The live broadcast column of "ConMet Face to Face" has been on the air for a whole year, from the initial broadcast to chat with cardholders, chatting about the past and present life of freight logistics and truck drivers, and then to analyzing the reasons for the current low freight rates with cardholders, hoping to help cardholders get out of the predicament, whether it is a guest or a host, just like an old friend of cardholders, always caring about our cardholders, and constantly making suggestions for cardholders.
In the just-concluded "ConMet Face to Face" - 2023 annual event inventory, this live broadcast not only invited Mr. Dong, the sales director of ConMet, but also invited the Internet celebrity "Su G Lao Wang", who has hundreds of thousands of fans on the short ** platform, and Han Rui, the editor-in-chief of the truck E family.
The three celebrities and the cardholders in the live broadcast room reviewed the current situation of freight in 2023, the latest regulations and policies, and the future development trend and trend of the entire industry.
The involution of the industry is becoming more and more seriousGas cars have become a lifesaver for cardholders
This year's freight ** can not be described as bleak, "lying in the nest" has become the status quo of cardholders in the first half of the year, the profits of cardholders are extremely meager, and the car can only meet the needs of food and clothing to pay loans, most of the time cardholders are going to make money, and they have to lose money on the return trip, and some cardholders who have paid off the car loan even chose not to get out of the car.
As for why some cardholders choose to "lie in the nest", the three anchors also calculated an account for the cardholders in the live broadcast room on the spot, excluding basic expenses such as fuel costs and high-speed fees, cardholders can still earn about 20,000 yuan per month at this stage, but this does not calculate their wages and vehicle insurance and other losses, if they are all counted, cardholders do not seem to have earned much from working for others, which can understand why some cardholders choose to lie flat.
As the three anchors talked about in the live broadcast, the freight rate has not stopped from ten years ago all the way to the present, and don't expect the freight to be ** in a short period of time, rather than complaining about the freight, it is better to quickly find new products to deal with the market downturn.
In fact, it is true that in the second half of the year, the sudden explosion of LNG gas vehicles made cardholders regain confidence, compared with fuel vehicles, the energy consumption cost of gas vehicles is lower, and the difference of about one yuan per kilometer can be achieved. For the same transportation of 1,000 kilometers, gas vehicles can earn 1,000 yuan more than fuel vehicles, and gas vehicles can earn 200,000 more yuan a year according to 200,000 kilometers.
At the scene, the editor-in-chief Han and the director of Dong couldn't help but sigh, no wonder now car companies have launched high-end heavy trucks equipped with LNG power, so calculated that if the express tractor running three or four hundred thousand a year uses LNG power, it will greatly increase corporate profits.
By inviting guests from different fields to see things from different perspectives, this not only has a collision of perspectives, but also helps cardholders understand things more thoroughly through different perspectives and help cardholders make decisions.
The shuffle has just begunAll for the healthy development of the industry
It is understood that this year, many places have paid more attention to overloading, overrun and other issues, and relevant regulations have been introduced, especially in many areas in the south have been upgraded from the previous activity governance to normalized governance.
Card friend Wang stood in the point of view of our tens of millions of card friends and said the industry insider over the years, many people have always believed that the owner is the dominant overload problem, and the card friend is the most direct victim of the overload chaos. In fact, as the cardholder Wang said, a very small number of our cardholders will take the lead in catering to the needs of shippers for selfish interests and the so-called stable relationship, which has led to repeated overloads.
Especially with 17The semi-trailer represented by the 5-meter large plate car, as a special vehicle, was originally used for large-scale transportation, but was abused in general cargo transportation, which is why the country has introduced relevant policies to control large plate vehicles in recent years.
In general, now the entire logistics industry has just entered the reshuffle stage, after years of "savage growth", it is time to standardize the entire industry, which will not only allow the entire industry to continue to develop, but also will solve the problem of low freight and fierce competition in one fell swoop.
Just like Director Dong and Editor-in-Chief Han said, the right thing is often very difficult to practice, but you can't give up because of difficulties, insist on doing the right thing to make everything better, what we card friends have to do is to establish the correct concept of car maintenance and car use, actively embrace change, and achieve cost reduction and efficiency increase through more high-quality products.
In fact, ConMet has long been committed to helping the majority of domestic cardholders reduce costs and increase efficiency through excellent products and overall solutions, and now ConMet has achieved a multi-platform full matrix product line, which not only has all kinds of heavy truck wheel end products that we are very familiar with, but also related products such as light and medium trucks, and even as early as many years ago, ConMet has begun to launch trailer wheel end products.
The long life and maintenance-free characteristics of its products can not only help cardholders reduce the number of maintenance times, improve vehicle attendance, but also reduce maintenance costs in an all-round way, so that our cardholders can save time, money and worry when driving.
New energy products have become the general trendHybrid products are not suitable for all cardholders
Every time ConMet livestreams, the cardholders are keen to discuss the future of the industry, and when interacting with the cardholders, the three guests also talked about the future development trend of the truck industry.
With the steady advancement of the dual carbon strategy, new energy commercial vehicles have become the general trend, and it can be seen from the discussion of cardholders in the live broadcast room that cardholders were not interested in new energy at first, but with the restriction of the right of way and the prohibition of fuel vehicles from entering the factory for loading by major production and manufacturing enterprises, cardholders are gradually trying to understand new energy models, and even some cardholders are ready to start with new energy commercial vehicles.
In this regard, Director Dong said that the introduction of relevant favorable policies and the increasingly mature new energy technology, the rapid popularization of new energy products is not unexpected, because the market has completed the initial and most difficult user education stage, the future is not only new energy products are becoming more and more advanced, but also there will be more products to match different working conditions.
In Wang's view, although the new energy hybrid heavy truck can be hung with a green card, its excessive weight is not able to meet the needs of all users, especially in the subdivisions of general cargo and resource-based transportation that need to run fast.
Although the product cannot satisfy all users, its directionality does not deviate significantly. Han editor-in-chief of the truck E family believes that although the new energy hybrid heavy truck is not suitable for all working conditions, it also reflects that commercial vehicle companies have been trying to solve the pain points of long-distance logistics transportation, such as the southwest mountainous area with many slopes and express transportation of vehicle weight requirements, the advantages of hybrid heavy trucks are very obvious, if the vehicle is relatively reasonable, the future prospects are broad.
Overall, whether it is a new energy commercial vehicle or an autonomous driving vehicle, it will become a reality in the near future, and the three anchors also gave very pertinent advice to the majority of cardholders, that is, to actively embrace change, and only by keeping pace with the times can we not be overwhelmed by the tide of the times.
Finally, ConMet Face to Face – 2023 Annual Event Inventory ended perfectly in round after round of benefits, from the first to the twelfth issue, ConMet Face to Face is sometimes the pistachio of cardholders, bringing joy and laughter to everyoneSometimes like the friends of the cardholders, they speak out for the hardships of our cardholders;Sometimes it becomes a knowledge base for cardholders, so that we cardholders always understand the industry trends. I believe that as long as you follow the column, you will sincerely hope that "ConMet Face to Face" can be updated for a long time. ConMet will also do its best to do better and better, so that cardholders will always have a soulmate with them on their lonely journey, and they will not feel lonely no matter how long the road is.
