Hello, MAERSK Maersk
This company originated from Viking, and later took the right path to make shipping. Its headquarters is in Copenhagen, and it is a 6-story building with an elevator, but few people take the elevator. Because the big boss climbs the stairs to his office on the sixth floor every day, no one dares to sit and climb the stairs. Mearsk is famous for its arrogance, rigidity and reputation, and its tax paid accounts for 41% of Denmark's go-vern-ment income, which is a giant cow in Denmark. Its expatriates are famous for their low quality. For example, Su Enshen, the general manager of China District, used to be the driver of the boot card in Denmark. It is said that the column of education in his resume is always empty. However, Mearsk has high requirements for new employees, which are divided into employee and trainee. The former is a general employee, and the latter will go to the Danish headquarters for several months of intensive training (it is cruel, and the teaching materials are as thick as Ci Hai, with three copies), and then they will be sent to work all over the world. Finally, regardless of men and women, they will go on board for training for half a year, and then they will be entrusted with heavy responsibilities. Maersk specializes in big customers, but he doesn't care about small companies ~ the service level is not high, and some customers say that their employees even do an EXCEL form badly. However, the company is indeed very large, acquiring SEALAND and P&; After O, the market share has reached about 25%, which is very large ........................................................................................................................................................... O, APL also joined the competition and almost negotiated for a time, but Maersk took out billions of dollars in cash according to APL's bid, and APL, who was ready to pay by installment, was speechless ... Finally, of course, the richest young man married a beautiful wife ...? It suddenly occurred to me that Maersk seems to specialize in buying the fourth shipping company in the world, SEALAND and P&; O was all ranked fourth when it was bought. Who will be next?
2. MSC mediterranean shipping company
A money laundering institution in European society B, registered in Switzerland. It is said that MSC went to the shipyard to build a ship like this: send a few people to carry a lot of cash in a big suitcase. After negotiating a contract with the shipyard, open the suitcase, count out a certain proportion of cash from it, and then give the rest to the shipyard, saying that I have taken my commission. This is the deposit, so sign the contract. The names of MSC ships are mostly girls' names, such as Lolita and Famiya. MSC never melts with other companies, the ships are huge, the freight rate is extremely low and the service is extremely poor. I rarely rent boxes, all of which are my own boxes.
3. EVERGREEN Evergreen Shipping
Zhang Rongfa's 41-year hard work has led to a very chaotic management. The reason is that Zhang Rongfa has too many wives, and his wife naturally has more sons. Boss Zhang has six sons and two daughters, so many children have to arrange jobs. However, except for the second son, none of them are in tune, and the children are struggling with each other, which is very tragic. Evergreen is a joint-stock company, controlled by Zhang Rongfa, but there are other people's shares. When the shipping market was in the lowest ebb, Zhang Rongfa registered Lirong with his own money to prevent Evergreen from suddenly falling down. But then the market got better and better, and Evergreen got better and better, so Evergreen bought Lirong at a high price, and Zhang Rongfa made a fortune himself. Later, in order to operate direct flights between the two sides of the strait, we continued to acquire Italy Post and made direct flights in the name of European companies. HASU MARINE (Absolute Insider) was established last year, because the capacity of Evergreen will increase by 41% in 2116, and the risks should be dispersed.
4. COSCO COSCO
As the second navy of China, Cosco enjoys the most favorable shipping policy of the country. We have more contact with COSCO Container Lines. In the past two years, the shipping market has been booming, but CIMC has not made any money. The main reason is that the freight rate system of CIMC is too chaotic, and special applications are flying all over the sky. Almost every application has a background, and the competent personnel have to approve it. As a veteran state-owned enterprise, COSCO has many problems in its management system, such as the crew income, which is very low. Legend has it that when Wei Jiafu, the current group president, was transferred from Singapore to Tianyuan as general manager, his luggage in Singapore was brought to Tianjin by COSCO container ship. The crew heard that these things were led by an important leader above, so they did not hesitate to throw all the big boxes of treasures into the sea. There were many shareholders and cultural relics in the boxes. It is said that Cosco is more harsh on the crew after this. Some time ago, COSCO established Pan-Asian Shipping, and all the near-ocean routes were included in Pan-Asia's banner. The main monograph of COSCO Container Lines was to do a good job in the global mid-ocean routes. Cosco is also the Whampoa Military Academy in contemporary China shipping industry. Many people in the shipping industry who want to be big have served from Cosco. This phenomenon also shows another problem: Cosco is like a piece of fat. Those who have the ability are willing to take a big bite and eat slowly elsewhere. It is unknown how many millionaires Cosco has created.
