Rebirth of the God-level Xueba

"Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory."

"Have you received their submission?"

"I haven't seen it yet, how about you?"

"No, but Director Mei from Zhongmu has already called, so it's hard to refuse."

"That's right, I also received a call from Director Mei."

"Why is Zhongmu so active?"

"They're crazy about wanting embryo transfers from cows."

"I don't know what Yang Rui's thesis is about."

"It can't be regarded as Yang Rui's thesis, it is the researcher under him."

"This is troublesome. If Yang Rui signs it, blindfolded, I will approve it for him."

"Yang Rui should be the corresponding author."

"The corresponding author is not the same as the first author after all."

Three editors of animal husbandry journals sat together and naturally talked about Yang Rui and his genetic engineering laboratory in Haidian District.

The academic circle is very small, the biological circle is even smaller, and the animal husbandry circle is naturally small.

The national journals of animal husbandry add up to thirty or fifty volumes. If the local journals for self-entertainment and little-known university special journals are removed, they are eligible to be regarded as academic journals, and they can be counted with one or two hands. , there are only about ten core books, and most of them are concentrated in Beijing.

Even periodical offices that are not located in Beijing or Beijing will eventually have to set up a branch in the capital, which is not only convenient for information exchanges, but more importantly, most of China’s academic resources are concentrated in the capital, and the Beijing branch can easily communicate with the academic circles in the capital. comminicate.

Zheng Xiu from the Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine, Kong Xinde from China Animal Husbandry Magazine, and Zhang Xiangmiao from China Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine all graduated from Beijing Agricultural University and are in the same industry. They naturally walked together and sat up from time to time to exchange information with each other.

Beijing Agricultural University is the predecessor of China Agricultural University. In 1985, it is considered one of the best universities in China. Its origin is very good first of all, it was formed by the merger of Peking University Agricultural College, Tsinghua Agricultural College and North China University Agricultural College. In 1954, a total of six key universities were approved across the country, and North Agricultural University was one of them. By the reform in 1984, a total of ten key universities had been approved nationwide, and Beinong was still one-tenth.

After graduating from such a school, it should be said that it is a bit of a disadvantage to be assigned to the periodical agency. As far as the periodical agency is concerned, Zheng Xiu, Kong Xinde, and Zhang Xiangmiao are undoubtedly reserve cadres, and they are even described by the tiger class. It's all right - make up for the gaps, and it's almost inevitable to go straight to the sky.

It is also because of this that all three of them have a strong elite awareness that the society is their home, and the development of the journal and the industry is their responsibility—if nothing happens, they have a great chance of becoming the boss of the journal.

This time the gathering was held entirely for the Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory.

For the animal husbandry circle, Yang Rui is well-known. Although he has not published a paper, but in the biological and academic circles, there are few people who don't know about Yang Rui.

The Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory is at the other extreme.

City-level laboratories are actually the lowest level of research institutions. District-level laboratories in Beijing are equivalent to municipal-level laboratories at the prefecture-level city. In economically developed places, such research institutions can't actually research anything.

The thesis level of district-level laboratories is usually lower than the lower limit.

Therefore, when encountering a more influential journal, seeing a city-level or district-level name, it was directly rejected.

Similarly, researchers in district-level laboratories who are a little more knowledgeable will not touch this mold.

In terms of fairness and justice, respect and being respected, this way of doing things is naturally not acceptable. However, the real society is not a relationship of fairness and justice, respect and being respected.

Moreover, for editors of journals above the average level and editorial board members who are peer-reviewed, reading journals of district-level laboratories is indeed a waste of time.

The one-year funding for your laboratory is on average, maybe not even 500 yuan, let alone a laboratory. Subscribing to journals and professional books in this industry is not enough, so why write papers?

For example, Yang Rui's Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory, with Yang Rui's huge name, finally added the infrastructure cost, and got 60,000 yuan in funding. It's two or three thousand yuan, definitely not more than 5,000 yuan.

As a laboratory with no accumulation, it is really impossible to make anything with this money. Buying a high-magnification microscope can make you blind.

Ordinary district-level laboratories may not even get one-tenth of this money, that is, they just live with a brand.

