Chapter 223 Logistics
Wang Qiang thought for a while and found that the time to enter the logistics industry now seems to have missed the best time. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The largest domestic logistics companies have been established, and they are also developing at a high speed.
If Chen Haitao enters the market now, when his logistics company develops, the national logistics market may have already been carved up, and there is no room for Chen Haitao's logistics company to survive.
"Uncle, now there are many logistics companies in the country, it is more difficult to start from scratch, it is best to buy a logistics company as a springboard, and wait until it develops, and then fight against other logistics companies" Wang Qiang thought about it and told his uncle Chen Haipeng the truth.
"Are there a lot of logistics companies now?" asked Chen Haitao.
Chen Haitao, as a traditional person, rarely uses express delivery, and does not know much about this industry, if it were not for the fact that the foreign trade business with Russia is becoming more and more difficult to do, Wang Qiang said this business before, Chen Haitao would not have thought of doing this at all.
"There are more," Wang Qiang said: "There should be more than a dozen logistics companies now, but I don't know how many will be able to stick to it in the end."
Hearing Wang Qiang say that there are more than a dozen logistics companies competing together, Chen Haipeng breathed a sigh of relief and said: "More than a dozen? That's not much, Central China is so big, more than a dozen logistics companies, even dozens are estimated to be able to accommodate it."
Wang Qiang listened to his uncle Chen Haitao's words and knew that his uncle had not realized the expansion of the logistics industry, and he might regard the logistics that Wang Qiang said as a small logistics company between cities in the province.
"Uncle, those you are talking about are just small logistics companies, and that kind of company can be opened for only a few million. The logistics company I am talking about is a network all over the country, which can be sent to any place in China," Wang Qiang said with a wry smile.
Chen Haitao thought for a while and asked Wang Qiang: "Now Huaguo has such a powerful logistics company? I remember that only Huaguo Post can do what you said, right?"
Wang Qiang was asked by his uncle Chen Haitao, and he suddenly remembered that the current Huaguo, it seems that none of the top ten logistics companies in the previous generation have the ability to send express delivery to all parts of the country, and can only go to some provincial capitals at most. However, after more than ten years, it is almost the same.
"Not now, but soon"
Wang Qiang had no choice but to talk about him left and right.
Chen Haitao listened to Wang Qiang's words but was a little unconvinced, and said: "Isn't that robbing the job of Huaguo Post, they can do it over the central enterprises?"
Wang Qiang smiled and said: "Uncle, it is true that Huaguo Post is a central enterprise, but its logistics service is not good. I don't know if you use Guanghua Post, uncle?"
"I've used it, I've received a credit card once," Chen Haitao thought for a while and said.
"What do you think of Huaguo Post's service?" asked Wang Qiang with a smile.
"Not very good" Chen Haitao replied: "The speed is slow, the fee is high, and the attitude is also poor"
Chen Haitao used three words to accurately summarize the service quality of Huaguo Post.
"Now is the era of market economy, logistics to put it bluntly is to spend money to buy services, if other logistics companies are cheap, good service attitude, there are certainly not many people willing to use Huaguo Post.
As the largest and most extensive logistics unit in China, Huaguo Post is not active and fast because of its attributes as a central enterprise, which is unbearable for people in a hurry.
Because the employees of Huaguo Post are business establishments, they are also consciously superior to customers, and their service attitude is not good.
The quality of these services of Huaguo Post just makes Huaguo's logistics market have a lot of room to operate"
Chen Haitao saw Wang Qiang talking eloquently, so he simply parked the car on the side of the road and said, "Tell me more specifically."
"Uncle, if there is a logistics company now, the delivery speed is faster than Huaguo Post, and the fee is cheaper, and it can even be delivered directly to your door, will you choose this logistics company to conduct business?" Wang Qiang asked.
Chen Haitao glanced at Wang Qiang angrily and said, "You're not talking nonsense." I'm sure to choose a logistics company that is fast and cheap, and can also deliver to your door."
"That's it," Wang Qiang said.
Chen Haitao glanced at Wang Qiang suspiciously, and said, "Is there a logistics company like you said?"
"Uncle, don't you know that my uncle has shares in Ali Company. Ali.com can buy goods from all over the country, and today you can go back and buy a thing directly on Ali.com, which needs to be mailed back from the special zone city. You can choose Huaguo Post and Homeopathic Express respectively to see which one arrives faster"
"Homeopathic Express is the kind of logistics company you are talking about?" asked Chen Haitao.
"Yes, homeopathic express is the logistics company I said, one of them" Wang Qiang said: "But homeopathic express should only be delivered to Anxi or Chencang, you had better write the address of both packages to Anxi, so that you can check out the logistics company faster"
"Okay, I know" Chen Haitao restarted the car and drove towards Chenjiagou. In the car, Chen Haitao continued: "I'll give it a try when I go back and see what you said about homeopathic express?"
"You try the effect of homeopathic express first, let's talk about other things," Wang Qiang said.
"Don't, you haven't said I'm going to do logistics, what about it?" Chen Haitao hurriedly said.
"I don't know how much money you want to invest, uncle?"
Wang Qiang asked rhetorically.
"Is there any difference?" Chen Haitao asked.
"Of course there is, if you only go around the province, a few million will do. If you want to make it like homeopathic express, you need at least billions," Wang Qiang said.
"So many!" Chen Haitao said in surprise.
Hearing his uncle Chen Haitao's surprised tone, Wang Qiang was slightly happy. This shows that his uncle Chen Haitao does not plan to make a small fuss, and his goal is to target the whole country.
"Is this a lot?" Wang Qiang said: "Uncle, don't you know that a few years ago, Homeopathic Express had already leased airplanes to run logistics. You say, how much does it cost to make a stall that big?"
"That's a lot of money," Chen Haitao nodded and said.
Seeing that his uncle Chen Haitao was bluffed by himself, Wang Qiang smiled secretly.
In fact, the price of homeopathic express leasing aircraft was not very high.
In 03, SARS was raging and air freight rates plummeted. The CEO of Homeopathic Express saw the business opportunities and signed a contract with Yangzijiang Air Transport, leasing only five cargo planes in Yangzijiang in one go, three of which were dedicated to carrying his own company's business.
"Although homeopathic express is fast, the price is not cheap," Wang Qiang said: "But homeopathic express is recognized by China as the fastest logistics company to deliver express."
"What about other logistics companies," Chen Haipeng asked.
Wang Qiang thought for a while and said: "Homeopathic Express is the best reputation in the industry, there is no one. Other logistics companies are almost the same, and they haven't started the grade yet, but it is estimated that there will be a front and a back in the future."
