Did they actually TRY this???? ($.8 million)

Cash and Stock Transactions Position ZiaSun
In the Burgeoning Electronic Book Publishing Marketplace
SOLANA BEACH, Calif., July 19 /PRNewswire/ -- ZiaSun Technologies
Inc. (OTC
Bulletin Board: ZSUN) (www.ziasun.com), a diversified holding
company, with
equity interest in several emerging-technology businesses, today
announced it
has successfully completed the acquisition of Asia PrePress
Technology Inc.,
a privately-held company headquartered in Maryland, which provides
electronic
book publishing services, document conversion and data entry
services.
The Company acquired Asia PrePress Technology Inc. by paying the
selling
shareholders in cash and restricted common shares of ZiaSun, in
exchange for
100% ownership of their company. Asia PrePress Technology Inc. is
expected to
contribute more than $.8 million in revenues to ZiaSun in the
current fiscal
year alone.
Allen D. Hardman, ZiaSun's President and Chief Executive Officer,
stated,
"After examining the global Internet landscape, and recognizing the
enormous
growth potential of electronic publishing services we began
searching for
ideal emerging-growth companies within this burgeoning sector.
Hence, we are
pleased to welcome Asia PrePress Technology Inc. into the Company's
growing
portfolio of Internet-based companies. Asia PrePress Technology's
proven
management expertise, streamlined and profitable operations and
well-established customer base provides the essential ingredients
for
continued profitable business growth and development."
Patrick Cox, the President Asia PrePress Technology Inc. commented,
"The
entire book industry has been avidly watching how electronic
distribution is
changing the face of traditional publishing, production and
distribution
business models. Because many experts agree that the electronic book
industry
is poised to flourish into a $2-$3 billion industry by 2003, it
seems that
everyday there is another major book publisher, book retailer or
technology
device manufacturer rushing in to meet the needs of this growing new
mass
market. Coupling Asia PrePress Technology's Philippine-based,
around-the-clock electronic book operation with the enhanced sales,
marketing
and financial resources brought to the table by ZiaSun, we believe
we can
rapidly expand our electronic book production business."
In conclusion, Hardman said, "ZiaSun is very excited about the
addition of
Asia PrePress Technology Inc. to its growing subsidiary portfolio.
In
addition to the promising future growth, Asia PrePress Technology
Inc. will
also complement our other portfolio holdings. By cross-marketing
products and
