On October 26th, Li Yan, Deputy General Manager of Shenzhen Shanshan Port Operation Co., Ltd., and his delegation visited Changjiu Logistics on behalf of Xiaomo International Port. Mr. Lu Yuliang and Mr. Meng Qingwen, Vice Presidents of Changjiu Logistics, as well as the marketing and international business teams, gave a warm reception.

Mr. Lu Yuliang and Mr. Meng Qingwen extended a warm welcome to the guests and provided an insightful introduction to the development history, core business, and corporate culture of Changjiu Logistics. Currently, our company has three major business segments: vehicle business, international business, and new energy business. The demand for automobile exports is experiencing an unprecedented surge, and marine transportation serves as our most crucial avenue for exporting vehicles. Keenly aware of this, Changjiu Logistics made a strategic move in 2020 by acquiring the ocean-going ro-ro ship “Jiuyang Fortune” to strengthen our presence in international marine transportation. Through strong partnerships, we have secured a substantial amount of marine transportation capacity, enabling us to continuously enhance our domestic trade and international water transportation services. Our primary focus is on developing a robust multimodal transportation system. Looking ahead, we are committed to further bolstering our capabilities through collaborations and other proactive measures. Changjiu Logistics is thrilled to unveil its ambitious plans for the future, which include a concerted effort to enhance our capacity and expand our portfolio of port resources. By combining our own endeavors with strategic partnerships, we are dedicated to achieving even greater heights of success.
Mr. Li Yan, Deputy General Manager of Shenzhen-Shenzhen Port Operation Company, expressed his thanks for the reception of Changjiu Logistics and gave a detailed introduction of Xiaomo International Port, which is subordinate to Shenzhen Port Group Co., Ltd., the only world-class port industry group in Shenzhen, and is committed to building a core port for the development of the east wing of Shenzhen Port and a gateway port for the eastern part of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, South China’s foreign trade automobile Ro-Ro hub port, function positioning to ro-ro terminal and container transportation, building a new logistics channel radiating the country, and access to the world. In terms of location, Shenzhen-Shantou Special Cooperation Zone is located at the eastern end of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, with a land area of 460 square kilometres, 100 kilometres away from Shenzhen. It aims to build a new generation of world-class automobile cities and construct an automobile industry ecological chain of “production, transportation, and trade”. Xiaomo International Port is about 55 nautical miles away from Yantian Port, about 68 nautical miles away from the Hong Kong port area, and 8 nautical miles away from the international main channel of the Pacific Ocean. It covers the regions of Guangdong, Guangxi, Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei, and Fujian with the direct hinterland of Guangdong East. After extensive and in-depth exchanges and discussions, both sides agreed that there is a huge space for cooperation in international maritime transportation. In September, China’s automobile exports were 444,000 units, up 9% sequentially and 47.7% year-on-year. Monthly exports have been more than 400,000 units for several consecutive months, and there is an urgent demand for the automobile export market. We hope that both sides can take this meeting as a starting point, join hands for a win-win situation, and help develop the international market for national brand automobiles.

During the interview, the reporter mainly made detailed inquiries about the route of “Jiuyang Fortune” and the export situation of China’s new energy vehicles. Captain Qu Xiao answered the questions enthusiastically and simulated the captain’s control and command of the ship on the spot. Captain Qu said that there were 200 new energy vehicles among the vehicles transported on the last voyage. The operation of Ro-Ro carriers is a little bit higher than the requirements of bulk carriers. The transport market for new energy vehicles is also growing rapidly, and the demand for talents in this area is growing.

In 2020, Changjiu Logistics purchased the international  Ro-Ro vessel “Jiuyang Fortune” and launched it on a trial sea freight in the following year, and the company’s routes now cover the Americas, Africa, Southeast Asia, the Far East, Europe, etc. In 2023, China’s automobile exports will continue to maintain a high boom, and “Jiuyang Fortune” has made several voyages in the past few years. In recent transport, the “Jiuyang Fortune” has been fully loaded with approximately 3,500 vehicles on board. This remarkable loading efficiency places it at the forefront of the industry. In the future, the company will also continue to strengthen its operation and management capabilities and optimise its cross-border transport solutions, to contribute to the prosperous development of China’s automotive industry chain.
