Ning Jing's face turned red with anger. In the past, she rarely called Zhang Shengying by her name even in private situations, but this time she was really angry.
"This is too normal." Qin Hai shrugged his shoulders and said disapprovingly.
"This is completely harmful! This... this is a criminal act!" Ning Jing stamped her feet, not knowing what words to use to describe this matter. She thought that Zhang Shengying might frame her or catch her.
What mistake she made made a big fuss, but she never imagined that as a teacher, she would actually instruct her graduate students to manipulate the equipment to frame a student. This kind of thing completely broke the bottom line of morality.
It is true that committing a crime is not an exaggeration.
Qin Hai waved his hand and said: "We will talk about the nature of Zhang Shengying's matter later. Now you know what the other party did, and you have indeed fallen into the trap they dug. Think about it, now you should
How?"
"I have to redo all the magnetic properties experiments and get the results again," Jing Jing said.
"Will this have an impact on your defense?" Qin Hai asked. He didn't know as thoroughly as Jing Jing himself about matters that were too professional, so he could only ask Jing Jing.
Ning Jing thought about it seriously and said: "No, actually this part of the data is not the core of my paper, it is just some auxiliary content. Replacing this part of the data will not affect the conclusion of the paper. In fact, it is precisely because of these
The data is not that important, so I didn’t pay special attention to it, otherwise, I would have been able to find problems with the data through theoretical analysis.”
"Is there enough time?" Qin Hai asked again.
Jing Jing nodded and said: "It's totally in time. I can finish the experiment by working a few night shifts, and it will definitely not delay the defense... But for the "Superconducting" magazine, I have to write an email to explain it quickly.
Once they had received the report letter from Liu Jun, I was at a loss to explain."
"Let me take care of this matter." Qin Hai said. Several editorial board members of the magazine "Superconductivity" have dealt with Qin Hai, because today's superconducting materials cannot be produced without rare earths, and Qin Hai has important information in his hands.
The supply of rare earths, so those big-name superconducting experts have to sell Qin Hai's account.
Jing Jing also knew Qin Hai's energy. When he heard what he said, she felt relieved. She looked at the magnetometer in front of her and said bitterly: "Qin Hai, what should we do about Zhang Shengying and Liu Jun? What should we do?
Don’t you want to ask Teacher Chen to expose them?”
"It's not the time yet." Qin Hai smiled slightly and said meaningfully.
Jing Jing was used to following Qin Hai's advice, at least on some important matters. Qin Hai gave her some secret instructions, and she nodded and agreed to do everything according to Qin Hai's instructions.
In the following days, Ning Jing did not tell anyone about the problem with the magnetometer in the laboratory. Qin Hai got a new magnetometer for her, and she worked overtime to redo the previous experiments.
Once again, I revised the data in the paper. Although Chen Zongze is Ning Jing's tutor, he doesn't know what modifications Ning Jing has made to the paper. As Ning Jing said, this part of the data is not actually the core and does not affect the quality of her paper.
The main conclusion, therefore, Chen Zong is not too concerned about.
When the scheduled defense time came, Ning Jing walked into the defense classroom with a confident attitude. She began to introduce her thesis to the defense committee composed of five superconducting experts from inside and outside the school. At this time, Zhang Shengying took a stack of materials.
, walked into the office of Vice President Meng Qilong.
"Principal Meng, I have something to report to you." Zhang Shengying said hurriedly as soon as she entered the door.
Meng Qilong, who was reading documents at his desk, raised his head, took off his reading glasses, frowned and said, "It's Teacher Zhang? What's the matter with you? If you're not in a hurry, can you come back to me tomorrow? I have a report to read now.
, it will be sent to the Education Committee immediately."
In fact, Meng Qilong is not that anxious about the matter at hand. If another professor came to him, he would definitely put down the documents and listen enthusiastically to the other party's narrative. But this Zhang Shengying is really not likeable. Ever since she and Qin
After the conflict with Hai, she had to go to the school leaders every two days to complain or cry, which made everyone tired of her.
Zhang Shengying naturally knew what kind of image she had in the minds of the school leaders. However, this time she came with conclusive evidence and the reasons she claimed were very high-level. She did not worry that the school leaders did not take them seriously. She even felt that after this
Something happened, the school leaders will suddenly
It was discovered that the Superconducting Research Center under the management of Chen Zongze was full of problems, and she, Zhang Shengying, was the mainstay of the center. Precisely because she was a "conscientious" scholar who spoke uprightly, she was repeatedly criticized by Chen Zongze and his boss behind the scenes, Qin Hai.
Persecution and injustice are like mountains.
"Principal Meng, I'm here to report today. The matter reported is very urgent. If the school leaders cannot deal with it immediately, then the most serious scandal in the history of Capital University is likely to occur." Zhang Shengying opened her mouth and made sensational remarks.
