The inside story of the sudden increase in logistics is shocking! It turns out that it is human manipulation behind it

The inside story of the sudden increase in logistics is shocking! It turns out that it is human manipulation behind it


Today, let me tell you something very serious.


Everyone knows that our logistics costs have skyrocketed recently. The logistics costs that had dropped during the power restriction period have all risen again, and even rose more sharply than before! The price of Meisen has risen above 30 yuan/kg, and the highest has exceeded 35 yuan/kg! The price of Meisen's whole container has been hyped up to 60,000 US dollars per piece!

The price reduction before National Day was due to power and production restrictions. After the power restrictions were imposed on factories, production capacity dropped sharply and product delivery time was greatly delayed. Sellers who could originally ship goods in several or dozens of containers can now only ship in combined containers or even have no goods to ship because there are simply not that many goods.


Regardless of whether the power cuts are to limit production and prevent profiteering, the fact is that the machines have stopped, the products are less, and there is not so much cargo to be transported by sea. We sellers don’t feel much, but shipping companies are different. A large number of empty ships are crowded at the port with no cargo to transport. They can make money by transporting empty containers from the United States to China, but they can’t make money the other way around. In desperation, they can only lower prices, hoping that more sellers with goods will ship. The shipping price has plummeted all the way, and it has become the shipping price that was cut in half some time ago.


Then the question is, there is no improvement in the domestic power restriction, factories are shut down as usual, two-day operation and two-day shutdown, three-day operation and three-day shutdown are the norm, product capacity has not increased significantly, so why are shipping prices going up and even higher?


There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Behind the scenes is the shipping companies that control the upstream logistics. They deliberately create congestion and enjoy the huge profits brought by the increase in logistics costs.


The dark side of the leading shipping companies


In the past two days, it was revealed that a large number of cargoes of Zim, one of the world's largest container shipping companies, had been piled up in the closed area for several months without any movement. The authorities did not arrange any work of picking up and unloading the containers, claiming that there was a shortage of unloading staff and that there was an urgent need for truck drivers responsible for transporting the cargoes after unloading.


Yes, we have mentioned the urgent shortage of truck drivers before, but there is a problem here. The leading shipping companies, such as ZIM and Matsun, have all invested in or even directly bought the terminals they manage, so finding people is a matter of whether they want to or not. In the past few months, shipping has been in full swing and it was difficult to find a container. At that time, a 4,000TEU cargo ship could earn back the price of the entire ship with one trip. This crazy wealth made the shipping companies reap the benefits. As a result, there was no shipment due to power and production restrictions. After the sharp drop in shipping prices, the leading shipping companies could not accept such a gap at all, and artificially created this wave of shipping congestion and price surges after the National Day holiday.


The containers are deliberately piled up and not processed, and there is a shortage of drivers and unloading personnel, so they are deliberately not recruited in large numbers. Even if Biden, the US government, has ordered the ports to work 24 hours a day, the shipping companies are still holding back their processing capacity and not opening it up. This is to deliberately create congestion and a shortage of shipping capacity, thereby controlling the rise in shipping prices!


This is not a conspiracy theory, but actual news that Alice got from an industry insider: several leading shipping companies, led by Zim, are monopolizing the first-leg shipping capacity and deliberately driving up shipping prices!

Teacher Alice has severely condemned this matter in our video account.

But the shipping companies are too powerful. If we sellers do not unite to speak out, reflect and complain, we will not be able to shake these capital giants. Only when we all expose and scold, and make a loud enough voice to make the country aware of the true faces and conspiracies of these shipping companies, can the situation of us being ripped off by the shipping companies be completely ended!
