或许恒大自己都想不到,时隔多年能够以一种奇怪的形式登上热榜。 就在上周,某车企大佬的一番惊人言论引发了广泛关注。他的原话是"汽车产业里的恒大已经出现, 只不过还没爆。"此言一出,在汽车消费市场和金融二级市场中激起巨大涟漪。 之所以能引发热议,一是源于恒大暴雷事件给人们留下的深刻印象,二是车企大佬侃侃而谈但又斩钉 截铁的口吻,一下子将很多人带歪,一起去钻"谁是车圈恒大"这个故意留下的牛角尖。 无端的指责最终变成无序的舆论风波:对企业的无端指责、对财务数据的误解、对自主汽车发展的误 读、对品牌产品的主观好恶,以及根深蒂固的阴谋论思维交织在一起,让所有自主车企包括大佬自 己,都陷入了"无妄之灾"。 无论从哪个角度看,这股明显不合理、不正常的舆论风潮,已经到了必须及时叫停并且澄清的时刻。 "恒大"不是随口说说,就 能"扣"上的 | 通用汽车 | 74.501% | 76.55% | P3.5 77. | - 76-419 | 9176 | 即成三郎是 | 153 | 221.49 | 105 | 21.26 | 374 | | | | 2024年国内主演车企业付到款及付款周圍情况 | | | --- | --- | ...
