When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Chapter 287 Submission to International Top Journals
Wang Donglai does not attach much importance to the breakthrough in lithium-sulfur batteries.

After all, lithium-sulfur batteries have many advantages, but they are still a long way from truly changing the world's energy industry.

But this does not mean that this technology is not valuable.

At the moment, this technology alone is worth hundreds of millions, provided that only patent licenses are sold.

If you have your own industrial chain, then the value will be enormous and you can definitely become an industry leader.

Wang Donglai is very clear about the value of this technology, but he still doesn't take it seriously.

So, the first thing I thought of was to help Tangdu Jiaotong University.

Through joint research and development, the patent belongs to Galaxy Technology Company, which has obtained substantial benefits, and Tangdu Jiaotong University has gained a reputation and received official attention.

It can be said that the two are not in conflict, but rather maximize benefits.

But Xu Songyao rejected Wang Donglai's proposal without hesitation.

The reason is very simple. It is because Xu Songyao does not want to do this kind of thing and set a precedent for this kind of thing. Also, compared with technological breakthroughs and the attention of superiors, Xu Songyao values ​​Wang Donglai more.

Even if this proposal was made by Wang Donglai, there would be no problem if he chose to accept it, but Xu Songyao was still unwilling to accept it.

Through these two years of contact, he has come to a deep understanding of one thing.

That is, Wang Donglai is definitely not a genius in the conventional sense, but an unparalleled genius who will influence the development of the times.

There was such a person in Tangdu Jiaotong University.

Qian Xuesen!
In Xu Songyao's heart, he has long regarded Wang Donglai as equal to Mr. Qian.

Xu Songyao did not reveal this idea at all, but he has been using his actual actions to show his attitude.

Therefore, after rejecting Wang Donglai's proposal, Xu Songyao did not give up. Instead, he thought about it, drafted a report, solemnly wrote his name on it, and submitted it to the superior unit.

But Wang Donglai didn't know this.

At this moment, he is writing a paper.

"Study on the influence of specific surface area and pore size of hollow carbon spheres on polysulfide compounds!"

"Research on using hollow carbon balls to solve lithium-sulfur battery problems!"

For others, two papers may take several months to complete, or even longer.

But in Wang Donglai's hands it is extremely simple.

In Wang Donglai's mind, there are countless high-quality papers, documents, and related reference books.

In addition, since my Chinese language subject has reached level 7, writing papers is naturally very simple.

Two days.

Both papers are completely completed.

While Wang Donglai was writing his paper, the patent application had already begun.

Galaxy Technology has long established a patent team that specializes in patent-related work.

Therefore, when the technology was just broken through, Galaxy Technology's patent team began to take action, both domestically and internationally, and applied for patents worldwide.

In modern society, although patents cannot prevent technology leakage, they can greatly protect the interests of the patent holder.

In order to keep the technology completely secret, either the team is too far ahead of the market and other experimental teams, with a huge lead that makes it impossible for them to overcome the huge technical barriers and replicate the technology, or the conditions for achieving the technology are extremely harsh, such as the king of modern civilization weapons, the nuclear bomb.

You can search for relevant concepts on the Internet, but it is impossible to create them.

From raw materials to machines to personnel, everything is being watched by international powers, making it impossible to make a breakthrough.

Even if there is a breakthrough, it is tacitly approved.

Lithium-sulfur batteries naturally will not receive such treatment. Even if Wang Donglai does not make a breakthrough, someone else will make a breakthrough with the passage of time.

Now it is 2014, and we have made a breakthrough in lithium-sulfur batteries, which is indeed far ahead.

But this does not have much impact. In Wang Donglai's plan, after lithium-sulfur batteries, there will be semi-solid batteries, solid-state batteries, graphene batteries, and finally nuclear batteries with almost unlimited energy.

Therefore, Wang Donglai was not worried about his own breakthrough. He helped foreign research teams and enhanced their strength.

According to his estimation, even if foreign teams want to replicate the success, it will take at least a year, and even faster, it will take more than half a year.

At this time, the country's powerful production capacity had already been put into the market.

With low prices and advanced technology, it will naturally gain an advantage in the market.

Even if we take a step back, by the time the West has made a breakthrough and wants to put it on the market, Wang Donglai will have already made a breakthrough in higher performance semi-solid-state batteries.

Step by step, step by step!

After repeated failures, foreign scientific research teams will only be too tired to catch up and will plummet in actual market competition.

This approach has only one weakness.

That is Wang Donglai's R&D speed, which must be fast and maintained.

But facing Wang Donglai who has a system, this weakness is not a weakness.

Instead, it became Wang Donglai's biggest advantage.

in the office.

Looking at the two papers he had just written, Wang Donglai hesitated, which was extremely rare.

Because he was thinking about something.

Which journal should these two articles be submitted to?
"natural"

"science"

As a top international journal, it enjoys a high reputation in the academic community. Being able to publish a paper here is an honor worth mentioning, no matter what country or school you are from.

This is even more true for China.

Even if it is published in a sub-journal under these two journals, it is an achievement worthy of being written about.

Western academic hegemony is not limited to the field of mathematics.

Therefore, although Wang Donglai refused to publish his mathematical papers in international mathematics journals, his breakthroughs in professional fields other than mathematics must be published in top international journals.

Because only in this way can we expand our influence faster and greater.

Once he gains a certain level of fame, Wang Donglai will, like in the field of mathematics, re-create relevant academic journals in China, put his main inventions in them, increase the impact factor, and turn them into top academic journals.

For now, this is the only way to do it.

……

Editorial board of Science.

As one of the internationally renowned scientific magazines, Science appeared in 1880, when China was still in the feudal dynasty period.

