Bai Ye looked at the invitation letter for the Summit Forum in his hand, looked through it carefully, and asked, "Sister Wang, what is the specific situation of this forum?"

Sister Wang smiled: "The Asian Science and Technology Summit Forum is held every year, and the journals that are invited are all the most influential journals in Asia. ”

Bai Ye pondered for a moment and asked, "Can you not go?"

Sister Wang nodded: "It's not mandatory, of course you can't go, but Director Xu goes every time." ”

"After all, they are all in a circle, and they all have intersections and contacts, and a few friends who are more familiar with each other can always have some help. ”

"And...... To tell the truth, our Puze has been developing worse and worse in recent years, if it weren't for the support of those old relationships, it is estimated that the influence is getting lower and lower, and I am worried about being removed from the Asian ACIE database......"

The ACIE database is similar to SCI and EI, it is a scientific index database, and a journal is included in this database, which means that it is an ACIE article.

Although it is not as good as the three major international databases such as SCI and EI, it can be regarded as open in Asia, and it is more popular than the core of Peking University, the core of science and technology, and the core of biology in China.

Sister Wang saw that Bai Ye was a little hesitant, so she said: "Editor-in-chief, I still think I should participate, after all, the Summit Forum is also a publicity for the magazine, because every time the world media will participate in the forum, the impact factor of the journals that are rated as the top few will be improved every year, and our "Puze Latest Medicine" will also be published soon, if you can make some new friends on the forum and catch up with old friends, maybe it will be helpful for our journal." And the unexplained closure of publication is not a good thing for a magazine, and it is easy to be questioned by these databases. ”

Sister Wang's words also made sense, after Bai Ye listened to it, he thought about it carefully, mumbled, and said, "Okay, then let's go, who did Director Xu go with before? I don't know those old friends, are you familiar with them?"

Sister Wang: "I used to accompany me, don't worry about the editor-in-chief." ”

The place where the Summit Forum was held this time was at the Wanhua International Hotel in Kyoto City, so Bai Ye didn't have to run around.

On the morning of the 10th, Bai Ye and Sister Wang arrived at Wanhua International Hotel, and along the way, Bai Ye learned the basic process of the meeting through Sister Wang's introduction and the information in the invitation letter.

In the morning, there was a meeting in which the official staff of the database were invited to give presentations and presentations, as well as some information and methodological tips on how to be included in the database.

Noon is an academic dinner, in fact, it is also an opportunity to contact feelings, this is what Sister Wang said about dealing with new and old friends, after all, Bai Ye, as the editor-in-chief of Puze's latest medicine, will inevitably deal with magazines in the future, at least let people in the circle know Bai Ye's number one person.

In the afternoon, there was an award ceremony, where awards were presented to the outstanding journals of the year.

In recent years, the impact factor of "Puze Latest Medicine" has only been about 0.65 points, and it is impossible to be awarded.

The two arrived relatively early, and there were not many people at the venue after they came, and everything went relatively smoothly with the guidance of special field staff.

After the two sat down, one after another people arrived, and the official staff from the ACIE database gave a speech in the morning, a Singaporean named Li Yuran, who had worked for a period of time in the American Science Citation Index, that is, sci's database, to maintain information and journal admission standards.

After coming to ACIE, she took on the main selection work, and was very good at the selection and elimination of journals, and she was also well-known in the Asian journal industry at the age of 30.

Li Yuran was dressed in a delicate women's suit, with short hair shoulder-length and light makeup, and the whole person stood there as a cold scenery.

Hearing the introduction on the rostrum, the main person in charge of the selection of journals for inclusion and exclusion in the future is Li Yuran.

At this time, Sister Wang suddenly whispered to Bai Ye: "Editor-in-chief, it's not a good thing for us that this Li Yuran is the person in charge!"

Bai Ye frowned and asked, "Why?"

Sister Wang: "This Li Yuran is very principled in doing things, and people can't find fault with it, that's right, doing things is very serious, last year, Editor-in-Chief Xu was embarrassed by Li Yuran for a long time, because our journal results were not good, and was almost eliminated by the ACIE database, at that time, fortunately, that group of old friends helped to say the past, last year this Li Yuran was still a deputy, this year has been a leader, but my "Puze Latest Medicine" will be ...... by him"

Bai Ye was dumbfounded, he encountered this incident when he first took office? Not very good......

