Doctor: It's reasonable to perform surgery on yourself.

"means?"

Chen Song's face darkened and he said: "Yes, if it's just for me personally, I have nothing to fear. But...even my lover, my students, and my lover's students will all be affected!"

Implicating the nine clans is the ultimate punishment.

What CNKI uses is a method similar to "Killing the Nine Tribes". Anyone who dares to stand on the opposite side will have everyone in his social network blacklisted!

Chen Songdao: "My thesis has not been taken down, but, my lover, all the hard work has been blocked. The articles of dozens of master's students and more than a dozen doctoral students I have taught have also been deleted by CNKI .

"This means that it will be extremely difficult for them to find a job in the future. As for promotion... it is even more impossible!"

Without thesis, there is no future.

And CNKI monopolizes most journals in academia, including almost all the most influential domestic publications... Being targeted by CNKI is tantamount to being insulated from academics and scientific research.

Xu Qiu's expression was stern.

He almost forgot this!

"Professor Linde and the others..."

"Yes, Professor Linde is okay. He and his wife have retired for many years. But one of the whistleblowers is only in his forties, and his wife is the deputy director of a hospital. Because the paper was blocked, he was originally published last year. I was able to promote the director, but it turned out to be completely hopeless!”

“HowNet’s tentacles are too long.”

"Yeah..." Chen Song smiled self-deprecatingly.

This is CNKI!

There are many similar behemoths in Daxia, such as Tiandu University Founder, Qinghua University Ziguang, Tongfang, etc., and their influence radiates across the country.

But the only one that makes people look down on them and wish they could close down on the spot is CNKI, which is run by Qinghua University!

It used to be a national knowledge infrastructure, integrating the general knowledge resource library of Daxia, and its founder came from Qinghua University.

In the last century, the Internet had just entered China. At that time, students and researchers who wanted to check information and write papers had to go to the library in person and search from a vast sea of ​​books.

The founder at that time saw the idea of ​​a digital library, so he proposed it to the senior management, and immediately received unanimous support from the leaders.

The project was formally established in 1995.

In 1997, the project became independent from Qinghua University and was renamed Daxia Academic Journal Electronic Magazine.

In 1999, the World Bank mentioned the concept of "national infrastructure" in the World Development Report. This novel vocabulary immediately inspired the founder. That year, he proposed to the country the construction of a general academic knowledge platform in Daxia. The suggestions were taken seriously by the country’s top leaders.

The prototype of CNKI was thus established!

The founder struck while the iron was hot and immediately formulated technical specifications, which were soon ordered to be implemented by the State Administration of Press and Publication as an industry standard, and the national standard was officially born!

The standards had just been released, and Qinghua University joined in immediately.

Subsequently, other universities responded one after another. At that time, there was not much fighting in the academic circle. All universities shared their academic resources for free and gave them full power to "HowNet" for use.

It is precisely this move that allowed the small CNKI to quickly become a giant in the academic resource market, far beyond the reach of Wanfang, VIP and others.

In its early days, CNKI had strong support from the state and academia, and various approvals were given. CNKI was once included in the National Torch Plan.

It was not until later that, after controlling the largest paper storage in Daxia, and the database shared by major universities and academic journals for free, it also consolidated its position and began to show its scythe to its former allies.

Database usage fees are soaring year by year; astonishing pricing for plagiarism checking; and papers are included at will, set prices without authorization, and swallow up all the profits. The most generous reward for the author of the paper is a "100 yuan CNKI account stored value card" !

…

Chen Song sneered and said: "The price of CNKI is notoriously sky-high. The world's academic community has been struggling with CNKI for a long time. Even the wealthy Tiandu University despises CNKI for being expensive. Although they have ordered CNKI this year, they have already published it publicly. If the price increases next year, Tiandu University will also abandon CNKI!”

Tiandu University and Qinghua University are top universities in the eyes of Daxia students.

The two have always been fighting for the top university in Daxia, and neither one is convinced by the other.

The resources and funds received from the Ministry of Education are also increasing every year.

When comparing universities, one of the most important factors is scientific research capabilities. It is actually impossible for Tiandu University to give up CNKI, otherwise countless students and teachers may go crazy.

However, we also have to express our opinions on the uncontrolled price increase trend of Zhiwang Manga...

As for Qinghua University.

Because CNKI is Qinghua Holdings...

In this year's procurement expense rankings, Tiandu Normal University ranks first, and Qinghua University ranks second. Qinghua University doesn't care how much money it spends, and spends tens of billions at random to support its own business.

Chen Song said: "I checked CNKI. Behind it, one is a school-run enterprise of Qinghua University. You can understand that the achievements are Qinghua's own. The other two are both listed companies Qitongfang and Qinghua itself.

“Both of these are owned by Tsinghua Holdings Co., Ltd.

"There is also the last controlling shareholder, Tongfang CNKI. This is interesting. The parent company behind Tongfang CNKI is CNKI International Holdings, which is a company registered in the Cayman Islands.

“A former public welfare organization finally adopted the VIE structure.”

Xu Qiu paused and said, "So, CNKI is actually 100% controlled by Qinghua?"

Chen Song smiled and said, "Yes, Qinghua's controlling shareholders seem to be scattered, but in the end they are all Qinghua Holdings Co., Ltd., which is neither a private enterprise nor a state-owned enterprise."

Xu Qiu was stunned for a moment.

According to Chen Song, if there is only one Qinghua behind CNKI, then Qinghua is completely a state asset, and the money that goes into Qinghua is no different from the money that goes into the national treasury.

So it seems that it is not quite accurate to say that CNKI uses its monopoly position to reap the whole country...

Chen Song smiled and shook his head and said, "Doctor Xu, you are wrong. Judging from the controlling shareholders alone, the money seems to have gone into the pockets of Qinghua and the national treasury.

"However, although Qinghua is responsible for the operation and fee collection of CNKI, don't forget that there are two listed companies among the controlling shareholders!

"The major shareholder is a state-owned enterprise, but its share is still only 36%! So several listed companies can still make a lot of money from it!

"The profit method of listed companies is too simple. As long as CNKI makes enough money and its ability to make money is strong enough, there will be more and more business, and the stock price will generally rise, and several listed companies can share the money!

"To put it simply, this is a deformed enterprise that is generally controlled by the state, but has long been infiltrated by private interests!"

Xu Qiu said firmly.

Chen Song said it very clearly. It is precisely because the more money CNKI makes, the greater the benefits that private individuals can get, so CNKI's eating habits are getting uglier and uglier!
