The ending of the Hanxin incident was much better than that of the original time and space. Not only Chen Jin received the punishment he deserved, but also the academicians and core members of the R&D team involved in the incident were held accountable accordingly.
In particular, the academicians who were deeply involved and recorded by Chen Jin had their academic and administrative identities completely stripped away.
After this incident, most netizens applauded.
"You still have to be careful to achieve this level. In the past, when there was academic corruption, the punishments they received were completely out of proportion to the benefits they obtained.
Under such a light punishment, any scholar who can calculate mathematical expectations will face the temptation of academic fraud. "
"In the end, it's up to Zhou Xin to come to Beijing urgently and reach an agreement with the superiors. I just don't know if some people will hate Zhou Xin because of this."
"Definitely. In the past, academic misconduct was mostly just a warning, but now you have to be jointly and severally held legally responsible. This time, even the academicians have started doing this, let alone other ordinary university professors.
Originally, professors could not be punished, but now academicians are guilty of the same crime as ordinary people, and their privileges have been taken away. It is strange that Zhou Xin is not hated. "
"Yes, not to mention that the Academic Ethics Committee has gained more power and can directly punish parties involved in academic misconduct across the school. Not to mention that a special reporting mailbox has been set up for academic misconduct. The public welfare organization established by Zhou Xin Regulated jointly by institutional and academic ethics committees.
The Academic Ethics Committee may have problems, but Zhou Xin will certainly not let such behavior go unchecked. "
After Yanjing talked with the boss, the Academic Ethics Committee has specific powers of punishment, and the authority to set up a reporting email is in the hands of the Academic Ethics Committee and the Academic Supervision Committee.
The latter is an organization funded and established by Zhou Xin. It only has the power of inspection and supervision, that is, to verify the results of the reports.
When Zhou Xin arrived, he first found Lao Luo and Fang Zhou. Both of them liked to make trouble. Before they got mad, Fang Zhou was a good troublemaker. It just so happened that they also liked to show their faces in front of the media.
Fang Zhou was invited to join the Academic Supervision Committee because he was famous enough and had further established his reputation for fighting academic fraud during the Hanxin incident. It was normal for him to be invited.
Lao Luo sensed an opportunity himself, and while teaching at New Oriental, he applied for a job at the newly established Academic Supervision Committee.
Because it is a newly established organization, and it is an organization with real power, it will definitely be targeted by countless people. If there is a problem, it will definitely be targeted.
So Zhou Xin was personally responsible for everyone's job selection. After he saw Lao Luo's resume, he realized that it was also a good knife. By then, it would not necessarily be a TV debate between Lao Luo and Ziru, but a debate between Lao Luo and a scholar.
Zhou Xin is quite satisfied with the result. Being able to get the report email means that he can verify all the report results. Judging from his attitude of flipping the table at every turn, it cannot be said that there is no academic fraud at all. It is definitely possible. Much better than the original time and space.
Sometimes it takes attitude to lift the table, but it also requires strength. For example, Rao Yi made various real-name reports, reporting this and that, but in the end, nothing happened at all if he reported the big guy.
If you have attitude but no strength, others will not listen carefully to what you say. Zhou Xin has fully proved his strength and attitude towards academic fraud. More than one academician was brought down.
Who dares to ignore Zhou Xin's threat?
"I still don't quite understand why Zhou Xin was given so much power. By giving him this power, he can intimidate the entire Chinese academic community."
"Power depends on who holds it, and Zhou Xin is such a big deterrent because his reputation and wealth prove that the social resources he can mobilize are unmatched by other organizations or institutions.
If it were anyone else, who would have asked Motorola to stand up for him? If Motorola hadn't helped Zhou Xin stand up, Chen Jin would still have room for quibbles and maneuvers. "
"Yes, we have given power to civil organizations in the past, but the results were not very good. The power given to Zhou Xin this time is something that has never been done before. This may not necessarily have good results.
This may not be a good thing for Zhou Xin or the academic community.