It is also a great honor to be included in the Asian ACIE, which is a buffer journal located between the core journals and SCI and EI, and can also be used as a standard for evaluating the professional title and the scientific research ability of the unit in Asia.

If it is eliminated by ACIE, this will undoubtedly be worse for Puze.

But...... Bai Ye thought about it, he prepared so much, not to join any ACIE, his goal is to enter the SCI index database and become a worldwide journal, and also to make a name for himself in it, improve the impact factor, and let a Chinese magazine appear in the ranks of the world's top journals.

Bai Ye smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, Sister Wang." ”

Bai Ye's harvest in the morning is still very large, at least he has a lot of understanding of the entry standards of these databases, whether a journal can be entered, the main thing is still to see the number of cited articles.

Generally looking at two years, the total citations in two years divided by the total number of journals in two years, after reaching a standard, it can be included in some data.

Just like the current average impact factor of "Puze Latest Medicine", that is, the average number of citations: 0.65 points.

To be included in SCI, it has to be about 1.2, that is, to increase the average drinking amount by nearly 0.6, and there are more than 600 articles on Puze hairstyles in two years.

This means adding at least 360 total citations, which is still very difficult for an average journal, especially for those that are cited by SCI database journals.

The standard for ACIE inclusion is 0.8, in fact, Puze's latest medicine is not qualified, otherwise it would not have been eliminated by Li Yuran's request.

However, a journal like Puze's latest medicine has a long history, and as an old national journal, everyone doesn't want to fight evil.

The morning passed quickly, but Bai Ye had been thinking about how to increase the number of citations of the articles in the journal issued this time.

The meeting ended at half past eleven in the morning, and when it was lunchtime, Bai Ye and Sister Wang walked together, and after arriving at the restaurant, it was a buffet, but the specifications were relatively high, all of which were top-notch ingredients and wine.

Bai Ye took something to eat and sat down, while Sister Wang took a middle-aged man to Bai Ye's side while walking and chatting, and introduced Bai Ye to him.

"Editor-in-chief, this is the editor-in-chief of Tsinghua Materials Engineering Application: Zhao Shuxin and Zhao Editor-in-Chief. ”

"Editor-in-Chief Zhao, this is what I told you, our new editor-in-chief, Bai Ye. ”

Zhao Shuxin is a man in his fifties, burly, like a soldier, Bai Ye hurriedly got up and took the initiative to shake hands: "Editor-in-chief Zhao, hello, I'm Bai Ye." ”

The man smiled and patted Bai Ye's shoulder: "The young man is good, he did this position at a young age, the burden is not light, Lao Xu has supported him for half his life to keep Pu Ze in his current position, you have to come on!"

Bai Ye nodded: "Don't dare to slack off! ”

Zhao Shuxin snorted: "This is for sure, but it's ...... Xiao Ye, I don't think many people are satisfied with the suspension of your Puze publication this time. ”

Bai Ye was stunned, what does this have to do with others? He asked suspiciously, "Please also ask Uncle Zhao for advice?"

Zhao Shuxin pulled Bai Ye to sit down, took a sip of tea, and said: "ACIE is different from other databases, indeed, his minimum standard is 0.8, but! ”

In fact, this concept was also put forward by Li Yuran when he came to ACIE, in order to encourage the development of Asian journals and play a role in healthy competition. ”

"And Puze's latest medicine, as a special journal that has been included, has caused a lot of dissatisfaction, and now with the suspension of publication for a month, it is estimated that many people will take advantage of the topic to play, take this opportunity to get Puze out, and after it goes out, there will be a new vacancy. ”

Bai Ye suddenly realized, I see! Bai Ye has seen too many top SCI journals, ignoring these ACIE around him, you must know that after a journal is included in ACIE, its status will be upgraded by a level, and those journals of the nature of private companies will even rise in value.

