Abstract:

Blockchain technology in the application of the shipping logistics industry is the industry that has been focused on the topic, so it is necessary to discuss how the application of blockchain technology affects shipping logistics enterprises’ cooperation and competition. Therefore, a shipping logistics supply chain composed of a freight forwarding company building a shipping logistics blockchain platform and two competing shipping companies is taken as the research object, then the impact of different equilibrium decisions on operational decisions is compared and analyzed by establishing game models of competition and cooperation under different circumstances. The results are as follows:(1) When the intensity of competition among the shipping companies is high and the information disclosure level of shipping logistics is low, the freight forwarders can profit from maintaining the competitive situation of the traditional logistics chain, and shipping companies have the incentive to form alliances. (2) When the intensity of competition between shipping companies is low and the information disclosure level of shipping logistics is high, the construction of shipping logistics blockchain platform by freight forwarding companies and the shipping companies “uplink” in the form of alliance to form a competitive situation can obtain greater benefits. (3) It is highlighted that using the decentralized characteristics of shipping logistics blockchain platform to form a cooperative alliance with shipping companies as a whole can make the revenue of cooperative game reach Pareto optimum. The research conclusions can provide a theoretical basis for the cooperation and competition strategies formed by the application of blockchain technology in logistics enterprises.

Key words: blockchain, shipping logistics supply chain, cooperation and competition
