I reach the pinnacle of life by learning

A paper submitted to Biotechnology was rejected.

Lin Feng glanced at the revision comments given, and felt that the reviewers' comments were simply incomprehensible.

So he asked Qiao Yu to change to a domestic journal and resubmit.

This time the manuscript was submitted very quickly, and within two weeks, news of the acceptance came from the magazine.

Qiao Yu's paper was published in the September issue of Micromolecular Biotechnology.

At the same time, the authors who contributed to this issue of "Micro-Molecular Biotechnology" felt very incredible when they saw the author's introduction at the bottom of the paper.

The author's introduction is, Tianhai Seventh Middle School - Qiao Yu.

After checking, many people found that Qiao Yu was not even a biology teacher in No. 7 Middle School, but a freshman in high school.

It is not the first time for high school students to publish papers in domestic journals, but it is still rare.

Xie Daoan, an associate professor of Biology at Pingnan University, is one of those seeking proof.

The most important aspect of an experiment is reproducibility.

Xie Dao'an didn't believe in evil, and did an experiment according to the method in the paper, and found that this paper was really not made up.

He was curious about how Qiao Yu managed to write the paper at such a young age, but when he saw Lin Feng's name in the corresponding author, he immediately felt relieved.

It turns out that Elder Lin is supporting young people again...

However, after Elder Lin retired, he had been silent for a long time, why did he suddenly come back for such a person?

Xie Daoan couldn't figure it out, but he didn't intend to delve into it.He put down the magazine, and casually opened another journal he subscribed to, "Biochemistry and Application". Just halfway through, Xie Daoan suddenly opened his eyes wide.

In this journal, there is an article that is very similar to Qiao Yu's paper... Although the narrative methods are different, in the final analysis, they all talk about the same thing, and even the experimental steps are similar.

He looked at the author column, Tianhai University-Biological Enzyme Chemistry Laboratory-Wang Chen.

This laboratory is a provincial-level laboratory under Zhou Haining. Although the output is not much, it can be regarded as a professional background and a well-known teacher.

Journals of the same month, papers with similar content.

Xie Daoan looked at these two articles and was suddenly taken aback.

who first?after who?

When Wang Chen saw Qiao Yu's thesis, his mind went blank.

Of course, he wrote the thesis by himself. After Zhou Haining gave him advice, the progress of the experiment that had been stuck for many days suddenly went smoothly.

For this paper, Zhou Haining also expressed great enthusiasm and patience.

Although Wang Chen is an adult, he has been living in the research room of the ivory tower, and his mind is still very simple.

Because of Zhou Haining's enthusiasm these days, Wang Chen even wondered if he had been too demanding on his tutor before. After all, he is an adult, so how could he expect his tutor to take him like a primary school student?

But now, as soon as the thesis is published, Wang Chen feels that Zhou Haining's abnormality can be explained...

He contacted Zhou Haining, emotionally: "Professor, tell me, how did you think of using that material?"

Why are you in such a rush?Why the sudden enthusiasm?

Looking at this questioning, Zhou Haining felt very uncomfortable.

He didn't expect that Qiao Yu didn't continue to revise according to his opinion, but switched to other magazines.

Zhou Haining replied on WeChat: Don't get excited, come to my office in the afternoon.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Chen arrived at the office on time.

"Professor Zhou." When facing real person Zhou Haining, Wang Chen's tone was more restrained, "Can you answer my question on WeChat now?"

Zhou Haining was sitting on the boss chair, with incense burning in the office, and the old god was speaking: "Xiao Wang, don't panic. You know, many of us who do scientific research are studying the same subject, the truth is there, just look at it. Whoever finds out first."

"For example, penicillin. Before Fleming, several people made it by accident? It's just that they didn't dig it seriously... Many things in the world are simultaneous."

Wang Chen's expression was skeptical, obviously he did not believe this set of rhetoric.

"Xiao Wang, I didn't say it. You are the corresponding author and the first author of this paper. If you plagiarize," Zhou Haining shook his head regretfully, "Your future is gone. Do you want to continue?" Did you do the experiment? Do you still want to stay in school to teach? It’s not that the teacher won’t help you, you have to figure it out yourself..."

Wang Chen's resentful expression gradually became pale and helpless.

Seeing that the suppression was almost over, Zhou Haining stood up and patted him on the shoulder: "No matter what, the teacher is on your side. How do you choose, you have to think clearly and go back first."

After seeing off Wang Chen, Zhou Haining sat back on the chair.

He was actually a little annoyed, because this matter was not easy to handle.

But after all, they are old fritters in the academic circle, Zhou Haining quickly calmed down.

In terms of status, he is a professor at Tianhai University. Qiao Yu is just an ordinary high school student, and he is still very young. He obviously has a natural advantage.

Zhou Haining spent 3 hours writing a statement.

[Recently, someone in the industry told me that one of the doctoral students I brought collided with a paper published in another journal at the same time.I read it myself and found that the two papers are indeed very similar, enough to be regarded as academic plagiarism.

After knowing this, I called the students and asked what happened.

There are many graduate students under my command, and he is one of them.Ashamed to say, it is true that I did not care enough about him, so that I do not know much about the progress of related research.If it wasn't for my friend's notification, I would not have known that the research was over.

My student said that he has been working on related topics since last year and has been in the laboratory day and night, and his dedication is obvious to all.I don't believe he's the type to do such a thing.

There is a word called synchronicity, which means that when you are doing one thing, the same thing happens naturally around you.

After all the truth is out there.They may have just happened to climb the same mountain.

The author of another paper, as far as I know, is just a high school student.I can only sigh one sentence, the younger generation is awesome. 】

This statement not only distanced itself from the relationship with the research results, but also minimized the impact.

