Since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has visited Jiangsu twice in 2014 and 2017, and put forward a series of important instructions for Jiangsu, such as "striving to shoulder the mission of exploring the way for the development of the whole country" and "building a new Jiangsu with a strong economy, rich people, beautiful environment and high degree of social civilization", which provides a fundamental guide for Jiangsu's development.

On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the founding of New China, the reporters went to Nanjing, Zhenjiang, and Xuzhou to pay a return visit to General Secretary Xi Jinping's inspection sites one by one, and today launched a series of reports "Magnificent 70 Years of Struggle in the New Era revisiting the entrustment to see the changes", which reflects in an all-round, multi-angle and multi-level manner that all localities have kept in mind the general secretary's entrustment and promoted the new achievements and new changes in the construction of a "strong, rich, beautiful and high" new Jiangsu.

【General Secretary Footprint Playback】 At 4:30 p.m. on December 13, 2014, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to Huilong Yitong International Logistics Co., Ltd. in Zhenjiang High-tech Zone to inspect. Since 2003, Huilong Yitong has focused on the development of logistics e-commerce and built an e-commerce platform for centralized distribution of goods transportation. Shi Wenjin, chairman of the company, demonstrated the four-dimensional operation structure of the platform to the general secretary, and the general secretary nodded while listening, he said: "This model is the first time I have seen it, which is very good." The general secretary appreciates the innovative spirit of enterprises and hopes that they will continue to work hard to constantly seek new business opportunities and develop new business models.

Bearing in mind the entrustment of the general secretary, Huilong Yitong is keen on innovation, building a top logistics e-commerce platform in the field of domestic means of production, and breaking a new path for the transformation and upgrading of the traditional logistics industry.

On September 16, following the footsteps of the general secretary, the reporter returned to Huilong Yitong to decode the moving changes that have taken place here for more than 4 years.

Car-free and ship-free still leads the logistics revolution

In front of the reporter is a report card of innovators.

From 2014 to 2019, the number of Huilong Yitong members increased from 10,000 to 2.9 million, the number of platform orders increased from 150,000 to 64.88 million, the freight volume increased from 8.32 million tons to 3.5 billion tons, and the annual transaction volume increased from 90 million yuan to 222.2 billion yuan.

From more than 200 times to more than 2,000 times, such a growth rate is staggering. And "2019" is only the number of the first 8 months.

"I started a business in Huizhou, and then went to Longmen Village in Zhenjiang High-tech Zone to concentrate on logistics, which got its name from 'Huilong Yitong'." Shi Wenjin, chairman of Huilong Yitong International Logistics Co., Ltd., said with emotion that the "dragon" of "Huilong" really took off after General Secretary Xi Jinping came to the company to inspect.

Car-free and ship-free transportation is the iconic concept of Huilong Yitong leading the revolution in the logistics industry. Without a car, without a ship, how to do logistics? Borrow divine power from "Internet +"! Shi Wenjin frankly said that Huilong Yitong is to be Alibaba in the field of means of production. In 2013, they pioneered the e-commerce model of in-market transaction of car-free and shipless cargo transportation in China, that is, the later network freight mode was officially launched. In August 2016, the Ministry of Transport carried out a pilot project of car-free carriers nationwide with reference to the Huilong Yitong car-free carrier model.

This model, in fact, is not complicated. Huilong Yitong built a national platform, integrating cargo owners, car owners, and ship owners, and using a mobile phone app, you can let the goods waiting for the car and the car waiting for the goods release information at any time, and find the nearest to each other at the fastest speed. As for freight payment and accident claims, they are uniformly handed over to the platform for processing. Under the mediation of Huilong Yitong, a third-party, the logistics cost of production enterprises was reduced by 30%, while the return freight revenue of transportation enterprises increased by 70% due to the reduction of empty driving rate. While spending less money and making more money, both sides have more and more demand for the platform. At present, the freight volume of Huilong Yitong platform accounts for about 5% of the national freight volume.

"The general secretary asked me at that time how many members the platform had, and I replied, 'There are only 10,000 at present.'" Shi Wenjin proudly told reporters that Huilong Yitong has 2.9 million member units today, covering 31 provinces, autonomous regions and cities. Among them, 600,000 cargo owners, 2.3 million owners and ship owners.

"The car-free and shipless network transportation platform is the first business model pioneered by Huilong Yitong in China. During the inspection, the general secretary affirmed the innovative spirit of the enterprise and encouraged us to continuously develop new business models. Xu Zhaohui, financial director of Huilong Yitong, believes that it is continuous innovation that enables Huilong Yitong to lead the transformation and upgrading of the domestic logistics industry.

Build the country's only water-rail multimodal transport trading platform; Independent research and development of Beidou terminal, real-time grasp of the "where" of the car and ship... Yu Peichang, vice chairman and operation director of Huilong Yitong, introduced that in the fields of supply forecasting and scheduling intelligent pairing, the company has obtained 285 patents, soft books, trademarks and other achievements, and has been nominated for the first prize of national scientific and technological progress.

The capital markets applaud innovators. In 2016, CCB International, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CCB, invested in Huilong Yitong with a market value of 10 billion yuan. On May 8 this year, Huilong Yitong signed a contract with CICC at a valuation of 12 billion yuan. Capital help, pull Huilong easy to fission development. In the past four years, Huilong Yitong's operating income and profit have increased by an average of 5 times per year.