5、P& O Nedlloyd Tiexing Zhahua
p&; O and Nedlloyd were originally two companies, P&; O is the famous "Peninsula and the East". Anyone who has studied maritime law knows the "Himalayan Clause" (this clause is on the back of every bill of lading), and the earliest case is from this company. In 1997 (it seems, about this time), the two companies took out the container business and set up a joint venture with Tiexing Zhahua. This company adheres to the steady style of European craftsmanship. Although it has nothing to be praised, it has no shortcomings that people hate. Unlike Maersk, it has a natural sense of superiority, and all rules must be obeyed by itself. In fact, Maersk is the one who loses the most when the shipping market is in a downturn. Companies like Tiexing Zhahua are different, just one word: stable!
6. CMA CGM Duffy Ship
Duffy's original name is CMA, which means Country Marine or something (A stands for forgetting something), but now Duffy's full name is CMA-CGM. What happened? Here's the thing. There is a post saying that CMA is a French company, which is good, but the boss of CMA is Lebanese, that is, the boss of CGM. CMA owes CGM a lot of money in history, so it was acquired by CGM, but CMA's reputation in the industry is greater than CGM, so the name of the new company is CMA-CGM. CMA is an F&D-type European company with excellent management methods. Let's just say that CMA had the highest profit rate and space utilization rate among the top 21 liner companies when the shipping market was in the lowest downturn. In addition, CMA was very successful in capital operation. Besides CMA, CMA was also acquired by ANL (Australian National Shipping), but the high point of CMA was that it only acquired ANL trunk line business, while the partial port and branch line business ANL was taken care of by Wanrong Shipping, that is, only fat meat was needed, not bones. CMA also has advantages in African routes. Please look at the specific reasons when talking about CMA.
7. Canada Pacific Canada Pacific (some people mistakenly think it is Taiping Shipping)
Commonly known as CP, Canada Pacific, CP is Canada's largest railway operating company and is state-owned. This company makes a lot of money. What should we do if it makes more money? Of course, it won't build ships like MSC. MSC doesn't come in the right way, and it's all cash, so CP doesn't have to launder money. So it bought a shipping company and bought three companies, Canada Shipping, TMM and Lykes, collectively known as CP, but they appeared in the market separately. By the way, the Chinese names of the above three companies are Canadian Shipping, Mexican Steamship and Lake. The general representative and deputy general representative of CP China are middle-aged ladies, Hong Kong people, full of charm.
8. PIL Taiping Shipping
The relationship between Singapore Taiping Shipping and China, especially China's Ministry of Communications, is very unusual. Before the opening up, many things that could not be shipped or places that could not be reached in China were found by the Ministry of Communications, and Taiping did it. Therefore, after the opening up, Taiping was the first liner company to obtain domestic business qualifications. Taiping Group's business is divided into three parts, namely, three subsidiaries, one is a shipping company, the other is a container factory (container building), and the third is a logistics company. Taiping is also a family company. The founder, the old gentleman (forgot), gave three companies to his two sons to run.
9. OOCL OOCL
OOCL didn't use that name before. Its original name was Jinshan Steamship Company, and its founder was Dong Haoyun. Maybe everyone didn't know it, but everyone in Tung Chee-hwa knew it. Dong Haoyun was his father. In 1947, Dong Haoyun's ship became the first China merchant ship to reach the other side of the Atlantic and Europe. Later, he continued to develop regular passenger and freight services in the name of Jinshan Shipping Company.
in 1969, the container transportation industry rose, and Jinshan steamship was renamed Orient Overseas Container Shipping. At that time, the "Victory" class vessel could only carry 311 TEUs, which could not be compared with today's super Panama ocean container ships. In the second quarter of 2113, the commissioning of two super-large vessels will make the maximum throughput of OOCL container vessels reach 7,711 TEUs. In 1982, Mr. Dong Haoyun died, and his son, Mr. Tung Chee-hwa, was in charge of OOCL's parent company, OOCL (International) Co., Ltd. ("OOCL") for 2114 years. In 1996, after Mr. Tung Chee-hwa was elected as the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, his younger brother, Mr. Dong Jiancheng, took over as the chairman of OOCL.
