Wahaha's sales skyrocketed, and the number of fans increased by 1 million, which continued to ferment in **. Faced with this situation, Zhong Sui felt panicked.
On March 3, he wrote an article titled "Two or Three Things with the Elder Zong" overnight, personally clarifying the dispute between him and the elder Zong. However, he was not really afraid of these situations, but of other things.
Wahaha's sales increased by more than 500% in two days, and the number of followers on the official account increased by more than 1 million in two days.
At the same time, the grievances between Zhong Sui and the sect elder were **, which affected Zhong Sui's reputation. Some netizens called Zong Fuli a "princess" and expressed their support for her to become the richest man in China.
However, Zhong was not moved by this, because he clearly knew that once the heat passed, Wahaha was likely to return to its original state. What he's really worried about is twofold:
First of all, some supermarkets that sell water have started to support Wahaha. Secondly, Wahaha's freezer production line began to increase productivity. These two points mean that even if the heat of Zong Lao's death subsides, Wahaha will still be able to maintain high sales.
This situation made Zhong Sui very uneasy, forcing him to write a manuscript overnight and personally clarify the matter between him and the sect elder. The length of the full text is close to 1300 words, and Zhong refuted three rumors about him on the Internet in the article:
First of all, he denied that the first capital when he started his business came from the cloth business, not Wahaha. Second, he stated that he had never worked at Wahaha and had not been fired for rushing goods.
Finally, he said that natural water and purified water are the propositions of their respective brands, and there is no mutual pressure. Chung insists that minerals in water are essential for human health.
And trying to defend himself, an act that is considered a blatant lie of an unscrupulous entrepreneur who started as a journalist and demonstrated a skillful ability to manipulate words.
In fact, as early as 2018, CCTV has refuted rumors, pointing out that pure water will not lead to nutritional deficiencies. When the experts made such a statement, the audience made a voice of surprise.
It can be seen that the slander of Wahaha and the misleading perception of pure water directly led to the decline in the sales of Wahaha pure water, and it has been in a slump since then.
Although the full text of Zhong's clarification is forcefully worded, it lacks sincerity and the justification is too pale. The full text ** appears 21 times "total elder", of which the first two paragraphs are used 9 times, giving people a false sense of compassion for a cat crying mouse.
In particular, he mentioned that Zong Lao hated online violence during his lifetime, but in the name of Zong Lao, there was a lot of slander against me and Nongfu Spring on the Internet, which is definitely not what Zong Lao wanted to see.
Judging by the wording of Zhong's eyes, how ridiculous is this behavior? He tried to use the name of the patriarch to silence online voices, calling it online violence.
And at the end of the article, he didn't forget to remind us not to be led by individual self-** or big V. However, this practice seems to be preaching that the sect elder is happy to see the slander of Wahaha's pure water.
Nowadays, the most concerned question on the whole network is whether Zhong Shuzi is an "American". Zhong conclusively blamed the violence of the Internet, but did not mention whether his son had American citizenship.
He kept mentioning the "deceased" clan elder in the full text of the clarification to justify the facts in order to suppress the voices of netizens. This kind of misgiving, not daring to take the initiative to clarify, is it because of the fear of attracting more criticism?
Or did he acquiesce to the fact that his son has U.S. citizenship? If you have no guilt in your heart, why don't you take the initiative to clarify it? According to information on the web.
Born in 1988, Zhong Shuzi graduated from the University of California, holds American citizenship, and is a non-executive director and a member of the audit committee of Nongfu Spring.
In fact, as an entrepreneur, Zhong is well aware that Chinese people are particularly sensitive to the nationality and identity of entrepreneurs and the rich, and it is easy to touch the sensitive nerves of national feelings.
If this is just a rumor, then the ** of "Farmer and Snake" spread on the Internet in the past few days can be described as a raging momentum, which may constitute a fatal blow to Nongfu Spring Enterprise and Zhong Sui himself.
After all, it is difficult for Chinese people to accept a national brand, and the identity of the future successor of a wealthy family is actually American. Therefore, it is hoped that Zhong will be able to clarify this fact as soon as possible.
Don't refute rumors in the name of the late patriotic entrepreneur, only sincerity can win the support of the public and netizens. Finally, I would like to pay my respects to the Patriarch! I wish Wahaha more and more prosperity.
The general elder once said: "As long as the money does not flow to foreigners, it is the wealth of us Chinese." I just need to spend that little money to reinvest, create more jobs, and generate more income for the country. At the end of the day, it's all about the development of society. ”
