从"盼着继续补贴"到"被逼着内卷"，过去几个月，宿迁这座苏北小城的餐饮生态，在号称"史上最大"的外卖补贴战中，经历了被催熟的速生与速朽。 这里是"最激烈的战场"之一。宿迁是刘强东的老家，当地餐饮业曾率先支持京东外卖，也最早享受到京东百亿补贴的红利；淘宝闪购入局后，带来了更猛 烈的补贴力度，一直持续至今；宿迁也是美团测试业务边界的试验场，在美团核心本地商业CEO王莆中看来，宿迁是外卖大战打得最激烈的地方，"已经 打成焦土了"。在宿迁，10块钱吃顿饭已成为日常。 补贴也让宿迁餐饮业变得畸形。受消费市场和餐饮业内卷的影响，本就惨淡的堂食门店客流继续下滑，许多以堂食为主的餐饮门店生意萧条，同样受到影 响的，还有依附在餐饮业上讨生活的人们，比如代驾师傅、驻唱歌手、餐饮设备回收商。 而享受过一波补贴红利的外卖商家们发现，平台牢牢把握着流量和补贴的规则，他们被裹挟而进，不得不继续参与补贴，但在扭曲的价格里，想赚以往同 样的钱，付出的辛苦成倍增加。 宿迁为我们展示了，非理性的补贴创造的不是需求，而是泡沫。当狂欢过后，所有的参与者都要一起买单。 一、美食街上，只剩外卖骑手 7月末，宝龙后街一家蹄花店的老板陈莉关掉了她的店铺。在 ...

Core Viewpoint - The competition between Chinese companies Didi's 99Food and Meituan's Keeta in the Brazilian food delivery market exemplifies a case of "internal competition externalized," where companies focus on undermining each other rather than addressing the dominant local player, iFood [2][12][16]. Group 1: Competitive Strategies - Didi has invested 1.1 billion RMB to implement a "choose one" strategy, offering high subsidies to local merchants to prevent them from collaborating with Meituan while allowing partnerships with iFood [1][4][8]. - Didi has engaged in various aggressive tactics, including purchasing keywords to confuse search results and filing lawsuits against Meituan for trademark infringement [3][10]. - The "choose one" clause designed by Didi explicitly prohibits merchants from working with Meituan but does not restrict partnerships with iFood, indicating a targeted exclusion strategy [7][8]. Group 2: Market Dynamics - iFood has responded to the entry of Chinese competitors by announcing a significant investment plan of 17 billion BRL (approximately 22 billion RMB) to strengthen its market position [15]. - The Brazilian food delivery market is valued at approximately 12 billion USD, with Didi previously holding a maximum market share of 5% [12]. - The competitive actions of Didi and Meituan have inadvertently benefited iFood, allowing it to stabilize its market position amidst the influx of Chinese companies [15][16]. Group 3: Implications of Internal Competition - The aggressive competition between Didi and Meituan reflects a broader issue of Chinese companies adopting a zero-sum mentality, focusing on eliminating competitors rather than creating value for consumers [16][18]. - This approach risks damaging the reputation of Chinese brands in international markets and may lead to regulatory scrutiny, as seen with iFood's past penalties for similar practices [13][17]. - The article emphasizes the need for Chinese companies to shift from destructive competition to value creation and collaboration in overseas markets to achieve sustainable growth [18][19].

最近在巴西，美团的外卖业务还没上线，就被同样在巴西没站稳脚跟的中国企业滴滴"二选一"了。 事情是这样的：美团出海品牌Keeta宣布进军巴西市场，滴滴也重启了自己在巴西的外卖业务99Food。 这两个中国出海企业面对的最大竞争对手，是市占率超过80%的巴西本土外卖品牌：iFood。 其实iFood也不是正统的巴西本地企业，它由Prosus控股。Prosus是从南非报业集团分拆上市的子公司， 在国内，Prosus更为熟知的身份是腾讯的单一最大股东。 背靠Prosus大树，iFood当年就是靠"钞能力"在商户间搞"二选一"挤走了滴滴的99Food和Uber Eats。目前 iFood在巴西外卖市场一家独大，估值超120亿美元，是拉美估值最高的科技公司之一。 按照正常的商业逻辑，新入局者应该抓紧时间打造自己的差异化服务，快速抢占市场。尤其是滴滴，已 经是二次征战巴西市场了，对本土的最大竞争对手iFood应该十分了解了。 但滴滴99Food做了一个出乎所有人意料的决定：绕过老对手iFood，集中所有火力进攻新手美团Keeta， 用的还是熟悉的配方"二选一"——当年iFood用在挤兑自己身上的战术，滴滴反手用在了自己同胞 ...
