Although Jeff didn't understand what the paper was about, Maninstein strongly recommended it, and his intuition told him that these articles must be groundbreaking.

He didn't want to share this honor with Maninstein for this kind of thing, and Maninstein already had enough honors, so he didn't care about a little less.

Brymble's two-page essay on the DNA double helix structure model became the most famous article in the history of Nature, and Brymble's name went down in history.

It's not that Bremble didn't review manuscripts back then, but that his way of reviewing manuscripts was different, and he had his own way of judging.

The paper on the model of the double helix structure of DNA was recommended by Bragg, director of the Cavendish Physics Laboratory, and Prague was a Nobel laureate, which was enough to prove the value of the paper, and Brymble's direct judgment that what the paper was talking about, although hypothetical, would open an era, so he did not hesitate to expedite the publication of this "hypothesis" essay.

Now Maninstein has flown across the English Channel from Germany just for the sake of these four articles, and Dr. Jeff does not seem to understand the concept of "subtle anatomy" in the articles, which does not prevent him from using his editor-in-chief power to expedite publication.

Nature is like that, the editor's brain is everything!

With a history of more than 150 years, this review method of Nature has been tried and tested repeatedly, and there have been frequent outbreaks of shocking articles that have opened the era.

——

After solving the problem of "Nature", Maninstein did not stop, and then set off across the Atlantic to Massachusetts, USA, he would not let go of every article of Yang Ping, and he had to publish all his papers.

At this time, Maninstein did not know the specific content of Yang Ping's five papers published in the journal "Cell", only that he had submitted five papers to "Cell".

Maninstein was full of energy, holding his kraft briefcase, and slept on the plane, and when he arrived in Massachusetts, the editor-in-chief of "Cell", Ruben Kell, personally drove to pick him up.

Reuben Kell, a geneticist, Ph.D. from Harvard University, and a member of the National Academy of Sciences, is a distinguished editor-in-chief.

Maninstein has won the Nobel Prize twice, he is a scholar that everyone in the academic world will be respected, and almost all the editors-in-chief of top journals involved in medicine do not know Maninstein, and the journal "Cell", Maninstein's two Nobel Prize results are published here.

When it comes to personal relationships, Ruben Kyle of Cell, the three editors-in-chief of CNS, has the deepest friendship with Maninstein.

The plane was late, and it was late at night when it landed, and Ruben Kyle waited at the airport for two hours.

Ruben Kyle knew on the phone that Maninstein had an urgent matter, but he didn't know what it was, presumably it was a breakthrough in head replacement surgery, which may involve some ethical issues, and it was inconvenient to talk about it on the phone, so as not to tell the truth, so he hurried to the meeting.

If this is the case, it means that Maninstein has made a breakthrough in nerve repair, then it is very likely that he will break history and win the third Nobel Prize in medicine, which will be a miracle in history.

At the exit of the airport, Ruben Kyle finally met his old friend Maninstein, who opened his arms and hugged each other warmly.

"My old friend, you should take it easy, you don't have to be in such a hurry."

"No, some things can wait until next year, but some things can't wait until tomorrow, don't go back to your headquarters, let's find a place to sit down, let me eat something and drink some coffee first." Maninstein's stomach was already rumbling.

"The old place? You know, it's very quiet and easy to talk to. ”

Seeing Maninstein's brow-browled expression, Ruben Kyle could almost conclude that he had made a breakthrough in nerve repair, which was a great joy.

Two old friends got in the car, Ruben Kyle drove into the suburbs, came to a relatively remote café, which was opened by Ruben Kyle's friend, he parked the car, and took Maninstein directly to a single room on the second floor, every time he came to the United States, Maninstein and Ruben Kyle were here to catch up.

The two of them sat down, and hot coffee was served, followed by steaks, sausages, and bread.

