Chapter 59： first trial

"Science" editorial department.

As the editorial department of a top academic journal, the requirements for academic editors are naturally not low. Those who can enter here are basically from the major universities in the United States.

Take Owen, for example, as an academic editor, he graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Although there is no shortage of submissions at all, as a top journal, they need high-quality papers from top Daniels.

It's just that some big cows are not very enthusiastic recently, either they can't get in touch, or they vote for their old rival Nature.

Received a call from Richard today, which made him happy, but he didn't expect it to be a happy one.

"Substitute investment? But if it can be recognized by Professor Richard, it shouldn't be bad, right?"

Owen muttered, but his eyes didn't leave the computer, he kept staring at the mailbox.

He wanted to see what the content was that deserved such praise from a Nobel Prize tycoon.

"Ding dong~"

When the email was received, a light flashed in front of Owen's eyes, and he quickly opened the file.

Seeing the title, he pushed up his glasses.

Read it carefully.

Perhaps because he was too invested, Owen even forgot the time.

until……

A hand suddenly patted Owen's shoulder.

"Owen, it's lunch break, why haven't you eaten yet?"

Owen looked back and saw his colleague John.

"Is it already noon? So soon..." Owen returned to his senses, and only then did he feel the hunger in his abdomen.

Seeing this, I was so focused that time didn't notice it.

"What paper did you read?"

Owen's state made John, who is also an editor, curious. After working for so long, usually in such a situation, a very good paper appeared.

Thinking, John pulled out a chair, sat beside Owen, and began to read the manuscript.

"Diamond nano-single crystal? Is this supposed to be a new article from the National Institute of Materials Science of Sakura Country? It's a very fast progress. They just published it two months ago, and now they have made a new breakthrough?"

John didn't even think to say it directly.

After all, two months ago, the National Institute of Materials Science of Sakura Country just published an article in Science.

That article directly detonated the material science community and made everyone more confident to continue their research on the research road of photonic screens.

"It's not Sakura Country, it's a university in Huaxia." Owen shook his head and said.

This article was submitted by Professor Richard on behalf of him. As for the correspondent, the author is the same person.

A Mr. Chen Hao from a distant ancient country.

"Huaxia?" Hearing Owen's words, John suddenly felt contempt, and said with some contempt: "Huaxia's reputation in the academic circle is getting worse year by year, and I saw the news a few days ago. It's unbelievable that a famous professor is academically fraudulent!"

"Speak less, this was passed on to me by Professor Richard." Owen knew that although this colleague was okay, he was a bit racist, but it was sent by Professor Richard and should not be treated specially.

John touched his nose and asked, "Professor Richard? The one from Massachusetts?"

"Ok."

"Okay, then if I didn't say it, I'll read this article." John shrugged and confessed directly.

A Nobel Prize winner is not something that an academic editor can slander.

When Owen looked at John, he didn't say much, just a little bit looking forward to the other party's reaction.

After all, he has almost finished reading it, and the quality of this paper is absolutely fine!

"I can guarantee that this guy must have written it with water." John muttered softly.

In his opinion, that country is too feudal and not free at all. What kind of research results can such a country produce academically?

With such prejudice, John looked on. The more I saw the back, the more surprised.

Slowly, drops of cold sweat seeped out from John's forehead.

Feeling that his back was a little wet, John turned his head to look at Owen and asked, "This... the author, is he really from China?"

How much he hoped to get an answer that was not from Owen's mouth, but it was a pity that the answer was the one he avoided.

"It is indeed from China." Owen grinned.

"Are Chinese people so good?" John was reluctant to admit it, but as a rigorous academic editor, his professional ethics did not allow him to lie.

"Okay... Maybe he wrote this by accident, and he didn't have the actual finished product." John still tried to discredit Chen Hao.

"John, you've lost your editorial integrity like this." Owen was too lazy to talk to this guy.

As the first trial, he has already passed it.

The rest is for reviewers to review.

As for experts in this related field, there is still no shortage of experts.

Owen directly sent the papers to 5 academic gurus.

After that, I made a phone call.

The first reviewer invited was Professor Church of Stanford.

"Dear Professor Church, I just sent a manuscript to your mailbox, please review it as soon as possible. This paper was transferred by Professor Richard of MIT. It is urgent. I hope you can deal with it as soon as possible."

Professor Richard's name is still very useful. As long as Owen signs his name, the phone will instantly become enthusiastic.

"Respected Professor Andre..."

…………

Just when Owen called, Chen Hao also received a call.

As for the caller, he was beyond his expectations.

"Professor Richard, where did you submit my paper?" Chen Hao asked uncertainly.

"You voted for the "Science" journal, Chen, you don't really thank me If you really want to thank me, your Huaxia hot sauce is pretty good, you can just send me some by mail."

Hearing the other party's words, Chen Hao was immediately dumbfounded.

Although he asked his teacher, Professor Stephen, to find a material expert to help pass it on, he didn't expect to find it on Professor Richard's head!

"Is there any problem with "Science"?" Chen Hao was a little lacking in confidence.

After all, there are lessons learned, he is really afraid of encountering rejections.

"Chen, there is absolutely no problem with your article appearing in "Science"! I'm just curious, how is your team's research progress now?"

"Our team~ We've almost finished the research, and the finished product is coming out soon~" Chen Hao said with a haha.

Finished product?

What is the finished product?

The laboratory has not been built yet!

"Is that so? It's really shocking! I happen to be going to your Huaxia to attend an academic forum next month. After the end, can I visit your laboratory?"

"Ah... This, Professor Richard... This is confidential, so it's not convenient for the time being, I'm really sorry." Chen Hao hesitated again and again, but still refused, otherwise, how to solve it when the other party comes over.

Richard didn't expect Chen Hao's refusal, but he was not discouraged and hung up after chatting with Chen Hao for a few more words.

At the same time, Chen Chong was in front of the computer.

He stared at the screen like a torch.

Today, he is going to do something big!
