Chapter 23 Core Journals
Zombies, yin and yang eyes, internal masters, fighting masters.
The messy elements went back and forth in the dream, and Yu Xian got up from the dormitory bed in a daze.

"Hi! Son, what time is it?"

It is a common way of communication in the boys' dormitory, and they are called sons when they open their mouths, and they can never tell the seniority of the roommates.

Unless someone is going to cook, then he is everyone's father.

However, Yu Xian's words for nearly four years have not been answered, and there is only one person in the dormitory.

Most of the students chose to defend their graduation thesis, which was completed a week earlier, and their graduation photos were taken in the first semester of their senior year.

Up to the current stage, the roommates went their separate ways, at most exchanging a few words in the chat group.

In a few days, the entire dormitory building will be emptied to welcome the freshmen of the next semester, and Yu Xian will have to move out.

"What am I going to do next?"

According to Yu Xian's original plan, he must do some other work, and he will never have anything to do with paleontology in this life.

The competitiveness of this major in the job market is simply appalling.

Either it's awesome to get into graduate school, or it's almost impossible to find a job that corresponds to archaeobiology in the regular job market.

But the test on Baiguan Mountain is still unclear.

According to what he said yesterday, he first threw a booklet for practicing basic martial arts to Yu Xian. He didn't say regular inspections, but judged qualifications based on the content of subsequent tests.

Since it is a family of pangolins, the test given must be drilled into the ground.

In order to save his life, Yu Xian could only follow Bai Guanshan's wishes for the time being, and return to his free body after failing the assessment.

During this period, what kind of job do you have to find so that you can slap your ass and leave at any time?

If I don't work, what will I eat?
bell bell -

The phone rang, interrupting Yu Xian's thoughts.

A string of unfamiliar numbers was displayed on the screen, and the origin was unknown.

After experiencing yesterday's encounter with the six extreme households, Yu Xian felt a strong sense of embarrassment towards the unfamiliar number, and cautiously pressed the answer button.

"Which one?"

"Student Yu Xian, I'm Wen Zhiyuan."

"Oh! Professor Wen, good morning."

Yu Xian realized that it was yesterday's assessment team leader, Professor Wen Zhiyuan from Sandalwood University.

Leaving aside the strange things of three religions and nine schools such as tomb robbery, Wen Zhiyuan's reputation in the circle of paleontology is much greater than that of Baiguan Mountain.

"I called today to tell you that the Chipterosaur fossil you unearthed has been tested correctly, and it is larger and more complete than the only one in the world."

"That's good. It's my honor to promote research on dinosaur evolution."

Yu Xian said polite words, and silently shouted another sentence in his heart: Xunlong Atlas is awesome.

It was impossible for Yu Xian to determine that it belonged to a strange pterosaur on the spot when he dug up the broken fossils in the Lianchi mountain range.

It is Xunlong Atlas that directly marks the collected information, including the exact name and completeness.

Otherwise, even if Yu Xian returned to Xianghe Academy with the fossil, he would have to spend a lot of time identifying what species it was.

At that time, there was no time for Yu Xian to do more operations.

In the earphone receiver, Wen Zhiyuan's emotional tone continued.

"Student Yu Xian, this fossil of yours is really possible to turn the type species into an effective species recognized by the academic circle, but you need to write a paper and related description."

To make the excavated paleontological fossils public, photos of the fossil bodies, various inspection reports, and paper descriptions are required.

The first two are easy to deal with, and they are all things that belong to idleness.

The papers can be written by themselves and published outside, and the new progress in Chipterosaur research will have channels to be known to more researchers.

"I can introduce you to an editor of a core journal, and the testing materials will be sent to you as well."

Fortunately, Wen Zhiyuan didn't intend to get involved in the research, and he didn't even mention that he wanted to sign the papers and related documents, so all the academic research results were idle.

Of course these things belong to leisure, but Wen Zhiyuan's overtones can still be heard.

Yu Xian was not stupid, and quickly followed the topic after expressing his thanks.

"Professor Wen, I really don't know how to repay my great favor."

"Contributing to paleontological research is the job of a scholar, but."

When the topic changed, Wen Zhiyuan offered an olive branch, "Does Yu Xian consider taking the postgraduate entrance examination? If you are admitted to Sandalwood University, you can come to my research group."

"Public examination."

If you don't know what job to look for, postgraduate entrance examination is indeed a good choice, especially if professors from famous schools are willing to recruit.

It meant that as long as Yu Xian passed the national postgraduate examination and entered the second round of interviews at Sandalwood University, even if the total score was lower than other competitors, Wen Zhiyuan still had a lot of power to accept this student.

There is a little retest default meaning.

And a third-rate school like Xianghe College does not have graduate qualifications, so it is not within the scope of Xian's consideration.

Having said that, however.
"Professor Wen, I'm ashamed to say that my grades are definitely not good at the level of a prestigious school. I'm a little anxious about the first round of the national examination."

"That's it"

Now Baoyan is absolutely too late.

Unless Yu Xian can come up with even more earth-shattering results and meet the standard of admission without examination, he must pass the national examination.

In the face of a fair national exam, Wen Zhiyuan couldn't let any student go through the back door.

"Let's write the thesis on Chipterosaurus first, no matter whether you go to graduate school or not in the future, this is a very beneficial life experience."

"Ok."

After finishing the call, Yu Xian pondered the possibility of going to graduate school. He took the dragon-hunting map and went to the mountains to try his luck, and he might find some unidentified fossils.

Add Wen Zhiyuan as a friend, and the chat window will soon receive the editor's contact information of the corresponding core journal.

After explaining the direction of writing, the editor said that Professor Wen had already paid for the page fee in advance, so he could just write in his spare time.

Most of the published journals are like this. The author has to spend money to buy the page, which is the "page fee". The page fee of core journals starts at 1000b, and there are also several thousand.

The final remuneration may be several hundred b (the rewards of the school and work units will be mentioned separately)
In general, this is the rule. Even if the quality of the paper is very high and it is actually qualified, in all likelihood, it will not be able to avoid the trap of posting money to publish the paper.

Low-grade journals have low page fees, and relatively, there is basically no manuscript fee.

After the chat ended, Yu Xian also received the data and multiple sets of pictures from Wen Zhiyuan.

The review time for core journals is generally 3 to 6 months, and sometimes longer, not counting the return and revision of the manuscript.

No wonder Wen Zhiyuan urged Yu Xian to hurry up, if he repeated several times, he would not be able to catch up with the postgraduate entrance examination.

If you want to write a core journal-level paper, Yu Xian will definitely not be able to do it based on his original strength.

It’s different now. The literature research related to Strange Pterosaur has been greatly regressed because of the existence of Devil Frog.

It is necessary to go back five years instead of going back ten years.

Yu Xian only needs to rub the content of the Chipterosaur materials, documents, and even popular science textbooks that he has read before, and after rubbing it together, he can make a very breakthrough and forward-looking paper.

The most important thing is that you don’t have to worry about the repetition rate at all.
