On February 25, Zong Qinghou, the founder of Wahaha Group, passed away due to illness, a news that shocked the entire business community. However, just when people were grieving, Nongfu Spring Company, which had a dispute with Zong Qinghou, fell into an Internet turmoil.
According to rumors, Nongfu Spring has recently suffered a cyber attack, accused of being "expelled by Wahaha" and "ungrateful to Wahaha". This news has aroused the attention and heated discussions of all walks of life, and people have started discussions on it.
In response to these rumors, the founder, chairman and general manager of Nongfu Spring, Zhong Sui, published an article on March 3 titled "Zhong Sui: My Second and Third Matters with Zong Lao", trying to clarify the facts. Zhong first denied the rumors on the Internet, saying that the first pot of gold he earned from his business did not come from Wahaha, but from the cloth business.
He recalled the early years of cooperation with Zong Qinghou, saying that he had suggested that Zong Qinghou produce canned eight-treasure porridge, and played a role in promoting products such as Wahaha Children's Nutrition Oral Liquid. However, the rumors that the dealer was fired after the poor sales led to the rush have become a shadow that is difficult to eliminate.
Zhong also shared his entrepreneurial experience, mentioning the process of founding Yangshengtang and Nongfu Spring. Despite all the difficulties and challenges, he persevered in his dream and eventually succeeded. He said that the practice of "rushing goods" many years ago was not considered illegal or immoral at the time, but a common phenomenon in market competition.
In this business turmoil, the love and hatred between Zong Qinghou and Zhong Sui were also shown one by one. From the initial cooperation to the later competition, the relationship between the two can be described as "in the same boat through thick and thin". And in the world where shopping malls are like battlefields, the grievances and hatreds between them are even more indescribable.
However, it is worth noting that even in the vicissitudes of business competition, they have supported and supported each other. When Nongfu Spring fell into the crisis of "arsenic gate", Zong Qinghou publicly expressed his support for Zhong Sui, showing the spirit of unity among Zhejiang businessmen. This spirit of solidarity and mutual assistance is not only vividly reflected in the business community in Zhejiang, but also injects positive energy into the whole society.
Looking back on this complicated business past, we can't help but feel a lot of emotion. Shopping malls are like battlefields, with both competition and friendship of mutual support. For Zhong and Nongfu Spring, they are not only competitors in the mall, but also passers-by in each other's lives, leaving each other's footprints and memories.
Finally, let us cherish the memory of Mr. Zong Qinghou's achievements and contributions with awe, and also wish Mr. Zhong and Nongfu Spring Company more brilliant achievements in the future!
