Chapter 661: The Biggest Scandal of All Time

"How can Zhang Shengying do this!"

Tranquility's face turned red with anger, in the past, she rarely called Zhang Shengying's name even in private, but this would be really ruthless.

"It's so normal." Qin Hai shrugged his shoulders and said disapprerovingly.

"It's totally harmful! This...... It's a crime! Tranquility stomped her feet, not knowing what words to use to describe it. She thought that Zhang Shengying might frame her, and she might also catch her mistakes and make a big fuss, but she never thought that as a teacher, she would instruct her graduate students to manipulate the instrument to frame a student. This kind of thing completely falls below the bottom line of morality, and it is indeed not an exaggeration to say that it is a crime.

Qin Hai waved his hand and said: "What is the nature of Zhang Shengying's matter, let's go back and talk about it, now you already know what the other party has done, and you have indeed fallen into the trap they dug, think about it, what should you do now?" ”

"I have to redo all the magnetic properties and get the results again." Tranquility said.

"Will this affect your defense?" Qin Hai asked, things that were too professional, he didn't know as well as Ning Jing himself, so he could only ask Ning Jing about it.

Tranquility thought about it seriously and said, "No, in fact, this score is not the core of my thesis, but just some auxiliary content. Changing this score will not affect the conclusion of the paper. In fact, it is precisely because these numbers are not so important that I don't pay special attention to them, otherwise, I would have been able to find the problem of numbers jù storage zài through theoretical analysis. ”

"Is there time to come?" Qin Hai asked again.

Tranquility nodded and said, "It's completely in time, I can finish the real yàn by adding a few night shifts, and I will definitely not delay the defense." …… On the other hand, on the side of "Superconductivity" magazine, I have to write an email to explain, in case they have already received Liu Jun's report letter first, I will not be able to speak. ”

"I'll do this." Qin Hai said. Several editorial board members of the "Superconductivity" magazine have dealt with Qin Hai, because today's superconducting materials are not without rare earths, and Qin Hai has the supply of heavy rare earths in his hands, so those big-name superconductivity experts have to sell Qin Hai's account.

Tranquility also knew Qin Hai's energy, and when he said this, he was relieved. She looked at the magnetometer in front of her. said hatefully: "Qin Hai, what should we do about Zhang Shengying and Liu Jun?" Do you want to find Mr. Chen to expose them? ”

"It's not time yet." Qin Hai smiled slightly and said meaningfully.

Tranquility was accustomed to obeying Qin Haiyan, at least in some major matters. Qin Hai gave her a secret lecture, she nodded and promised to do as Qin Hai instructed.

In the days that followed, Ning Jing didn't tell anyone about the problem with the magnetometer in the real room, and Qin Hai got a new magnetometer for her. She worked overtime to do the real thing she had done before, and revised the number jù in the paper. Although Chen Zongze is Tranquility's tutor, he doesn't know what revisions Tranquility has made to the thesis. As Ning Jing said, this score is not actually the core, nor does it affect the main conclusion of her thesis, so Chen Zong is not very concerned.

When the scheduled defense time came, Tranquility walked into the defense classroom with a confident attitude. He began to present his thesis to a defense committee composed of five superconductivity experts from inside and outside the university. It was also at this time that Zhang Shengying was holding a stack of materials. walked into the office of Vice Principal Meng Qilong.

"Principal Meng, I have something to report to you." Zhang Shengying said hurriedly as soon as he entered the door.

Meng Qilong, who was reading the text at the desk, raised his head, took off his reading glasses, frowned and said, "Is it Teacher Zhang?" What's the matter with you? If you're not in a hurry, can you come back to me tomorrow, I have a report to read now. I'm going to send it to the Education Commission soon. ”

In fact, Meng Qilong was not in such a hurry about the matter at hand, if another professor came to him, he would definitely put down the text and listen to the other party's narrative enthusiastically. But this Zhang Shengying is really not popular. Since she had a conflict with Qin Hai, she had to go to the school leaders to complain or cry twice in three days, which made everyone annoy her.

Zhang Shengying naturally knew what kind of image she was in the minds of the school leaders, but this time she came with conclusive evidence, and the reasons she claimed were also very lofty, so she didn't worry that the school leaders didn't pay attention to it. She even felt that after this incident, the school leaders would suddenly find that the superconductivity research center under the management of Chen Zongze was full of problems, and she Zhang Shengying was the mainstay of the center, and it was precisely because she was a "conscientious" scholar who spoke up righteously, so she was repeatedly persecuted by Chen Zongze and his behind-the-scenes boss Qin Hai, and her grievances were like mountains.

"President Meng, I am here to report today, the matter reported is very urgent, if the university leaders can't deal with it immediately, then there is likely to be the strictest scandal in the history of Jingcheng University." Zhang Shengying's mouth is a sensational statement.

