饿了么累计亏损超过1500亿？饿了么不予置评，美团表示被迫卷入外卖大战 据晚点 Late Post7月16日报道，美团核心本地商业CEO王莆中称"饿了么累计亏损超过1500亿"，直指外卖大战中的不良竞争，同时表示美团在这场大战中是 被迫卷入。目前饿了么对此不置可否。 在采访中，美团核心本地商业CEO王莆中公开披露关键数据，称竞争对手饿了么"累计亏损超过1500亿"，而阿里此次追加的500亿补贴"如同德州扑克输三把 后加注"。 面对京东、阿里先后投入近800亿掀起的混战，王莆中直言美团是"被迫卷入"，但以远低于对手的成本连续创下1.5亿单日订单纪录，揭开了行业狂欢背 后"单量翻倍，GMV可能不涨"的可能结果。 王莆中强调，美团的反击是为"揭露行业真相"。他在采访中说："用对手的方式，我们单日冲2亿单很容易，但无意义。"他认为外卖大战破坏了价格心智， 挤压行业利润，但用户留存反而极低，新增用户多为"羊毛党"，难以转化为长期客户。 王莆中警告，若战争持续，"赢家不会是参战方"，而可能如一战般"欧洲打残、美国崛起"。他呼吁对手"关注一线真相"，认为单量暴涨的背后，是"低价外 卖 VS 高价堂食"的价格扭曲，认为超时免 ...

温斯顿·丘吉尔曾经如此形容一战的爆发："一个个可怕的假设，全都凑到一起了。" 原本关系紧张的几方，往往会做最坏的打算，并认为这种打算能够让自己获胜，然而正是这些准备，最 终导向了大家都以为不会发生的第一次世界大战，欧洲最终变为一片焦土，美国日本崛起。 这句话被印在了《八月炮火》开篇，肯尼迪总统在处理古巴危机时，恰好读到这本书，据说他从中得到 了启示，最终避免了一场大战。 这也是王兴最喜欢的书之一，而在 7 月 16 号的采访里，美团最核心业务的操盘手王莆中也多次用"一 战"来类比当下的外卖大战。 这是一场愈演愈烈的战争。仅仅一个季度，参战各方就计划投入超过 500 亿元，将整个市场的单日订单 量，从年初的 1 亿单，强行推高至创纪录的 2.5 亿单。一方是投入巨资、决心"掀桌子"的挑战者，另一 方则是高调宣布战报、用 1.5 亿单日订单淹没对手的反击者。 王莆中喊话，说这样的"卷"在伤害行业，也没有意义，最终只剩下泡沫。这些言论，也被看作美团想要 停战的信号。 一边秀肌肉，一边倒苦水，意思是告诉对方，这场仗你们打不赢，费心打赢了也没用，赢来的都是泡 沫，不如专心把主业做好。 美团当然是市场主导者，王莆中也在访 ...
