Chapter 1254 The Biggest Trump Card

Li Ziwei quickly confirmed with the charter company that the business jet of No. 11 can take off at 8:30 tonight, the estimated flight time is about three and a half hours, and it will land at almost exactly twelve o'clock at night.

Due to the special relationship between Liu Xinxing's family, the Chuncheng Military District took great care of him. Not only did he arrange people to pick him up at the airport in advance, but he even arranged a residence in the military district guest house. The pick-up personnel went to the guest house to rest, and the military region had a car to escort them to their destination early the next morning.

The departure time of the plane was confirmed, so Li Mu did not change his original plan to meet Brother Liu and Master Lei, and went to Taobao Technology as scheduled.

As soon as they met, Li Mu discovered the difference between Senior Brother Liu and Master Lei. Senior Brother Liu was a little thinner than before, and his skin was much darker than before. His cheeks and lips were slightly chapped. The leader is fat and white, and he feels radiant all over.

As soon as Li Mu entered the door, he teased Senior Brother Liu: "Brother, I see this trend, if you run outside for a few months, I probably won't recognize you."

Brother Liu laughed, and said: "Running around all day, exposed to the wind and sun, certainly can't compare with old Lei. This guy sits in the office all day long, protected from wind and rain, and moisturised. Very much."

Leader Lei smiled and said: "Hey, let me tell you, Lao Liu, I actually really want to go out for a run. It's boring to stay in the office all day. The overall operation of our website is very stable now. How about I come with you Do you want to run about the logistics?"

Brother Liu said: "Okay, I will take you to the northwest in a few days. The wind over there is so strong that you can doubt your life."

Li Mu and the two sat down in the reception area of ​​Lei Jiaozhu's office. Lei Jiaozhu poured Li Mu a cup of black tea and said, "Mr. Li, you have been running around recently, so it's time to stay in Yanjing for a while. ? Lao Liu and I are waiting for you to sit in Yanjing and lead us to do something more awesome."

Li Mu said: "Both of you are awesome people. You don't have to wait for my call to do awesome things. You can do it yourself. Besides, I haven't been able to stay in Yanjing safely recently, so I have to do it tonight." Go southwest."

Brother Liu asked: "Going to the Southwest again? What are you busy with? I finally came back, and I didn't rest for a few days."

Li Mu said with a smile: "I'm busy with charity fund affairs, and I have to do a set of combo punches in conjunction with the film affairs, so I can't delay the rhythm."

After speaking, Li Mu sat upright and said, "Time is limited, let's talk about business, Senior Brother Liu, how is the situation of Taobao logistics now?"

"Very well." Brother Liu said: "The third batch of imported truck tractors we ordered from Germany and Sweden has been delivered for use. Now we have more than 200 imported tractors running non-stop all over the country, and there are 800 more imported trucks. With multiple high-end trailers, the efficiency of mainline land transportation is very high, and we have ordered a large number of Iveco medium-sized trucks and a large number of customized three-wheeled motorcycles. At present, the total number of our fleet has exceeded the sum of all private express companies.”

Li Mu asked in surprise: "More than two hundred tractors with more than eight hundred trailers? What kind of routine is this?"

Brother Liu said with a smile: "Drop-and-hook transportation is a new model abroad. It is not yet fully recognized by domestic laws, but we have applied to the transportation department. Because our corporate image in front of the government is very good, we are specially approved. Becoming a pilot enterprise of domestic drop-and-pull transportation also has a lot of credit for you, and now many policies are tilted towards us."

Li Mu asked curiously: "What kind of new model? Tell me about it."

Brother Liu said: "That is to say, a truck trailer is equipped with four or three trailers. The trailer stops but the trailer does not stop. Using this mode of land transportation can maximize the transport capacity. For example, Yanjing to Jinling For the circular transportation line, we have prepared two trailers in Yanjing, another in Jinling, and another in Quancheng in Qilu in the middle. The two trailers in Yanjing are A and B.

The one in Jinling is C, and the one in Quancheng is D. Our truck towed trailer A from Yanjing to Quancheng. At the same time, trailer B in Yanjing is also preparing for loading. Trailer C in Quancheng and trailer D in Jinling are also loaded. Yes, the trailer sends trailer A to Quancheng, and unhooks it directly. You don’t need to wait for unloading and loading. You can pull on trailer C prepared in Quancheng and go to Jinling non-stop. When you arrive in Jinling, unhook trailer B and put it on the prepared one in Jinling. Trailer D starts to return, and the return journey goes straight to Yanjing, throws off trailer D, hangs on Yanjing’s trailer B, and then repeats this cycle. "

Later, Senior Brother Liu concluded: "Simply put, it is to free the drivers from the process of waiting for loading and unloading, let them drive to a place, pick up the trailers they brought, and load the prepared trailers. Then you can continue on the road immediately, without even putting out the fire!"

