Chapter 161 Come to the door for advice
For journals, the review mechanism is usually double-blind.

Double-blind means that neither the paper writer nor the reviewers know who the other is.

It's like getting married in ancient times. Before the bridal chamber, you don't know my depth, and I don't know your length.

This time, the RPL Physics Journal put the original author and the reviewer in the same country, which may not have some bad taste in it.

Maybe, they also wanted to see Shen Guanglin's true level.

When Shen was a contributor, he quarreled with the reviewer every day.

When he was a reviewer, would he also quarrel with the contributor, especially if the contributor was a scholar in his own country?

The editors and editors-in-chief of Citigroup are also a very interesting group of people. What bad thoughts can they have?

Especially in these years, the friendship between China and the United States is a major trend.

They are also very eager to hope that a certain country in the east can make progress with their support, so they will give the green light to China on many things.

It's also a way to prove that they are superior to CCCP.

After discovering the secret on the letter paper, Commissioner Dou and Commissioner Fan have encountered difficulties. Who is this reviewer?

The code on the letter paper clearly shows that this reviewer must be someone from China.

Because this kind of letter paper can only be found in China, and if he is a foreigner, it is impossible to write the feedback in such detail.

Eloquent, looking at those key points now, it's almost like being told by ear.

I have a heart.

Who could this reviewer be?
He should have recognized that the contributor is from Huaxia, right?
Otherwise, it would be impossible to give such detailed guidance.

There are quite a few physics masters in China, such as theoretical physics, aerospace, and condensed matter, but for a while, I really can't think of who this master is.

If you can’t think of it, don’t think about it. Commissioner Dou himself is a physics expert who graduated from Columbia University. His English level is not bad, but he has not participated in international exchanges all the year round. It is true that he is a bit rusty in usage habits and grammar.

Teacher Fan is actually the same.

Their own level is sufficient, but they lack the most intuitive understanding of the common writing habits in the world, and they still have too little communication.

I have read a lot of journals and academic papers written by others, but I can't do it when it's my turn to write.

In particular, they first wrote the original manuscript in Chinese, and then translated it into English. There must be places where the words do not convey the meaning.

If you want to modify it, you must find someone who is familiar with the international market.

At the dinner table, the two were still discussing this issue.

"Old Dou, there is a man in our school who is very good at writing English papers."

Lao Fan took a sip of the malted milk essence soaked in twisted twist, which was soft and nourishing.

"Really, how tall is it?" Commissioner Dou didn't care, not because he didn't believe it, after all, he was just an interpreter.

"Anyway, it's very high. We don't comment on his scientific research ability, but his thesis writing ability is really strong. An inconspicuous idea can be written in his pen."

The fact that Shen Guanglin published papers in batches spread throughout Capital University.

Many people think that it should be a physical discovery that everyone is accustomed to. When they come to Shen Guanglin, they can change into a paper, which is also a high-end paper included in SCI journals.

Shen Guanglin has only been at Capital University for a year, and he has published no less than 10 SCI papers.

"Really? So powerful? Is he a genius? He can publish more than ten SCI papers a year."

"It's hard to say whether he is a genius, but I don't think his brain reaction is fast, but he has chosen a good entry point. Every paper of his makes people feel that he has said a lot, but in summary, he seems to have said nothing. .”

"Is this writing a conference report? This is a professional paper."

"That person's research is not social science, but physics. It is said that he shined at the International Conference on Theoretical Physics in Los Angeles. I just don't know how he wrote those papers."

Commissioner Fan's understanding of "professional brushes" is not deep enough.

In later generations, a good idea can write three or five high-quality papers. Shen Guanglin just used the skills gradually honed by scholars in the future 40 years in advance.

"What's the teacher's name? Can you recommend it for me? I'll bring a paper to visit another day. I'm really interested when you say that."

Originally, Dou Heguang wanted to revise it slowly by himself, but he didn't really ask for advice when he came to Lao Fanben, he came here to show off.

It's not bad to find someone to polish it, after all, it saves time and effort.

