在我看来,得益于(中国的)这些发展,一些科技巨头不仅规模庞大,发展态势也非常迅猛。
What I think is that thanks to these development, some of these tech giants, they are both big and good in development.
对我们集团和我们所处的交通行业而言,这意味着对于交通运输和可持续交通解决方案的需求会大幅增加。
For us, what we have translated into our industry is obviously the demand on transportation, and sustainable transportation will increase.
主要有以下几方面的原因,中国消费者期待更好的服务品质,比如在电商平台购物时,他们要求更快的送达时间,这就需要全新的物流解决方案。我认为如果我们想在未来赢得全球市场,我们必须立足于中国,如果我们在中国市场没有竞争力,那在其他市场同样也会遇到问题。
It will increase for several reasons, it will increase because Chinese consumers are expecting a certain service level, when it comes to delivery time, for example things they have been buying on these platforms, that will require completely different, or continue to develop the transport solutions that we see today. I think if we want to win globally in the long run, you need to be here and understand that you, if you are not competitive here, you would have problems all over the places.
袁小珊:
说到可持续交通,您认为我们还有多久才能完全实现这一目标呢?
Speaking of the sustainable transportation,how long you think this journey will be until we fully realize and achieve the sustainable transportation?
马丁•伦德斯泰特:
我认为这将需要持续的努力。但我也看到很有可能在未来5-10年内,就可以实现我们在过去30或40年里取得的成就。其原因在于科技发展非常迅猛,比如这些全新的基于数字化的科技应用和工具,包括人工智能,机器学习等;此外,得益于互联互通技术,让我们享有更高的透明度,大家也都更加贴近价值链,这些也使得经济的转型更为快速,这是其一。
I think it will be a constant development, but I think we will see probably more progress in this area over the coming five or ten years that we have been seeing in the last 30 or 40 years. The reason is that the technology development goes quicker, the application of, the digital, so to speak, tools, that is based on the digitalization area, artificial intelligence, machine learning, but also that you are getting closer to the value chain thanks to that you are connected, and more transparent, that could drive this transformation even quicker, that is one part of it.
第二个方面,大家包括我们自己已经意识到,如果想让这个世界实现长足发展,我们必须在这一领域有所作为,目前全球大部分国家和地区的领导人也都意识到了。
The second part is that the world and people like ourselves have realized that if we want to have the world in the long run, and also the political leadership in most parts of the world is recognizing that this is the area where we need to put efforts.
最后一点也非常重要,人们意识到,单靠一个企业单一角色是远远不够的,我们必须参与到整个系统中,而非各自为营。如果你能很好的管理这个生态系统,融入其中,并和你的支持者保持良好的合作,你才能获得成功。这将是我们未来主要的发展机会所在。
