Start as a top student and move towards the stars and the sea

Okay, thank you, Teacher He. I will definitely continue to work hard.

Ning Chen took the journal in his hand, opened it carefully, and found his paper.

Although Ning Chen's paper is not the most important paper in this issue of the journal, it has been given enough space, which shows that the journal still values ​​Ning Chen's paper quite seriously.

Ning Chen secretly longed to fill his study room with various journal articles he published.

Ning Chen originally thought that after his paper was published, it would not cause any stir in the school.

After all, this is just a paper in the second area. Even in the world's top academic journals such as Nature and Science, Shengzhou University can publish several articles every year.

But obviously, Ning Chen underestimated the influence of his paper.

What the hell?! Brother Chen, have you visited our school's official website?

Chen Tianpeng stared at the computer screen, so surprised that he almost spit out his rice.

Originally, Chen Tianpeng wanted to go to the official website of Shengzhou University to check the class schedule, but by accident, he saw information about academic research on the official website.

It didn't matter at this glance, Chen Tianpeng suddenly discovered that Ning Chen's name was among them.

In order to make sure that this was not another person with the same name as Ning Chen, Chen Tianpeng specifically clicked in and found that this was Ning Chen from Materials Class 0901.

What's going on? Did the Shengzhou University official website announce that Brother Chen won first place in his major last semester? Yang Yan asked.

Yang Yan felt that although Ning Chen’s achievement of getting full marks in four subjects was very impressive, this kind of thing should not be announced on the university’s official website.

It's not about the final grades of last semester, it's about Brother Chen publishing a paper. Didn't Brother Chen submit a paper before? This paper should have been officially published. Come and take a look!

With that said, Yang Yan and the former commander both came over and confirmed that what Chen Tianpeng said was indeed true.

Ning Chen also quickly found this news, and couldn't help but think about it.

According to the level of my paper, it won't be published on the official website by the school. What's more important is that I am a freshman.

Being able to independently produce research results and publish papers in SCI journals as a freshman is unprecedented at Shengzhou University.

What's more, this paper does not have any water content, but is a truly high-quality paper.

Brother Chen, what is the level of this journal Progress in Calculus of Variations? Chen Tianpeng asked.

It is a SCI second-level journal, which means one with an impact factor in the top 6% to 20%. To put it simply, it is equivalent to the level of a second-class scholarship for the final exam.

Ning Chen knew that it was difficult for Chen Tianpeng to understand the meaning of this, so he compared it with the example of scholarships.

So the first district is equivalent to a first-class scholarship?

Well, that can be understood.

That's it...The second district is also very good. People like us don't even know how to start writing a paper.

Yang Yan knew more about the paper and continued:

Actually, it's not that simple. Normally, if you want to publish a paper in an academic journal, you have to be at least a master's degree. I heard a doctoral senior from my school said that being able to publish a second-level article and a third-level article is enough to graduate with a doctorate. request.

After hearing Yang Yan's words, Chen Tianpeng reacted immediately.

So, Brother Chen is almost ready to graduate with a PhD? This...is this too outrageous?

Yang Yan also nodded in agreement. From the perspective of thesis alone, Ning Chen was indeed close to the standard of a doctorate.

The former commander no longer knew what to say. Ever since that high-level math quiz, the former commander had realized how huge the gap between himself and Ning Chen was.

Actually, this paper is not of that great value. Normally, only papers published in top academic journals can be published on the school's official website. This is more of an encouragement to me.

At this moment, the door of dormitory 208 was pushed open.

Ning Chen and the other three turned around and found the squad leader standing at the door.

Ning Chen, Director Zhang wants you to go to his office now.

Okay, I'll be there right away.

Ning Chen didn't know why the instructor suddenly came to him. Ning Chen thought it might have something to do with publishing his thesis.

Arriving at Zhang Kun's office, Zhang Kun suddenly had a bright smile on his face when he saw Ning Chen.

Ning Chen, I came here today to talk about your paper.

Ning Chenxin said that his guess just now was indeed correct.

But Ning Chen didn't know what this paper would bring to Ning Chen.

Well, Shengzhou University has a reward standard for publishing papers. As long as the paper can be published in high-level journals such as SCI, SSCI, EI, ISTP, etc., each paper will receive a reward of at least 5,000 yuan. Yours This paper is from SCI Area 2, and the bonus is 10,000 yuan.

Hearing Zhang Kun's words, Ning Chen couldn't help but feel happy.

Originally, the main reason why Ning Chen published a paper was to complete the system's tasks.

Unexpectedly, in addition to the rewards from the system, I would also get rewards from the school.

When the scholarship was issued before, you left the card number. If there is no problem, it will be issued to your card.

Okay, Director Zhang, no problem.

After comparing the efficiency of making money as a tutor before, Ning Chen felt that publishing papers seemed to be a faster way to make money.

Thinking of this, Ning Chen tentatively asked:

Director Zhang, is there any upper limit on the number of papers published in this policy?

There's no upper limit, what's wrong?

Oh, it's nothing, just asking.

Ning Chen should be able to write a few more papers on the analysis of the properties of the Sine-Gordon equation that was previously rewarded by the system.

Coupled with the possible rewards for completing system tasks in the future, Ning Chen felt that he had almost saved up the down payment for his first house.

Ning Chen, are you particularly interested in mathematics now?

While Ning Chen was thinking about this, Zhang Kun suddenly asked.

Well, I am quite interested in mathematics. In the past six months, I have studied many mathematics textbooks on my own, and I was lucky enough to achieve some small results...

Okay, stop being modest. With your current results, I don't know how many people envy you. The teacher wants to ask you, have you ever thought about switching to a mathematics major?

According to Ning Chen's current situation, as long as he performs normally in the final exam this semester, he is fully qualified to change his major.

Hmm... I have no idea of ​​changing my major just yet. In addition to mathematics, I am also quite interested in physics and chemistry.

Ning Chen knew that even if he switched to mathematics major, he would still listen to the courses he had already mastered every day, which did not make much sense.

Hearing Ning Chen's answer, Zhang Kun breathed a sigh of relief.