There are not a few such journals, for example, Group A actually has a journal, which is just an ordinary national journal, not the core, but if this journal becomes the core, or becomes an ACIE journal, the stock of Group A will appreciate, and the market value of the company will increase a lot.

Conflicts of interest are always the key conflicts.

During lunch, under the leadership of Zhao Shuxin, Bai Ye met several old friends of Puze one after another, and these journals are not just ACIE, many of them are indexed by SCI.

These people's attitudes towards Bai Ye and Pu Ze are not bad, after all, as the editor-in-chief of a national hospital, everyone is not looking at Bai Ye, but Pu Ze, just like after Editor-in-Chief Xu left, he became Bai Ye, or other Editor-in-Chief Yang and Editor-in-Chief Li, everyone will be good friends.

During this period, Bai Ye actually saw a familiar face, Aitian Yu?

Why is he here too?

Zhao Shuxin also saw Aida Yu and said: "Aitian Yu is not a simple person, he is a big man who is active in the academic circle, and it is also a benchmark task in Japan, and he has long served as the main position in the new technology development project department in Japan. He is also the honorary editor-in-chief of the Asian Medical New Journal. ”

It turns out that Aida Yu is the editor-in-chief of the "Asian Medical New Journal", no wonder a large number of articles were directly published on it last time, and even a special issue on hairstyles.

Xiangtian Yu also saw Bai Ye at this time, and as soon as his eyes lit up, he walked towards Bai Ye.

"Long time no see, Bai Yejun!"

Bai Ye smiled faintly and said nonchalantly: "Long time no see." ”

Xiangtian Yu snorted: "I haven't seen you for a few days, it's really impressive, Bai Yejun has actually become the editor-in-chief of "Puze's Latest Medicine", I estimate that Bai Yejun is the youngest editor-in-chief in the world! ”

Bai Ye smiled: "Well, thank you, accept your good words." ”

After speaking, the two of them touched their glasses slightly, took a sip, and there was a meeting in the afternoon, and the wine for lunch was just a cocktail with a low degree.

Aida Yu continued: "It's just that Puze's current situation is not very good, and he is going to be removed from ACIE right now, should Bai Yejun consider joining our "Asian Medical New Journal"? ”

Bai Ye was stunned for a moment: "Oh, delisting, hehe, I don't think so, I think our journal may have a qualitative leap, maybe there is a chance to compete with you on the world stage." ”

Aida Yu smiled: "Well, I'm looking forward to that day." But as far as I know, you have been out of publication for a month now, so it won't be impossible to do it, do you want to let our subordinate journals submit some manuscripts to the past?"

Bai Ye shook his head, did not continue to chat with Xiangtian Yu, but said hello to Sister Wang and left the venue.

The purpose of participating in the conference today has basically been achieved, I have met the editors-in-chief of some well-developed journals in China, and I have also understood the conditions for entering various databases, and there is no need for Bai Ye to participate in the award ceremony in the afternoon, instead of wasting time to participate in other people's award ceremonies, it is better to work hard to do what you should do.

In the afternoon, Bai Ye returned to Puze's editorial office, and everyone worked overtime in the hospital to sort out the papers, and some of them had been screened out as the content of this issue, just waiting for Bai Ye to make a decision.

At about five o'clock in the afternoon, Sister Wang called back to tell Bai Ye, and said in a depressed voice: Puze has been eliminated and removed from the ACIE database.

Bai Ye smiled and comforted him.

He had already expected this result, so he left early, and just hung up the phone, Zhao Shuxin and others called in one after another, comforted Bai Ye, and asked Bai Ye to speak directly.

Bai Ye nodded and hung up the phone.

It doesn't matter if this so-called ACIE joins or not, the main thing is that the journal will be released in five days, thinking of this, he sent this article to Keo, Carrie, Old Enders and others one after another.

Everything is ready, just a week away.

And after receiving the news, Keao will send a message to Bai Ye:

At the end of December, the SCI database counted the number of journal citations in the previous two years and re-evaluated the accepted journals. Determine the latest list of journals entered into SCI in 2018, and I can help nominate them. ”

Bai Ye's eyes lit up!

Golden opportunity.
