Each freighter was essentially a fully-equipped enterprise on its own, where loading and unloading cargo was akin to sales and purchasing, fundamentally no different from business operations, only with added route and equipment management.
Only minor modifications were needed for "Tianshu" to replace the existing "outdated" vessel management systems in terms of application scenarios and functional modules.