11, HANJIN Hanjin
It was only in the early 1991s that South Korea established diplomatic relations with us, so Hanjin set up its representative offices in Shanghai, Tianjin, Dalian, Qingdao, Beijing and other cities in China in 1993, and vigorously carried out business activities in China. However, Hanjin is still one of the few foreign shipping companies that first entered the shipping market in China. Today, Hanjin has successfully acquired 81% equity of Germany's Victory Shipping Company from 1997. Victory Shipping has a perfect service network and a loyal customer base in Europe. In this way, Hanjin has great advantages in the Mediterranean and European routes, and has great strength and energy to compete with other ships for the American line. In fact, Hanjin Shipping is only a part of Hanjin Group. Hanjin Group takes shipping, land transportation and air transportation as its core business, and then focuses on the diversified development of logistics-related industries. Now it has become a manufacturer of transportation machinery and equipment and a supplier of information and communication services. Korean Air is a well-known name, right? Because of its connection with Hanjin Group, Korean Air is the only cargo transportation company in the world that integrates land transportation, sea transportation and air transportation. This is the unique advantage of their "Sky Bridge". The "air bridge" is a cooperative body through three modes of transportation: sea, land and air, providing record-breaking connection time and high-quality price. Through the joint efforts of Hanjin Land Transportation Company, Hanjin Shipping Company and Korean Air, this service can save up to 65% of general air transportation costs. Now this kind of "air bridge" provides the shortest and most economical route for Chinese mainland and other destinations in Asia. As a pioneer in the air transport department of Hanjin Group, Korean Air is striving to become one of the top airlines in the world in the 21st century.
11.nyk
(nippon Yusen Kaishaline Ltd) is actually very good, and even has the opportunity to surpass Maersk. And look at the last words. NYK's ro-ro and bulk cargo businesses are among the best in the industry, and the scale of NYK's ro-ro fleet is the largest in the world. At the same time, NYK's bulk carrier and oil tank fleet are also the second largest in the world. Most of the ro-ro transportation is the export of their cars, and a large share of them is China, and, of course, America. Nyk has been around since NYK1871, and now it has changed its name. The earliest name is Tsukumo Shokai Shipping company. Later it was called Mitsukawa Shokai. Later, Mitsubishi Shokai didn't start its first international route until 1875, that is, with our China, from Yokohama to Shanghai. Then it was called Mitsubishi Kisen, and then Mitsubishi Mail Steamship Company basically did business with us in China for a long time, many ports, Tianjin, etc., and then it developed to Southeast Asia, the Philippines, etc. At that time, it was the time when the Qing Dynasty fell. Alas, it hurt my feelings to mention it. At the beginning, it was pursued by Yuan Shikai, and Liang Qichao fled to Japan, that is, by Japanese boat. Liang Qichao and his party, including seven people, left Shanghai for Hong Kong by the Yokohama Maru mail ship of the Japan Mail Company. On March 7th, 1916, the ship arrived in Hong Kong. Entrusted by Yuan go-vern-ment, the British Hong Kong authorities immediately sent a patrol to board the ship and searched it severely. Liang Qichao narrowly escaped at the bottom of the ship. In the next two days, the Japanese military attache in Guangdong, the consul in Hong Kong, the head of the mail ship club and Mitsui Foreign Firm all went to visit Liang under the cabin, with a cordial attitude. On March 2nd, Liang Qichao, disguised as a Japanese, sneaked into Miaoyishan Pill on a small steamer. On this shabby and dirty coal carrier, the Japanese have already arranged a clean and comfortable fine room for Liang, and the food supply is particularly rich. On March 5, the ship arrived at Hongya, a coal-producing area near Haiphong, Vietnam. In order to avoid the raids by the French colonial authorities, a Japanese businessman and two Japanese women had been waiting here, taking advantage of the dark night rain to cover Liang Qichao's sneaking onto his yacht. Then they pretended to be sightseeing and wandered around the sea for a day and a night, and finally arrived at Haiphong on the night of June 6. Hengshan hid Liang Qichao in his pasture. Here, Liang Qichao suffered from an extremely dangerous fever. If Hengshan was not treated with herbs in time, Liang Qichao might have died in a foreign land. Ten days later, Liang Qichao entered Guangxi through Zhennanguan.
13.APL President of the United States
Everyone is called "America General", but he is actually controlled by Singapore. On April 3, 1997, NOL in Singapore formally signed an agreement with APL in the United States, and NOL will acquire all the shares of APL. NOL will have a total of ***113 ships including all the capacity of APL, and the total turnover will exceed 4 billion US dollars. In this way, NOL jumped from the original ranking of 15th to the 5th largest shipping company in the world. APL has been engaged in transportation and logistics business for a long time, and it is one of the best shipping companies in the United States. It has an unquestionable position on trans-Pacific routes and a considerable share in the Asian shipping market. Pacific route is the development goal of NOL, and the joining of APL makes this goal come true.
the biggest benefit of p>NOL's merger with APL lies in its huge brand equity and foreign market. After the merger, APL still retains its company name and company logo, the management department is still located in Auckland, and the fleet continues to operate as an American ship. Not only that, NOL also brought its container fleet into the APL name and participated in the market competition under the APL name. According to relevant statistics, the sales return rate of APL has reached 16.8%.
if we move the time forward ten years, APL will also attract the attention of the industry. The gratifying business growth in its Pacific route
