■ Taobao, research with a private space company - Delivery by a real rocket?
Taobao (headquarters: Hangzhou), a Chinese online website, has embarked on a research project to deliver by rocket with a private space company, aiming to deliver anywhere in the world within one hour.
Taobao is in the same family as AliExpress, which is also gaining popularity in the global market as well as domestically.
This project is obviously difficult to achieve in the short term, but if it is commercialized after long-term research, it is certain to play a major role in the global market.
According to Chinese media, a private commercial rocket research company, Genyuankeji, said it is researching a project with Taobao to make real rocket delivery possible.
'Yuansxingzhe-1', which is currently being researched as a core project, can carry about 10 tons (t) of cargo, which means it can transport general parcels and large cargo of medium and small sizes.
Taobao plans to make global delivery possible within one hour through rocket delivery.
AliExpress, which is currently in the same family as Taobao, is in competition with Temu, a newcomer who has recently emerged, for the global market.
These two companies are rapidly occupying the global market, but slow delivery is a problem.
The global market seems to be the next battleground for who occupies it first and most, and for delivery issues.
It seems that the Alibaba Group, which currently owns Taobao and AliExpress, has recently been focusing on delivery services and quality, anticipating that this will be the next battleground.
Recently, even within China, delivery that used to take 2-3 days has been changing to half-day delivery, which can be considered innovative.
As the rocket delivery research itself is still in its early stages, detailed methods have not been disclosed.
■ Conclusion
Experts believe that Taobao's push to make real rocket delivery a reality is not feasible in the short term.
However, there are many opinions that this research itself is very meaningful.
It is undeniable that this is a groundbreaking research that is changing the e-commerce delivery system itself.
China is currently competing with Korea and even the United States on a similar level in many fields.
If this rocket delivery is fully developed, it is expected to bring major changes to the global market.