"A net of heaven and earth" tied up 2.9 million members

At 9 p.m. on September 17, a map of the Huilong Yitong platform showed that truck driver Zhao Baorun had just arrived at the yichuan county highway in Luoyang City. He ran back and forth between Henan and Xinjiang this time, and pulled the goods back and forth, removing the fuel and tolls, and made a net profit of 4,000 yuan.

"I couldn't find the goods on the way back before, and it was commonplace. The longest time, waiting for the goods for three or four days. Now, go on the platform to find goods, simple!" Zhao Baorun said that he only needs to enter the route to be taken, the load capacity of the truck, and in a few minutes he can find the source of goods in the surrounding area, and go directly to the factory to pull it. After unloading at the destination, the platform quickly settles the freight.

In the Huilong Yitong interview, the reporter heard such a sentence: "Heaven and earth integrate a network, information exchange a cloud, freight transactions a single system, the whole process of service integration, go all over the world a card." Zhao Baorun did not have to run an empty car on his return trip, thanks to this sentence.

Opening "a network" and raising "a cloud", Huilong Yitong has become an integrator of the bulk commodity industry chain, relying on informationization and intelligent means to integrate "multi-small and scattered" logistics enterprises and improve the degree of industry organization.

Lu Xuchuan, head of freight of Henan Oriental Hope Co., Ltd., told reporters that the company sends dozens of truckloads of goods to other places every day, and the information of cargo owners and drivers was asymmetrical before, and finding a car was like "finding a needle in a haystack". Now you can find a driver in 5-10 minutes, saving more than 20,000 yuan per day in freight. Jia Xianyu, head of Hebei Huazhi Pipe Co., Ltd., believes that the network freight platform of Huilong Yitong makes the production and sales process of enterprises more stable and controllable, "Jinghua Pipe takes five or six million tons of goods from the platform a year, and there is no need to worry about finding a car!"

"A net of heaven and earth" relies on services to tie up 2.9 million cargo owners, car owners and ship owners. Huilong Yitong introduced banking and insurance, and launched online settlement, online insurance and online loans. Each business is insured from the designated insurance company, and if the carrier loses less than 7,000 yuan, it can directly take a photo and upload the compensation; If the amount of loss is large, it is forecasted online to the insurance company, and the territorial claims adjuster surveys the insurance.

Online is inseparable from offline, and "Skynet" is inseparable from "Ground Network". Huilong Yitong has developed 2812 local network units across the country, providing offline services for both sides of the freight and helping drivers coordinate and resolve disputes that occur during transportation. Wu Gangjun, president of the Hengyang Logistics Association, said that the association became a ground network unit of Huilong Yitong last year, providing services for platform vehicles entering Hengyang, selling lubricants and vehicle urea to drivers at a preferential price of 20%-30%, and helping foreign drivers recover 150,000 yuan in freight.

Build a dream factory for entrepreneurship and innovation

Benefiting thousands of people, opening up employment channels for them and building a stage for entrepreneurship is the responsibility and mission of Huilong Yitong to develop and benefit the people. Over the past 4 years, relying on the Huilong Yitong platform, 30,000 people across the country have found jobs, and some of them have successfully started their own businesses as bosses.

Wang Cai, a native of Gansu, did not expect that his fate would change because of the distant Huilong Yitong. He has opened a small logistics park in Yumen City, Gansu Province, for more than a decade, often falling into disputes between the two sides of the freight, and the company almost closes its doors when it is most difficult. 5 years ago, after he joined Huilong Yitong, his back was against a big tree, and he came to run from time to time. "I now have more than 200 supply companies, 13,000 drivers, and 20 or 30 cars a day in the park during the peak season, driving supermarkets and catering consumption." Last year, he earned more than 3 million yuan.

Big platforms benefit entrepreneurs. Huilong Yitong launches a variety of car purchase services according to the needs of members to buy, use cars, repair cars and change cars. In 2017, Zhu Ruihua, a native of Jiangxi Ruijin, borrowed 600,000 yuan and bought two tractors through the Huilong Yitong platform "Huiche Loan". "The down payment is only 30%, and the interest rate is half that of the car manufacturer." He earns 10,000 yuan a month and feels very happy.

"We are building a new generation of commodity intelligent distribution platform, which is an incubator for mass entrepreneurship and innovation. As long as you master the end users of more than 6,000 tons of petrochemical products per year, Huilong Yitong can help you realize your entrepreneurial dream. For this dream, Shi Wenjin was extremely obsessed. The Huilong platform will register companies, file accounts and tax returns on behalf of entrepreneurs, and unify collection, transportation, storage and loan collection. The platform and the bank jointly launch financial products, the buyer only needs to pay 20% of the purchase price to the seller's account, the bank pays 80% of the loan online in seconds, and the commodity pledge and transportation supervision are responsible for the platform.

Shi Wenjin, who was born in the military, injected the fighting spirit into the genes of Huilong Yitong. "We will certainly live up to the expectations of the general secretary and make new contributions to the development of China's Internet logistics industry." He did not change his ambition and threw out a new goal: after 3 years, the revenue rushed to 200 billion yuan, and after 5 years, it exceeded 1 trillion yuan!

May Huilong Yitong, the "Jiangsu Dragon" of Internet logistics, soar to the sky and create brilliance again.
