Qin Ke followed Lao Zheng to Principal Wen's office. Wen Jianzhao also looked a little serious. A web page was displayed on his computer screen at this time - "It is hype for high school students to publish professional academic papers in top core journals."

Is it just a show, or is there some secret behind it?"

The article did not mention the content of the paper, but only listed the data of papers published by the journal in the past two years. 60% were graduate theses, 30% were doctoral theses, and only 10% were undergraduate papers.

Moreover, the undergraduate papers were all written by senior mathematics undergraduates from the two top universities in northern Qing Dynasty, and they all had corresponding authors and first authors, that is, they were written under the guidance of tutors.

"The author is not a mathematics major, so I don't understand how brilliant this paper is. But after careful inspection, I found that this high school student's paper did not indicate the corresponding author, only the first author. This means that the paper did not have an instructor, but him

Written by one person, this is something that even the top mathematics student in his senior year at Qingbei University has not been able to do."

The article ends with a sharp question: "Can a high school student, who has never taken any undergraduate courses, reach such a level that surpasses the top mathematics students at Qingbei University by relying on self-study alone?"

“Is it because the journal has relaxed its standards to gain popularity, or is there something fishy about the paper itself?”

"Why did a journal that adhered to a century-old tradition of only accepting papers from college students suddenly, without any warning, quietly break the century-old rule and publish an academic paper by a high school student?"

“The author also noticed that this paper was ‘recommended by the editor-in-chief’, which means it failed to pass the regular collective review of the journal expert group, but the editor-in-chief insisted that it be published. This is even more intriguing.”

This article is very provocative. It does not name which journal or student it is from, but there are many keywords. What is the top journal that has insisted on "only accepting papers from college students" for a hundred years? What is the most famous high school student in the country now?

God, it suddenly aroused countless curiosity and attention.

Principal Wen switched to another page, which was the hot search interface for scarves.

“High school students publish academic papers at the top undergraduate level”

“How difficult is it for undergraduates to publish their papers in core journals?”

"Mathematics journal breaks century-old rules for accepting manuscripts for high school students"

Qin Ke: "..."

Is it possible that I made a mistake? I wrote a paper at random, intending to publish it to complete the system tasks, but it actually caused such a big sensation and controversy?

Is it a loss of morals or is it the fact that the press and self-media dare to speculate on anything just to attract attention?

Qin Ke randomly clicked on a hot search and saw a screenshot of his paper published.

So-called experts have begun to pop up above. Most of them affirm the academic value of the paper and praise it as a rare and excellent academic paper. However, they think that a high school student, even the national champion of the High School Mathematical Olympiad, actually

I doubt that I can write such a high-level academic paper.

Some undergraduate students made all kinds of sarcastic remarks:

"It turns out that centuries-old rules can be broken at will. Why, why, why? Okay, I admit that I'm upset!"

""Xia Guo College Mathematics and Practical Analysis" please explain why your acceptance requirements change at any time?"

"That is, ten years ago, the undergraduate academic papers of "Xia Guo University Mathematics and Practical Analysis" accounted for 75%, and the rest were for graduate students and doctoral students. Now the undergraduate academic papers account for less than 10%, and they still let high school students

Are you born to steal our spot?"

"Those ignorant netizens who are clamoring that there is something strange about talented high school students publishing undergraduate-level papers, let me educate you. In fact, it is very difficult for undergraduates to publish in general journals. If you can publish core papers, you can basically guarantee your graduate school. Let alone

"Xia Guo College Mathematics and Practical Analysis" is the top core journal in the country, basically no worse than the SCI in the second district! Being able to publish an article in it is a great honor!"

"That is, how difficult is it to pass "Xia Guo College Mathematics and Practical Analysis"? I am a senior in Qingmu University. There are six top math students in my class. They won the first place in the national modeling competition. Only two of them have successfully published on it.

Essay! As for high school students? I can only hehe."

""Xia Guo University Mathematics and Practical Analysis" was once a god in my heart. It tortured me thousands of times. I used to treat it like my first love. Alas, I didn't expect it to degenerate to this!"

"Oh, I feel like I have studied for nothing in the past four years, and I can't even understand a high school student's paper (dog head saves life)"

"I have been racking my brains for the past four years to publish an academic paper to ensure my research, but I have been unable to do so. Now I realize that it is because of the lack of star power."

"The math dog in the first year of graduate school said that the level of this paper is very good. I definitely can't write it by myself, but with detailed guidance from the tutor, it is possible. Can a high school student study calculus by himself and write a paper of this level? Let alone high school students.

Well, even if you are a freshman or sophomore, if you can write a paper of this level under the guidance of your tutor, I will give my knee!"

