通过运用柏累拓的二八定律——即20%的集装箱班轮公司控制着80%的集装箱班轮运输市场来研究集装箱班轮市场，发现在现有的集装箱班轮公司中4%的班轮公司却占领着82%的班轮运输市场份额，作者把这一发现命题为“特别柏累拓现象”。对于特别柏累拓现象的生成、原因及发展,采用经济学的“零利润趋势”原理对此进行了分析研究,发现集装箱班轮市场的特别柏累拓现象的生成与全球过去10年的GDP和贸易发展紧密相关。由于运输资源在集装箱班轮市场中得到了最佳配置，从而使货主充分享受到了因竞争在运价、服务方面所带来的好处。

现在大部分集装箱运输签订的是一票到底的门到门提单，使得海上、铁路和公路运输在港口、内陆多式联运站点衔接起来，形成一个综合的运输网络，并融入到现代物流系统中。集装箱运输网络一方面要满足现代物流系统高效运行机制的要求，对货物进行跟踪管理，并想尽办法节约运输时间以便及时交货；另一方面还要尽力协调高投资、高固定营运成本和收入风险之间的复杂关系。在这种情况下有两个发展趋势很是明确：第一、集装箱运输业是需要大量资金投入的规模经营，第二、以信息技术为基础的集装箱运输网络的建立和网络的整合重组，进行规模化经营成为集装箱港口的战略取向。

A hierarchized container ports network, with several super hubs and many multilevel hub ports, will be established, mainly serving transshipment and carrying out most of its business in the hub-spoke mode. This paper sums up a programming model, in which the elementary statistic units, cost and expense of every phase of any shipment are the straight objects, and the minimum cost of the whole network is taken as the objective. This is established based on a dynamic system to make out the hierarchical structure of the container ports network, i.e. the trunk hub and feeder hubs can be planned in a economic zone, then the optimal scale vector can also be obtained for all container ports concerned with the network. The vector is a standard measurement to decide a port's position and their scale distribution in the whole network.

As the important infrastructure for a country's foreign trade and economy, and the hub of the communication complex, ports play a pivotal role in the development of national economy and transportation system. The coordination between the port industry and national economy should and must be fully emphasized. Along with the growth of ports and economy of China, the incoordination between the ports and the regional economy has gradually emerged. In order to solve the problem that the development of China's transportation system is lagging behind its economic development, the issue of coordinated development of ports and national economy must be fully stressed. This paper begins with an analysis on the status of ports in the national economy and argues the necessity of the coordination between ports and national economy. An analytical model is then established to explain this necessity by using grey correlation theory. Suggestions and measures for the coordinated development are given in the end.
