At about 10 a.m. on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Mr. Wei, who lives in the "Xuhui 26 Block" community in Shunyi District, Beijing, received a box of Coke. After a while, Coke was put on the table and dressed up for the festive reunion.
Express delivery records show that the starting time of the delivery process of this box of Coke is the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year
In the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, many batches of New Year's goods supplied by merchants were transported to the Cainiao Express Tianjin Wuqing warehouse. As a first-class distribution center, a large number of parcels start their "expedition" from here.
On February 8, Cainiao Express Tianjin Wu cleared the warehouse, and the picker was picking the goods.

Following the instructions, the reporter got into a truck. After 2 hours, the truck arrived at the Cainiao Express Beijing Shunyi Secondary Distribution Center. Qi Haijiao, the person in charge of the center, told reporters that the package has to go through the process of unsealing, unloading, sorting, and sweeping here, and the whole process is also less than 2 hours.
The night was still deep, but the truck drivers waited to deliver their parcels. Before dawn, they had to deliver the packages to Cainiao Express's multiple distribution sites in Beijing. The driver, Chen Qiang, told reporters that the process consumes a minimum of 10 minutes, and the longest will not exceed one and a half hours.
In the interlocking process, the delivery time of the package is greatly reduced.
After the consumer places an order, we will take no more than 12 hours to complete the whole process from the delivery source to the terminal, which is the meaning of Cainiao Express's 'half-day delivery'. Qi Haijiao introduced that the "half-day delivery" of rookie express has been rolled out in 20 cities across the country such as Beijing and Shanghai.

Technology afterburner. Cainiao Express distribution centers at all levels are equipped with intelligent sorting systems, which intelligently sort packages to different areas by scanning the barcodes on the package label, so that pickers can directly carry out fine sorting and loading.
Strengthen management. At least one-third of the employees at all levels of Cainiao Express are left behind to cope with the distribution and distribution needs during the Spring Festival. Units at all levels have improved the coordination mechanism horizontally to facilitate the mutual deployment of manpower.
Sufficient capacity. The driver on duty is on call at any time during the Chinese New Year, and the truck reserve is also guaranteed.
Looking at the whole country, many express companies have taken a variety of measures to speed up the annual goods. SF Express has developed differentiated transportation modes to improve the timeliness and stability of seafood delivery; Jingdong Logistics opened a full cargo plane for beef and mutton in Ningxia, and Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shandong and other provinces achieved next-day delivery; Yunda optimizes and upgrades the intelligent system to improve the efficiency and ...... of delivery

At about 8 o'clock in the morning on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Chunhui, a left-behind delivery man at the Beijing Nanfaxin Station of Cainiao Express, received dozens of packages to be delivered. These packages all came from Cainiao Express Tianjin Wu Clearance in the early morning of the same day, including Mr. Wei's Coke.
Back in time to Chinese New Year's Eve. For the reunion on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Mr. Wei is preparing a big dinner. After all the calculations, he still forgot to buy drinks in advance.
Mr. Wei picked up his phone and placed an order. It was 10:30 p.m., less than 12 hours before he received the goods the next day. (Reporter Wei Hongyi).
