Chapter 741 - Self-Explanatory

It took a long time to return from Tsinghua Garden to Yan Garden. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Along the way, Dean Liu pedaled hard, sweating profusely.

Along the way, Academician Cai read the book vigorously and concentrated.

Dean Liu almost collapsed, and he wanted to throw the bicycle out.

Academician Cai complained dissatisfiedly: "The more you ride, the more you shake, my eyes are going to be spent, ride steadily." ”

"I ......" Dean Liu was speechless.

"Ride steady. Professor Cai admonished again, and once again immersed himself in his own world.

Dean Liu snorted, hummed and continued to work hard, the beads of sweat on his nose dripped into a string, he was like a model worker who did not ask for anything in return, hoping that Professor Cai's accidental glance would reveal his efforts.

However, until he arrived at the lab, Professor Cai did not look up at him again.

As the saying goes, there are only tired cattle, not ploughed fields.

Dean Liu silently sent Professor Cai into the warm and comfortable laboratory, and sat in the corner by himself, panting for breath, his lungs as if they were on fire.

The three chapters of "Genomics", Professor Cai grabbed and read it for two days.

He went back to the lab for a meeting, went to the administration building for a meeting, and continued to watch when he got home.

The content of the three chapters of genomics is actually not much, a total of more than 20 pages, and when I see the back, the genomics in pure English is all cooked by Professor Cai's back, but he is still reading.

In the eyes of scholars like Professor Cai, pure English academic journals are actually easier to read, especially academic works at the forefront of scientific research, English exclusive nouns are relatively uniform, Chinese translation is not necessarily, encountering a door Hughes Chang Kaishen and the like, but it takes unnecessary effort.

Yang Rui's "Genomics" is undoubtedly quite advanced cutting-edge reading, and the three chapters selected by Professor Cai, even if viewed separately, are quite high-end papers, and Professor Cai spent a day, but still not fully verified.

The next day, Professor Cai decided to use the researchers in the laboratory to check the data.

Later generations of scholars can read academic works very simply, put a computer, open the journal website, or directly connect to the library of the university, and enter keywords if they encounter any problems, which is the most labor-intensive part, that is, constantly changing keywords, and reading itself.

Of course, particularly cutting-edge academic works are like reading papers, and theoretically need experimental verification, but unless they are scholars in the field and direction, or have encountered the paradox of conviction, otherwise, ordinary people will not do experimental verification when reading academic works, and it is too troublesome on the one hand, and the credibility of academic works is often higher than that of journal papers.

The relationship between essays and academic works is like the difference between martial arts moves and martial arts routines. Moves focus on their own lethality, while routines focus on the connections between moves.

Of course, in order to make the routines work better, sometimes it is necessary to develop new moves in the routines.

If he were to look at the academic works of other scholars, Professor Cai would not spend time verifying them, but Yang Rui's works are different.

On the one hand, he is his own person from Peking University, and on the other hand, Professor Cai feels very good after reading Yang Rui's paper.

As a result, the scientific research Wang who was transferred by Professor Cai was miserable.

The original work naturally cannot be stopped, and even the work progress cannot be slow, because the laboratory is one ring after another, and if you are slow, it will not affect yourself or an experimental group, so the scientific research Wang who is transferred out must still maintain the original work progress.

And the work that is transferred out will naturally have to be completed overtime.

84 years of experimental verification, not to mention the part of doing experiments, is the part of searching for information, and people who can be annoyed don't want it.

The worst of these is Zhao Xuanjin, a graduate student under Professor Cai. Because he is a senior scientific researcher, Zhao Xuanjin took on a large part of the workload, leading two undergraduates to work overtime for four or five hours a day in the library, hoping to find as much information as possible about Yang Rui's "Genomics".

In the era when there were no computers, this was a hard job, especially for evidence, because it didn't involve the references at the back of the text, and it was a terrible workload, and you had to rely on books to find corroboration, or purely from memory.

Zhao Xuanjin was busy for three days, and he couldn't do it.

But he thought of a solution.

