Chapter 600: 12 experts review the manuscript!(1/3)
Sticky sticker?!
Post your sister!
Chen Jianhai subconsciously wanted to scold him back.
But the moment he put his hands on the keyboard, Chen Jianhai still resigned and wrote:
“Did you like my hotel review?! If you like it, please like and follow it~”

Explorer Telescope Editorial Office
Tang Kesen was sitting in a separate office, reviewing the documents received in the mailbox on his computer.
As the editor-in-chief of Explorer Telescope,
Tang Kesen receives many manuscripts, pictures, video materials and papers related to astronomy and horoscopes every week.
He should review these incoming articles and papers based on the content and direction of the journal.
Delete papers that do not meet the journal content, and then send qualified papers to a panel of experts for review.
And the review process is much more complicated and serious than other publications!
Because "Explorer Telescope" magazine is now a best-selling book for astronomy enthusiasts around the world. It is not only very interesting and readable, but also very authoritative. Every paper published in it has a very high reputation.
Scientific research value and gold content.
Therefore, Tang Kesen works very seriously every day.
But,
The article in front of him, "Conjecture on Gou Chen Yi's Movement Trajectory," was a bit embarrassing for him.
"Medieval starry sky map..."
Is this source reliable?!!
Tang Kesen frowned, looking thoughtful.
All astronomical research conducted today is based on existing items and data that have been confirmed to be reliable, authentic, and certain.
Although his current identity is just a magazine editor,
But in terms of his understanding of astronomical knowledge, he can be called an astronomical expert.
It is said that the ultimate dream of mankind is to conquer the stars and the sea.
On the way to conquer the sea,
Countless adventurers and navigators explore the world and sea by boat,
Every navigation chart is purchased with countless lives and wind and waves, and is extremely precious!
But medieval astrological charts are not medieval nautical charts!
Limited by time, space and technology,
These great adventurers can sail ships and conquer the sea,
But they can't fly a spaceship to conquer the stars!
Even if there were telescopes at that time,
However, the range and clarity that a telescope can see are limited.
And subject to the control and influence of the theological church,
Who knows whether these stars will have some artificial additions and outlines in the name of "god"?
It’s not like they haven’t received similar manuscripts before,
It’s not that the contributor deliberately deceived, but that he himself didn’t know that this thing was fake.
In the end, the magazine had to invite four hard-core experts to judge and review the content of the manuscript, and finally determined that it was a fake manuscript and would not be adopted.
There are such examples first,
Tang Kesen is even more cautious in reviewing manuscripts.
However, this paper has extremely high standards and attainments regardless of the author, research field, or article writing.
The star map photo posted in the center of the paper is also quite clear and accurate.
If the source of this paper is authentic and reliable, once published, the publication of the medieval starry sky map will shock the world!!
Think carefully and rationally for a moment,
Tang Kesen turned on the computer and sent a review invitation to the astrology experts in the expert library.
Usually, when he selects expert reviewers, he will distinguish between the "first echelon" and the "second echelon".
If he sends invitations to experts in the “first echelon”,
If an expert is unable to undertake the review work because of something else at hand,
He will also send invitations to the second-tier experts.
Usually it is enough for a manuscript to be reviewed by 4 experts.
But just to be cautious,
Tang Kesen not only sent applications to all the experts in the "First Echelon" and "Second Echelon",
An invitation was even sent to other famous astrologers.
soon,
The email sent received a reply.
Not only did 12 experts express their willingness to review this paper,
Even the dean of the School of Astronomy at Yinqiao National Mist University expressed strong interest in this paper and happily expressed his willingness to serve as a reviewer for this paper.
Tang Kesen looked at the reply on the screen in shock and murmured:
"Oh my God!"
"If Xihe Tianwen's brothers knew there were so many reviewers, they would definitely come and kill me."
For a paper, the more reviewers it has, the harder it is to draft it.
Even if the manuscript is approved, each reviewer's comments on the manuscript will eventually be fed back to the original author, who will make revisions before it can be returned to the journal for publication.
Once because of a small oversight,
Tang Kesen accidentally sent review invitations to 10 experts at the same time.
What he didn't expect was that eight experts responded that they accepted the review invitation.
Fortunately,
The "unlucky guy" finally completed the revision of the paper with great difficulty and successfully published it.
The scary thing is,
At a subsequent expert and scholar meeting forum held within the journal,
The "unlucky guy" was invited as the "Annual Exploration Telescope" to give a report to the participants.
After the report is over,
The "unlucky guy" began to make frantic inquiries, constantly asking who the editor who reviewed his paper was.
Tang Kesen was so frightened that he invited the "unlucky guy" to drink tea several times before he could write off the past.
Just 8 reviewers almost killed them,
What's more
12!
Tang Kesen silently drew a blessing cross in his heart for "Yihe Tianwen".
I also silently drew a "Blessing Cross" for myself.
Subsequently,
Tang Kesen happily packaged the paper and its excerpts and sent them to this person.
In the mailboxes of 12 experts.
"This manuscript is done for now!"
Tang Kesen recorded the title and editing time of this manuscript in the data network next to it.
Then click on the next manuscript and quickly review it.
…
The moment Tang Kesen sent the email!
In the family building of Xihe Institute of Astronomy.
