But it was not impossible to understand Zhou Jia’s feelings, after all, the predecessor’s ‘criminal record’ was there. Anyone with a bit of brain would not jump into this pit of his again.

 

Meng Zezhi shrugged slightly and began to look at the paper seriously, writing on it with a pen while asking, “Seeing your format, are you trying to submit it to ‘Guo Da Mathematics University of China’?”

 

 

Different journals have different formatting requirements.

 

Among the nineteen core journals of mathematics in China, the influence of Guo Da Mathematics University of China could only be ranked in the bottom few.

 

 

Master’s students are generally not at a high level of research and cannot produce any creative results. The papers they write are usually general or review papers, which basically do not enter the academic circle on academic frontier issues. Many papers are repetitive research, and there are many people who publish the research results of others after processing them twice.

 

 

Therefore schools generally do not make it too difficult for the students. For example, in Capital University, the graduation requirement for master’s degree students was only one article in a national journal or two articles in provincial journals, and there were no rigid requirements for non-professional master’s degree students.

 

“En.” Zhou Jia’s heart felt more and more uneasy.

 

She had spent two years researching before she came up with such a paper but most of her roommates did not think highly of her. Plus, she had little experience, so she did not dare to set her goal too high.

 

Meng Zezhi turned the page: “This paper of yours is quite knowledgeable. It’s a pity to send it to ‘Guo Da Mathematics University of China’!”

 

Zhou Jia’s eyes lit up, and surprise flooded her heart like a tidal wave.

 

 

But Meng Zezhi only got halfway through his sentence, and then stopped.

""

 

Hearing the rustling sound of the pen tip on the paper, Zhou Jia’s heart just stopped in her throat.

 

Don’t know how long it took, but Meng Zezhi stopped writing and closed his pen cap. Then he handed the paper back to Zhou Jia and said, “I suggest you submit this paper to Applied Mathematics, and follow what I have written on it to improve it properly. Of course, if you are really unsure, it is fine to submit it to the Quarterly Mathematics Publication.”

 

Applied Mathematics and the Quarterly Mathematics Publication were of a somewhat higher standard than the Chinese Journal of Mathematics to which the predecessor had submitted.

 

Meng Zezhi paused and said, “With this paper, the national scholarship this year will definitely be yours.”

 

One must know that the tuition fee for each major at the master’s level of the mathematics department at Capital University was only 10,000 a year, and a national scholarship would be 20,000 yuan.

 

The reason why he said this sentence was just to tell Zhou Jia that he had no intention of stealing her research results, so as to teach her to revise her thesis at ease.

 

It could not be helped, who let these students of his do not trust him now.

 

 

Sure enough, after hearing this, Zhou Jia’s eyes flashed slightly, and her tone became more sincere: “Okey, thank you, Professor!”

 

“Well.”

 

As he was speaking, the phone on his desk rang. Meng Zezhi picked up the phone while waving his hand to indicate that Zhou Jia could go.

 

Zhou Jia nodded and left the office with her paper in her arms.

 

 

“Hello, Professor Meng?” An imposing voice of a middle-aged man came from the other end of the phone.

 

“Dean Fu.”

 

“Come to my office, I have something to talk to you about.”

 

“Okay.”

 

Hanging up the phone, Meng Zezhi stood up, took the suit jacket that was resting on the chair, put it on, and went up to the fifth floor.

 

When he reached the door of the Dean’s office, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

 

“Please come in.”

 

“Dean Fu.”

 

Meng Zezhi pushed the door in.

“Here you are.” Dean Fu raised his head and pointed to the chair opposite him, “Sit down.”

 

He was not in the mood to talk to Meng Zezhi about all those trivial matters. He looked at Meng Zezhi and got straight to the point: “I’ve heard all about your family matters.”

 

 

Meng Zezhi’s breathing slowed slightly.

 

It was true that good things did not come out of the door, but evil things travel a thousand miles.

 

This must be Chen Yinglong’s handiwork again!

 

“As an outsider, I am indeed not qualified to interfere in your family’s affairs. But you should know how badly this matter will affect Capital University once it gets out.” Dean Fu slapped the table heavily, with a serious face and a whiff of resentment.

 

Meng Zezhi did not say anything.

 

 

How it fell in Dean Fu’s eyes was a look of cunnigness.

 

Dean Fu became angry and his heart also cooled down. He said, “You haven’t produced a decent result in the past two years, and the students and teachers have a lot of opinions about you. The meaning of the above is, this year you will not be given the enrollment quota, as for other works that can also be put on hold ……”

 

 

As a university professor, doctoral supervisor, but even the enrollment quota is lost, if this spreads out, don’t know how he will be laughed at by his peers.

It was evident that the school was really planning to give up on him, otherwise it wouldn’t have hit him in the face like this.

 

Chen Yinglong was indeed very calculative. In this way, he destroyed his foundation a little bit. Without the shelter of Capital University, it’s no wonder that the predecessor did not even have a chance to struggle when the academic fraud scandal broke out.

 

If the predecessor were here, he would have exploded in anger, but it was Meng Zezhi who was sitting here at the moment. The reduced workload meant that he had more time to work on Goldbach’s Conjecture and an effective drug for AIDS.

 

 

That’s right, a special drug for AIDS.

 

This was something Meng Zezhi had thought about for a long time.

 

He remembered that AIDS, which had made countless people scared just at the mention of its name, was officially classified as a curable disease when he was forty years old. It was an old professor at the Capital Medical School who had tackled the problem.

 

 

After the patent expired, the professor’s descendants donated his research manuscript to the National Museum, and Meng Zezhi was fortunate enough to read a photocopy of the manuscript.

 

Meng Zezhi had a vague impression of the general procedure. Since he was standing on the shoulders of giants, Meng Zezhi estimated that he was at least 60% sure that he could reproduce the medicine, but it would just take a lot of time.

 

This is where Meng Zezhi’s confidence lies.

 

“Got it.” He said.

 

Seeing Meng Zezhi’s unconcerned look, Dean Fu was surprised for a moment, as he thought Meng Zezhi would make a fuss over it.

 

He had already prepared himself for this, but Meng Zezhi just said ‘got it’ and left it at that?

 

 

After being surprised, Dean Fu could not help but shake his head.

 

In his opinion, this was a sign that Meng Zezhi was already wasted.

 

Dean Fu was also not feeling good but he had already advised him, and Meng Zezhi didn’t change his ways. Now, such a thing has happened. Thinking back on it, it doesn’t feel good.

 

 

He simply waved his hand and said, “All right, I’ve said everything I need to say, you can go back.”

 

“Okay.”
