（原标题：李国庆宣布"60岁再创业"，创立新品牌重回电商一线！） 据红星资本局报道，12月15日，当当网创始人李国庆在自己的社交媒体账号发布视频作品，宣布自己60 岁再创业，重回电商一线，成立新公司"李享生活"，第一年只服务5000位优质会员。 12月16日，李国庆又发布视频表示："首批5000个会员，年消费满3万的，就是老李的朋友圈。" 目前，李国庆尚未正式开始直播，他的第一场直播定于12月18日。不过，李享生活公司的橱窗商品已有 销量，销量最高的为一款定价360元的红酒，已售95件。 天眼查APP显示，李享生活（北京）网络科技有限公司，成立于2025年9月，注册资本100万元，李国庆 的持股比例为99%。 ...

年满花甲，再披战袍！ 前当当网创始人李国庆近日高调宣布重返电商一线，正式推出全新品牌"李享生活"，誓言以30年行业积淀打造"线上高端会员店"。在一则亲自出镜的视频 中，他目光如炬、语气铿锵："我要带着30年练就的火眼金睛，重回电商一线！"此言一出，瞬间点燃舆论——这位曾因"抢公章"风波淡出主流视野的电商老 兵，竟选择在60岁这年再度创业，向品质消费新蓝海发起冲击。 然而，挑战亦不容小觑。高端会员电商赛道早已拥挤：京东PLUS、阿里88VIP、盒马X会员店等巨头环伺，而小红书、抖音也在加速布局高净值用户消费场 景。李国庆能否凭一己之力撬动用户心智？5000人的"精英圈层"是否足以支撑商业模型？供应链、履约效率、复购率等硬指标，才是真正的试金石。 更关键的是，公众对李国庆的印象仍掺杂争议。如何将"敢说敢骂"的网红人设，转化为"值得托付"的品质信任，是他必须跨越的心理鸿沟。 但不可否认，一位60岁的创业者仍愿躬身入局，本身已具象征意义。在消费降级与理性回归并行的时代，若真能兑现"低加价、高品控"的承诺，"李享生 活"或将成为一股清流。 只是，这一次，市场还会给他一张"入场券"吗？ （本文基于李国庆公开视频及声明整理 ...