.
"Teacher Zhang, are you saying this too seriously?" Meng Qilong didn't believe Zhang Shengying's words. He played with his reading glasses in his hand and said lightly.
Zhang Shengying glared and said: "Principal Meng, don't you believe it? Tell you, there is a student in our school who has published many articles in international journals and has a great influence. The data in the papers she wrote are all fake.
, is a blatant act of academic fraud. Fortunately, this behavior has been discovered by me, and it is still too late to stop its spread. If this behavior is discovered by foreign scholars and made public, the academic reputation of our Capital University will be completely destroyed."
"You mean... tranquility?" Meng Qilong asked in surprise. There were not many students who could publish multiple articles in international journals. Combined with Zhang Shengying's major, Meng Qilong could naturally guess who Zhang Shengying was talking about. He
Although he still had some doubts about Zhang Shengying's words, the results Zhang Shengying said were indeed something he did not dare to ignore.
"That's right, it's Jing Jing, Chen Zongze's proud disciple who claims to be the discoverer of iron-based superconductivity all day long." Zhang Shengying said sourly.
Meng Qilong automatically filtered out Zhang Shengying's complaints and asked: "Teacher Zhang, you said that Ning Jing's data was falsified. Do you have any evidence?"
"Of course there is evidence." Zhang Shengying said, "If there is no evidence, how can I dare to come to you and report it with my real name?"
"If the content of the real-name report is not true, you will be held responsible. Teacher Zhang, you should know that, right?" Meng Qilong reminded.
Zhang Shengying shook her head and said: "Of course I know, and I also know that the school is particularly biased towards top academics like Ning Jing. If there is no solid evidence, how can I dare to report it."
"The school does not and will not favor anyone." Meng Qilong corrected Zhang Shengying. He did not want to take the blame. "Teacher Zhang, if you have evidence, you can give it to me now, and I will ask the school's academic committee to conduct an investigation."
Check. If your report is true, no matter who is involved, the school will deal with it seriously in accordance with disciplines."
"My evidence is here." Zhang Shengying waved the information on her hand, "But there is no need to look at the evidence now, and I don't have time to look at it. I hope President Meng can bring the professors from the Academic Committee to the Superconductivity Research Center together.
In the big conference room, tranquility is there
She used her forged data to defend her doctoral thesis. If the defense committee did not discover the data forgery and passed her defense, it would be a discredit to Kyungseong University. I will expose her data in person. Who is right and who is wrong?
You can tell it at a glance.”
"Are you sure you have conclusive evidence?" Meng Qilong looked at Zhang Shengying and asked solemnly for the last time.
"Yes." Zhang Shengying nodded firmly.
"Okay." Meng Qilong returned to his desk, picked up the phone, and notified several professors from the academic committee of the school, asking them to gather at the entrance of the Superconducting Research Center immediately so that they could witness the quiet doctoral thesis defense together.
Zhang Shengying’s accusation.
Although Meng Qilong hates Zhang Shengying, he still somewhat believes in what Zhang Shengying said. In Meng Qilong's view, Zhang Shengying is also a professor at Beijing University after all. It is inevitable to be selfish and arrogant, but at least the academic conscience should be
Can she still be trusted? Since she so firmly claimed that there was a problem with the data in Ning Jing's paper, maybe there really was a problem.
Data falsification is a very bad behavior, and once verified, it will definitely be severely punished. Moreover, if Ning Jing's previous papers published in international journals also involve falsified data, the problem will be even greater. This is simply an international disgrace.
How dare Meng Qilong neglect such a big matter.
Ten minutes later, a group of people gathered downstairs at the Superconducting Research Center. After listening to Zhang Shengying’s brief introduction to the situation, the faces of several professors from the academic committee changed. Under the leadership of Meng Qilong, everyone came to the Ningjing Defense Center with solemn expressions.
the scene.
At this time, Ning Jing's thesis defense was more than halfway through. Ning Jing had finished introducing his thesis and was answering questions from the defense committee. Not to mention the three experts from the school, the two experts invited from outside the school also knew Ning Jing.
This young girl is the discoverer of iron-based superconductivity, and her academic future is limitless. Everyone is asking and answering questions with an inquiring attitude, and the atmosphere at the scene is quite harmonious.
Meng Qilong knocked on the door of the defense conference room. Du Xiangwang, the defense chairman, frowned and motioned to the defense secretary to open the door. Seeing Meng Qilong standing outside the door, Du Xiangwang stood up and said with an unhappy expression: "Meng Qilong
Principal, we are having a thesis defense here, what are you doing..."
"We are all here to listen to classmate Ning Jing's defense." Meng Qilong said, while pointing out several experts behind him and Zhang Shengying to Du Xiang. (To be continued.)
