Qilu.com Lightning News, February 13 When the flash news reporter knocked on the door of Li Zhuo's office for the first time, the voices in the office came and went, not chatting, but everyone was holding a mobile phone and playing. is busy playing **" is Li Zhuo's first impression on reporters, and "* is particularly much" is the deepest impression of Lightning News reporters on Li Zhuo.
Li Zhuo is a sea-rail intermodal service specialist of Shandong Port Logistics Group Xi'an Company, where he works in the Xi'an International Port Area, which is more than 1,000 kilometers away from Qingdao Port in Shandong. It is known as China's first international dry port that is not along the river, along the coast, or along the border. Li Zhuo is responsible for the sea-rail intermodal transport business, which makes the railway and sea transport seamless, opening a "window" to the world for Xi'an, and the ringing of his office is to communicate the journey of goods to sea. Towards the end of the year, international logistics ushered in the peak of transportation, and more than 100 boxes of goods had to flow from Li Zhuo's hands to Qingdao every day.
It is possible to communicate with each link such as goods sending, in transit, and collecting ports, or some customers want to inquire **, and there will be all kinds of **. Li Zhuo pulled his mobile phone and told reporters: "In addition to **, there are also more WeChat, and you will see a red phone every morning, and it is approaching the end of the year, so it will be busy in the past two days." ”
In the interval between conversations, Li Zhuo suddenly received **, and the voice on the other side was a little urgent. A shipper in Xi'an received a batch of foreign orders for automobile tires, but due to a large number of shipments before the Spring Festival holiday, the company worked overtime to produce, and the order was completed two days ago, and there were less than 4 days left before the departure time. Once the shipping schedule is not met, the company will face the risk of being dumped, not only suffering economic losses, but also losing the hard-won market share. According to the usual, long-distance cargo transportation generally reserves 10 days from shipment to the collection port, and to ensure that this batch of goods on the ship, there is less than 4 days left for Li Zhuo, and it is a big challenge to complete the steps of train assembly, shipment, and customs clearance.
Shandong is the most convenient outlet to the sea in the Yellow River Basin, and Xi'an is the most important logistics hub in Northwest China. To this end, Shandong and Shaanxi have jointly built a large land-sea combined transport channel from Xi'an to Qingdao, which was a train every week at the beginning of the line, and now, it has grown to a train every one to two days. And the train that Li Zhuo wants to coordinate has already assembled the goods and is waiting to depart. In order to ensure the smooth delivery of foreign trade orders, the staff of Xi'an Central Station communicated and coordinated with multiple departments to hang two additional car plates on the train for this batch of expedited goods under the condition of ensuring safe transportation.
Under the support of various parties, the sea-rail intermodal train loaded with 52 containers set off for Qingdao Port in Shandong that night. Three days later, the wharf staff thousands of miles away sent back the news that the two containers from Xi'an had completed the loading operation. "That's reassuring, and I hope everything goes well during the Chinese New Year! Li Zhuo told reporters.
Qingdao Port is not the closest seaport to Xi'an, but 60% of Xi'an's exports are through Qingdao. To be favored by customers, it is inseparable from the integration of Shandong port resources and the multiple superposition of supporting preferential policies, such as BYD, Geely and other more and more local leading enterprises choose to go to sea from Qingdao Port. Not only Xi'an, Qingdao Port, as the largest international port in the north, has now opened 225 international routes in Europe, North America and other regions, and has become an important outlet to the sea in Zhengzhou, Xi'an, Lanzhou, Xinjiang and other inland areas.
