As a mage, I just want to pursue the truth

Chapter 14 After the publication of "nature"
Li Miaomiao is well aware of the significance of nature and the difficulty of publishing nature. Even with the rapid depreciation of academic qualifications, with this nature, Zheng Li is at least an associate professor in this school.

Fact: Pengcheng’s Peacock Project, the first or corresponding author of Nature, can directly subsidize 300 million.

With a work of nature, it is too easy for Zheng Li to go to an international famous university to get a doctorate and come back.

In addition to being happy for the other party, Li Miaomiao was more unwilling. We were also freshmen, and the other party was far ahead of her.

"Congratulations, you posted nature in your freshman year, do you have any plans after that?"

"I guess if you stay in the medical polymer laboratory, they will let you lead a group, and some of the old professor's students will be assigned to you."

“All they need is an authorship.”

"You get free labor and more results."

This path is the path that most people will choose. If you are talented, you can cultivate deeply on the academic path.

Li Miaomiao continued: "When you come back, you will be a thousand young people, and even Changjiang Scholars are not impossible."

Zheng Li said directly: "I have my own ideas. From this year onwards, I will not go to the medical polymer laboratory anymore. I have more important things to do."

After proving that the will can directly interfere with reality, and the mage's spellcasting foundation exists, all plans will revolve around restoring the spellcasting ability.

He needs to create an artificial magic brain with more complex functions and better adaptability than the experimental one.

This goal cannot be achieved in the laboratory of Jiangcheng University. He needs to have his own biological laboratory.

Research is just a means.

Li Miaomiao was very curious about his plan: "Aren't you coming to the laboratory of the School of Biology?"

"Then what are your plans?"

Zheng Li replied: "You will know when the time comes, so let's not talk about it."

After Zheng Li hung up the phone, he found that his two roommates were all looking at him in horror:
"God Zheng, what did you just say?"

"I heard you right, you just said that you posted an article about nature?"

"Is it the nature we understand?"

"Or is there a new domestic journal named Nature?"

After the two of you came and went, they looked at Zheng Li expectantly.

Zheng Li: "It's the nature you understand. I am the first author. The school should report it later, and it has been published in the latest journal."

"See for yourself."

After finishing speaking, Zheng Li motioned for them to look at the computer screen by themselves, and there was this sentence in the email:

Your paper, 'xxxxxxxxx', has been scheduled for publication in Nature on 28 February 2019 at 16:00 (London time), 28 February 2019 at 11:00 (US Eastern Time).
"Fuck!"

"Shen Zheng has gone beyond our comprehension, and is no longer a normal human being."

"worship"

"Then will you transfer to the School of Biology?"

Because he was in a good mood, Zheng Li answered patiently: "No."

The roommate asked, "Why? If you go to the biology school, they will let you graduate in two years."

Zheng Li: "I also applied for ARMA. I can graduate in two years if I want to."

The two roommates still don't know what ARMA is, and they are already numb after a thousand degrees:

"I'll lie down first."

"I also lay down, I am actually the same kind as Zheng Shen."

The two of them all lay down on the bed. Their grades in freshman year were actually very good, and they planned to work hard in the second semester of freshman year.

I was so shocked that I didn't want to work hard at all.

"What do you think of the freshman from the School of Mathematics of Jiangcheng University publishing an article as the first author in the main journal of Nature?"

This question topped the hot search list extremely quickly on Zhihu, and there are many worshipers below.

"Thank you for the invitation. I just got off the plane in Midi. I can only say that the gap between people is bigger than that between people and dogs."

"Nature was published as a freshman in the School of Mathematics, and I haven't even posted it in the first district after my Ph.D. in the School of Biology."

"It feels like the Internet celebrity university is creating gods"

"The specific situation will wait for the boss to answer in detail. I am skeptical about it for the time being."

"Will it be another case of academic fraud or the achievements of many people on one person?"

The short responses were mostly dominated by emotions and doubts.

"Thank you, I was skeptical when I saw this answer, not only because nature is difficult to post, but also because freshmen or students from the School of Mathematics can post nature. There are too many unreasonable things in this .

We must know that publishing nature requires writing collaboration, not only direction support, data analysis, article language polishing, etc., it is becoming more and more difficult to publish nature by one person alone.

It is hard to believe that there are only two authors in Zheng Shen's thesis, he and xulin.li.

But I read the special reports of Jiangcheng University and Changjiang Metropolis Daily, and then after a rough reading of the paper, I think it is true.

Let me talk about Zheng Shen first. As a student who is just an adult, Zheng Shen has already far surpassed me in grades, which makes me feel very ashamed. I still have to work harder in the future. I have to publish at least one cell sub-journal before I graduate.

Zheng Li's grades in the Mathematics Academy are all full marks, and it is reported that he has hardly ever attended classes, relying entirely on self-study, and only going to exams.

The School of Mathematics claims that he has completed all the professional courses in the four years of university, and he has also published articles in the top mathematics journal ARMA, but the reputation of ARMA is far less than that of nature.

From this point of view, he is undoubtedly a genius. Sometimes the more outrageous the more real, because the cost of falsification is too high, he is only 18 years old, and there is still a long way to go in his academic career. This kind of academic conference will reveal its truth as soon as it is chatted.

Judging from the interviews with relevant people from the School of Mathematics and the School of Biology, he is a genius among geniuses, and it is understandable that geniuses can make such achievements.

In addition, going back to the paper, after I read the paper carefully, I found that the paper is more about designing a method to artificially synthesize endorphins.

This requires a flash of inspiration, not the usual accumulation. From this perspective, it is also reasonable.At the end of the paper, the editor also said that the experiment can be reproduced, but it can only be said that it is too good, and nature was published in freshman year.

Finally, let’s talk about the significance of artificially synthesizing endorphins. First of all, there is still a long way to go from the realization of artificially synthesizing endorphins in the laboratory to large-scale industrial production.

As a substance naturally secreted by the human body, endorphins can relieve pain. It may replace morphine on a large scale in the future, or it may be a new type of analgesic that is more friendly to the human body. "

In addition to this answer, there is another answer from a Ph.D. from the School of Biology, Jiangcheng University:

"As a classmate who has worked with Zheng Shen, I can only say that Zheng Shen is the most talented person I have ever seen. Whether it is experiment or theory, he is not inferior to anyone in the laboratory.

Especially the sense of scientific research, other experimental groups have experiments that cannot be done, and he can always come up with solutions when we ask him. Several times we asked him to add him as the author of the paper, but Zheng Shen refused.

Later, after he published Nature, we realized that Zheng Shen didn't like our publications.

It can only be said that some people's realm is too high, beyond the imagination of normal people. "