Ruben Kyle said excitedly: "Old friend, let me guess what happened, your expression has betrayed you, is it the progress of your experiment?" A huge breakthrough in nerve repair? In that case, the head-swapping experiment is just around the corner, and the experiment with monkeys will surely succeed soon, so let's use monkeys for the time being, but there will still be a lot of pressure on ethics. ”

After Maninstein devoured it, he shook his head: "Not so soon, I came to the United States for other things." ”

As he spoke, he took out a card from the briefcase he carried with him and handed it to Ruben Kell: "This Chinese name, there are 5 papers submitted in your journal, I want you to publish as soon as possible, at all costs, as soon as possible!" You know what I mean. ”

If someone studies the same topic at the same time and achieves the same progress, the paper published first will be recorded in history, and the later publication will naturally be buried, which is the cruel reality.

Ruben Kyle took the card, which read Yang Ping's Chinese pinyin, and the English name of Sanbo Hospital.

He thought about it, frowned, and had a little impression of these articles, which they had discussed together not long ago, and after several rounds of discussions, the articles were temporarily suppressed.

But Ruben Kyle is hesitating, feeling that the topic of the article is very new, and it can be said that the article is about to open up a whole new field, and put forward ideas that have never been mentioned before.

Unfortunately, this issue is only a hypothesis, and there is no experimental data to support it for the time being.

Ruben Kyle was still impressed by these articles, and said to Maninstein, who was cutting steaks:

"At the editorial board discussion, I saw these five papers, which are different levels and aspects of the same topic, to the effect that there is some kind of three-dimensional guided construction gene fragment in human cells, which can guide cells to carry out precise spatial construction. Because of the existence of three-dimensional space-oriented gene fragments, cells can build tissues, organs, and finally a complete human body step by step. ”

The article shows that the genetic information of the human body contains not only the design drawings of the human body, but also the guide of how to turn the drawings into 3D reality. From the fertilized egg to the human body, the dividing cell relies on this gene as an architect to build a three-dimensional human body. ”

"At the moment this is just a hypothesis, but the authors say that there will be experimental data to support it soon, how soon will it be? We need data that we can publish now, not predictions. I have to admit that this hypothesis is very imaginative, but such a huge hypothesis is difficult to convince people without experimental support. ”

Maninstein had been listening attentively, and after eating a steak, he said:

"What about the opinion of the expert review?"

Ruben Kyle shook his head: "The expert reviewers unanimously agreed that this was an unfounded imagination and recommended that it not be published, and the opinion of our editorial board was consistent with this, and the author of the article had no previous achievements in this field, and the laboratory where he worked was not famous, and after several discussions, we still felt that it would not be published, but I personally felt that I had to think about it before rejecting the manuscript." ”

Maninstein pressed the call bell button on the table, summoned the waiters, and asked them to deliver three more steaks, two of which apparently would not fill a hungry stomach.

After the waiter left, Maninstein said:

"You are still hesitating and did not directly reject the manuscript, which shows that you are a smart person and commensurate with the honor you have received so far."

He paused and continued, "If it's convenient, I propose to go back to your headquarters later, and I'll have to take a good look at these articles." ”

Ruben Kelken headed: "Of course, the door to Cell is always open for Maninstein. ”

Maninstein ate five steaks before he felt hungry, so the two drove to Cell's headquarters, Ruben Kell's office.

It was already past two o'clock in the morning, and the whole building was pitch black, except for Ruben Kell's office.

Ruben Kyle turned on his computer, pulled up his papers, handed his chair to Maninstein, and after making two cups of coffee, he sat down and waited.

Even with the blessing of coffee, Ruben Cael couldn't help but yawn, his eyes were heavy and he didn't listen, and he fell asleep from time to time.

But Maninstein, on the other hand, was full of energy and his eyes were bright, as if it wasn't early in the morning at all, or he had just washed up after a full sleep, staring at his computer and slowly reading his papers.

After reading it a few times, Maninstein sat up straight and said something to his old friend, but Ruben Kyle was already asleep.

"Ruben Kyle!" Maninstein shouted.

