Chapter 1507 Father and Son Conversation (Part 2)

As for the industry self-discipline and vicious competition that Xiao Qi mentioned, it is really, truly, and absolutely a huge chronic disease in all major industries in Huaguo. take off.

In short, let's assume.

Even if the road fees, postage fees, and labor costs are very expensive, if the logistics industry unifies the standards, everyone will honestly act in accordance with various rules and regulations, and do not drive too high, not overweight, not over the limit, and not fatigued. , unified regional transportation prices... etc., then all the costs will be superimposed on the various items they transport, such as the harvest year, the 0.05 yuan per catty cabbage thrown in the field in the eastern Shandong area that no one wants, and arrives in the capital It is 5 yuan a catty, and the price is frighteningly expensive.

The common people will naturally be dissatisfied with this, but since everyone's logistics costs are at this price, there is no way to reduce it, so they can only buy it.

Although it is cruel to say this, this is the price of fairness and justice.

And the common people are not helpless. When they feed back to the government through various channels, the government will not dare to allow such crazy price increases. This is the foundation of a society, and food, clothing and housing cannot be guaranteed. That is a huge contradiction.

But the official can't call the logistics company, say you are overloaded, you are over the limit, you can fight price wars to squeeze each other, firstly because it is impossible to do this because of the official status, and secondly because the logistics industry has strict regulations , No one dares to do this, and whoever does it will be cut off from this industry.

The official can't control the logistics company, but he can control the shameless profiteering of three barrels of oil, right? Can you manage the expressways under your own jurisdiction, and those "last mile" handling fees? Can you manage all kinds of unreasonable market charges such as entry fees, booth fees, barcode fees, etc.?

As long as they suppress the huge profits in these areas, the price will naturally be reduced a lot. Cabbage that costs 5 yuan a catty can be reduced to 2 yuan a catty no matter what. It would be best if it could even reach 1 yuan per catty. This should be affordable by the public, right?

In this way, both the public and the logistics industry will benefit, and everyone is happy. As for those industry organizations that have been stripped of huge profits, they only make less money, not no money.

But the facts of these years and later, are not the case.

The logistics companies one by one are not united and joined forces with the outside world. Instead, they started fighting in the nest.

If you want 1,000 for freight, I only need 800; if you are 5 tons overweight, I will be 10 tons overweight; if you use two drivers, I will use one driver... Well, before you need to attack the opponents in the game, you will break them by yourself first. Get up, in this way, how can the logistics problems be solved in the slightest?

As for the self-discipline of the industry...the so-called industry association in the logistics industry...with all due respect, what kind of thing is this? It never shows up when you need it, when there's something to show for it. He just stood in front of the microphone and spoke earnestly. He really didn't feel ashamed to drag them all out and beat them up.

Xiao Qi told Xiao Xu little by little, and Xiao Shu took out a notebook unconsciously, wrote it down carefully, and asked many questions from time to time.

This is also Xiao Xu's habit. He knows that it is not himself who has a strong outlook on the overall situation and the world. Even if he is powerful, it is nothing compared to his son.

So every time I discuss something with Xiao Qi. He will carefully write down the main points. Then use your own various channels to investigate and gain a deeper understanding of the car. Then combine these together and master them, and finally form your own concept and write it as an internal reference. Transfer it to the desks of the high-level officials.

Xiao Xu is not only asking about Huaguo's persistent logistics problems, but also about the logistics situation in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea that Xiao Qi knows. Only through various comparisons and observations of facts can he speak more comprehensively.

Things that are successful in foreign countries may not be successful in China. This is the principle of "Oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and those born in Huaibei are oranges"-what is the reason? Water and soil are different.

Similarly, logistics problems are not just a problem in the logistics industry. This can be extended to many industries, such as textiles, small commodities, foundries, etc., and so on. It is similar to malicious competition within the industry. On the contrary, it led to a bad end for everyone.

Xiao Xu obviously noticed this too. He was full of energy, and he regarded solving the logistics problem as a breakthrough point for the whole problem. If he could slowly propose a good plan for the whole event, then he might not be able to draw inferences from one instance, thereby reducing the public's anxiety. Burden and promote the better development of these industries.

Xiao Qi could only sigh in his heart for his father's naive thoughts.

How can a huge monopoly alliance of interests be easily changed?

It can be said that the country in the previous life did not work hard enough, but the effect of this rectification still failed to meet expectations. Until Xiao Qi was reincarnated and came back, he was still making progress with difficulty.

Relying on some literati opinions of my father, it is okay to talk about it, but the key is how to implement it from top to bottom, and implement it carefully-this involves a lot, and even Uncle Niu may not be able to grasp everything.

"No wonder you said that Xiaoyao Express and Xiaoyao Logistics can't reduce costs." Xiao Shu. Ji, who closed his notebook, sighed, "There are so many problems!"

"No matter how many problems there are, there must be someone who dares to break through." Xiao Qi smiled, "Even if I don't make much money for these two companies, I still want to set a benchmark for the entire industry and let them learn from me. .”

"Just brag to yourself!" Xiao Xu exposed his son mercilessly, "Just relying on your huge land logistics reserves worth trillions, your cost is much lower than others. Especially It’s because land prices have been rising in recent years. It’s simply impossible to use such a large amount of land for logistics purposes in the urban areas of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and second-tier cities! So the later you go, the stronger your advantage will be! And you can’t make money ?”

Xiao Qi smiled, "This is also your son, I planned it well in advance. If you rushed in in such a daze, wouldn't you be the same as those bumpkins? How can a powerful group company with hundreds of years come out?"

"Your experience is worth learning." Xiao Xu smiled and said, "Sharpening a knife is not a mistake in chopping firewood. Our ancestors have taught us the truth for thousands of years, but now many people still don't think of it... Speaking of it , but their failure is already doomed."

"It's not necessarily a complete failure. They still have a lot of ability. At least that kind of grassroots spirit is suitable for survival in the business world of Huaguo." Xiao Qi said: "But they have a strong personal ability to command the overall situation, that's right. But the problem is that the entire company has not formed a good operating system, so when their children and grandchildren take over the company, there will be a strong rebellious force, which is likely to backlash against the owner and cause the entire company to collapse."

Xiao Xu nodded slightly. What his son said has been proved by many examples since the reform and opening up in the past 20 or 30 years. Perhaps this is also one of the most important reasons why "wealth cannot last for three generations".

A heroic father does not necessarily guarantee that his son is a good man, and his son's being a good man cannot guarantee that his grandson is not a coward... If you want to maintain the excellence of your descendants for generations, that is not a family on earth, it should be in heaven, right?

What Xiao Xu didn't know was that Xiao Qi was backed up by actual examples.

NHL, FedEx and other foreign express companies are so powerful abroad, but when they come to Huaguo, they can't even overwhelm a few small private logistics express companies. Instead, they grow up step by step, and finally divide them up directly. The low-end customer market.

Even in the mid-to-high-end market, there is a strong competition from SF Express and ZJS. This evil foreign express, which is making waves abroad, really doesn't know where the mistake is, so it can only kneel down.

Xiao Xu was about to say something when suddenly the door was pushed open.

Chen Yulian's face appeared at the door, and she said impatiently: "I'm out for dinner! Really! I have to talk about business when I go home!"

"hehe!"

The father and son didn't dare to argue, so they could only chuckle, quickly followed the instructions, stood up, and walked out...
