353. Chapter 353 March 20

"Tell me more specifically." Richard sat down calmly and temporarily handed over the work in his hand to student Connors.

Assistant Professor Liu was very excited and changed what Zhu Jiahao said to me and turned it into what he had worked hard to find, which specifically explained the relationship between Yang Rui and Principal Pang.

Richard said skeptically: "I haven't heard Principal Pang talk about this."

"How can Principal Pang say about this kind of thing?" Assistant Professor Liu smiled and said, "There are different national conditions, and there are naturally cultural differences."

After saying that, in order to prove that he was really trying hard to find out the news, Assistant Professor Liu gave the information Zhu Jiahao said to Richard in a secondary processing and a revision of the situation to increase the authenticity.

If Zhu Jiahao said it himself, he would not add fuel to the fire, but Assistant Liu was different. In addition to ensuring the same direction, he would add and modify Zhu Jiahao's information at will.

On the other hand, Richard only knows English and relies heavily on the translation of the people in the laboratory. To a certain extent, his life in Beijing was maintained by Chinese people who understand English in the laboratory, and there was also some sense of trust.

The content Yang Rui said to Zhu Jiahao was originally specious, but after modification by Assistant Liu, he said it to Richard in English, so the latter could only understand the carelessness.

Finally, Richard said skeptically: "If it seems normal to say that Yang Rui published a paper just to win a 'rank' in terms of time. Well... our experiment is far from the time to draw a conclusion. It is indeed a bit too fast to say that they not only came to the conclusion, but also completed the paper."

"Yes, it's impossible to be so fast. Our laboratory has good hardware conditions and many people. Yang Rui is a genius, and it's impossible to do it faster than so many of us..." Assistant Professor Liu was quite indignant when talking about genius. He had originally passed the postgraduate entrance examination, but the current postgraduate admission rate is very low. A supervisor often only recruits one or two graduate students. In order to strive for excellence, some supervisors even recruit graduate students the next year, and even dissatisfied with them. They can be said to be arrogant in the whole position. As long as a genius, it is the requirement of a professor who Assistant Professor Liu once tried to pass the exam.

Although Assistant Liu seized the opportunity to stay in school with his good English proficiency and seized the opportunity to enter Richard's laboratory this time, in terms of research, the future of master's and doctoral students is even more promising. After entering Richard's laboratory, Assistant Liu came into contact with more geniuses, such as Zhu Jiahao, who was jealous and madly capable of remembering, and Xu Anqing, the top scholar in Guangdong Province who was always praised. As for Yang Rui, his freshman life, his popularity at Peking University has long surpassed other students and junior teachers like Liu. The existence of these people made it difficult for Assistant Liu to calm down.

Richard didn't care about Assistant Liu's mood and shook his head, "We still have to admit the existence of genius. The achievements made by 25-year-old Heisenberg are something that 99% of the world's people cannot achieve in 100 years."

Assistant Professor Liu's narrow face twitched twice, and nodded with a smile.

"I talked to Yang Rui. His ideas were very clear and he should have relatively mature ideas about this issue. Therefore, it is not surprising that he made a quicker initial progress than us. However, it is also a fact that his lack of scientific research experience is very complicated and lengthy. Any problem in the middle is possible." Richard paused for a moment and said with deep emotion: "I think the most difficult part of doing large-scale research is not the research itself. Raising funds, appease investors and balancing interpersonal relationships in the laboratory is the most difficult, and these all require very specific experience. Yang Rui is still too young. I have read his papers. He has only conducted personalized experiments, did not run a laboratory, and gathered experience of multiple people to complete systematic research."

Assistant Liu guessed and misunderstood, and struggled to understand Richard's words. He raised his thumb and flattered: "You are so right. So, Yang Rui couldn't finish the big paper now." Assistant Liu was extremely eager to get affirmation. Although the news was "inquired" by Zhu Jiahao, who told Zhu Jiahao to leave the laboratory?

Academically, Richard was a very cautious person and said: "It is difficult for us to determine how far Yang Rui has thought about this issue. You know, the key points we encountered in our experiments are theoretical. Although experimental verification is required, the value of thinking cannot be ignored, especially for the determination of several mutant genes, our thinking is not mature. In these aspects, there is no difference between one person or ten people."

Richard is polite. From his perspective, this experiment is actually done by himself. Connors, an intern called from the United States, is a good executor, at most an assistant. As for other scientific research dogs, they are not considered humans at all.

Of course, even if it is just one person, Richard is confident that he can win, otherwise he would not have provoked this scientific research competition.

All of this is ultimately because Yang Rui has a weak identity and lacks fame in the scientific community.

If it were a European university professor or a local professor at Peking University, Richard might not have to steal other people's creativity, at least not so blatant.

Although it seems obvious to anyone that Yang Rui is not as strong as him, Richard will not relax his vigilance, nor will he relax because of Assistant Liu's few words.

