Chapter 1052 No, thank you

Researchers from the Genetic Engineering Laboratory are all staring at the journal "Chinese Animal Husbandry and Veterinary" to see whether Wang Zi'ang's article can be published.

Although the influence factor of Chinese journals is not good compared to foreign journals, for Chinese researchers who do not understand English, first-class Chinese journals are already quite satisfactory results.

Now it is not the future. If it is 20 years later, let alone full-time researchers, even students in universities will try their best to publish English journals. Everyone's eyes are also focused on English journals. It is rare to check Chinese when looking up documents. It will take another 10 years before good Chinese journals can be reborn and gain attention again.

However, in the 85 Chinese academic community, it is natural to read Chinese journals and publish papers in Chinese journals.

It should be said that this is also the gap between the two eras. Researchers in 1985 are mostly focused on domestic goals. After their work lasted for 20 years, Chinese people are qualified to focus on foreign goals and go uncontrollable. There are more than 200 countries and regions around the world. Before China's scientific research level reaches China's table tennis level, no one can ignore the intellectual labor of other 6 billion people.

However, in the autumn of 1985, neither Gu Qiang nor Sun Zhengchu had to worry about the intellectual labor of other 6 billion people, and the two sides had almost no intersection.

The same is true of the papers they write.

It can be said that all the studies in the genetic engineering laboratory, except for the gender identification, have been particularly beautiful in foreign research.

These simple introduction of technical papers are also the main reason why Yang Rui looks down on them.

It's just one or several articles in domestic journals, and it's also an animal husbandry category. It's an influencing factor. There are almost no ones that can reach 1.0. Even if others don't write it, Yang Rui himself is too lazy to write it.

However, the gender identification part was an experiment done by Yang Rui alone, which is another matter.

In the next few days, Yang Rui was doing his own research and then guiding the papers to other researchers.

Don’t look at the genetic engineering experiment? The researchers in the school are all young and middle-aged scholars selected by Yang Rui, but not Ouyang Shi, including Gu Qiang, they are basically half a bucket of water.

Fortunately, the current researchers at least have a good attitude and are willing to learn, but the progress is quite fast. At least, they are much more efficient than Yang Rui's senior brothers when he was studying for graduate school.

In a few days, someone's paper was reviewed again.

Sun Zhengchu waited for a while, but finally waited for himself.

Early in the morning, Sun Zhengchu put on his shirt and obediently came to the genetic engineering laboratory, waiting to meet with the editor of the Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine.

This is of course an unusual situation. Normal submissions are carried out through the post office. The round trip time is long, but the cost is low. The most important thing is that the editors of the journal are originally irresponsible in reviewing manuscripts, and meeting the authors of the paper is meaningless.

The notice from the Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine is somewhat confusing, but Sun Zhengchu still attaches great importance to it.

This is not the first time he has published a paper, but it is the first time he has published such a high-end paper.

Compared with the "Chinese Animal Husbandry and Veterinary" that Wang Zi'ang will publish, the "Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine" has a greater influence. If measured by the influence factor, the latter will be about 0.2 more than the former, and if expressed as a percentage, it will be 30% more.

Although influence cannot be measured in such a way as numbers, for animal husbandry journals, this is the top data. If you want to improve it, it is the industry, not the journal itself.

The status of "Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine" in the industry has also risen. Sun Zhengchu doesn't mind showing two more smiling faces. In fact, when he stood in front of the experimental table, he was about to laugh. He didn't want to show a smile, but he couldn't stop smiling.

Fortunately, Zheng Xiu, editor of the Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine, came very early, so Sun Zhengchu would not have smiled.

"Researcher Sun." Yang Rui called someone with his position to show respect.

Sun Zhengchu tried hard to bridge the cracked mouth back, and walked a few steps with his hands and feet before adjusting after someone reminded him.

"Mr. Zheng Xiu is the owner of the Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine." In the simple reception room, Yang Rui introduced to the two: "Researcher Sun Zhengchu is the backbone of our Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory. The author of this non-surgical embryo collection method is Researcher Sun Zhengchu."

"I have long admired Daming." Zheng Xiu threw out his good words casually, grabbed Sun Zhengchu's hand, shook it tightly, and said, "I'm really embarrassed, so I'm taking the liberty to visit."

"No, why are you taking the initiative..." Sun Zhengchu was so anxious that he didn't know what to say. He was a young researcher from a local university and had never seen such a situation.

Yang Rui coughed and said, "I am taking it as a rude, I am making such a request..."

"Look at what you said, serving researchers is our job." Zheng Xiu said as he gave out the person behind him and said, "Let me leave the article to Professor Mao Chengshuang to read."

Only then did Sun Zhengchu notice that the man who came with Zheng Xiu was about the same age as him, but he had the smell of a familiar laboratory.

"Okay..." Yang Rui replied, and after a while, he returned to Sun Zhengchu's ear and reminded: "Researcher Sun, your paper."

"Ah? Oh... OK, I'm putting it on the table." Sun Zhengchu wanted to cry a little, why am I so nervous?

Yang Rui smiled and said, "You go and get it first, don't worry."