Some scholars, whether in private or in public meetings during this period, agreed that giving Zhou Xin supervisory power may not be a good thing. In a sense, Zhou Xin represents populism. Populism has huge destructive power on the scientific system. We cannot ignore the existence of this destructive power.
The more social resources Zhou Xin can mobilize, the more destructive power he can cause in his hands. "
After listening to his son's words, he thought to himself that he was still too young, had interacted too much with people in academia, and when thinking about problems, he placed too much emphasis on formal correctness and ignored reality.
“If I don’t give Zhou Xin this power, can he supervise domestic academic misconduct?
Can he publish his email address? Can he investigate it himself after publishing his email address? He found someone to investigate this matter and then held a press conference to make it public. What can I do to him? Can I forbid him from doing this?
I can control domestic public opinion and prevent domestic magazines and media from reporting on it. Can I stop Zhou Xin from holding a press conference in the Lion City?
After the Hanxin incident, Zhou Xin has established a reputation in the field of academic supervision. Regardless of whether I give him this power or not, he actually enjoys this power. Rather than being outside the scope of my supervision, it is better for me to give him a push and give it to him. His nominal power gives him legitimate rights.
Compared with Zhou Xin, who holds press conferences at every turn and puts universities, scholars and related institutions on the fire, incorporating him into the rules is actually a restriction. It is a restriction in name only.
With great power comes great responsibility, and the more cautious he will be in using that power. The power is given to me, and I can naturally take it back.
If he does well, what's wrong with him always having this power? In recent years, the chaos has not only been in the civil service, but also in the academic circle. Low-level fraud such as Hanxin can be helped by Jiaotong University, not to mention other academic misconducts that I have never heard of.
If Zhou Xin does well, then he will become the Sword of Damocles at the head of domestic academic circles. If he didn't do well and exposed his flaws and was caught by people in the academic world, then I would naturally have reason to take the power back from him.
Power is given by me, and I can take it back. It is not given by me, it is fought for by himself, and given to him by the people. It is much more difficult to take it back. Do you understand this truth?
Don't hang out with those people. If you hang out with them every day, you won't understand how the real world works. "
Zhou Xin didn't know the twists and turns inside, but he could feel the pressure and he was aware of the risks involved.
You have the power to supervise all academic misconduct, which means that you cannot make mistakes, and everyone will be watching you, hoping that you will make mistakes.
Make a mistake and it will be publicized and credibility will be eroded.
Official institutions can play dead, but he cannot. Reputation is too important to him. It is the source of strength and Achilles' heel.
Of course, Zhou Xin has more than just this source of strength.
Unlike in the original time and space where the members of the Expert Appraisal Committee were only criticized and educated, this time among the experts, Zou Shichang, because of his low level of participation, only helped to sign, and was only warned and transferred out of his original job. Arrived at a sinecure.
The other three experts were not so lucky. Wang Yangyuan, Yan Xiaolang and Xu Juyan were all held accountable for subsequent legal liability.
Among them, Wang Yangyuan, one of the founders of SMIC, was kicked out of the board of directors in order to continue to cooperate with SMIC. He left earlier than Zhang Rujing.
But he was still doing well, except that he was deprived of his academic position and his qualifications to work in companies, but he was not imprisoned.
The other two experts whose voices were recorded, along with Chen Jin, will stay there for several years.
"So, are you satisfied with this result?" It was already the end of 2002, and it was about to enter 2003, and the punishments for those involved in the Hanxin incident had been handed down.
Cao Yongluo and Zhou Xin said while making a transoceanic phone call.
Zhou Xin said: “There is nothing dissatisfied, this is the result I expected.
If there are recordings proving that Xu Juyan and Yan Xiaolang are deeply involved in Hanxin and they can escape punishment, then what is the point of me personally taking action? "
Cao Yongluo said: "Haha, the academic circle is now very frightened by the results of Hanxin. A group of liberal arts scholars accused you in magazines, saying that you started the era of mass reporting in Chinese academic circles.
Said that your behavior will set back the domestic academic environment for many years. As a result, Fangzhou wrote an article on his personal homepage, saying that he would have an open debate with them.
