"Professor Wang, you ...... I really can't afford it. There are thousands of rural teachers like me in China, but I just did what I had to do. ”

Pang Xuelin hurriedly stepped forward and helped Wang Chongqing up.

Wang Chongqing said: "Mr. Pang, having said that, it is precisely because of the efforts of thousands of rural teachers like you that our country, our nation, and our next generation have a future. ”

"Professor Wang, don't praise me, I'm a little embarrassed. By the way, do you have any advice on paper submission? ”

Wang Chongqing pondered for a moment, raised his head and said, "Mr. Pang, do you trust me?" ”

Pang Xuelin was slightly stunned and nodded.

Although Professor Wang's personality seems to be a little old-fashioned, so far, he has left a good impression on Pang Xuelin.

Wang Chongqing said: "Later, I will take you to meet Director Luo of our Department of Mathematics, and we will wait until we meet Director Luo about the paper." ”

"Why?" Pang Xuelin was slightly stunned.

"Mr. Pang, although the level of these papers you wrote is high, if you just mail them out, I believe that after the journal editor sees your work unit and contact address, there is a high probability that your paper will be directly thrown into the trash."

Pang Xuelin frowned and said suspiciously: "Professor Wang, you mean that they won't approve my paper?" ”

Wang Chongqing said helplessly: "Mr. Pang, you may not know that since the deeds of Academician Chen Jingrun were widely reported by the media, over the years, all well-known mathematics journals in China have received countless submissions from all over the country every day...... Most of them are voted by 'self-taught' people, even the journal sponsored by Lincheng University is no exception. In the beginning, the editors will also look through it to see if there is an opportunity to sift through some valuable manuscripts. But after a long time, everyone basically stopped reading it, and directly judged whether the paper was valuable based on the work unit and address on the manuscript. So if you just submit it directly, there is a high chance of rejection! ”

Pang Xuelin couldn't laugh or cry, and he immediately understood what Wang Chongqing meant.

This is the time when citizen scientists are flooded.

Academician Chen Jingrun is the spiritual leader of countless citizen scientists.

They delusionally wanted to be like Academician Chen Jingrun, when they were a middle school teacher, they wrote to Hua Luogeng, and proposed amendments to some of Hua Luogeng's views, so as to win Hua Luogeng's favor and grow step by step into the world's top mathematicians.

However, most of these people have never received basic professional training, but they are delusional about solving a major scientific problem in one fell swoop, or trying to overturn a famous scientific theory.

Even in later generations, there are countless folk scientists on the Internet who want to prove that π is not an irrational number.

Therefore, it is conceivable that the editors of major academic journals are helpless in the face of these civil science submissions.

Pang Xuelin said: "Professor Wang, what should I do?" ”

Wang Chongqing said: "Don't worry, wait until you see Director Luo, and I'll help you solve it." ”

Pang Xuelin nodded, since Wang Chongqing said so, he could only choose to believe Wang Chongqing at present.

After eating, Wang Chongqing took Pang Xuelin directly to the teaching building of the Department of Mathematics and came to an office on the third floor.

Inside the office, a bespectacled, Chinese-faced, and man in his early forties is dusting off the walls with a feather duster.

Seeing Wang Chongqing bring Pang Xuelin in, the man turned around and looked at Pang Xuelin behind Wang Chongqing with some scrutiny.

"Director Luo, let me introduce you, this is ......"

The middle-aged man waved his hand and said with a smile: "Professor Wang, you don't need to introduce it, this should be the teacher Xiao Pang who taught the students in the functional analysis class in the morning!" ”

Wang Chongqing was a little surprised: "Director Luo, you know everything?" ”

Luo Jianzhong said with a smile: "The morning incident has already spread, saying that a primary school teacher explained the functional analysis course to undergraduates, which is better than what you, the professor, said." ”

Wang Chongqing's old face flushed, and then he smiled: "This is also my discernment, just order someone to come up and give a lecture, there is such a high level." Mr. Pang, let me introduce you to Professor Luo Jianzhong, the head of the Department of Mathematics at Lincheng University. ”

Pang Xuelin said with a smile: "Director Luo is good! ”

"Comrade Xiao Pang, hello!"

Luo Jianzhong nodded to Pang Xuelin in a friendly manner.

He is a little strange, he understands Wang Chongqing's temperament, he is more proud, and he is more old-fashioned, but when facing Pang Xuelin, he shows a posture of intersecting with peers.

Could this young man really be as powerful as the legend suggests?

Wang Chongqing seemed to see Luo Jianzhong's thoughts, and said: "Director Luo, don't underestimate Mr. Pang, although he only teaches in a mountain village primary school, his teaching level and academic level are very high. Mr. Pang, take out those papers you wrote and show them to Director Luo! ”

Pang Xuelin nodded, took out all the papers directly from his backpack, and put them on Luo Jianzhong's desk.

Luo Jianzhong took the paper and said: "Comrade Xiao Pang, you and Professor Wang sit on the side and wait, I will read the paper first and then speak, by the way, Lao Wang, make a cup of tea for Comrade Xiao Pang yourself!" ”

"Okay, look at yours!"

Luo Jianzhong first read the titles of Pang Xuelin's thirteen papers one by one, and then took out a paper from it at random and flipped through it.

Time passed minute by minute, and before you knew it, half an hour had passed, and an hour had passed...... Luo Jianzhong was always immersed in the thesis.

Pang Xuelin was calmly drinking tea on the side, but Wang Chongqing was a little restless.

"Director Luo, how are Mr. Pang's papers?"

Finally, Wang Chongqing couldn't help but speak up.

Only then did Luo Jianzhong put down his papers, raised his head and said, "Comrade Xiaopang, these papers are all written by yourself?" ”

Pang Xuelin said: "Yes! ”

Luo Jianzhong asked again: "Comrade Xiaopang, how old are you this year?" ”

Pang Xuelin said: "After the New Year, I will be twenty years old!" ”

Luo Jianzhong's eyes flashed with a hint of incredulity, these papers belong to different fields, and the level is extremely high, it can be said that any one of them is published, and the author can occupy a place in the mathematical community.

However, these papers were all written by the same person, and it was a young man who was less than twenty years old and had never received full academic training.

He couldn't find the right words to describe it except genius.

Luo Jianzhong sighed: "It's really unimaginable that there is such a genius among the young people in our country. ”

Wang Chongqing said: "Director Luo, what do you think of letting Mr. Pang come to our school as a researcher of the Institute of Mathematics?" ”

Pang Xuelin couldn't help but raise his head in surprise, he immediately understood Wang Chongqing's thoughts.

Submitting papers as a teacher at Lingziding Village Primary School and as a researcher at the Institute of Mathematics at Lincheng University are completely different concepts for those academic journals.
