Li Xiang hurriedly came to the printing office on the Xiaguo Academy of Sciences campus.
What Li Xiang didn't expect was that the copy shop, which usually had no people at all, was actually overcrowded today.
Many people were queuing anxiously, and the owner of the print shop kept explaining: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, our machines and equipment here are limited, please be patient."
The proprietress of the print shop just smiled and collected the money one by one.
Everyone was charged 500 yuan.
In just a few minutes since Li Xiang came to the printing shop, he saw the proprietress collecting money from at least 10 people.
That is at least 5,000 yuan.
Such crazy income is staggering.
In this era, the pixels of mobile phones are not high, and the text after copying is even more unclear. Otherwise, how could a piece of information be so profitable?
You must know that in 2008, the salary of most people in Yanjing was only two to three thousand yuan.
Li Xiang is studying as a graduate student at the Xiaguo Academy of Sciences, and his monthly living expenses are only five to six hundred yuan.
The printing press is printing rapidly.
The printed ones are all published by "Acta Biology" sponsored by Xia Academy of Sciences.
Li Xiang felt that what the printing press printed was not academic journals, but banknotes.
Li Xiang looked at the printing machines and started to smoke.
One printing press even ran out of ink, and the boss was sweating profusely to refill it.
Li Xiang suddenly felt that the book had its own Yan Ruyu, and the book had its own golden house.
What the ancients said is true.
Knowledge can be exchanged for money.
Academic journals such as "Acta Biology" sponsored by the Xiaguo Academy of Sciences have been basically ignored for a long time in the past.
This kind of academic journal was given to colleges and universities, and many colleges and universities accepted it because of the reputation of the Xia Academy of Sciences.
But when you turn around, you will throw these journals into the trash can, or sell them directly as scrap.
The scrap recycling businessman was extremely happy because these journals had not even been opened.
But today is different.
Today, because of a paper published by Changtian Technology in Acta Biologica Sinica, the value of Acta Biology Sinica, which was previously regarded as rubbish, increased several times in an instant.
Not only was it sold out, but copies were also printed.
This is the power of knowledge.
Li Xiang waited for at least more than 40 minutes and finally got a copy of Acta Biologica Sinica.
In this issue of Xia National Academy of Sciences, in order to highlight Changtian Technology's paper on the ability of microorganisms to use organic matter to generate electricity, there is only one paper in the entire journal.
Thinking of spending 500 yuan to buy these thin pieces of paper, Li Xiang still felt a little painful.
What left Li Xiang speechless the most was that many words on the copy paper were still unclearly printed.
The main reason is that the ink marks are not clear, and I don’t know whether it is a problem with the ink or the toner cartridge.
Li Xiang took the version in his hand and went to his boss: "Boss, you can't print it clearly!"
The boss is very busy now. This may be a once-in-a-lifetime business. It is better than the business when students come to shrink and print cheat sheets for final exams.
He said impatiently: "Do you want it? If not, I will refund the money!"
Before the boss finished speaking, a student came over and snatched the photocopied journal from Li Xiang's hand.
"If you don't want it, just give it to me!"
Li Xiang was startled and quickly retracted his hand.
He carefully read the words on several copies. Although they were not very clear, he could barely make them out.
I thought that by giving this thing to Alice, I could go have coffee with Alice on Saturday.
Li Xiang himself is quite happy.
Li Xiang called Alice, and the two parties agreed to meet immediately at the gate of the Xiaguo Academy of Sciences.
After making the phone call, Li Xiang felt a little confused.
Because many boys want to ask Alice to meet, Alice refuses with various excuses.
But this time, it was already very late, 10:00 pm, and Alice was still willing to come out and meet her.
Maybe this is... the power of love?
Li Xiang opened his mouth happily, not realizing that his saliva was already flowing down.
Within a few minutes, Alice had arrived at the gate of Xia National Academy of Sciences.
She was very happy when she saw the photocopied version of "Journal of Biology" in Li Xiang's hand.
After getting the biology journal, Alice blew a kiss to Li Xiang and left immediately in the car.
