精彩書評:
“《門口的野蠻人》是值得企業傢和銀行傢閱讀的書。想要進入企業界和銀行界的年輕人也應該讀這本書。警惕門口的野蠻人。貪婪意味著毀滅,腳踏實地乾實業纔是正路。” ——劉妹威 財經大學中國企業研究中心主任,研究員
“如果你想深入地觸摸華爾街的脈搏。它作為一個必讀的課本當之無愧。” ——房西苑知名投融資專傢,著有書《資本的遊戲》
“由於這個案子幾乎匯集瞭所有的華爾街大投行(如所羅門兄弟、摩根士丹利、高盛等公司),所以這場收購戰夠經典的。書中給人印象較深的是貪得無厭的公司管理層。如果讓他們MBO的話,讀者會很不痛快。其實,這本書也可以作為席捲中國大地的MBO熱潮的教科書,讓人們真正清楚認識到MBO在什麼條件下纔能發生,尤其是它需要透明公正。這就是引來競爭團隊競價交易。” ——張誌雄《投資理財經典55本》
A #1 New York Times bestseller and arguably the best business narrative ever written,Barbarians at the Gate is the classic account of the fall of RJR Nabisco. An enduring masterpiece of investigative journalism by Bryan Burrough and John Helyar, it includes a new afterword by the authors that brings this remarkable story of greed and double-dealings up to date twenty years after the famed deal.The Los Angeles Times callsBarbarians at the Gate, “Superlative.” TheChicago Tribune raves, “It’s hard to imagine a better story... and it’s hard to imagine a better account.” And in an era of spectacular business crashes and federal bailouts, it still stands as a valuable cautionary tale that must be heeded.
Review
“It’s hard to imagine a better story... and it’s hard to imagine a better account” —Chicago Tribune
“A superlative book...steadily builds suspense until the very end.” —Los Angeles Times Book Review
“The fascinating inside story of the largest corporate takeover in American history… It reads like a novel.”—Today Show
“The most piercing and compelling narrative of a deal to date.”—Boston Globe
“Impressive qualities... delicious scenes... a cinematic yet extraordinarily careful book.”—Ken Auletta,New York Daily News
對於那些不懷好意的收購者,華爾街通常稱之為“門口的野蠻人”。《門口的野蠻人》是迄今為止極具影響力的商業書籍之一,兩位《華爾街日報》的記者憑藉人脈和技巧,令當事人吐露真言,獲取瞭一手的資料,再輔以引人入勝的妙筆,曝露齣那場華爾街金融目前規模少見的收購——1988年KKR公司收購雷諾茲-納貝斯剋集團的來龍去脈,以及華爾街金融操作的風風雨雨。
書的前半部交待齣主角們的發傢史,儼然是美國經濟浮世繪;後半部情節緊張,宛如懸疑小說。其間,華爾街的大亨們爾虞我詐,故事充滿金融交易、輿論壓力、決策博弈、社交晚宴和董事會議,不僅讓讀者見識到如此重大的收購在高層之間是如何運作的,也讓我們看到一部充滿洞見的金融社會史。
在目前十大並購中,有九件都發生於近年,唯有這場收購發生於20年前,足見它的重要性。許多知名商學院如今仍把《門口的野蠻人》作為教材,講述從商業倫理、公司理財到投資銀行學的主題。更有相關電影與紀錄片。
在20周年紀念版中,作者又重新拜訪瞭這場世紀收購的勝敗雙方,追蹤餘波,記敘參與者後續的成敗榮辱,幫助人們更好地瞭解這場收購對世界的影響。
The fight to control RJR Nabisco during October and November of 1988 was more than just the largest takeover in Wall Street history. Marked by brazen displays of ego not seen in American business for decades, it became the high point of a new gilded age, and its repercussions are still being felt. The ultimate story of greed and glory, Barbarians at the Gate is the gripping account of these two frenzied months, of deal makers and publicity flaks, of an old-line industrial powerhouse that became the victim of the ruthless and rapacious style of finance in the 1980s. Written with the bravado of a novel and researched with the diligence of a sweeping cultural history, here is the unforgettable story of the takeover in all its brutality.

Ross Johnson was being followed. A detective, he guessed, no doubt hired by that old skinflint Henry Weigl. Every day, through the streets of Manhattan, no matter where Johnson went, his shadow stayed with him. Finally he had had enough. Johnson had friends, lots of them, and one in particular who must have had contacts in the goon business. He had this annoying problem, Johnson explained to his friend. He’d like to get rid of a tail. No problem, said the friend. Sure enough, within days the detective vanished. Whatever the fellow was doing now, Johnson’s friend assured him, he was probably walking a little funny.
It was the spring of 1976, and at a second-tier food company named Standard Brands, things were getting ugly. Weigl, its crusty old chair-man, was out to purge his number two, Johnson, the shaggy-haired young Canadian who pranced about Manhattan with glamorous friends such as Frank Gifford and “Dandy” Don Meredith. Weigl sicced a team of auditors on Johnson’s notoriously bloated expense accounts and collected tales of his former protégé’s extramarital affairs.
Johnson’s hard-drinking band of young renegades began plotting a counterattack, lobbying directors and documenting all the underlying rot in the company’s businesses. Rumors of an imminent coup began sweeping the company’s Madison Avenue headquarters.
Then tensions exploded into the open: A shouting match erupted between Johnson and Weigl, a popular executive dropped dead, a board of directors was rent asunder. Everything came to a head at a mid-May board meeting. Weigl went in first, ready to bare his case against Johnson. Johnson followed, his own trap ready to spring.
As the hours wore on, Johnson’s aides, “the Merry Men,” wandered through Central Park, waiting for the victor to emerge. Things were bound to get bloody in there. But when it came to corporate politics, no one was ready to count out Ross Johnson. He seemed to have a knack for survival.
Until the fall of 1988 Ross Johnson’s life was a series of corporate adventures, in which he would not only gain power for himself but wage war on an old business order.
Under that old order, big business was a slow and steady entity. The Fortune 500 was managed by “company men”: junior executives who worked their way up the ladder and gave one company their all and senior executives who were corp
