Plane Honest Merchant

Chapter 40 Submission to Academic Journals

I have been busy with the robot before, and I can't take care of anything. This Friday, I finished the patent application in the morning, and there is no class in the afternoon. Wang Qin, Shi Yue, and Yan Shaojin left to prepare for the investment. Su Zhuo looked at it The weather was slightly gloomy, and I took a bus to the pedestrian street in the city center.

It is now mid-November, and the temperature in City A is basically maintained at 11-7 degrees. Su Zhuo is in good health now. Although he still looks thin, his body is not affected by the weather at all.A long-sleeved shirt and a light jacket will suffice.

The bodies of Wang and Qin also seem to be very strong. They all wore thin coats. Yan Shaojin even wore only unlined clothes. He stayed with them all day long and focused on making pet robots. Su Zhuo didn't notice the changes around him at all, and now he went shopping by himself. , Only to find that the pedestrians on the road have already put on thick winter clothes.

When Su Zhuo came to City A, his parents were afraid that the consumption would be high here and the clothes would be expensive, so they packed several pieces of his winter clothes and they were still piled up in Seventh Brother's house.Although Su Zhuo still can't keep up with the trend, he also knows that his clothes are no longer suitable for wearing. Think about buying some new clothes when he is free today.

The idea is good, but after visiting several specialty stores, Su Zhuo no longer wants to enter. City A's consumption is high, Su Zhuo can't feel it at school, at most daily necessities are a bit more expensive.Seeing the prices of those clothes, I finally realized what high consumption in the city is. The price of an ordinary cotton coat can be worth three at home, and if there is a wholesale sale on market day, it can be worth five.

Su Zhuo was not willing to buy it for himself, and finally chose two thick cotton wool coats for his parents, and went to the pharmacy to ask the salesperson there to recommend two boxes of health drinks for the elderly.

He doesn't believe in the effects of these health products, but he has the marrow washing pill in his hand, and he let the two old people eat it out of thin air.After Su Zhuo returned to the dormitory, he took out two green marrow washing pills from the ring, cut each into five small pieces and put them in the drink respectively.

The function of the green marrow washing pill is not too strong, and there is little reaction after eating it. At most, it will cause diarrhea a few times, and it will not attract the attention of parents.As long as it can play a role in strengthening the body, it is enough, and the remaining few Su Zhuo are kept for emergency use.

Put away the health drink again, fold the two cotton wool coats and put them in a cardboard box, stuff the health drink in the middle, and Su Zhuo took the things to the post office next to the school to post.At the same time, I called my parents and told them to drink it. This was bought for a lot of money and cannot be given to others.

The mother who answered the phone complained a few words about Su Zhuo's reckless spending of money, and then agreed with a smile.

After finishing his parents' affairs, Su Zhuo walked back to school, thinking about how to make money.He really doesn't have any talent for business. A student with only [-] cost and has to go to class every day, what can he do to make money?Are you going to set up a night stand?Although Su Zhuo had thought about it, some of his classmates had set up a night market, and it was said that it was very difficult to do and did not make much money.

As for the online store that I once envied, I have to guard it every day, and Su Zhuo can't do it.And there is nothing on Baibao.com, and he can't make much money doing the same now.

He has recently learned how to make a pet robot, but he has learned a lot of technical things, but it seems that he is completely useless in reality, and no one would ask him to repair the robot...

"Huh? The manuscript fee is so much?"

Su Zhuo suddenly stopped when he heard the conversation of two girls passing by.

"Yeah, I just made a review of less than a thousand words and sent it to the magazine's mailbox. I didn't expect it to be accepted soon, and the manuscript fee is so high. It's too surprising..."

Su Zhuo stood there for a few minutes, suddenly realized.Yes, he can contribute.Of course, he doesn't know how to write novels, but after learning so many advanced materials from the research institute, coupled with the guidance of Shuilu and S001, and his practical operation in the past two months, he thinks he can still make a good job of robot technology. Some summary guidance.

Moreover, when studying the research materials collected by water and land, some research projects were also found to be stuck in bottlenecks, but through other research materials, Su Zhuo had already found a solution.

He can write all these and submit them for submission.Not to mention too much, a manuscript can cost at least a few hundred yuan, so it is the best job for him to make money without cost or dealing with people.

As soon as he thought of it, Su Zhuo immediately ran to the school newsstand to buy technology magazines.But the newsstands are basically girly romance and comic magazines, and there is only one outdated "Science Journal", which Su Zhuo still pays for.

After studying it carefully for more than an hour, after reading the contents of the "Journal of Science", I found that there are basically some very specious contents.For example, "What Science Can Bring Us" and "On Space" are scientific papers that are more similar to imagination.

Su Zhuo can actually write down the main points of robot production, defects and precautions. He can't write the kind of papers that "need to be verified by us humans".He didn't understand, since he wasn't sure, so he always said "it needs to be verified by human beings in the future", so why write it out.The result is to imagine for yourself and then let others confirm it?

