Chapter 662: What is the motive?

"Why is that?"

Du Xiangwang was surprised, he turned his head to look at Tranquility, and found that Tranquility also looked dazed, and it seemed that he didn't know about this matter. He greeted several other members of the defense committee, and then left the conference room by himself, pulled Meng Qilong aside, and asked in a low voice, "President Meng, what's the matter, why did you bring all the people from the academic committee?" ”

The relationship between professors and principals in the school is very equal, and professors like Du Xiangwang, who have been in the school for many years, talk to the principal very casually. He recognized that several professors brought by Meng Qilong were all members of the academic committee of the university, and such things as the awarding of degrees were under the control of the academic committee, but under normal circumstances, the academic committee of the university would not directly intervene in the thesis defense of various colleges, and once these people appeared, it often meant that there were some unusual things.

That's exactly what is happening now.

Meng Qilong looked back and saw that Zhang Shengying and several other professors were still a few steps away from them, so he lowered his voice and said to Du Xiangwang: "Old Du, I don't want to come either, it was Zhang Shengying who reported to me that Tranquility's thesis was ...... fake."

"What!" Du Xiangwang's eyes widened, "How is this possible!" It's obvious to all that she's doing it, and besides, why does she need to be fake? ”

It is not uncommon for students to falsify their papers. Some students are in a hurry to graduate, but they can't do what they expected, and then it is easy to have the urge to cheat. Falsification includes the falsification of the original number jù and the falsification of calculation results, the former is the direct falsification of the real number jù, and the latter is the fabrication of an analysis result in one's favor when the number jù cannot be falsified, and in fact, according to the original number jù, this result cannot be obtained in any way.

The dissertation defense is a short process, and the most rigorous defense is only two or three hours. Some degree-awarding institutions don't want to take it so seriously and can even shorten the defense time to less than half an hour. In such a short period of time, it is naturally impossible for the defense committee to redo the real yàn in the student's thesis, nor can it be possible to recalculate the number jù, which gives the number jù a condition for falsification and creation.

Of course, there are also levels of counterfeiting. Some students can't even make a fake, and the number of horses and feet is exposed, and the experienced defense committee members can see the flaws at a glance, which means that the level is really too poor. The level is a little higher, and it also has a certain academic foundation, and it has also done a lot of solid real yàn, but the final real yàn result is not ideal, in this case, even if you want to fake, you can make it like the real one. Light yì is indistinguishable.

Du Xiangwang has taught for so many years, and he knows a lot about the things in students' papers. If Meng Qilong said that other students were cheating, he might still believe it, but when it came to Tranquility's fraud, Du Xiangwang would never believe it, the reason was very simple, that is, Tranquility had no need to cheat at all.

Zhang Shengying said that the international papers published by Tranquility are also fabricated, which is actually untenable. Iron-based superconductivity is a hot topic right now. Any article published by Tranquility will attract the attention of the academic community. There will also be other scholars who follow her research ideas and re-do them in order to find some new ideas. If the number jù in Serenity's paper is fake, other scholars will certainly be able to find out, and they will certainly question it.

In later generations, a female scientist in cell biology in the eastern island country claimed to have achieved a certain result and published a paper in Nature. But it wasn't the accolades that followed. It's boundless questioning. Scholars from other research institutions around the world have followed her method and have not been able to achieve the same results, and this non-reproducibility has become an important basis for questioning her academic integrity. The incident ended with the suicide of the female scholar's mentor and the resignation of the female scholar, and the harshness of the academic world can be seen.

Many of Tranquility's papers have experienced this kind of validation by her peers, precisely because her peers have been able to repeat her real results. That's why she became famous in the circle. With such a serene fame, why is there any need to fake a doctoral dissertation?

"Principal Meng, Xiao Zhang has always had opinions about Lao Chen and Qin Hai because of the funding, you know this, how can you believe what she said?" Du Xiangwang said to Meng Qilong in a reproachful tone.

Meng Qilong sighed: "I don't know, but she said that she has ironclad evidence, and she also said that the school is quiet and quiet, do you think I can bear this reputation?" Okay, I'll bring everyone over to see what the ironclad evidence that Mr. Zhang said, the clear ones are self-purifying, and the turbid ones are self-turbid. ”

Speaking of this, Du Xiangwang couldn't help it. The academic committee of the school does have the power to supervise the thesis defense at the college level, Meng Qilong is the chairman of the academic committee of the school, he brought people here, and Du Xiangwang really couldn't give an eviction order.