He asked several friends, and then at noon on Wednesday, he squatted behind the dormitory building of the biology department and waited until Yang Rui appeared.

"Yang Rui, classmate Yang, please wait. Zhao Xuanjin waited for four hours, and his legs were numb, but he finally saw Yang Rui, rushed out, and couldn't wait to stop him.

Yang Rui had two chicken legs in his hand and looked at Zhao Xuanjin curiously.

"Yang Rui, that ...... I'm really sorry, I have something I want to trouble you, well, it's a big deal, but I do want your help......" Zhao Xuanjin became more and more nervous the more he said, and hurriedly said: "I am a graduate student in the Department of Biology, a sophomore this year, and I am studying for graduate school with Professor Cai." ”

"Oh, Professor Cai asked you to come?" Yang Rui asked.

"No, Professor Cai didn't ask me to come. Zhao Xuanjin hurriedly denied. ‘

"But what does it have to do with Professor Cai?"

"This ...... It cannot be said that it is related to Professor Cai, nor can it be said that it has nothing to do with Professor Cai. ”

"Let's get straight to the point, the food will be cold in a while. Yang Rui raised the thing in his hand and said, "Otherwise, talk while walking." ”

"Oh...... Okay, okay. Zhao Xuanjin followed Yang Rui side by side, turned a little sideways, and said, "I have a task in my hand, which is to read your book "Genomics"......"

"Is it good-looking?" Yang Rui asked suddenly.

"It's a bit complicated. Zhao Xuanjin did not use difficult to describe, complex is the best description.

Yang Rui nodded slightly and said, "You continue." ”

"Well, Professor Cai gave me a task, which is to analyze some conclusions and arguments in your book, it is easy to have references, but there are some parts without references, I am very unfamiliar, I don't know how to find them, I thought, can you provide me with some information, I mean, the title of the book is fine. ”

"Of course, I can provide you with some titles. Yang Rui said very generously, and said: "But I'm afraid I can't provide everything you want." ”

"Ahh

Yang Rui shrugged his shoulders and said, "A lot of things are written by me, not from a certain book, so ......"

"Then how do you prove it. ”

"Some of the more complex parts, I'm going to leave them in the appendix to prove, and the easier parts, I mean the self-explanatory parts, I don't think there is a need to prove them in particular. What Yang Rui said is a common phenomenon in academic works, and the answer (omitted) is not only found in the back of the primary and secondary school study booklets, but also often appears in academic works.

Authors who prefer to write answers (omitted) at the back of their workbooks are often attacked by "self-explanatory" arguments during their academic careers.

There are always some inferences or arguments that do not need to be explained, they are self-explanatory, just like in the proof of junior high school mathematics, you can directly write "two straight lines are parallel, and the same angle is equal", don't argue why, everyone knows this self-evident inference.

However, the problem will always expand, and the degree of self-explanatory will become more and more self-evident, so there will always be some self-evident that needs to be demonstrated.

Some people have found problems, such as the advent of non-Euclidean geometry, which makes the parallel theorem ineffective in some contexts.

More often, however, more tragically, self-evident arguments are often correct after a long period of argumentation.

This is a double whammy of hard work and IQ confidence.

No one really wants to be a diligent person who can make up for their mistakes.

Zhao Xuanjin was still young, and when he was in middle school, there were few answers in the exercise book, and after he entered university, he rarely had the opportunity to argue the arguments and arguments of academic monographs......

Therefore, he was not prepared for Yang Rui's answer.

Ten seconds later, Zhao Xuanjin suddenly realized what kind of miserable situation he was in.

According to Professor Cai's request, he wants to prove all the self-evident arguments!

Zhao Xuanjin's eyes were dark, and he only felt that life was boring.

"I'm sorry, I'll go back to the dormitory first, and I'll write the title of the book in a while, you can just come and get it. Yang Rui politely said goodbye to Zhao Xuanjin, turned around, and took advantage of the temperature of the chicken thigh, quickly took a bite and munched on it with satisfaction.

Zhao Xuanjin looked at the chicken leg that was missing a lot and swayed in Yang Rui's hand, and only felt that he was more tragic than it.