"Yes, his surname is Shen, and his name is Shen Guanglin. He is a teacher in the School of Physics. It used to cost 200 yuan to ask him to revise a paper. Now I heard that he rarely makes a move. After all, his status has risen with the tide."

The teachers at Capital University thought that Shen Guanglin’s fee was expensive, but after he washed his hands, he realized that even 500 yuan was worth it.

"It's him?"

Dou Heguang was surprised. It turned out that this young man didn't rely entirely on nepotism. He didn't expect to have such a reputation.

"Why, do you know Mr. Shen?" Lao Fan was curious.

"During the Chinese New Year, I actually met him once. I heard that he is already a professor, right? Do all professors in Beijing University treat you so casually?"

Commissioner Dou himself is a senior researcher, which is actually equivalent to a professor in terms of professional title.

That young man may not be as old as his own son, but he is already at the same level as himself.

"Don't talk nonsense, why is our school so casual? Mr. Shen is really capable despite being young. As I said last time, he is the young teacher who published an article in "Science."

Lao Fan had no choice but to prove for Shen Guanglin that Lao Dou suspected that Shen Guanglin was actually suspicious of Capital University in disguise.

"real or fake?"

"Of course it is true. We only found out later that he actually published two "Science" articles, not just one."

Shen Guanglin has never regarded the review as something to show off, but when writing his resume, there are indeed two "Science", which is a real achievement.

"Then why did he say that he got the title because he helped the school with a scientific research project, and this is the reward given to him by the school?"

Commissioner Dou also found it unbelievable at first, thinking that it was impossible for Capital University to be so sloppy, but seeing him young, he felt that he should not have any academic background, and nepotism was a matter of course.

"He is modest. I am also aware of the scientific research funding, because our School of Materials also participated in this scientific research project. It is a project to develop heat-insulating and high-temperature-resistant materials. Mr. Shen has researched a good material by himself. , and did not use special funds, the school just donated peaches and plums to speed up the approval process, and they are already qualified."

"so smart!"

"That is, I have listened to his lectures, he is more foolish, and he likes to say some ambiguous forward-looking words, and the Fusang people like him. Now he has set up his own laboratory, and all the materials are donated by the Fusang people. money."

Lao Fan did not know that Shen Guanglin's forward-looking words were actually the facts of historical development, and the subsequent results and developments would prove that what he said was correct.

"They just give him money for no reason? There are no other terms?"

People in this period are highly sensitive and always feel that there must be an exchange of interests.

"Probably not. You'll know it if you read it in the past. It is said that their conditions for accepting donations are quite harsh. They only accept free aid, no supervision, and no targeted research."

"Why do Fusang people still donate money?"

"For technological progress!"

This is what Shen Guanglin himself said, and it is also the purpose and direction of his laboratory: for the advancement of science and technology.

Shen Guanglin didn't know that someone was talking about him.

Because he was frowning at the mess that happened at home.

Since Li Rong became a "little aunt", her whole attitude has changed. She used to be a person who was indifferent to the world, but now she began to show her desire to control.

Of course, she did not have conflicts with Jiang Zhenhua, but formed a united front with her niece Jiang Zhenhua.

The two girls jointly took charge of various rights in the family, but they adopted an unanimous attitude of rejection towards the outsiders, Sister Xiuhua and others.

The main reason is that the mother-in-law of Sister Xiuhua is really annoying.

As I said before, most of Shen Guanglin's money is locked in the box in the basement, and the change for daily expenses is placed in another box in the main room, and anyone who wants to use it can get it.

Both Shen Guanglin and Li Rong didn't care about counting, while Jiang Zhenhua was a southern girl, very careful, she knew exactly how much money was in the cash box and often counted it.

After Sister Xiuhua's mother-in-law came, she always took the money from the cash box, which made the niece very dissatisfied.

But she was still in a helpless position at that time.

Now, Miss Li Rong has "upgraded" from a sister to an aunt.

She also had a certain interest in the family's financial rights, and she was also very upset when she heard her niece say that the old lady had moved out, and she had to come to collect daily expenses.