The two people may have met for less than two minutes.
Li Xiang looked at the butt of the car in the distance and wondered stupidly, is this the so-called love?
Without any hesitation, Alice immediately took pictures with a high-resolution digital camera and sent the journal to relevant informants in the United States.
Inside the Xia Academy of Sciences.
Zhou Shenzhi, Wu Yong and others were having an emergency meeting.
The content of the meeting was about the crazy copying and transmission of "Acta Biology" to foreign countries.
A researcher said to Zhou Shenzhi with some worries: "Dean Zhou, now our academic journals are being pirated in various ways. This is not a question of economic losses, but a question of whether the papers in them will be leaked.
?”
The researchers all agreed, "Changtian Technology's paper on the ability of microorganisms to use organic matter to generate electricity is very broad, both in terms of academic design knowledge and application prospects, and it is the first time in human history!"
"If we accidentally leak the relevant technology, it will be very detrimental to the scientific research environment of the entire Xia Kingdom, and it will also betray the trust Changtian Technology has placed in us."
This concern of researchers is quite understandable.
Because in the decades since Acta Biologica was founded, this situation has never happened.
In the many years since the Xia Academy of Sciences was established, no paper has ever been competed for by scientific research institutions or universities around the world.
This time, Changtian Science and Technology’s paper is completely phenomenal. According to this situation, the impact factor of Acta Biologica Sinica will be abruptly raised by several percentage points.
But Zhou Shenzhi is not worried about technical leaks.
He smiled and said to everyone: "What is a scientific research paper? A scientific research paper is to publish the results of research to the world."
"I believe that Changtian Technology, as a mature scientific research company, must have comprehensively considered the issues of papers and scientific research confidentiality."
"So we don't have to worry about Changtian Technology's scientific research papers being leaked through academic journals."
"We don't need to think too much about the fact that Acta Biology has been photographed in large numbers or pirated and printed."
Zhou Shenzhi joked: "This can prove that the quality of the academic journals sponsored by our Xiaguo Academy of Sciences is still good."
"What we have to consider now is how we can use the shareholder style of Changtian Technology to run our academic journal well and solidly, so that it can become a journal of high quality in the true sense!"
Zhou Shenzhi also sighed and said: "Chen Xiao from Changtian Technology once said something to me."
"Then I hope that one day in Xia Guo's scientific and technological community, our scientific research industry and scientific and technological workers will not become proud because our papers are published in "Nature", but because certain academic journals will be proud of the results of our research and development.
.”
Zhou Shenzhi added: "I very much hope that our Acta Biologica Sinica will one day become a major academic journal comparable to Nature!"
Zhou Shenzhi had already set the tone during the meeting, and the Xia Academy of Sciences also believed that compared to academic journals, which are subject to crazy printing and piracy, it is more important for Changtian Technology's papers to be known to more people.
The most urgent thing for the Xia Academy of Sciences now is to achieve long-term cooperation with Changtian Technology.
There are two benefits to achieving such a goal.
One is that the first journals of Changtian Technology's future papers will all be journals sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which will help improve the impact factor and influence of the academic journals of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
In addition, Xia Guoji Academy of Sciences can cooperate with Changtian Technology to carry out corresponding projects.
It will also help Xia Guo Academy of Sciences improve its academic level.
At the same time, the Department of Energy in Washington, USA.
Senior officials and biologists from the Department of Energy are still analyzing the core technologies related to Changtian Technology from the information obtained in the laboratory.
Several papers in Xia's "Acta Biology" of the Chinese Academy of Sciences on the generation of electricity by Changtian Technology microorganisms have become key research objects of the Ministry of Energy.
This paper came from the Xia Kingdom.
And it's not paper, it's taken with a high-definition camera against the paper version.
The content of the shooting is relatively mock-up.
In order to obtain this high-definition photo, the Department of Energy of the United States spent tens of thousands of dollars, and it is unknown whether it was obtained from several dealers.
