Chapter 80 Paper Submission

followed Xu Mengqing to the third floor, and Liu Feng finally met the Dean Zhao Liqian Zhao of the Grammar School.

Among the more than a dozen colleges of the University, only the dean of the Grammar School is a lady, which is absolutely outstanding among a group of men.

Liu Feng didn't know much about this Dean Zhao, after all, they had no contact at all before.

Following Xu Mengqing into the office, Liu Feng saw that this Zhao Yuan was sitting on an office chair correcting something. Looking up and quietly looking at it, well, a middle-aged woman in her 50s, with a slender build, short hair, and a pair of rimless glasses on the high bridge of her nose

"Teacher, I brought it to you. ”

Zhao Liqian nodded: "It's hard work, you go down." ”

Xu Mengqing withdrew from the office, leaving Liu Feng alone.

So, Liu Feng stepped forward and greeted: "Hello Professor Zhao, I am Liu Feng from Yinghua 0907. ”

"Well, young man, you sit down first, and I'll finish this little thing in my hand in a moment. Zhao Liqian raised her eyes and glanced at Liu Feng, and said slightly apologetically.

"Okay. ”

……

After a few minutes, Zhao Liqian finally put down the signature pen in her hand, packed up the documents, and looked Liu Feng up and down: "You are Liu Feng's classmate, no wonder Principal Tan values it so much, it is really a talent." ”

"Where, where. Liu Feng touched his head embarrassedly, and praised him again, how embarrassed, "Professor, this is the material I brought, you can see if there is anything missing, and I will prepare it when I go back." ”

Liu Feng handed the document in his hand to Zhao Liqian's desk.

Zhao Liqian took the information, and then looked at it carefully.

"Copy of ID card, patent application report...... Well, you're all set. After reading the information, and then loading it up in a folder, she stared at Liu Feng and nodded: "Young man, you are very good." To tell the truth, there are very few patents applied for by our teachers in Dalian, and people like you who applied for them during college are really the first in the world, not to mention that there are 8 patents at a time! You can rest assured, our grammar school will definitely apply for you as soon as possible. ”

"Then it's a trouble teacher. ”

……

Under normal circumstances, it takes a week for a paper to be submitted to the editorial office of Nature Chemistry to be technically edited and then entered into the peer review process.

After all, as one of the world's two top academic journals, Nature receives thousands of manuscripts every day, and even if the vast majority of them are 'watered' papers, they need to be carefully reviewed.

However, Liu Feng's 8 papers, on the third day after submission, received good news from there, and the papers passed the technology

The editor's review will soon enter the peer review stage.

It all started that day.

"Oh my God, this guy has submitted 8 papers!" exclaimed Mike, who was in charge of checking the manuscript in the editorial office of Nature Chemistry.

Campbell, who was sitting at the next table, was startled by Mike and accidentally stirred the coffee, spilling a piece on the table.

Quickly wiped it clean with a tissue, Campbell looked at the guy next to him dissatisfied: "Hey, man, you scared me! These are newly bought pants, and I almost suffered!"

"Hey, old man, come over here, this guy has submitted 8 papers at once! It's incredible. Mike ignored Campbell's pants and greeted himself.

Standing up with his coffee, Campbell curiously leaned over to Mike's computer, looked at the papers packed and unzipped on the screen, and was interested: "It's really incredible...... 8 essays, I'm sure, this guy is either a fool or a madman!"

In general, it is best for clients to submit no more than three manuscripts to the same journal in a month. On the one hand, the editors of the magazine have to deal with 100 manuscripts a day and have limited energy, and on the other hand, the excessive submission of manuscripts will lead to the misunderstanding that these manuscripts have been eliminated by other magazines even if they have not been published.

Therefore, experienced people generally do not submit too many manuscripts to the magazine at one time.

"GOOD! I just like guys like that!" As a rule of thumb, Mike thought that these papers were 90% of the time they were filled in, so it was likely to save him a lot of time.

I didn't expect to take a closer look, but I gradually frowned.

"The desalination rate is as high as 99.99%, the minimum working pressure is 2MPa, the flow rate is up to 3 cubic meters/square meter/hour, and the reusability time is 2 years?...... It's incredible, it's almost double the efficiency of desalination and reduce the cost by at least 30%!" Mike finally exclaimed in surprise.

Campbell, who had already retracted into his chair and sat down, came back to Mike's computer and craned his neck to watch.

"If that's true, I'm afraid there will be an earthquake in academia!"

Yes, the biggest problem restricting the promotion of seawater desalination is the cost, and every year, in the academic issue of seawater desalination, the cost can be reduced by 3%, which is already a sensational achievement.

Campbell learned that more than 30 years have passed since the use of polyamide composites in the desalination project, and the cost reduction is less than 30 percent compared to the initial one, and this includes transportation and energy efficiency improvements.

This guy has reduced the cost by 30% at one time, which is terrifying!

"Are these 8 papers all polyamide films?"

"Yes, although not all of them can be reduced by 30%, but in terms of salt removal rate, durability, etc., several other papers have merit, you say, inventing so many new varieties at once, this guy, is it God's favorite?"

The two editors stared at several papers for a long time, and neither of them could make up their minds.

Campbell thought for a moment and asked, "Man, what do you think of these papers?"

Mike frowned: "I don't know, I can't guarantee the correctness of the paper...... If, if it is true, in the field of desalination, there will definitely be a tornado. It's just that, Feng Liu, this guy, have you heard of it? It should be just a nobody, I really can't guarantee it...... What about your opinion?"

"I think if there is no problem with the format of the paper itself, it is better to leave it to the academic editors to worry about, that is a headache for the experts!" Campbell shrugged his shoulders and looked innocent.

"OK!" Mike also shook his head, indeed, this shouldn't be a headache for him, anyway, he is just a small technical editor, although he knows some academic things, but he only knows a little about it, "Who do you think is more appropriate?" "The research group of Professor Jeffrey Grossman of the School of Materials Science and Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has a deep research on polyamide composite reverse osmosis membrane materials, and it is said that they have been working on a new desalination material recently, I think it should be more appropriate to contact him. ”

Mike thought about it, and finally thought of this expert in desalination, since he has studied polyamide composite materials, then the professional knowledge and academic experience should be very rich, and the key is that now they have found another way, research new materials, should not hinder the technology of polyamide.

nodded: "Very good, then do as you say!"