However, as an auxiliary intelligence, Richard still thought about it and said, "If it was just a small paper, it should not be sent to "JMC".

"Medicine Chemistry." Assistant Liu read this name that he was far from reaching in his stomach twice, suppressing his burning jealousy and continued to say in English: "Maybe it was because Yang Rui published a paper in "JMC" and then thought that his small paper could be published, or that he knew a certain editor and reviewer."

"Knowing the editor and reviewer is not enough to make a simple paper without sufficient experimental support published. Without complete arguments, journals like "jmc" will not accept papers casually." Richard's tone intentionally or unintentionally belittled jmc.

The world in 1984 was in the United States, and throughout the 1980s, the American scientific research community was the strongest.

Just as Richard once said when communicating with Yang Rui, "JMC" is also a paper that ordinary graduate students cannot publish in the United States. Although it is a negative sentence, in fact, journals like JMC with four or five points influencing factors are no longer very difficult for doctoral students from prestigious American universities.

During this period, doctoral students from prestigious American universities have already focused on top journals.

For a long time, the American scientific research community occupied most of the space, leaving only some leftovers for scholars from more than 200 other countries, most of whom were still working and studying in the United States, or jointly researching with American institutions.

It is difficult for scholars outside the United States, especially developing countries, to publish a paper of four or five points.

A person can carry dry food for two or three years or three years to walk the Shu Road with supreme perseverance. However, an ordinary scholar from a developing country can spend two or three years, three or five years, or even twenty or thirty years, and may not be able to publish a paper "JMC".

In fact, in China in 1984, those who can publish JMC papers are almost always the rhythm of being admitted to associate professors after they have been in their spare time.

As a freshman, Yang Rui was able to get the freedom of students in the nearly 21st century. He would go to class if he wanted to, and skip classes if he wanted to. He broke the rules and formed a research team in Tang Ji's laboratory, and then received some school-level funds that both teaching assistants and lecturers could not get, which was also because he could get paper results that ordinary lecturers could not get.

Professor Wang Yong is willing to be honest and loves his talent.

Assistant Professor Liu was both indignant and helpless about this.

He has only published an entry-level SCI journal, which is the result of his life. It took him more than two years to exchange four or five different journals, and revise them seven or eight times, and spend several months of salary postage, which almost achieved the highest achievement in the first third of his life. However, the impact factors from 1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to 4 and 5 are not linear.

A SCI entry-level journal is ultimately a good Chinese journal and a good English proficiency. Once you get to know the hot topics, ordinary graduate students can write it. Haven’t you seen that many entry-level SCI journals in the 21st century have become private places for Chinese students, full of papers from Chinese graduate students.

However, it is a bit difficult for journals with 2-point impact factor. If Assistant Liu believes that he will work harder and spend a few years, and with some appropriate luck, he can publish a journal with 2-point impact factor, then he has no hope at all. At least in the past seven or eight years, he will not be ready to try to challenge.

Assistant Professor Liu is 27 years old this year. In another seven or eight years, he will be 35 years old, which is similar to a newly graduated doctoral student. However, in a few years, he will have the opportunity to challenge a journal with 3 points, and his potential will be almost exhausted.

Unless he can learn some real skills in Richard's lab, or he can accumulate a certain degree of qualifications and then spend time on Chinese journals.

Assistant Liu is intimate and arrogant about the papers like "JMC" that he will never be able to cling to for the rest of his life. He thinks it is a good journal in his heart, but most of the time, he thinks that it is a trick to be able to be published in "JMC" papers. The importance of journals like "JMC" must be exaggerated, just as many men always feel that she must be crying behind her back when she sees a woman in a BMW.

Assistant Professor Liu said, "Will Yang Rui deliver papers to other journals? I have seen many students who want to speculate on one manuscript. I remember that he has submitted many articles in "Biochemical System Ecology". Such papers should be easier to invest in such entry-level journals. I guess Yang Rui may not be willing to give up, so he contributed to "JMC". You probably won't pay attention to journals like "Biochemical System Ecology". It is possible that if you miss the news, it is possible."

Richard was so comfortable that he nodded and smiled, "It's possible."

"How do we deal with it?" Assistant Professor Liu took a small step forward.

"The experiment needs to be done, I'll make a few more calls, well..." Richard pondered for a moment, feeling that he should still be rewarded with Assistant Liu, so he said, "You and the interns in the same group can have a day off, take a break, come back the day after tomorrow, let's see what the situation is going on. I have a few meal coupons for Beijing hotels here, you can have a good meal and enjoy it, don't be too addicted. When you come back, it will be the time for a decisive battle."

Assistant Teacher Liu took the meal coupon with a smile, and his stomach and intestines were already moving.

Richard waited for him to leave, assigned several more tasks, and then started to make a phone call. The experiment that should have been completed by him was naturally delayed.

Time passed by silently. When Assistant Liu returned to the laboratory with a mouth full of oil, the new journal of "JMC" had been sent out from the United States.