And you must know that the previous price of "Acta Biology" was only more than 10 yuan, and the internal price was only 8 yuan.
But it made Ramos and biologist Mick's team very angry.
Because all the contents of the paper are in Chinese and there is not a sentence in English.
Except for some calculation formulas and numbers, no one could understand a word.
Some biologists couldn't help complaining: "Changtian Technology is not a rigorous scientific research company at all. They don't use English at all to write papers! It's not reliable at all!"
This has been the arrogance of the West for a long time.
I believe that something as rigorous as academics must be written in English to comply with regulations.
When they look at papers written all over in Chinese, they get a headache and have no idea where to start.
The Department of Energy also has some Chinese employees.
Just because of the long-term discrimination in the United States, Chinese people cannot be reused in any position in the United States, especially in government departments and scientific research industries.
These Chinese are low-level employees.
But there is no way.
Now only these Chinese can speak Chinese.
Ramos called a Chinese to translate Changtian Technology’s paper.
This Chinese man did understand Chinese, but after seeing the papers, he was confused.
He knew every word, but when all the words were put together, he really didn't know how to translate them.
After all, there are too many academic and professional words used in it.
The Chinese also wanted to prove himself. It took him a week to translate 1/3 of the paper, but after the translation, people including Ramos and Mick looked confused.
I can't understand it at all.
Everyone is aware of a problem.
It is not enough to rely on Chinese translators who understand Chinese every day. The person who needs to translate must also understand biology.
The Ministry of Energy struggled for a long time, and finally tried every means to find Xu Meixin, an international graduate student from Xia Guo from the School of Life Sciences at MIT.
This international student absolutely dislikes his own country, and even dislikes Xia Country more than Americans.
When she graduated from her undergraduate degree, she stood on the podium of the college and loudly praised the sweet air in the United States and denounced how bad the smog in Xia China was.
With her passionate speech, she also gained the trust and love of many professors and teachers at MIT.
Therefore, she also obtained the school's postgraduate qualification with a high comprehensive score.
Such people are the most popular in American universities.
Biological experts from the Department of Energy and MIT are not worried that Xu Meixin will reveal secrets.
They can even be sure that Xu Meixin will do her best to work for the Department of Energy.
In this way, Xu Meixin was urgently called to the Ministry of Energy.
Of course she was quite happy.
Because she believed that she had taken an important step and was closer to immigrating to the United States.
Xu Meixin started intense work. She used her proficiency in Chinese and her understanding of biology to spend two full weeks translating this paper.
While translating, Xu Meixin was also very surprised.
The person who wrote this paper was actually Xia Guo’s scientific research company!
Is this still the Xia Guo Scientific Research Company in her impression?
Changtian Technology's technological heritage and endless breakthroughs in high-tech technology put even the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to shame.
Mick is a detailed reader of the paper translated by Xu Meixin.
He and his team were extremely shocked.
From this paper, it can be determined that the colony named NG-04 in the laboratory of Changtian Technology does not exist in nature. Instead, Changtian Technology uses some strains of nature to continuously exchange genes.
And research and development.
This technology is quite impressive, and can be said to have reached the top technology in the biological world.
What shocked Rameau was that this type of bacterial colony had a very high utilization rate of organic matter and a very high energy use efficiency.
90% energy conversion efficiency, this efficiency is far greater than any thermal power station.
It can be said that as long as there are enough organic matter, this technology of Changtian Technology can use these organic matter to continuously generate electricity.
Electric energy is the mother of all energy.
It can also be converted and replaced with other forms of personnel.
This technique is pretty scary.
The senior officials of the Department of Energy looked grave. They learned about the operation mode of the joint colony from the paper, but did not obtain more detailed scientific research information.
Ramos said to Mick: "Mr. Mick, what do you think of this scientific research result of Changtian Technology?"
Mick was still in absolute shock.
He said with some disbelief: "If this paper is true, and everything photographed at the microbial power station is true, then I am sure that the biotechnology currently possessed by Changtian Technology is ahead of the entire human race by an era, at least 100 years!"
