上市之謎

孔少林作為終日困於觀塘的廠佬,當某日半生心血成功上市,自然興奮得沖昏頭腦,四處叫人落飛。久而久之,怕會成為《小鎮故事》入面的主人翁。

  貫徹我一向拆穿交易背後的真相,既然上市成功兼且預期反應熱烈,就讓我披露整個上市籌備過程,令大家排隊入飛時,頓覺物超所值。

  一切,要從這次上市的保薦人「上書局」之背景說起。

  這間新晉的保薦人,各名頭頭都曾經在大行共事,叱咤一時。可惜因為得罪老細,唯有一齊起身,自行開檔。

  各頭頭在行內薄有虛名,要搵deal毫無難度;加上運氣使然,讓他們找到六個有水準的目標。為求打響頭炮,保薦人決定冒險出擊,一次過將六隻同日上市。

  雖然每年書展的市場資金都非常充裕,但保薦人亦不敢怠慢,誓要將六單上市個案做得好好睇睇。所以,早在三個多星期前,已經進行路演,在各大報章零碎曝光,為今天正式開始入飛作準備。

  路演之外,保薦人亦學中國人壽(2628)找名人助陣。《原是物語》跟《國金外望》找來甚少寫文的林太親自批出墨寶,增強聲勢;而《國金外望》更絕,使出美女效應,情商林在山出山,擔任這次上市的代言人。

  能夠趕及在限期前上市成功,技術上亦出現不少驚險鏡頭。兩個專欄都有甚多不良資產,難以見人。經過一輪重組執數,終於可以用現在的架構上市。而因為時間緊迫,bulk print時錯漏百出,例如《國金外望》內,とこも寫錯,請槍替寫的那篇《開張》,分頁位置錯放。對於類似失誤,保薦人有待解釋。

  六單上市之後,保薦人仍想有以為繼,另闢網站(www.uppublications.biz),希望延續上市神話。

  網站簡陋,但因為有孔少林與方卓如的畫像,揭露身份之謎,令保薦人聲名鵲起。

方兄為何變左個啤梨人呢?
張漫畫係咪方兄親自下筆?

有讀者問:點解信報社評咁支持政府?

難道要為反對而反對?這種心態,最要不得。

信報的定位是財經報,不是反對黨報,希望讀者弄清楚,不要買錯報紙。

This blog is visited by some high school students regularly. Hence please stay away from vulgar language when expressing one's view. The use of vulgar language is uncalled for in a rational discussion. Thanks.

鄙人有問題二個如下:
一、方先生和孔先生會否現身書展現場,若會,何日何時?
二、若未能親臨書展搜購方先生大作,尊著何時「出街」?

Congratulations! Hope I can still grab a copy on 23/7.

The cartoon is funny, but not handsome enough to attract Winnie and Meilin. :p

小弟貴為閣下專欄旁邊的那位孔少林的間歇性忠實讀者﹐於昨日第一日上市大手掃貨﹐可惜到交收時先發覺﹐唔知保薦人定包銷商食水太深﹐當通街藍籌國企都係跌到七折八折時﹐你地居然夠胆死用九折派貨﹖﹗

算﹐鬼叫本書係手度仲熱辣辣。

咦﹗我明明買果本原是物語﹐撞鬼囉﹐點解變了做國金外望﹗嘩﹐兩本個包裝一模一樣﹐與超市將自家品牌混雜在其他名牌的招數如出一轍。

又算﹐鬼叫我都係閣下專欄的間歇性忠實讀者。

唉﹐掃哂幾本新書都係送得一枝Rejoice﹐貪小便宜的我早知到的話﹐就會分開六次買。

又算﹐反正我唔會用﹐今日記得拎番去送比那個會用Rejoice的單身大長今先。

點都好﹐臨尾講番句---
祝一紙風行。

九折太少啦~唔送雲妮寫真我罷買呀!

冇雲妮同美蓮現場簽名都算啦, 你本書連佢地張玉照都欠奉, 你點同周汶錡, stephy 等忽然才女撼呀 ! 我上呢度睇番 d 舊文咪得囉.

至少都攝番張林在山 poster 當係見面禮丫.

個攤位好難找, 找了半天才有

呢篇廣告係就係 hard sell 咗少少, but I like it! =D

咩話?得九折?
唔緊要,見唔到作者本人,似樣d嘅素描都有幅掛?
都冇?親筆簽名都有掛?
買得方生嘅書都係想重温你嘅大作啫!
突登去書展買你嘅大作,冇其他優惠真係會令fans失望喎。
簽多百零個名喺你d書度吖!唔該!

I totally agree with you and I search the "up publishing" in the leaflet, not found, it is under the "Asia xyz". God! I asked my friend to online to search and find the 攤位. In my opinion, next time, otherwise you got a 攤位 for selling your books under the name of UP Publishing, don't do this again. The sales volume will not increase due to this special reason and the overall sales volume will reduce as too difficult to find. I nearly give up!
