Ronghua Medical University was a junior college a few years ago, and a private university a few years ago. The school is trying hard to improve its popularity, but the foundation is too thin, the teachers are too poor, and now this level has been called leapfrog development, and it is too difficult to improve it.

The school's president, Ouyang Cheng, is very ambitious, trying to elevate a municipal university to the provincial level in his lifetime. But in the past few years, the economy of Tianyang City has been terrible, and the allocation to the school is a drop in the bucket. The biggest face of the school is a biology laboratory jointly built with the Hopkins Medical Center in the United States, which can only go out to brush up on the face and recruit more students.

And the joint laboratory publishes some papers every year. Good papers are naturally published abroad, the next level is published in China, the second level is in the province, and the second level is ......, as if there are no professional biology and medical journals in the city, so they can only be published in the school journal.

The school magazine is usually a place for students to brush their faces, but because the papers are basically worthless, they are only published once every three months. Every time the school prints a hundred copies, I can't send out this amount because no one reads it!

The school magazine once published such a nonsense paper as 'On how many ways to die mice', can anyone be expected to take it seriously?

President Ouyang Cheng was distressed by this, so he personally served as the director of the editorial board of the school journal and strictly controlled the quality of the papers. As a result, the school magazine has stopped two issues because it is really not enough to make up the number of papers. Others are not stupid, and they are really reluctant to publish good papers in your school magazine!

"Headmaster, finally someone has submitted again!" The assistant principal happily ran in, holding a small envelope in his hand, "Thank goodness, we finally have enough papers to publish a school magazine." ”

"Isn't it 'the effect of pepper on the taste of roasted pigeon'? Don't show me this kind of broken paper. Principal Ouyang was also annoyed, he mobilized all the teachers and students of the school to submit articles to the school magazine, and as a result, a bunch of students teased him and made some nonsense papers.

Someone even submitted a paper entitled 'The relationship between the angle of stool entering the pit and the splashing of water'. Seeing this kind of paper, Principal Ouyang hated to beat the students who wrote the paper out of the.

"No, no." Since the last time the principal went crazy because of the 'poop paper', the assistant principal will preview the submitted paper, and you must not make a pee thing out again, "The title this time is very high." ”

"Oh, I'll see." Principal Ouyang put on his glasses and was very satisfied with the title when he saw it, "Genetically modified organism enzymes? Well...... that's interesting, tracking the frontiers of science. ”

The whole paper is about 2,000 words, and I can read it in a few minutes, and to put it bluntly, it is a new technology and new application. But ......, is this paper reliable? Principal Ouyang can't be sure! He's a principal, not a biologist.

Look at the contributor again, it is Xu Guoqiang. The corresponding author and the first author are all him, and his pseudonym is Xu Guoqiang's Biochemical Laboratory.

For this Associate Professor Xu Guoqiang Xu, President Ouyang has an impression, and he is the first unreliable person in the school. In terms of academic ability, he still has two brushes, but this person is making too much trouble in his personal behavior.

This guy once gave himself a shot because he didn't have the money to buy chimpanzees for drug experiments. As a result, he was hospitalized for half a year, and his life was almost over, and he also asked the school to pay a sum of money, which finally led to his wife divorcing him.

"It's miserable, it's miserable! The dignified associate professor actually wants to post the paper to the school journal. Principal Ouyang couldn't help but sympathize, "Alas, let's publish it." Anyway, it's a school magazine, and there are submissions from associate professors who can support the scene. ”

The school magazine is usually published by students and ordinary lecturers, and it is really eye-catching for an associate professor to squeeze in. People are naturally sympathetic to the weak, and the associate professor has ended up in such a miserable situation that the news spreads. Originally, more than 100 copies of the printing could not be completed, but this time it was rushed to ask for it. Everyone wants to see how miserable the associate professor is.

However, as soon as the school magazine was opened, ninety percent of the people couldn't understand what Associate Professor Xu's paper was about, and even fewer of the people who could understand it were interested. But after all, there are still people who know Xu Guoqiang.

"Isn't this paper about new applications? Go verify it. Howard still remembers Xu Guoqiang. As a professor at the Hopkins Medical Center in the United States, this Roshan foreigner has a big problem with his good memory, Xu Guoqiang once embarrassed him, and he will remember it for a lifetime.

Seeing that Xu Guoqiang was so miserable that he published his paper in the school magazine, Howard did not forget to step forward. He found a research dog in his laboratory and asked to verify the authenticity of the paper.

But this matter was just an order, and Howard himself forgot about it after he finished speaking. In his opinion, Xu Guoqiang is already an old dog who has been defeated by him, and he no longer has the value of paying attention.

After the verification was completed, the scientific research dog who did the verification felt that this paper on "Genetically Modified Enzymes" seemed to be a bit interesting, so he cited its conclusions in his paper, which was regarded as a secondary research and development, and then submitted it to a provincial journal.

More people read the provincial-level publications, and many people were also very interested in the conclusions of the second study, and the results were correct after verification, so they carried out three research and development, continued to publish papers, and went to national journals.

After being published in a national-level journal, there are more researchers, and genetically modified organisms are currently a hot topic, and many people have carried out further extended research on the basis of three research and development, once again proving the correctness of the paper in the original school journal.

For a paper, the deeper the research and the more citations, the greater its value. However, the official publication of formal journals takes a long time, and in the past it had to be repeatedly revised and verified, but now it is often circulated in electronic form before the official publication. What's even more convenient is that some internal forums and researchers' private emails are delivered faster.

This informal approach, while less rigorous, has become an important means of obtaining information. More than half a month after the publication of the school magazine, the information about the "new application of genetically modified organism enzymes" began to spread slowly, although few people knew about it, but its actual effect was slowly known.

Until one night, a transatlantic call came to Professor Howard's mobile phone. A well-known professor at the Hopkins Medical Center in the United States hurriedly asked on the phone: "Howard, you teach at a place called 'Ronghua Medical University' in China, right?" ”

Howard looked at the clock, and it was two o'clock in the morning. He got up from the bed groggily and said unhappily, "Yes, it's been nearly two years since I was sent to this damn place. When will you transfer me back, I'm fed up with the ...... here. ”

Howard had just complained a few words, but a more urgent voice came from the other end of the phone, "Where do you have a biology professor named Guoqiang Xu?" ”

"Oh...... yes, there's such a person." Howard had forgotten Xu Guoqiang a little, and he was about to slander a few words, but he heard a shout ringing on the phone: "Congratulations to this professor on my behalf, I am very happy to read his paper and verify his results." He's done an amazing piece of research, it's amazing! ”

Howard, who was originally groggy, immediately came to his senses, but he was stunned again!

Terrific research? Is there such a thing? (To be continued.) )
