最近翻到自然堂要去港股上市的消息，这牌子算国货美妆里的老将了，一晃都24年了，跟那些靠融资猛 冲的新锐品牌比，它总透着股慢半拍的沉稳，直到这次冲IPO，才第一次把加华资本、欧莱雅这些外部 投资者请进来。 说它沉稳，其实跟它的家族底色分不开。自然堂的创始人郑春颖，早年路子也挺典型的。 上世纪80年代从东北财经大学毕业，进了辽阳市财政局，端了十年铁饭碗，后来赶上改革开放想闯闯。 2001年在上海开了伽蓝集团，也就是现在自然堂集团的前身，一开始就做了自然堂和美素两个牌子，慢 慢才扩展到护肤、彩妆、母婴护理这些领域。 从招股书能看出来，郑氏家族一直把着控制权：刚成立时郑春颖和弟弟郑春彬各持40%、60%股份； 改成股份公司后，郑春颖持55%，另外三个弟妹各持15%；到上市前靠家族信托一整合，累计控股快到 87%了。 就算IPO前引入了欧莱雅和加华资本，也只让渡了约10%股权，欧莱雅投了4.42亿元，占6.67%；加华资 本投3亿元，占4.20%，算下来自然堂估值大概71.4亿元人民币。 这种家族控股的好处很明显：不用为了短期业绩跟资本妥协，能沉下心做长期事，比如早年就砸钱研发 酵母成分、搞太空护肤研究，这在急着赚快钱 ...