Li Mu said in surprise: "This way the efficiency is too high, the vehicle is almost running continuously for 24 hours."

"That's right." Brother Liu said: "The price of the tractor is high, but the price of the trailer is low, and the tractor also bears the driver's salary, fuel fee, toll fee and maintenance insurance premium. The tractor must be driven to make money. Losing money, and what we are pursuing now is high efficiency, so the tractors cannot be stopped. Our current tractors are equipped with three drivers in shifts. Although the tractors do not stop, the drivers can take turns to rest without fatigue driving, and We also have shift drivers and driver rest points at the intermediate logistics station. If a driver is sick, tired or unwell, he can replace the shift driver at the intermediate logistics station, and then rest at the logistics station by himself, and wait for the next shift. Get back in the car and replace the shift driver."

Li Mu praised: "This mode is very good. We can let the car run high-intensity, but we can't let people run high-intensity. At any time, people's health and safety must be the first priority."

"It's natural." Senior Brother Liu said with a smile: "You were really wise when you insisted on buying imported tractors. We conducted a survey among the drivers and found that imported tractors have many advantages over domestic tractors. From the driver's point of view, the car is easier to drive, safer and more comfortable. The driver's seat and rest seat of imported tractors are very user-friendly, which is much better than that of domestic vehicles. More importantly, Yes, the fuel consumption of imported tractors is lower than that of domestic tractors, and the failure rate is lower. I heard that Scania’s tractors have no major repairs for millions of kilometers. This is not a big deal for our domestic tractors. , really can’t do it yet.”

Li Mu nodded and said, "There is still a long way to go for domestic heavy trucks. What we pursue in express delivery is not cost-effective, but stable and efficient. Therefore, imported tractors must be our best choice in the short term."

After speaking, Li Mu asked again: "How is the treatment of our driver?"

"That's great." Brother Liu said seriously: "Our driver's treatment is the best in the national transportation industry, no one. The most important thing is the high salary, our salary is generally more than 30% higher than other domestic logistics industries.”

Then, Senior Brother Liu said: "In addition to these, we also set up a few driver's homes in the distribution center cities. The company stepped in and leased a batch of commercial houses in a place close to the local distribution center, and uniformly purchased and purchased furniture and household appliances. These commercial houses are basically three-bedrooms, and we currently ensure that every driver can have his own room, singles can live by themselves, and married ones can live with their wives and children."

Li Mu nodded: "This is very good. In the future, we will not only need a stable management team, but also a stable grassroots team. We need to invest more in the grassroots team to make the grassroots team more stable and efficient. In the long run, we can It is a very cost-effective deal to save a lot of the company's cost of selecting and training newcomers."

"That's right!" Brother Liu said with a smile: "And our driver class has now set a safety award. Every month, the drivers in each class have a safety award of 800 yuan. If there is any accident in the month, the next month's salary Just pay 800 yuan more. If there is no accident again, continue to pay 800 yuan more. If it continues like this, if an accident occurs, depending on the severity of the accident, the penalty method of deducting a safety award for 1-12 months will be adopted. Now the driver is in order not to Let your own safety award be cut off, and drive very cautiously. In the past month, our fleet has not had a single traffic accident that we are solely responsible for or secondary responsibility for.”

Li Mu couldn't help giving a thumbs up: "Using this method to cultivate drivers' safety awareness is really very scientific and effective. Drivers driving on the road, especially large vehicles, are the absolute dominant group on the road. At this time, they must It is necessary to enhance their safety awareness, otherwise it will easily bring danger to other vehicles and pedestrians on the road. Your safety award method is really great. Let everyone take the initiative to raise safety awareness, abide by traffic rules, and actively avoid traffic accidents. Accidents are indeed a very clever management method!"

Speaking of this, Li Mu sighed: "It's still up to Senior Brother Liu to control this kind of big business with thousands of people offline. If I were really asked to manage such a huge logistics system, I'm afraid I'd be burnt out by now."

Anyone can come up with a plan, but the bigger the plan, the more capable people are needed to assist in the implementation, otherwise all plans can only be empty talk. Brother Liu was able to build such a huge offline warehousing and logistics system in JD.com in his previous life Standing up and running well, this proves that he has a very strong coping ability when implementing large-scale projects and super-large projects. This is indeed his own quality, which has now been confirmed by Taobao Logistics.

Brother Liu said with a modest smile at this time: "I just play the role of a transfer, mainly because the basic plan you set is already very solid. Our automatic sorting system makes our overall transportation efficiency better than that of other logistics companies." It has been improved too much, and what is more important is our information system, which is the logistics management system that you asked Fang Xudong to develop. It is more efficient and accurate, and can also monitor each express delivery in real time. More importantly, we can display this system to our customers at the front desk, so that they can also monitor the progress of logistics in real time. This is really our The biggest trump card!"
