基于电商红利崛起的三只松鼠惊讶地发现，自己正在被流量抛弃。在成立的第九个年头，三只松鼠决定和过去的自己告别。

三只松鼠CEO章燎原最近的日子不好过，1月30日本应是他的大喜之日，这一天三只松鼠的线下门店数终于突破1000家。发力线下是整个2020年三只松鼠最重要的战略，在300多天的时间里三只松鼠新开门店642家，这相当于2019年新开门店数的2.5倍。

但章燎原的好心情被资本圈提前浇了一盆冷水。1月29日，三只松鼠第二大股东NICE GROWTH LIMITED及第四大股东GAO ZHENG CAPITAL LIMITED宣布减持公司股份约1250万股，减持股份占公司总股比为3.12%。

大股东减持对章燎原来说并非新鲜事。自2020年9月开始，分别隶属于IDG和今日资本的NICE GROWTH LIMITED、LT GROWTH INVESTMENT IX（HK）LIMITED等三只松鼠股东已经通过连续减持累计套现近10亿元。随之而来的是三只松鼠股价的暴跌，在2020年5月达到91.59元的历史高点后，到2020年12月底三只松鼠股价腰斩、市值缩水一半。
