The driver says

The cabbie wants to resign and take a second job.

Since the advent of Internet taxi companies, discussions on whether or not to influence the taxi industry have been quiet. And in the Low-cost car on the line, for drivers, this psychological shock is more intense. If prices move closer, the internet giants will even be able to walk away from taxi companies and their drivers. Guangzhou Dragon Taxi Company Master Han said that the car on the Guangzhou taxi industry has become more and more obvious, he has made up his mind to resign to open a special bus.

In Guangzhou taxi industry, in addition to the "resignation of the party", as well as "wait-and-see party", from Guangzhou Traffic Group Taxi Company Master Li is a wait-and-see changes in the case of one of the cabbies. He told reporters that his car does not have access to a taxi software, and now fewer guests in the daytime, the peak is relatively good. In addition, he said, taxi hire is now becoming more difficult. "If it doesn't change, the chances of leaving the taxi industry are getting smaller," he laments.

And a drop of the preferred type of car Liu Master said that his job is actually for a company to drive, but now he will take time out to open a special car. "To make extra money," he says, "If you go to a taxi company, it's hard for him to have this kind of free space."

Public Choice

Regular shuttle bus to work, but also share coupons

Also think "why not", there are some interviewed Guangzhou residents. What they are saying is that if the car is better in terms of comfort and convenience, and the price is within an acceptable range, it will naturally be given more consideration.

Ms. Han, who works for the advertising agency, recently had a "crush" on the Shenzhou rental car. Every morning on work day, she will be working with colleagues in the vicinity of the Shenzhou car rental company to the unit. "Because they are the company with the car, more reliable, high safety factor," The interview with Ms. Han to reporters, said her own and around the frequency of taxis have been greatly reduced, "because the network taxi companies more concessions, such as the limousine service also to be more in place." Sometimes if you're lucky, you'll probably be a Mercedes or a BMW. She also told reporters that colleagues and friends around her often share coupons and taxi software information.

In this competition between taxis and internet car companies, it is clear that there is no difference between a soldier and a pawn, but also that the internet industry is facing a corresponding traditional industry, already and may cause shocks.

Members ' advice

Change the traditional thinking and reform the taxi industry

Then the introduction of Low-cost car of the internet giants, will not make the taxi market cake change way to divide? Will it even push the taxi industry to change? To be sure, such as drops of the company is well-intentioned-drop in Guangzhou launched 10 Yuan starting price of the car at the same time, in Taiyuan, Shanxi is launched with the local taxi start price with 8 yuan of the car, want to compete with the intention of taxis can be one or two.

When the reporter told a Guangzhou taxi company insiders drop the price measures, he said that the taxi company can do very few things, "such as Price is determined by the prices Bureau, not the enterprise can adjust," in his view, the taxi company is a relatively passive role, this situation can only see how the government departments to deal with. But he said it remains to be seen whether the internet giant's money-burning efforts are enduring. The same point of view, there is a transport Department of the relevant people, he thought that the taxi in the consideration of economic interests, but also consider public service and social value, "the Internet taxi companies have no fallback, coupons must not be able to change every day," he said.

But if the drop of the Low-cost strategy, in the short term really to the taxi industry to form a strong enough force? Reporters interviewed Guangzhou CPPCC member Han Zhipeng, he thought if the real hand-to-hand combat, the relevant departments can do is only take. So he said the department should not continue to open one eye, but should change the traditional management thinking, keep abreast of changes in market demand, real reform. Before the Ministry of Transport Minister Yang in the national two sessions, the taxi industry reform has entered a new stage, the next reform will try to coordinate the interests of taxi users, operators and Internet operators, so that the public has a better travel experience.

"Internet +" changing travel habits taxi industry to open up quantitative control

Yangcheng Evening News reporter Seng reports: Despite the regulatory "constraints", after the merger of the drip and fast use of "Internet +" power to change the traditional taxi industry momentum is a round of fierce.

Recently, drop, quickly announced the total investment of 1 billion yuan to subsidize the initial price of users. Yesterday, there is news that drop a taxi will be on the line of new features "drop Carpool", and start a new round of subsidy war. Although the news has not been a positive confirmation of the drop, but the industry said early planning.

"Internet +" is changing travel, but regulation has not been "released", many experts believe that the taxi industry reform must "open up quantitative control", the implementation of "inclusive regulation."

There is news that the drop of a taxi is about to launch the car carpool function. Prior to that, drops of relevant people have been revealed already in the research and development of car-pooling products. Drops of relevant people in the Yangcheng Evening News reporter interviewed without positive confirmation. However, the industry is generally believed that in the already involved in the taxi, car, drop into the field of carpool is sooner or later.

After the merger of drip, fast to the promotion of car speed significantly faster. Drops and quick aspects are clear, for a considerable period of time, the bonus for passengers and incentives for drivers will continue to be issued.

This year, the two sessions of the "Internet +" was written into the government work report, the so-called "Internet +" is to use the power of the Internet to change and upgrade the traditional industries and industries such as basic necessities. Get involved in taxis, cars, carpool and other areas of the drop fast intention is obvious, is the use of the power of the Internet to change people's travel.

After dabbling in carpool, the supervision of the taxi software will be more severe. Experts believe that for innovation, should adopt "inclusive supervision", not under the original method of regulation.

"The fundamentals of the control of the number of operating vehicles have disappeared," Schrocher, a prominent economist, said. "The basis of taxi quantity control is asymmetric information, the Internet has eliminated information asymmetry and continued quantitative control is difficult to justify." ”

Chen Xiaobing, a member of the Beijing Political Consultative Committee who proposed the relevant proposals in the previous period, said, "the current regulations of the relevant departments prohibit private car access and operation, is a kind of government-generated ideas, and the free development of the market is contrary to the idea." Government management must adapt to the new changes in the market, and actively promote the reform of the taxi industry, rather than protect the vested interests in the market barriers. ”