Because they lived in the laboratory most of the time, Fuyuanmen came here every now and then, and they seldom joined forces.

After the food stored for the New Year is used up, there is no replenishment.

Sister Xiuhua's mother-in-law lives here often. She took things from home and started to buy things with money when she had nothing to take.

Jiang Zhenhua definitely couldn't tolerate this kind of thing, so she collected the money.

Unexpectedly, the old lady began to move the belongings at home to exchange money, and was arrested.

The whole surrounding area is full of his own people, and Jiang Zhenhua knows everything about them.

Sure enough, raising rice to nourish kindness, fighting rice to nourish hatred.

Sister Xiuhua cowardly said nothing, this is her mother-in-law after all.

My mother-in-law doesn't know how to repent. I did all this just for the sake of my children. I have no income, and you don't live in this house. If I have no money to spend, I must exchange something for money.

Shen Guanglin didn't even think about what to do with this matter. He left the final decision to Li Rong, who was the mistress.

In the first month of the capital, the weather is still very cold. Although it is already the beginning of spring, it is not yet the end of the cold spring. In fact, it still looks like winter.

Commissioner Dou felt that he should not be hypocritical, so he asked Professor Fan to visit Shen Guanglin.

They went to the School of Physics first. Sure enough, Shen Guanglin was not in the office. The teaching assistant said that they could find him in his laboratory, which was in Zhongguancun.

With that said, the teaching assistant took out two keys.

"What is this for?" Not to mention Lao Dou, even Lao Fan was confused.

"After all, it's a bit of a distance to the laboratory. Do you want to go by bicycle? If you want to go to the laboratory, you can ride a bicycle to save time."

Interesting, "Aren't you afraid that we will ride the bike away?"

"That's why you need someone to manage it?"

"Well, it makes sense."

Looking at a row of brand-new bicycles in the carport, the words "Symmetry Breaking Research Institute" are sprayed on it, and there are shared bicycle collection points written on the outside.

Good idea, if there is a fee, it will definitely be a business opportunity.

After leaving the south gate of Capital University, the Institute of Symmetry Breaking will arrive soon.

The magnificent office building and dormitory building, the unique garden design, is this Mr. Shen's own research institute?

"He alone owns such a large research institute?" Commissioner Dou expressed incredulity. The Institute of Materials Science and Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences where he works is only two or three large offices.

"It should be. I haven't been here before. I only met him once, that is, I met him when I was researching and developing a project. He is a very polite person."

There are even guards at the gate, which looks very formal.

The two reported their names, and the guard was very polite and immediately called.

Soon, Shen Guanglin came out of the laboratory building.

There are actually two members of the academic department visiting together, which is a rare visitor.

Faculty members will be academicians in the future, and they will only become rarer and rarer. It is necessary to establish a good relationship.

Shen Guanglin was very enthusiastic: "Professor Fan, after saying goodbye that day, you still have the same old style, especially this front tooth, it is really outstanding, extraordinary and refined."

In fact, the two were not as unfamiliar as Lao Fan said. Shen Guanglin had always been very enthusiastic towards Teacher Fan, and Teacher Fan also liked this humble and "polite" young man very much.

"Commissioner Dou, we meet again!" Shen Guanglin also did not neglect this Commissioner Dou.

Commissioner Dou found that Shen Guanglin was different today than when he first met him. He exuded a different confidence today.

After all, this is not Yuquan Mountain, this is his home field.

"Xiao Shen, let's meet again." Commissioner Dou actually came to ask for help. He had some opinions on Shen Guanglin before, but now he is still a little embarrassed.

Next came the visit process. Shen Guanglin took them to visit the entire laboratory building.

Most of the entire building is still empty, and the biological researchers have not been in place, only the physics and chemistry groups are doing research.

This is still a year after the increase in manpower, otherwise there were fewer people before.

Shen Guanglin's laboratory has spent a lot of money, and the conditions are really good, especially in the chemistry laboratory, all kinds of equipment look very high-end, not only beautiful but also easy to use.

