Abstract

Port has been the important infrastructure and basic industry to national economy and social development. Since the 21st century, with the idea of the fourth industrial revolution and the "Belt and Road" initiative proposed by the Chinese government, intelligent ports have become the important carrier which connects freight trade, logistics, storage, and information service. The construction of intelligent port is also regarded as an important means to enhance the port competitiveness. Qingdao Port, Xiamen Port and Yangshan Port phase IV, is the earliest automatic terminal in China. Weihai Port is located in Shandong Province of China, the nearest port between China and Korea, only 93 nautical miles far away from Incheon port. Around Weihai Port, there are petrochemical, automotive, electronic parts and other industrial park infrastructure. Shipping lines between Weihai Port and Korea and Japan are very busy. Weihai Port has superior geographical position and strong hinterland economy, but the port development is still being hampered by poor infrastructure, inefficiency, low popularity and other problems. Combining China’s intelligent port development in the fourth industrial revolution, Weihai port has the construction problems like small scale, poor efficiency and scattered distributions, a disconnection problem in all aspects, such as few roads and railway lines, low grades and poor collection and distribution efficiency, limited development space and face d brain drain problem. In this situation, this paper puts forward some strategies to help the better development of Weihai port.