And those melon-eating netizens who don’t mind the matter are adding fuel to the flames:

"People who eat melons don't understand calculus, let alone academic papers, and they express their confusion. But according to the usual practice, if you dig deeper, it will probably be an apology from the journal, the resignation of the editor-in-chief, and then the child is still young and immature. Don't hold on to it.

So..."

"Haha, if you look up the relationship between Qin Ke and the editor-in-chief, there won't be anything intriguing..."

Of course, there are also many netizens who can support Qin Ke:

"Qin Shen is the god of learning who has set a new record in the National Mathematical Olympiad in the past century. He has been such a super genius for a hundred years. How can he write an undergraduate thesis and publish it?"

"I keep saying that it is difficult to publish in core journals. I just want to ask, is it more difficult to publish in SCI or to break the record of the Centennial Mathematical Olympiad? How many people publish in SCI every year, let alone core journals, but there is only one Qin Shen for a hundred years!

One day Qin Shen announced that he would publish the first area of ​​SCI, and I took it for granted!"

"Just making malicious guesses without any basis and waiting for you to be slapped in the face!"

"Many people said that Qin Shen's interview video was impossible, but what happened? Qin Shen used his national championship score of 301 points to slap all the doubters in the face!"

"Support Qin Shen! If you can't do it yourself, do you think genius can't do it?"

The Internet is now basically divided into three major factions: those who question journals, those who question Qin Ke, those who like conspiracy theories, those who just watch the fun and don’t take it too seriously, and those who strongly support Miracle High School’s academic god. They are very quarrelsome.

Open business.

Wen Jianzhao was also looking at these noisy comments that either questioned or supported Qin Ke. He looked solemnly and said: "Qin Ke, did you really complete this paper by yourself?"

Qin Ke nodded while listening to the notification that the task was completed. "Yes, Professor Ning Qingyun and Professor Shi just helped modify the description of some words and assisted in the typesetting."

Wen Jianzhao breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, as long as it's your real talent and practical skills. Although it's a bit unbelievable, I believe in you!"

He patted Qin Ke's shoulder hard, and his expression relaxed a lot. It's just that this paper was really written by Qin Ke, and Qin Ke was in an invincible position first.

Lao Zheng couldn't help but ask: "Qin Ke, why did you choose to submit your paper to "Mathematics and Practical Analysis of Xia Guo Colleges and Universities"? Even if you submitted it to "Mathematical Research and Exploration", which does not require the identity of the contributor,

Second-tier core journals will not attract so much attention!"

It’s hard to say that Qin Ke’s suggestion was from Professor Shi. After all, he was also focusing on "Mathematics and Practical Analysis of Xia Guo Colleges and Universities" which took a shorter time to publish.

According to Professor Shi, "Mathematical Research and Exploration" does not require the identity of the contributors, so it will receive a lot of manuscripts, and the time to review the manuscripts is long, as fast as three to five months, or as late as a year and a half.

It’s not a strange thing, and then I queue up for publication. I don’t expect it to be printed and officially released until today next year.

Qin Ke just wanted to complete the task. Where to publish it is not publishing? Naturally he didn't want to wait that long.

What's more, this is also a coincidence. If Xiao Mao, the deputy editor of "Xia Guo College Mathematics and Practical Analysis", hadn't happened to arrive in Yuanzhou, Qin Ke's paper would have been rejected in the preliminary review due to identity issues, and then he would probably switch to another university.

"Mathematical Research and Exploration" or other academic journals.

Qin Ke briefly talked about Xiao Mao's coming to Yuanzhou.

Wen Jianzhao nodded and said: "We have no control over the matter of "Xia Guo University Mathematics and Practical Analysis". Our school will issue a statement to support you. You should also be careful and try not to accept private interviews from reporters.

Don't make any extreme remarks, we will handle it appropriately."

"Okay." Just like what he said to persuade Ning Qingyun, Qin Ke did not really take the comments on the Internet to heart. Anyway, the suspicion, speculation and support of strangers online would not affect him in school.

He was just a little curious and asked: "Principal Wen, what is 'editor-in-chief's signature recommendation'?"

"This is a common practice in some journals. Only the editor-in-chief has the privilege to publish a paper by name without going through the review and approval of the expert group. He is fully responsible for the quality of the paper. Once the paper is fraudulent or the academic level is not enough, he will

They will be greatly implicated. This is to give editors-in-chief the right to discern. I heard that each editor-in-chief only has one opportunity to use this privilege once a year."

Qin Ke's originally indifferent and relaxed smile slowly faded away: "You mean... Editor-in-chief Xiao Mao is betting his future and reputation on my paper?"
Chapter completed!
