"Did you receive their submissions?"

"I haven't seen it yet, what about you?"

"No, however, the phone call from Director Mei of Zhongmu has already come, so it's hard to refuse. ”

"That's right, I also received a call from Director Mei. ”

"Why is the middle pastor so active?"

"They want embryo transfer from cows, and they want to go crazy. ”

"I don't know what Yang Rui's paper is about. ”

"It can't be regarded as Yang Rui's paper, it is the researcher under him. ”

"This is the trouble, if Yang Rui signs it, blindfolded, I will pass it for him. ”

"Yang Rui should be the corresponding author. ”

"The corresponding author and the first author are not the same after all. ”

The three editors of animal husbandry journals sat down together and naturally talked about Yang Rui and his Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory.

The academic circle is small, the biological circle is even smaller, and the circle of animal husbandry is naturally small and small.

The total number of animal husbandry journals in the country is thirty or fifty, and if you remove the local journals that entertain themselves and the special issues of little-known universities, they are qualified to be regarded as academic journals.

Even if the periodical publishers are not in Beijing or Beijing, they will eventually set up a branch office in Beijing, which is not only convenient for information exchanges, but more importantly, most of China's academic resources are concentrated in Beijing, and the Beijing branch can easily communicate with the academic circles in Beijing.

Zheng Sleeve of the Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine, Kong Xinde of the Chinese Journal of Animal Husbandry and Zhang Xiangmiao of the China Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine all graduated from Beijing Agricultural University, and they naturally walked together in the same industry, sitting up from time to time to exchange information with each other.

Beijing Agricultural University is the predecessor of China Agricultural University, and in the past 85 years, it is one of the best universities in China. First of all, it has a good background, and it was formed by the merger of Peking University Agricultural College, Tsinghua Agricultural College and North China University Agricultural College. In 54 years, a total of six key universities were approved in the country, and Beijing Agricultural University was one of them, and the degree of cattle fork was three grades higher than that of 985+211 in later generations. By the 84 years of reform, a total of ten key universities were approved in the country, and Beinong was still one-tenth.

After graduating from such a school and being assigned to a periodical agency, it should be said that it is a bit of a loss. However, as far as the periodical is concerned, Zheng Sleeve, Kong Xinde, and Zhang Xiangmiao are undoubtedly reserve cadres, and they can even be described as tiger classes -- they will be filled when they encounter vacancies, and it is almost inevitable that they will rise to the top or something.

It is also because of this that the three of them have a strong elite understanding of taking the society as their home and regarding the development of the periodical society and the industry as their own responsibility -- if nothing else, they have a great chance of becoming the boss of the periodical society.

This gathering was held entirely for the Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory.

For the animal husbandry circle, Yang Rui can be said to be famous, although he has not published a single paper, but in the biological academic community, there are a few people who do not know Yang Rui.

The Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory is at the other extreme.

Municipal laboratories are actually the lowest grade of research institutions, and the district-level laboratories in Beijing are equivalent to the city-level laboratories at the prefectural and municipal levels.

The level of papers in district-level laboratories is usually below the lower limit.

Therefore, when encountering a more powerful journal, when you see the name of the city or district level, you will directly reject it.

In the same way, the researchers in the district-level laboratories who know a little more will not touch this mold.

When it comes to fairness and justice, respect and respect, this way of doing things is naturally not good, but the real society is not the relationship between fairness and justice, respect and respect.

Moreover, it is a waste of time for editors of above-average journals and peer-reviewed editors to read journals from district-level labs.

The annual funding of your laboratory may not even be 500 yuan, let alone a laboratory, and it is not enough to subscribe to journals and professional books in the industry, so what kind of papers do you write?

For example, Yang Rui's Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory, with Yang Rui's great name, and finally plus the infrastructure costs, it also got a fund of 60,000 yuan, excluding the expenses, and the scientific research funds of 8 researchers for a year, that is, two or three thousand yuan, definitely do not exceed the level of 5,000 yuan.

As a laboratory with no accumulation, this money really can't make anything, buy a high-magnification microscope and eat porridge.

And ordinary district-level laboratories may not even get one-tenth of this money, that is, they just live on a brand.