Ruben Kyle woke up from his sleep and panicked: "Damn, where am I?" ”

Maninstein handed over a tissue, and Ruben Cale wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, sobered up and said, "Sorry, I just fell asleep?" Didn't say anything, did you? ”

Maninstein said, "It's fine. ”

"Wait for me, I need to wash my face."

Ruben Kyle got up at any moment, grabbed a towel from the office and went to the bathroom, flushed his face, and then came out in high spirits: "Okay, now let's move on-"

Maninstein confirmed that he was not in a state of mind and said:

"I've actually read the articles for a long time, but I need to make a final confirmation to make sure whether I want those articles. In fact, I think these articles are more suitable for publishing in Nature, the DNA double helix structure is similar to this, and it is also a hypothesis, the author is very confident that it will be consistent with the experimental data, but Bremble did not ignore it because of the hypothesis, and he decided to publish it directly -—— by himself. ”

"At this time, I just want to tell you a little secret, this young Chinese professor - Yang Ping, "Science" has published 4 of his articles, and "Nature" will soon publish 4 articles, and now if your 5 "Cell" articles cannot be published in time, they are likely to be divided between "Nature" and "Science", "Nature" and "Science", have been eyeing each other. Waiting for the meat to fall out of your mouth. ”

"Now there are fewer and fewer papers published in your three major journals that can appear in the Nobel Prize, of course, the existence of journals has nothing to do with the Nobel Prize, but we have to be vigilant, is some invisible index starting to decline?"

Maninstein sipped, hot coffee, dissipating the humidity from London.

"Don't tell me that's what you're here for?" Ruben Kyle couldn't believe that this genius professor's trip to the United States was for these articles.

Maninstein nodded in affirmation: "That's right, old friend, the only purpose of this trip is this!" ”

Ruben Kyle didn't believe it at all: "That's what you're visiting me at Cell headquarters late at night?" It's so much fun. ”

Maninstein tilted his head and leaned back in his chair: "Isn't this significant enough?" ”

"Is there really nothing else?" Ruben Kyle asked suspiciously.

"Honesty is the first quality, and Maninstein never lacks it, and if there is anything else to do, it's hard to add it—like I miss you, like I want to eat steak from your friend's restaurant, like I want to experience Cell's late-night overtime." ”

"Well, old friend, I believe you, what else do you have to say to me?" Ruben Kyle shrugged helplessly.

Maninstein smiled and said, "Today's steak was really good, I like it!" Thank you for me, friend. Brother Ruben Kyle, as soon as you get to work tomorrow morning, you start to get all five of these articles published in Cell, and don't postpone it, no matter what, in the most recent issue. ”

"You said to send 5 articles at once? And let the most recent journal reformat for these 5 articles? Ruben Kyle asked.

Maninstein nodded: "That's exactly what I mean, but it's not enough, I should also pick out one and launch it as a cover." ”

Ruben Kyle thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you. ”

Maninstein put away his brown leather briefcase: "In the name of an old friend, I sincerely hope that you will seize this opportunity and do what I say, not to say that you are ahead, at least not behind." ”

At this time, the energetic German yawned a big yawn:

"I've got my business done, I think I should buy the nearest flight back to Germany, I'm too busy to stay long."

"You're leaving now?"

Ruben Kyle knew that his old friend had a strange temper, but he didn't expect to leave after just a while.

"It's four o'clock in the morning?"

Reuben Kyle reminded.

Maninstein got up, carrying his old leather briefcase.

"I'll also tell you a secret, sleeping on the plane is actually very comfortable, the quality of sleep is very good, I think I should publish a paper in your journal on this matter when I have time."

"Okay, take me to the airport, I'm going to buy the nearest plane ticket, I can sleep at the airport while I'm waiting for the plane, I advise you - it's better to hurry up, Lewis and Jeff are waiting for me to add food to them, but this is my leave for you, no one should try to stretch their necks to grab it, not for anything else, because your steak is the best for my taste." When we come to Berlin, we have two more sips of dark beer. ”

Ruben Kyle thought his old friend was joking, but he didn't expect him to really leave now.
