農夫山泉(09633.HK)遭網民抵制曾跌近4% 鍾??澄清第一桶金非來自娃哈哈
娃哈哈創辦人宗慶後日前離世,內地網絡指摘傳聞中曾是娃哈哈代理的農夫山泉(09633.HK)創辦人鍾??忘恩負義,更發起抵制農夫山泉的行動。就此,鍾??日前(3月3日)指與宗慶後亦師亦友,也互爲競爭對手,而宗慶後生前痛恨網絡暴力,網絡上借其離世對鍾??與農夫山泉的詆譭絕非宗慶後所樂見。
鍾??澄清,布匹生意纔是其創業所得的第一桶金,而非網上傳言「第一筆創業收入來自於娃哈哈」。他於1988年2月辭去記者工作後從商,曾辦報紙及種過蘑菇均沒成功。但在海南創業期間發現1990年前後當地房地產剛剛興起,卻沒有窗簾布加工能力,於是在海南成立大成窗簾公司,將杭州生產的窗簾布運到海南銷售,並逐漸將業務發展到北京王府井、燕莎百貨。
他續稱,於1991年經前同事介紹有幸去杭州娃哈哈總部拜會宗慶後,其後宗慶後邀他一起去看其剛收購的罐頭廠,遂想起當時東南亞一些地區流行的八寶粥罐頭,並將想法告訴宗慶後。宗慶後覺得該建議有市場,並投入研發與製造生產娃哈哈營養八寶粥,更提議鍾??在廣西及海南成立娃哈哈辦事處銷售娃哈哈兒童營養口服液。但當時海南、廣西市場消費需求並沒有達到預期,難以將產品銷出去。之後有幾個商貿公司到海南進貨,他才得以將進貨出清。後來瞭解到兒童營養口服液在廣東是有市場。
很多年後,他在一次農夫山泉的銷售會議上開玩笑指當年在海南沒賣出去的娃哈哈,估計是被賣去了廣東,如果放到現在就要被認定爲「衝貨」。沒想到當時隨口一句戲言,現在竟成「忘恩負義」的罪狀。他強調從未在娃哈哈領薪、更談不上因「衝貨」被開除。
此外,鍾??指於2000年後關於天然水與純淨水之爭沸沸揚揚,娃哈哈與農夫山泉互有訴訟,但最終宗慶後與他在當時杭州市主要領導的見證下握手言和。他對宗慶後的企業家精神的尊敬從未動搖。
農夫山泉今日(5日)曾跌3.9%,低見40.75元,現報40.9元,跌3.54%,成交266.3萬股,涉資1.1億元。