For example, the top laboratories in the field such as "Journal of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine", "Chinese Journal of Animal Husbandry", and "Chinese Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine" are naturally respectful of such district-level laboratories, and even if one or two papers meet their admission standards, Zheng Sleeve and others will reject them.

Foreign periodicals are actually the same, if you want to build a reputation, the first task is to distinguish between classes.

Municipal laboratories are the lowest class of research institutions in China.

Yang Rui, however, is the highest-ranking group of Chinese researchers.

Ordinary academic bureaucrats or civil servants have no way of understanding this, but there is no one in the circle who does not know this.

The combination of Yang Rui and the Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory has become a difficult problem to solve.

It seems to make sense to look at the quality of the paper to decide.

Judging the quality of a paper can be a head-scratching question.

Obviously bad papers and obviously good papers are not scratching heads, however, most of the papers are actually on the middle side.

In other words, it is always a common phenomenon that the data in the paper is doubtful, the arguments and arguments are doubtful, and the conclusions of the paper are not convincing.

Three peer reviewers, two in favor of one against, are even more frequent.

This doesn't make a difference to a normal paper. However, when a paper is in the spotlight, the pressure on editors increases.

Editors themselves are not academic, but they are the ones who ultimately decide whether the paper can be published or not, so the so-called mean dimension becomes wider.

Zhang Xiangmiao was the most sensitive to this problem, and after drinking half of the tea, he said quite distressedly: "Yang Rui is not a good talker, you think about what he did before, I heard that the deputy head of Haidian District has been rectified by him, and he is still a member of the Lu family." ”

"Hearsay. Zheng Sleeve doesn't particularly care about these secret histories of officialdom.

Zhang Xiangmiao knew his character, and only asked, "What do you guess I'm most afraid of?"

"Afraid of what?"

"I'm afraid that Yang Rui took our previous papers and compared them with his. Zhang Xiangmiao's tone said coldly: "If he writes another comment, we will have to eat and hang."

Kong Xinde and Zheng Sleeve both gasped.

Periodicals are academic, but they are not entirely based on academics, and there are probably no journals in the world that can do this.

In China in the 80s, periodicals based on academics could not survive, and it was the most common case for someone to ask for help, and there were not a few behaviors such as bribery or open buying of pages.

A better journal publisher ensures that most of the papers in its own journal are above the standard line, and that's it, it also faces a lack of ability or a situation where peer-reviewed scholars are bought.

Therefore, the previous papers of any journal can be described as good and bad, and it is just a problem of good and bad up and down.

Such a thing can be said to be an open secret in the field of periodicals, and it is not even a secret.

However, it is also the emperor's new clothes, and if the transparent coat of any family is revealed, it will be a thunderstorm in an instant.

Kong Xinde shook his head slightly, and said, "He doesn't dare, how many people will he offend?"

"How many people can he offend, that is, to offend a few of our periodicals, what is he afraid of. Zhang Xiangmiao said slowly: "Yang Rui's papers are all published abroad, he doesn't have to care what our domestic journal companies think, besides, if he wants to publish papers in Chinese journals, do you dare to refuse?"

Kong Xinde was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Don't say you refuse, I have to find someone to get the manuscript." ”

"So, what if he, I mean, if he wants us to record the manuscript of his lab according to the minimum requirements, what should we do?" Zhang Xiangmiao said: "The big guys are all watching." ”

Kong Xinde was speechless for a moment.

Zheng Sleeve moved his mouth and thought: "He is doing this, not only offending us, if he indicates which of your papers is of poor quality, it will not offend the author to death." ”

"It's not easy to pick up a few soft persimmons. ”

Zheng Sleeve was speechless, some scholars spent their own money in order to evaluate the title or something, and people asked someone to find it, among which there were inevitably many soft persimmons.

Kong Xinde writhed uncomfortably, and said for a while: "Speaking of which, are we still afraid of him?"

"Aren't you afraid?" asked Zhang Xiangmiao.

Kong Xinde was speechless again, and said after a long time: "He won't think of what you said." ”

"He probably didn't think that what about his researchers?"

"So, he's still a biotyman? Whose paper does he want, we have to let it be on it?"

Zhang Xiangmiao poured a pot of tea, took two sips, put it down, and said, "Aren't they?"

The three of them had no interest in talking, and in the small room, only the sound of snorting tea remained.