"Oh, okay." Sun Zhengchu calmed down and quickly returned to his experiment table. He took out his own kraft paper bag from the locked drawer. He took a look around and then came back. At Yang Rui's instructions, he handed it to Zheng Xiu, and then watched Zheng Xiu hand it over to Mao Chengshuang.

This process stabilized Sun Zhengchu's emotions.

People were calm, but Sun Zhengchu felt a little embarrassed. He cared too much about this matter, so he was confused. Seeing that the paper was handed over, Sun Zhengchu looked at Mao Chengshuang's appearance of reading his paper seriously, and then recalled the whole thing, and suddenly asked Yang Rui incomprehensible: "What are we doing?"

"Please review your paper by the journal." Yang Rui replied naturally.

"Review the paper..." Sun Zhengchu repeated the comments, and asked even more incomprehensible: "Preview in person?"

Not to mention in-person review, paper review should have been double-blind, which means that the reviewer does not know who the paper he reviews is, and the person being reviewed does not know who will review his paper.

However, this double-blind paper review is ideal, not only difficult to implement, but is actually abandoned by many journals.

Because peer review is a new game within a small circle, when papers outside the circle come in, they will naturally be peer reviewed in a strict way, but how can papers within the circle ensure true double-blindness?

For example, there are only a few research institutes in the country that can achieve high levels. One or two research institutes are also one or two researchers in charge of the project. The researchers in charge of the project are even more famous. Unless they find a few scholars who are not in the animal husbandry circle for peer review, double-blindness is just a self-deception, but instead they are full of ills.

Because of this, most journals and institutions can just avoid the direct social relations of the person being examined. For example, if they have relationships such as senior brothers and seniors or colleagues in the same school, they will actively or passively not do peer reviews, which will basically meet the requirements.

Otherwise, some small circles have only a few dozen high-end scholars. It is a problem to look outside the circle and not be able to understand it. In fact, many journals that perform double-blind reviews will create such problems and hand over animal husbandry papers to medical professors for review. It sounds like they are doing biology, but in fact they are two blind people playing *******.

I don't know what I'm touching.

However, the paper review can be relaxed, but what the hell is it for face-to-face review?

Sun Zhengchu looked at Yang Rui, with a confused look on his face, and was filled with anxiety.

He doesn't want any strange things to his paper.

Yang Rui shrugged and said, "Yeah, it's a bit unruly. But isn't our paper being asked to be revised? This way, it won't be up to the deadline. I asked Editor-in-Chief Zheng Xiu whether I can find a way to speed up the review process."

Sun Zhengchu's paper was not reviewed once, but was asked to be revised.

This is very normal during the publication of the paper. In fact, Sun Zhengchu was originally very happy to get the revision opinions in just a few days.

However, looking at Yang Rui's expression, Sun Zhengchu had to ask: "What about it?"

"Then..." Yang Rui coughed and whispered: "Then, after listening to my reasons, Editor-in-Chief Zheng Xiu agreed and suggested that it might be possible to conduct a face-to-face review. Professor Mao Chengshuang was specially invited by Editor-in-Chief Zheng Xiu, which is fully qualified for the review. Therefore, if he says he can, your paper will be reviewed. Even if it doesn't work, he can also make a face-to-face revision. In this way, even if we make another revision, we will be able to meet the deadline."

Sun Zhengchu was so stupid that he heard this. Does such a considerate journal company sell cotton jackets?

"What is the reason you raised?" Sun Zhengchu was both curious and really strange.

Yang Rui didn't react for a moment and said softly "happy" from his nose.

Sun Zhengchu repeatedly asked: "You said that after hearing your reasons, Editor-in-Chief Zheng Xiu recognized them very much. What is the reason you gave?"

"Oh, I said that if the paper is not published, the researchers in our laboratory cannot work with peace of mind, which greatly affects my scientific research progress. After listening to it, Editor-in-Chief Zheng Xiu wanted to help me." Yang Rui said it naturally.

Sun Zhengchu's thinking was disordered when he heard this, and he couldn't help but say, "Is this a reason?"

Which laboratory researchers are not like this? Could it be that you have not published your paper yet?

Besides, what is it to be able to catch up with the deadline? Journals are not a place to write novels, so there is no concept of a deadline at all. Especially for large journals like the Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine, their manuscripts have to be queued for a few months, and some unlucky small papers, so they have to queue for half a year or even nine months later.

On-site review of the publication of that month?

Even a weaker academician can't do this...

When Sun Zhengchu thought of this, he noticed that Yang Rui looked at him again, and suddenly felt uneasy.

The Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory seems to be very promising...

Speaking of which, in terms of the domestic environment, a large project like cow embryo transfer seems to be considered academician level.

The more Sun Zhengchu thought about it, the more excited he became, and his face turned red.

"Yeah, there is no problem." At some point, Mao Chengshuang finished reading the paper, stuffed it back into a kraft paper bag, handed it back to Zheng Xiu, nodded to Yang Rui, and began to fill out the form.

Zheng Xiu put away his things, shook hands with Yang Rui, and then held Sun Zhengchu's hand tightly, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Researcher Sun for choosing the Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine. Next week, you should be able to see your masterpiece."

"No, thank you." Sun Zhengchu was very excited.

"thank you."

"Thank you."

"Thank you." The two of them shook their hands, shook them around, their faces were red and their skin was flushed.