Shen Guanglin's own physics laboratory also has a lot of high-end products, such as high-power microscopes, spectrometers, spectrometers, mass spectrometers, and laser generators. Although they are not particularly expensive, they are high-end.

"Mr. Shen, how much did it cost to build this laboratory?"

"It's more than 100 million so far." Shen Guanglin didn't need to hide it.

"Yes, it can be built like this with only 100 million yuan."

Shen Guanglin did not say that it was US dollars, and Commissioner Dou automatically defaulted the money into RMB.

"It's time for dinner, let's have a light meal together. There is no special preparation, just an ordinary working meal."

"Okay, it's up to the owner."

Shen Guanglin led the two committee members into the cafeteria. There were already people queuing up for dinner. When they saw Shen Guanglin coming in, they didn't say hello. Everyone was more casual.

Shen Guanglin helped Commissioner Dou and Professor Fan each get a plate, and then they lined up to eat together.

"Do you want money for food?"

"We want money, but not tickets."

"How about the price, how does it compare with the school?"

"It's the same as in school. Breakfast is steamed buns and steamed buns, lunch is steamed buns and rice, and dinner is also steamed buns and rice. Supper is usually fried noodles and fried rice."

However, unlike the school, Shen Guanglin's laboratory hires a chef, a master chef who can be called an eighth-level worker.

"How to charge the specific fee?"

"It's the same as a dime, no matter what kind of dish it is, it's the same as a dime."

"Steamed buns also sell for 3 cents? Isn't that a bit expensive, the school's steamed buns only cost [-] cents?"

"We sell them for ten cents here, but you can eat all you want."

Commissioner Dou took a look at the dishes, and it was all right: braised pork with potatoes, stewed vermicelli with cabbage, Sixi meatballs, seaweed soup.

Commissioner Dou is also a southerner. He didn't ask for steamed buns, but a portion of rice, which was also 1 cents apiece, and he steamed it with a bowl.

It’s different when it’s cooking. The chef didn’t even ask. He gave each person a spoonful first, and then said, each person only has one meatball. add.

Braised Pork with Potatoes, there are not many potatoes, but many pieces of meat, and the chef does not have the problem of shaking hands.

"This dish is also a dime?"

"Otherwise, our food subsidy for each meal is 5 cents, so three dishes and one soup plus staple food is 5 cents."

Big dog!
Rich labs are just different.

It was cold, so naturally there was no lunch break.

The condition of Shen Guanglin's office is quite good, with telephone, printer, TV, etc., as well as a special tea table and wine cabinet.

If you have money, you can have anything.

While making tea, Shen Guanglin asked the two scholars why they came here.

There is no need to hide this kind of mastery as a teacher.

"Mr. Shen, I heard that you are very good at writing papers. I submitted a paper recently, and the other party asked me to revise the writing. Can you help me see how to make the revisions more appropriate."

Shen Guanglin hadn't taken this job for a long time. He didn't expect that his reputation could spread so far, even the Chinese Academy of Sciences knew about it.

Faculty committee members can help, and this favor can be accepted.

"Show it to me."

As soon as Shen Guanglin saw the paper, he immediately felt familiar.

This is too coincidental!

"The reviewer said that the sentences I used did not conform to the common language of physics, and there were some other mistakes. But I have been away from international exchanges for more than ten years, and I can read journals and magazines. I really have a lot of power to write by myself."

"It's definitely not in vain for you to help me translate. How about a second author? This is the second author of RPL, and it is a stable paper."

The self-confidence and pride of scholars burst out from the bottom of their bones.

Shen Guanglin twitched: "Committee Dou, I really can't help you with this."

"Xiao Shen, it's rare for Lao Dou to ask you for help. If you're not too busy, I'll help you. You've participated in more international academic exchanges, and your revisions are more targeted." Professor Fan couldn't help but help too.

"That's not what I meant. It's not that I'm hypocritical. How should I put it? Commissioner Dou's paper is well written, but I wrote these revisions."