After letting Meng Qilong and his entourage into the conference room, Du Xiangwang walked to Ningning's side and whispered to Ningning the reason for the incident. Tranquility had actually been prepared for this matter for a long time, but she just pretended to be ignorant in front of everyone. After listening to Du Xiangwang's introduction, she smiled slightly and said: "Okay, the more people who are listening, the greater the gold content of my defense, and some people will say long and short in the future." ”

"Tranquility, you tell me the truth, is there a problem with your count?" Du Xiangwang asked in a low voice, he was also shocked by Zhang Shengying's confident appearance, and began to have some doubts in his heart.

Ning Ning shook her head and said, "There is absolutely no problem, Mr. Du, you can rest assured." ”

"What about some auxiliary numbers?" Du Xiangwang is still not steady.

Tranquility smiled: "I made it myself, and you have also seen some of it, how can it be fake?" ”

"That's right." Du Xiangwang thought about it, and there was indeed no reason to doubt Tranquility, so he advised: "Teacher Zhang may ask you some questions in a while, you must think about it before answering, don't have any flaws." ”

"I understand, thank you Teacher Du for the reminder." Tranquility said.

The defense restarted, and everyone invariably left the opportunity to ask questions to Zhang Shengying, and Zhang Shengying also took the lead and asked directly to Ningning: "Ningning, let me ask you a question, about the magnetic properties of samarium oxide iron arsenic, are you doing it yourself?" ”

"yes." Tranquility pretended not to know and nodded in reply.

"Is the number jù used in your paper a real number jù, or is it a modified number jù?" Zhang Shengying asked again.

"Of course, it's the real number." Tranquility said, "Why should I modify the number jù? ”

Zhang Shengying sneered: "Why do you want to revise the number jù, it's something you have to explain to the defense committee. What I want to tell you is that, according to an insider's report, when you were writing your paper, you tampered with the real number jù for some purpose, and the number jù you currently use on your paper is completely distorted. ”

The atmosphere in the defense room suddenly became tense, and the professors brought by Meng Qilong had already heard about this matter in advance, and they were not particularly surprised to hear Zhang Shengying say it again. Several of the original defense committee members didn't know why the academic committee of the school suddenly arrived, but when they heard Zhang Shengying's words, they knew that the person who came was not good. Seeing Zhang Shengying's conclusive appearance, everyone couldn't help but turn their eyes to the tranquility on the podium.

Tranquility remained silent and asked Zhang Shengying: "Teacher Zhang, you said that my number jù is distorted, did you personally verify it, or did you guess it?" ”

"Of course I've verified, I have detailed numbers here." Zhang Shengying proudly raised the few documents in his hand and said to Ningning.

"When did you do the verification?" Tranquility asked again.

"I did it a month ago." Zhang Shengying replied.

Tranquility smiled, smiled sweetly, and she said to everyone: "Teacher Zhang, I don't understand what he said. Since Mr. Zhang had already done a practical job a month ago and found out that the number of my papers was untrue, then he should have come to sue me at that time, or at least he should have communicated with my supervisor, Mr. Chen Zongze, to see what the problem was, which is what the teachers of the college should do, right? What is your motivation for keeping my paper a problem but keeping it a secret and waiting until I defend it? ”

As soon as the words came out, Zhang Shengying's old face suddenly turned red. It is really a shame for a teacher to calculate his own students. Now that the old bottom has been exposed by students in front of so many people, Zhang Shengying feels really a little embarrassed.

"Tranquility, don't you look away, your number is fake, do you admit it or not?" Zhang Shengying asked stubbornly.

"Of course not!" Tranquility said without hesitation, "All my numbers can stand up to scrutiny, if you don't believe it, just point out which number jù, I can immediately verify it with real yàn for everyone to see, but it may take some time for you to delay." ”

"You said it yourself." Zhang Shengying said, "We are not in a hurry about the other numbers jù, just talk about the number jù of magnetic performance, can you immediately show us the process and results of the real yàn?" ”

"Yes." Tranquility replied, "If everyone agrees, I can take everyone to the real yàn room right now to observe the real yàn results." ”

Zhang Shengying showed a sad smile on her face and said, "It's not okay to go to your real room, what if you do something on the device?" I built yì to other teachers' real yàn room to do this group of real yàn, quiet, do you dare? ”

"What's not to dare to do here?" Tranquility replied, "Tell me, go to the teacher's room, as long as the teacher agrees, we can do it immediately." ”

"Then choose Mr. Du's real yàn room, he also has a magnetometer there, and he can do this real yàn." Zhang Shengying pointed at Du Xiangwang with his finger and said. (To be continued......)