Since the content of the research is different, the content of this "Journal of Science" is not suitable for reference.Su Zhuo turned on the computer and found a research document.In that document, the production of the exploration robot was at a bottleneck, and the records showed that many experiments failed.

Their research direction is actually correct, only some details are missing, which Su Zhuo had already discovered when reinstalling the cleaning robot on the technological plane.

Now, based on his own thoughts, Su Zhuo actually wrote down the misunderstandings that occurred during the experiment, how his own practice was, and what steps should be taken to correct it.Of course, Su Zhuo blurred the types of robots, and some sensitive parts were also blurred, so as not to be discovered by that research institute that he had stolen their research materials.

The experimental steps of the robot, plus the theory, the reasons for the misunderstanding, the guiding direction of the correction, etc.It was just a summary of the mistakes in an experiment, without any modification of words, it was written more than 8000 words.

Su Zhuo scratched his head, worried that he had written too much, but after checking up and down, he really felt that there was nothing to delete.Su Zhuo typeset, saved, and sent out according to the email address of "Journal of Science".

Everything returned to normal again. In the past two days, Wang Qin, Shi Yue, and Yan Shaojin were discussing from time to time, basically about company construction, how to open up sales channels, market target planning, etc. Su Zhuo sat and listened once, At a loss, I don't understand at all.Wang Qin's set of marketing plans had nothing but to make him look up and be at a loss.

Then on the third day, the three started to quarrel over the name of the company, and they all pulled on Su Zhuo.Su Zhuo had no opinion on whether the name of the company was XX Technology Co., Ltd. or XXX Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. He said that everything was up to them, but the three of them continued to quarrel.The main reason was that Wang Qin and Shi Yue were arguing, and Yan Shaojin interjected from time to time.

On the fourth day, Su Zhuo's mailbox received a reply from the "Journal of Science".Su Zhuo was very excited because the other party expressed interest in his scientific paper and considered publishing it in the next issue of the magazine.

Then in the next paragraph, the other party continued to say that usually the magazine only charges 100 yuan for the page, but because his paper has a lot of content, he needs to charge 400 yuan for the page, and at the same time, part of the paper needs to be deleted, and it can’t exceed 5000 words.

Su Zhuo was stunned.Why did he have to pay for his manuscript to be accepted? Is this a deceptive magazine?

After searching the Internet, I found out that if an academic journal is adopted, it usually requires a publishing fee.Instead of receiving royalties like ordinary magazines.Of course, this "Journal of Science" is not considered a regular academic journal, otherwise Su Zhuo would have to add a review fee when submitting a manuscript.

Su Zhuo was shocked in an instant. He thought well, writing papers, submitting articles to scientific journals, and getting paid for the manuscript. How wonderful.I didn't expect to need to pay for it myself.Publishing papers in academic journals can add points to the evaluation of professional titles, but no matter how many people are willing to pay, they can't buy them.But Su Zhuo doesn’t need it. He’s only in the first semester of his freshman year, and he doesn’t have any documents in his body. He doesn’t plan to go to graduate school in the future. He will work and earn money to support his family after graduation. This kind of science magazine that pays for it is completely useless to him!

"What's wrong, Su Zhuo?" Shui Lu saw that Su Zhuo's expression was unhappy, but he couldn't understand what was wrong with this email, so he popped up the document and asked Su Zhuo.

Su Zhuo typed and replied: "Shuilu, can you check for me on the Internet, where are there scientific journals that pay for manuscripts?"

"Ok."

Half an hour later, Shuilu found more than 20 scientific magazines. According to the magazine information collected by Shuilu, most of them are foreign magazines, and only two are domestic, including several science fiction magazines.

Su Zhuo didn’t plan to look for domestic journals any more. He replied to the email from Science Journal, expressing that the paper had been withdrawn for publication in their journal. Then according to the information, he finally chose a scientific journal established in New York for three years with more formal content. Magazine "Science Future".Through Shuilu's perfect English translation, it was rearranged and organized into a text, and sent to the mailbox of "Science Future".

The next thing to do is to wait. If the paper is accepted, even if it is only a few hundred yuan, he is willing to continue writing.For him, this is the most suitable job for him. If it doesn't work, he will have to look for it again... Speaking of which, the water and land translation is so good, can he also do the job of remote translation?

Su Zhuo knocked his head and was about to discuss with Shui Lu. Wang Qin, Shi Yue, and Yan Shaojin came back together. It was rare for Wang Qin and Shi Yue to quarrel. Shi Yue was carrying a briefcase in his hand.

"Su Zhuo, come down." Shi Yue waved to Su Zhuo, put the briefcase on the table, and took out a few documents: "Come over and have a look at the contract. If there is no problem, I will sign it with a lawyer tomorrow."