"Teacher Zhang, you're saying this too harshly, aren't you?" Meng Qilong didn't believe Zhang Shengying's words, he played with his reading glasses in his hand and said lightly.

Zhang Shengying glared at her and said, "Principal Meng, don't you believe it?" You sue you that there is a student in our school who has published many articles in international journals and has a very big impact, and the papers she wrote are all fake, which is a blatant academic fraud. Thankfully, I've already discovered it, and it's too late to stop its spread. If this kind of behavior is discovered by foreign scholars and made public, the academic prestige of our Beijing University will be completely ruined. ”

"You mean...... Serenity? Meng Qilong asked in surprise, there are not many students who can publish many articles in international journals, and combined with Zhang Shengying's major, Meng Qilong can naturally guess who Zhang Shengying is talking about. Although he was still a little skeptical about Zhang Shengying's words, the results Zhang Shengying said were indeed something he didn't dare to ignore.

"That's right, it's Chen Zongze's proud disciple, who claims to be the discoverer of iron-based superconductivity." Zhang Shengying said sourly.

Meng Qilong automatically filtered out Zhang Shengying's whining words, and he asked, "Teacher Zhang, you said that Tranquility's number jù was fake, is there any evidence?" ”

"Of course there is evidence." Zhang Shengying said, "If there is no evidence, how dare I come to you to report it with my real name?" ”

"If the content of the real-name report is not true, you will have to bear the corresponding responsibility, Mr. Zhang, you should know, right?" Meng Qilong reminded.

Zhang Shengying shook her head and said: "Of course I know, and I also know that the school is particularly biased towards academic elites like Ningning, if there is no real evidence, how dare I report it." ”

"The school doesn't and doesn't favor anyone." Meng Qilong corrected Zhang Shengying's statement, he didn't want to carry this black cauldron, "Teacher Zhang, if you have evidence, you can hand it over to me now, and I will ask the school's academic committee to test it." If your report is true, the school will deal with it strictly in accordance with discipline, regardless of who is involved. ”

"Here's my evidence." Zhang Shengying waved the information in his hand, "But I don't need to look at this evidence now, and I don't have time to read it." I hope that President Meng will bring the professors of the Academic Council to the large conference room of the Superconductivity Research Center, where Tranquility is defending her doctoral dissertation with her forged number. In case the defense committee does not find out that the number is fraudulent and guò guò her defense, it will be a discredit to Jingjing University. I'll be there to pierce her count, who is right and who is wrong, everyone can see at a glance. ”

"Are you sure you have hard evidence?" Meng Qilong looked at Zhang Shengying and asked solemnly for the last time.

"Yes." Zhang Shengying nodded firmly.

"Okay then." Meng Qilong returned to his desk, picked up the phone, and informed several professors from the university's academic committee, asking them to immediately gather at the entrance of the superconductivity research center, so that they could go to the quiet doctoral dissertation defense site to witness Zhang Shengying's accusations.

Although Meng Qilong hates Zhang Shengying, he still believes a little bit about what Zhang Shengying said. In Meng Qilong's view, Zhang Shengying is also a professor at Beijing University after all, and it is inevitable to be selfish and arrogant, but at least the academic conscience should still be trustworthy, right? Since she was so adamant in asserting that there was something wrong with Serenity's thesis, maybe there really was.

Falsification is a very bad behavior, and once it is verified, it will definitely be severely punished. And if Tranquility's previous papers published in international journals also involve fraudulent numbers, then the problem is even greater, which is simply an international disgrace. Such a big thing, how dare Meng Qilong slack off.

Ten minutes later, the group gathered downstairs at the Superconductivity Research Center, and several professors from the academic committee listened to Zhang Shengying's brief introduction to the situation, and their faces changed. Under the leadership of Meng Qilong, everyone came to the scene of the quiet defense with a solemn expression.

At this time, Tranquility's dissertation defense has entered more than half of the time, and Tranquility has finished introducing her thesis and is answering questions from the defense committee. Needless to say, the three experts from the university, the two experts invited from outside the school also knew Tranquility, knowing that this young girl was the discoverer of iron-based superconductivity, and her academic future was limitless, everyone was asking and answering questions with a discussion attitude, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Meng Qilong knocked on the door of the defense conference room, and Du Xiangwang, the chairman of the defense, frowned and motioned for the defense secretary to open the door. Seeing that it was Meng Qilong standing outside the door, Du Xiangwang stood up and said with a displeased expression: "President Meng, we are defending our thesis here, what are you ......?"

"We are all here to listen to Tranquility's defense." Meng Qilong said, and at the same time pointed out several experts behind him and Zhang Shengying to Du Xiangwang. (To be continued......)