Several experts came to participate in the public debate hosted by Shenhai TV, but were rendered speechless by Fang Zhou. This person is indeed a talent. "
Zhou Xin said: "Originally, we created TV programs for this purpose, but unfortunately now the Internet doesn't allow it, and the TV stations won't create a special program for us. We are not allowed to run our own TV stations in China either.
So now I can only make do with it this way. "
This refers to a program run by Fang Zhou and Lao Luo. After the email address for academic reports is published, a large number of reports will be received.
Fang Zhou and Lao Luo will lead a group of people to find out representative cases, start with popular science articles, and write down clearly what is going on and where the reporting points are.
Then find relevant people to record the program. If the other party does not come, then they will record it themselves. If the person being reported comes, it will be an interview show. If the person being reported does not come, it will be a science.
The recorded videos were put on a website they specially developed, which put popular science content and videos together in the form of special reports.
They do not make judgments, they only report, and report the matter from an objective perspective. Subjective bias is unavoidable, so they can only state the facts as objectively as possible.
The program was well-received upon its launch, and Lao Luo's hosting style has a loyal audience. He has been working at New Oriental for several years and has already gained a reputation for future generations.
Although the program can only be downloaded and watched, the Internet speed is limited and the video is very large, so it takes several hours to download each time.
But this does not affect the number of downloads every time a video is put on the website, which is at least five figures. This should be considered the first generation of up owners.
It was not until China underwent large-scale network transformation in 2005 that video websites began to gradually emerge. In 2003, the first audio and video software, Baofeng Video, appeared.
However, Zhou Xin has little interest in video websites. This is a purely money-burning field, not even worth mentioning.
In the beginning, Fang Zhou served as the host of this academic reveal program. Later, Lao Luo began to take turns with Fang Zhou and found that the number of downloads when Lao Luo was the host was much higher than when Fang Zhou was the host. Lao Luo became a dedicated host.
Fangzhou is responsible for writing articles, and teams from various professions are responsible for interpretation.
Because similar academic reports are too professional, it is still difficult to translate them into language that ordinary people can understand.
Regarding suspicion, the academic secret program they launched has a large fixed audience. When every issue is released, someone will ask questions. It is the same as Ma Ni’s bedtime message. Every issue is discussed by Zhihuers.
Zhou Xin said: "Fang Zhou and Luo Yonghao are indeed talented people. They are very good at inciting the audience's emotions and are good at doing this kind of thing."
Cao Yongluo asked: "In fact, you can fully play the role of the Academic Supervision Committee and collect evidence related to the suspect and hand it over to the Academic Ethics Committee for them to handle.
Instead, you did not use this supervisory power, but used the content in the reported materials to make a program. "
Zhou Xin explained: “My handing over to the Academic Ethics Committee means that I have the responsibility to verify the authenticity of the reported content. What if there is a problem with my verification?
I don’t understand all subjects. If I have a problem, I will be taken advantage of and publicized. How many people are unhappy with me?
I only do popular science programs to let the public see the faces of some experts clearly. For particularly bad incidents, I let public opinion force them to investigate thoroughly. I have no responsibility, but it also fulfills my obligation.
This is the best solution. "
Zhou Xin is quite cautious. His past experience in working in Washington has helped him develop the habit of caution. If he is not cautious, he will be caught by Washington and will be silenced by questions at the hearing.
He needs to deal with it within the rules, but the American referees at the hearing don't have to. They can put all kinds of evidence obtained in private violations on the table to question him.
During the days when Zhou Xin was working for ZTE in Washington, he developed the habit of being cautious in everything. Not to mention the later establishment of Koryo Enterprises to obtain technology transfer from Samsung, which requires even more caution.
Cao Yongluo said on the other end of the phone: "It's no wonder that you are able to prosper in both America and China. If I were you, I would definitely not be so cautious.
Will you come back next week? "
Zhou Xin asked: "Why are you back?"
Cao Yongluo said: "Of course I am attending Xiaomi's press conference. This is Xiaomi's first product. Aren't you coming back?"