Top laboratories in fields such as the Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine, China Journal of Animal Husbandry, and China Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine naturally keep a respectful distance from such district-level laboratories. Even if one or two papers meet their admission standards, Zheng Xiu et al. , is also to be rejected.

The same is true for foreign journals. If you want to build word of mouth, the first task is to distinguish between classes.

Municipal laboratories are the bottom class of Chinese research institutions.

However, Yang Rui is the highest class among Chinese researchers.

Ordinary academic bureaucrats or civil servants have no way of understanding this point, but there is no one in the circle who does not know this.

The combination of Yang Rui and the genetic engineering laboratory of Haidian District has become a difficult problem to solve.

It seems reasonable to judge by the quality of the paper.

Judging the quality of papers is a very difficult problem.

Obviously bad papers and obviously good papers are not scratching your head, however, most of the papers are actually partial to the middle-of-the-road.

In other words, it is always a common phenomenon that the data in the paper is doubtful, the arguments and evidence are doubtful, and the conclusions of the paper are not convincing.

There are three peer reviewers, two of whom agree and the other opposes, even more often.

None of this will affect normal papers. However, when the paper is high-profile, the pressure on the editors is great.

The editors themselves do not understand academics, but they are the ones who ultimately decide whether the paper can be published. In this way, the so-called moderate dimension becomes wider.

Zhang Xiangmiao is the most sensitive to this issue. After drinking half of the tea, he said in distress: "Yang Rui is not easy to talk to. Think about what he has done before. I heard that the deputy head of Haidian District was killed by him. After the rectification, he is still a member of the Lu family."

"Let's hear it." Zheng Xiu didn't particularly care about these secret histories of officialdom.

Zhang Xiangmiao knew his character, so he only asked, "Guess what I'm most afraid of?"

"What are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid that Yang Rui will take our previous papers and compare them with his papers." Zhang Xiangmiao said coldly, "If he writes another review, we will have to suffer.

Both Kong Xinde and Zheng Xiu gasped.

Journals are academic, but not entirely based on academic judgments. There are probably no journals in the world that can do this.

However, in China in the 1980s, periodicals based entirely on academic judgments could not survive. It was the most common situation for someone to ask for help, and bribery or explicit purchase of pages was not uncommon. Academic misconduct, there are also journals.

A better journal agency just ensures that most of the papers in its own journals are above the standard. That's it, but it also faces the situation that its own capabilities are insufficient, or peer-reviewed scholars are bribed.

Therefore, the past papers of any periodical agency can be described as mixed, but it is just a matter of going online and offline.

Such things can be said to be open secrets in the field of journals, not even secrets.

However, it is also the emperor's new clothes. If any company's transparent coat is uncovered, it will be a spoonful of torrential rain in an instant.

Kong Xinde twitched slightly, and said: "He dare not, how many people will be offended by this?"

"How many people can be offended is just a few of our journals. What is he afraid of?" Zhang Xiangmiao said slowly: "Yang Rui's papers are all published abroad, and he doesn't have to care about our domestic journals. What do you think, besides, if he wants to publish a paper in a Chinese journal, do you dare to refuse?"

Kong Xinde was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Don't say no, I have to find someone to pick up the manuscript."

"So, if he, I mean, if he wants us to record his lab's manuscript according to the minimum requirements, what should we do?" Zhang Xiangmiao said, "Everyone is watching."

Kong Xinde was speechless for a moment.

Zheng Xiu moved his mouth, thinking: "He did this, not only offending us, if he pointed out which of your papers is of poor quality, it would not offend the author to death."

"It's not easy to pick up a few soft persimmons."

Zheng Xiu was speechless. Some scholars spent their own money and asked others to find them in order to evaluate their titles. There are inevitably many soft persimmons.

Kong Xinde writhed uncomfortably, and said for a while, "Speaking of which, are we still afraid of him?"

"Aren't you afraid?" Zhang Xiangmiao asked.

Kong Xinde was speechless again, and he said after a long time, "He won't think of what you said."

"He might not have imagined, where are the researchers under him?"

"If he does this, he will become a master of biology? Whose paper he wants, we have to let his paper be included?"

Zhang Xiangmiao poured a pot of tea very hot, took two sips, put it down, and said, "Isn't he?"

The three of them lost interest in talking, and there was only the sound of drinking tea in the room.
