Under the background of carbon neutrality, the blowout development of overseas business has put forward new requirements for Chinese automobile related service supporting enterprises, especially in the field of maritime logistics. This means that to promote the high gold content "made in China" to the world, we need to vigorously strengthen the chain and supplement the chain.

As an important part of SAIC's global supply chain center, Anji logistics has built a strong logistics system covering 30 waterway trunk lines, 130 railway trunk lines and 4900 highway trunk lines in China. At the same time, Anji logistics has actively built a transportation network overseas, taking the lead in opening up the first ro ro international route independently operated by Chinese auto enterprises - China to Southeast Asia. So far, it has successfully built six international routes in Southeast Asia, Mexico, South America, West America and Europe.
"this is the first ro ro ship with 7600 berths invested by Chinese shipowners, because the dual carbon target is very important in our whole industry. LNG dual fuel is an effective solution to reduce carbon emissions in the short and medium term." Wang Zemin said that the two ships built this time fully comply with the requirements of European regulations. After completion, they will be mainly used for Australia New Zealand routes, taking into account European routes.
It is reported that the RO ro ship contains a C-type double ear tank with a cabin capacity of 4000 cubic meters and can carry 7600 international standard passenger cars, which can meet the environmental protection and emission requirements of developed countries and regions in North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand in 2030, and basically meet the gas demand of a round-trip voyage between China and South America and China and Europe.
At the same time, with China's export, a large number of products include new energy products and intelligent network products. The new ro ro ship is built in 13 layers of plywood, and the top 4 layers of plywood are specially designed for new energy vehicles and even hydrogen fuel vehicles. "To a certain extent, it has also made some modifications to improve the height of our Chinese products, including ship lightweight, and reasonably reduce some structural parts." Wang Zemin said.
support the overseas export of Chinese brands
In fact, Anji logistics continues to accelerate the layout of Automobile Ro ro business and build a strong, safe and efficient global supply chain system to escort the overseas business of Chinese brands, including SAIC.

Only Saic Motor Corporation Limited(600104) itself, the overseas sales in 2021 reached 697000, including 598000 exported and 99000 produced and sold in overseas bases.

"with the increasing volume of made in China exports, RO ro resources are relatively tight. At present, although our foreign trade business has just started, we will continue to increase investment, and actively look for external partners to quickly build a foreign trade fleet to ensure that Chinese automobile products can be transported abroad." Wang Zemin said.
"SAIC's sales in overseas markets have increased rapidly in recent years, which fully reflects our scale effect." The relevant person in charge of Saic Motor Corporation Limited(600104) said that behind these data, supply chain enterprises have played a major guarantee role.
