Chapter 299: Express Cooperation Problems
According to the words of the JD model.
In the logistics sector, it should be "only the last mile".
In other words, a lot of external transportation is handed over to other companies, and they will only deliver the packages that wait for the goods to arrive at their warehousing and finally reach the customer.
Wang Qiang really thinks so.
After all, the establishment of the global purchasing department of Guoxing Trade is relatively short, if you want to establish a huge international transportation line, not to mention how much money is thrown in, it is not easy to operate the customs declaration, inspection and insurance in the United States, and when the package enters the domestic customs, there are still a lot of troubles.
International express delivery is not so easy to do.
First of all, the difference of the express delivery environment, different laws and regulations, humanities, customs, scientific and technological development and hardware facilities, etc. is a problem, secondly, the wide range of the express delivery system, the complexity of the express itself, coupled with the particularity of international express delivery, the operation is more difficult and more risky.
Finally, and most importantly, the informatization requirements of express delivery determine its advanced nature, and there are higher requirements for the provision of information, mobile phones and management, and the support of international information systems.
Obviously, Guoxing Trade does not have such a requirement for the time being.
Office area.
The negotiators have arrived.
Wang Qiang came over with a stack of documents, it was information about the location of each store, he was just looking at it in the office, and when he heard the post and telegraph coming, he hurriedly rushed over.
Lu Wei came up, "Give it to me." ”
"Okay, thank you. Wang Qiang handed him the document.
Over there, Lin Jun, the head of the department, was receiving the post and telegraph to discuss express cooperation.
There are still a few days left for the New Year, and these things must be negotiated.
After seeing Wang Qiang, Lin Jun stepped forward, "Vice President Wang, everyone is here, can you see it?"
Wang Qiang said, "What have you all talked about?"
Lin Jun said: "You came over before I had time to talk about it." ”
The two of them said as they walked inside.
In the reception room, Wang Qiang saw a few people sent by the post and telecommunications to talk about business, originally this kind of thing was to Guoxing Trade personally go to the post and telecommunications to talk, but first, this relatively large international express cooperation, on the other hand, Wang Qiang is still more famous in some systems, after all, he was named and praised by the chief designer, and the post and telecommunications were more or less face-saving.
What Director Sun.
What Director Ding.
They all have a bit of a status in the post and telecommunications system.
Wang Qiang stepped forward to shake hands with them and get acquainted, "Director Sun, Director Ding, I bother you to come all the way." ”
Director Sun suddenly said: "Don't bother, don't bother, we come here to talk about business, and we can talk about it, and everyone is happy, if we can't negotiate, then the business can't be benevolent, so we should get to know Vice President Wang, hehe." "He speaks more kindly, but he is a person who works in the system, and his speech is still level.
A post and telecommunications staff member who followed them said: "Vice President Wang, I heard that you want to cooperate with the international express business, the scale may be quite large?"
Lin Jun replied for him: "At present, it seems that it is very likely to be. ”
Wang Qiang didn't say much and nodded.
Whether the major global shopping stores can do it is still two words, I don't know how to say this kind of thing.
Director Sun continued: "Before talking about cooperation, I have one thing to affirm that our international express delivery is not completely alone, and the post and telecommunications are members of the Universal Postal Union, so if you really sign a contract for cooperation, it is very likely that many of your international express will be sent by foreign oil unions first, and then delivered to China before we deliver them to you." ”
Director Ding said: "You can rest assured that the express will definitely be delivered safely." ”
Wang Qiang knows a little bit about this matter.
The Universal Postal Union (UPU) is an intergovernmental international organization that negotiates international postal services, and its members often cooperate with each other.
Not every country's postal service has the ability to do international express delivery, but the market has this demand, what to do?
After listening, Wang Qiang didn't say anything, and asked: "I won't ask about the price or anything like that, I just want to ask, if we cooperate and the express customs declaration fails, what will you do?"
Lin Jun added, "The United States side." ”
Director Sun was stunned for a moment, "If your international express is from the United States, then we will cooperate with the United States Postal Service, and the customs declaration must be handed over to them to report, as for our side, at most do a role in accepting delivery to your hands, if you want to know how to operate the customs declaration failure, I may have to contact the United States Postal Service to give you an answer." ”
In other words, you can't control the failure of customs declaration?
This seems a bit of a hassle.
Wang Qiang stared at a few people from the post and telecommunications, frowned slightly, and said, "Then do you generally go through the port express or postal customs clearance?"
Port express mail is the most mainstream customs clearance method, which is characterized by the need to upload the recipient's ID card information and declare the quantity and value of the goods in detail, because these information need to be entered into the personal postal clearance system of the General Administration of Customs.
The postal customs clearance only needs to write a product name and the value of the package, many overseas parcels on the writing of a gift, and does not require the recipient's ID card information, belongs to the non-voluntary customs declaration, the customs will generally be based on the value of the parcel and the category of sampling the package that needs to be taxed, and then the X-ray machine picks out the package that conceals the declaration, which is much looser than the truthful and active declaration of postal customs, and the operation space is a little larger, so the probability of being taxed is often lower.
Guoxing traders have a small business, of course, they hope that postal customs clearance, and the port express mail needs to pay too much price.
Director Ding said directly: "We are generally port express, and postal customs clearance is too complicated and difficult to operate. ”
In fact, it is not responsible, but the postal service is state, and it is best to follow every process to declare customs.
Wang Qiang was silent.
Lin Jun said, "Vice President Wang?"
The others also looked at Wang Qiang.
Wang Qiang said vaguely: "Director Sun, Director Ding, I'll think about it again and give you an answer tomorrow, is it okay?"
Director Ding and Director Sun, of course, had no opinions, and got up to leave.
As soon as they left, Wang Qiang also immediately left the global purchasing department.
The people in the department looked at each other.
Lu Wei was puzzled: "What's wrong with the boss?"
"I don't know. Lin Jun didn't understand, "Even without talking about the price, the post and telecommunications said that they would give an answer tomorrow?"
A female copywriter said: "Vice President Wang may have other things." ”
Lin Jun didn't think much about it, "Well, it should be, let's go and go about our own things." ”
……
Office of the Deputy Director.
As soon as Wang Qiang returned inside, he shook his head slightly, and the reply given by the post and telecommunications was not very satisfied, not dissatisfied, but very dissatisfied.
Posts and telecommunications are not responsible for the failure of customs declaration, and need to be operated by the United States Postal Service.
It is also necessary to declare the port express, which is completely increasing the economic burden of Guoxing trade.
For example, he promised people a month, but the customs declaration failed, and it took a month and a half to get it, what will the customer think?
How to do it?
How can these problems be solved?
Wang Qiang feels that looking for domestic express delivery seems to be a bit unreliable, today's post and telecommunications is not the post that was sent to the global express delivery has the strength to do its own post, if the customs declaration failure and postal customs clearance can not be operated, it is not interesting to find.
Unless...... Looking for a courier company that can solve these problems?
But where to find it?
After thinking about it, Wang Qiang picked up the phone and made a call.
