In recent years, the freight market, almost more and more depressed, once the "motor ring gold thousand two" period is gone forever, the supply of goods is difficult to find, the freight is less, many owners into business difficulties, some new terms have also begun to prevail, such as "steamed bread army", "steamed bread car", what does this mean?

The so-called "steamed bread car" is actually a different name, referring to those who would rather pull a trip of goods do not make money, drink boiled water, eat steamed bread also want to grab the owners of low-cost orders. Some people describe them this way: "Eat steamed bread, receive boiled water, service area, sleep in the open air, a dish of green vegetables, a pile of noodles, heroic fried meat, garlic to eat enough." Add small oil, walk low speed, as long as the money is less, difficult to walk also want to run, similar to the "rice car", "noodle car".


Sounds very sad appearance, the sports car ran to this part, but also really suffer, to a certain extent is also a helpless choice. However, the majority of freight owners treat the attitude of "steamed bread car" is not sympathetic at all, and even deeply hate, because they think that these "steamed bread army" have to bear hardships themselves, but also try to use low prices to pry orders from peers.


In order to get the supply of goods, they can find the owner of the goods repeatedly and negotiate the price, of course, at least, even if the order is already received, they do not care. Others may still be on the phone to talk about the price, there has been even the deposit has been paid, and even others have ordered the goods, they can also say to the owner that they can reduce the price of transportation, completely regardless of the death of their peers, even if they do not make money, do not let others make money.


"This is the same root, fried what is too urgent", some owners believe that today's freight industry is depressed, not to blame others, blame their peers, clearly can be meat prices, but must be made into steamed bread prices, if you can unite together to resist low freight rates, freight may not drop again, said hate iron is not steel.

Admittedly, the freight market is chaotic, part of the reason is really related to those who take the initiative to cut prices to grab the single owner, after all, "the third party and the oyster fight the fisherman benefits", the initiative to reduce the freight to grab the single is no different from "killing the enemy a thousand self-loss 800" approach, although in the short term it seems to grab the order, earn back the oil money, but over time, the average level of freight will be pulled down. At that time, it will be more difficult to bring up the freight, and now the cost of various vehicles such as oil prices, vehicle urea, vehicle parts are rising, and the freight is down, how to make a living?


On the other hand, those owners who are robbed of the single, in the case of long-term no goods to pull, may also join the ranks of the "steamed bread car", in turn, will be at a lower price to grab the single, so the cycle, freight will only be less and less.


It can be said that the freight market chaos is caused by these owners, but not necessarily, if there are no forced difficulties and pressure, no one is willing to cut prices to sports cars, these difficulties and pressure with the freight environment is also closely related to the following points:


1, the freight market access threshold is low, the number of trucks soared


The 1980s and 1990s can be said to be the golden age of the freight industry, many owners with sports cars to live an enviable rich life, one after another, more and more people aimed at this industry.


Coupled with the rapid rise of China's commercial vehicle industry and logistics transportation industry in recent years, many car companies have launched a variety of promotional measures in order to seize the market, resulting in the continuous reduction of the entry threshold of the freight market. On the one hand, there are people who can't wait to join the freight industry, and on the other hand, there are incentives like zero down payment, resulting in a large number of people and cars flooding into the freight market.


On the one hand, the market competition is fierce, on the other hand, these people may not understand the industry at all, and they do not realize whether their income can pay for the high monthly payment behind the zero down payment after entering the line, once they cannot make ends meet, the price grab has become a means of subsistence.


2. The economic downturn has further intensified the fierce competition in the freight market


In recent years, whether it is international or domestic, the economic environment has produced very big changes. International trade disputes continue, regional wars are frequent, the domestic housing market is cooling, infrastructure projects are not progressing as expected, and so on. As a barometer of economic development, the freight industry naturally cannot be immune, and the contradiction between more vehicles and less goods has been further aggravated.


3. Retail investors account for the main part of the freight market and lack a stable supply of goods


Run transportation want stable income, the source of goods is the key, but in China's freight market, 90% are retail investors, poor operating ability, the source of goods is also unstable, where there is goods to go, and even drive the car to run across the country. The degree of development of the domestic freight market is not very unified, the difference in freight is normal, but when more and more owners into another strange freight environment, it will inevitably have a certain impact on the local market.


4, the freight platform chaos, lack of corresponding supervision


The emergence of the freight platform was originally to facilitate the distribution of goods, price competition can be reduced, the reference price is significantly lower than the market price to guide the transaction, and the chaos of apparently suspected overloaded orders occurs frequently, so that the owners are criticized, and even call for the banning of the freight platform. As a commercial profit organization, the freight platform naturally puts its own interests in the first place, if it can not establish relevant standards, strengthen its supervision, from the source to solve the current problems of price pressure, violations, non-standard, inaction, etc., then the freight rate will probably fall again and again.


5, special car is not dedicated, illegal models on the road, seize the market supply


When it comes to non-dedicated vehicles, common ones such as low-plate semi-trailers and car carriers are much larger than ordinary vehicles in terms of outer size, which is in order to meet the particularity of the goods they transport. In addition, those illegally modified models, such as adding high railboards, widening and lengthening the cargo compartment, "big strange", "two strange", the loading volume has increased significantly, super wide, super long, and super high. Once such a vehicle is used in the general market, the load is very terrible, and other models are not rivals at all, so many owners regard it as the culprit of disrupting the freight market, which is one of the reasons for the continued decline in freight costs.

In fact, DARO trailer axle believes that whether it is a "steamed bread car" or not a "steamed bread car", a small amount of freight is certainly not willing to see, want to revive the freight market, promote its development for the better, you need to work together, of course, also rely on the authority to develop the corresponding measures and systems, many measures together, It is possible to achieve good and stable development.