Zhou Haining felt very satisfied, and immediately contacted the editor of the journal to explain the publication.

"There are such brazen people in the world."

Facing this statement, the system expressed sincere emotion.

Not really.

The editors of the first journal did not know whether they had received money or something, but they refused to say who the reviewers were, saying that this was an industry regulation, so please don't embarrass themselves.

Strictly speaking, it is high-sounding.

Qiao Yu thought for a moment, and then contacted Zhao Yunfei, a sophomore she met in Li Chujie's open class.

Zhao Yunfei is from the Department of Mathematics of Tianhai University, and is also the chairman of the student union of the Faculty of Mathematics, so he has some energy in the school.At least it wasn't too difficult to find out where the school's biology lab was.

Qiao Yu rode a shared bicycle to the gate of Tianhai University, and was greeted with a warm hug.

"Student Qiao," Zhao Yunfei let out a hearty laugh, "Long time no see. I saw your circle of friends and heard that you won the special prize in the competition and published a paper in a foreign SCI journal. Congratulations!"

How to market yourself is also a science.

Although Qiao Yu doesn't use social software frequently, she will still post about her recent situation and consolidate her tall and tall image for everyone in her circle of friends.

The world is so big, and you read so many news every day. If you don't tell me, how will others know how good you are.

If it weren't for Qiao Yu's occasional posts that shocked ordinary people, Zhao Yunfei might not remember who he is.

After all, a high school student who can do this is enough for ordinary people to look up to.

Qiao Yu showed a gentle smile: "It's just luck, I will trouble you this time."

Zhao Yunfei was very polite and took Qiao Yu to the school's biological enzyme laboratory.

At school, there are many people who know him, and there is no obstacle along the way.Someone asked, and Zhao Yunfei also said that he was his junior, bringing him here to see the world.

It was in this situation that Qiao Yu met Wang Chen.

Tall and thin guy, he looks very calm, his eyes are so blue that he looks like Luo Zhixiang who does sports every day.

"Are you looking for me?" Wang Chen took off the mask on his face and asked, "Who are you?"

Because of Qiao Yu's good looks, Wang Chen's anger at being called out from the laboratory was temporarily relieved, and he decided to listen to him.

"Tianhai 7, Qiao Yu." Qiao Yu briefly introduced himself, and then extended a hand in a friendly manner, "Can I talk to you?"

Upon hearing this name, Wang Chen's body froze.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the milk tea shop on the second floor of the school.

It's very noisy here, because there are students you don't know around, and no one cares about what other people are saying.

Qiao Yu took out the periodicals and small papers sent back from abroad from the file bag.

"My thesis has been published on "ANTISENSENUCLEICA" in July this year, and the corresponding author and first author both have my name."

Wang Chen held the cheese milk tea in his hand, his expression became a little paler.

"So I am fully qualified to say that you plagiarized, no matter whether you have read my paper or not, the stain of academic fraud will accompany you all your life."

Qiao Yu spoke very calmly, but it was this calmness that made Wang Chen even more frightened.

This shows that the other party is fully prepared.

"I...I really don't know." Wang Chen replied, "My tutor told me how to do the experiment."

Qiao Yu interrupted him: "Your mentor is Zhou Haining."

Wang Chen subconsciously nodded.

"This paper, in China, was the first time I submitted it to Biotechnology, and he was the reviewer. Although he is your supervisor, the corresponding author does not have his name."

"So no matter what, you are the only one affected in the end, and he just unfortunately recruited a graduate student with academic misconduct. And you won't be able to stay in the laboratory afterwards."

The more Qiao Yu said, the paler Wang Chen's face became.

Because he knew that what Qiao Yu said was the truth.

The air was deadly still.

Wang Chen's thoughts were in chaos: "I...I can give you money...I'm sorry..."

He didn't mean it, he really didn't know.

Qiao Yu sighed.

Before coming, he had made two assumptions, one was Wang Chen and Zhou Haining working together; the other was the current situation.

Wang Chen is just a poor scapegoat.

Qiao Yu said: "It can be seen that you really like the laboratory. So I will give you a choice now, that is to directly report Zhou Haining and restore the truth of the matter. Although you can't return to the current laboratory."

He took out a second file from his file bag.

Just a few days ago, Qiao Yu turned eighteen and signed an agreement.

He bought a small biopharmaceutical company called "Xunan Biopharmaceuticals".

The company is located on Hong Kong Island. It is said to be a small company, but in fact it is just a leather bag company.According to official information, this company is controlled by a foreign-funded enterprise.And this foreign-funded enterprise is another layer of leather, and the actual controlling person behind it is Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu intends to put all future patents under the name of this company.

Qiao Yu kindly advised: "If you are willing to report Zhou Haining, I can provide you with a job. And I promise you that within three years, I will let you go to a bigger and better laboratory."

Qiao Yu knew what the person in front of him wanted most.

Wang Chen looked down at the contract.

Xunan Biopharmaceuticals, a company I have never heard of.The salary is 11000 a month, and he is hired as a researcher of this company.

To be honest, in Tianhai, 1.1 is not considered a high salary.

Maybe after a busy month, I still can't pay the mortgage.

But this contract gave a very favorable condition.

That is, if you have any results in the laboratory, you can submit a paper by yourself. You don't need to change the first work to someone else's name, and you don't need to look at the boss's face to publish the paper.Prizes will also be given if a paper is published.

Domestic dual-core journals reward 10000.

For foreign SCI journals, reward 10000*impact factor*1.5.

What's more, when he was under Zhou Haining's banner, he only earned a guaranteed minimum of 7000 yuan a month. Only after the papers he wrote were published could he have additional income.

Wang Chen made a decision after a while: "Okay, I'll do it!"