After more than a hundred years of historical accumulation, Science magazine has long become one of the top journals that scholars around the world dream of. Looking around the world, the only one that can compete with Science is Nature.

Because of his great reputation, there are countless papers submitted to Science from all over the world. With so many submissions, the competition is naturally fierce.

However, with so many submitted papers, less than 10% of the papers submitted to the editor will be accepted for publication.

All research articles must be peer reviewed before they can be published.

The strict regulations and high-quality requirements have not reduced the quality of Science or the number of submissions. Instead, it has increased.

In the editorial department of Science, there are editors and dedicated reviewers.

Because there are so many people submitting papers, it is impossible to ask the review editor to read them one by one, so they are given to the reviewers to review first.

Of course, it is impossible for someone to be a reviewer for Science magazine just randomly selected.

Each of them is a professor at a university. Although they may not be very famous, their academic knowledge and vision are definitely not bad.

Only in this way can we dig out high-quality papers from the vast number of papers and prevent them from being buried in the dust.

As a reviewer for Science, Alexander always dreams of becoming a review editor one day to decide whether a paper can be published.

That sense of accomplishment is definitely not comparable to simply selecting a paper.

He feels that his current job is like that of a worker on an assembly line, doing simple, repetitive tasks.

Most of the time, he would reject the papers sent to him.

It’s not that the quality of these papers is poor, but that the quality of these papers is not good enough for him to accept them.

Even if there is a paper that can impress him, it will often be rejected by the review editor after being submitted.

In the one year that he has been working as a reviewer, Alexander has not yet come across a paper that can be published.

In his heart, this matter has become an obsession.

Nowadays.

Alexander sat at his seat and started his day's work.

Opening the computer and looking at the large number of emails on it, Alexander sighed.

During his one year of work, he read too many papers.

In order to get their manuscripts accepted by Science, these contributors use all sorts of means, no matter what they try.

After seeing so much, Alexander has summed up a useful and effective trick.

That is, by combining the identity of the contributor, the school he graduated from and the institution he works for, as well as his submission record and other information, you can guess the quality of the paper.

If the contributor is from a developing country, attends an unknown school, has no reputation in the academic community, and cannot be found, then there is no doubt that the quality of the paper is not up to standard.

I wouldn’t say this little trick is 100% correct, but it has a 90% accuracy rate.

The reason why there is still a 10% error is based on the rigor of the researcher.

While reading the paper, Alexander complained to his colleague Hans, "I think our magazine should come up with a rule to classify these contributors."

Hans, who was reading the manuscript, asked without turning his head, "What category?"

"It's very simple. Just divide them into developed countries and developing countries, and then divide them into top universities and ordinary universities. Make a white list of academic celebrities. This way, our work will be much easier!"

Alexander expressed his thoughts.

After hearing what Alexander said, Hans stopped what he was doing, turned around, and said seriously: "First of all, Science magazine will definitely not do this. This will greatly affect the life cycle of Science magazine. Secondly, if it really does this, then we will also be unemployed!"

After saying this, Hans stopped paying attention to Alexander and went back to his work.

Alexander was stunned for a moment, then he understood what was going on. A trace of anger arose in his heart, and he vented his anger on the paper in the mailbox.

"It's a load of shit!"

"Yamamoto Heyang, the scholar from Sakura Country is simply an idiot. He dared to submit such a paper. He has no self-awareness."

"My life has been wasted on another piece of junk paper. I really want to break his head open to see if it's filled with shit!"

While quickly looking at the papers in the email, Alexander commented on the papers and greeted the contributors.

until……

"Another sensational paper using hollow carbon spheres to study lithium-sulfur batteries. How ridiculous! Let me see where the contributor is from."

As he spoke, a paper appeared on Alexander's computer.

The title is "Study on the influence of specific surface area and pore size of hollow carbon spheres on polysulfide compounds!"

At the same time, when Alexander saw the title of the paper, he also knew the identity of the contributor.

"Huaguo, Tangdu Jiaotong University, Wang Donglai?"

"So he's a scholar from China. Looks like he's another idiot who's crazy about publishing a paper!"

Alexander muttered a comment under his breath.

After saying that, he took a quick look at it and was ready to reject the paper.

Among the tips summarized by Alexander, Wang Donglai's paper fully meets the standards. There is no need to think too much about it, or even click on the paper to check it out. Just reject it directly.

However, just as Alexander was doing this.

Hans, who was standing by, asked with a look of surprise, "Alexander, where is the contributor you just mentioned from?"

When asked by Hans, Alexander stopped what he was doing, turned around and repeated, saying, "Huaguo from the East is not a professor from Peking University or Tsinghua University, but Tangdu Jiaotong University. A school named after a city is probably not a good school."

Hans' eyes moved and he asked again, "What is the name of this contributor?"

Alexander was a little surprised by Hans's question, but he still said, "Wang Donglai!"

After he finished speaking, he saw Hans' eyes light up, his expression seemed to change a little, and he suddenly felt confused.

"Alexander, think about this name carefully. I think you should have heard of this name!"

Hans reminded Alexander.

Alexander frowned and was about to deny that he knew the name when he suddenly shuddered.

At this moment, he thought of this name!

"Oh, God!"

"Hans, you're not going to tell me that this Wang Donglai is the person in the field of mathematics?"

Alexander asked in surprise, looking a little unconvinced.

Hans didn't say much, just said lightly: "He is from China, and he is from Tangdu Jiaotong University. He has the same name. It is obvious that he is definitely him!"

"I advise you to take a good look at this paper and stop judging it with your own tips on reviewing papers!"

After hearing Hans' words, Alexander did not refute. After thinking about it, he sat down in his seat, reopened the paper, and began to read it carefully word by word.

When he saw this, Alexander's heart was in turmoil.
