs, the solution is actually out. First of all, we need to solve the overload problem. Only when all loading is fully loaded can the transportation environment return to the right track. I believe that most card friends will strongly support the strict investigation of overloading. After all, this is the cornerstone of stable freight rates.

In addition, we cannot solve the number of trucks and the number of cargo owners, but we believe that the relevant departments can solve the relevant matters of the Internet platform. And the relevant departments are also constantly starting to do this.

In the era of "Internet +", we use the platform to do big data, analyze and match national freight demand and capacity, and continuously publish capacity and freight index to drivers, and reasonably allocate to let card friends go to places where there are shortage of cars and relieve idle vehicles in places where there are many cars. I believe this can alleviate the problem of overcapacity.

In addition, if the relevant departments can join forces to subdivide goods, achieve unified pricing, or uniform price rating, this will also resolve many disputes or disputes about freight rates. Simply put, it is to supervise freight rates, vehicle sources, and supply through the Internet platform to achieve reasonable distribution, ensure equal interests in many aspects such as shippers, drivers, platforms, and countries, and achieve true healthy development.

Of course, the basis of all this is standard and compliant transportation, because the strict classification of trucks and different vehicles are the cornerstone of rationalization. What do you think?

● Postscript

In fact, there are still many details on the freight route, which are difficult to execute or difficult to consider. What we are talking about now is based on ideals. Therefore, it may take a long time for freight rates to rise, but we firmly believe that as long as we do this, the environment of the freight market will definitely improve. (Text/Yuan Sheng)
