Chapter 160 Confirmed to be false
"These.........ahem, they are all data obtained from experiments I have accumulated over many years. I am not sure of its value, but I can be sure of its authenticity. Guaranteed, as long as the preparation is carried out according to the standard amount, the success rate will be at least 90%. After all, there are other variables and conditions involved." Du Jin forced down the guilt in his heart and assured Si Qing, while feeling deep in his heart Silently apologizing to these scientific research giants in another world: "Please don't take offense. I am doing this... for the sake of all mankind. Please forgive me. Please forgive me." Looking at Du Jin With a confident look and tone, Si Qing did not question anything, but nodded solemnly, held a pile of information in his arms, then sat next to Du Jin and promised: "Xiao Jin, don't worry! I will Publish this paper in your name as soon as possible. I will not disclose the content to anyone. I swear on my life............. ....."
"Wait..." Du Jin stretched out his finger and tapped Si Qing's lips, then pretended to be serious.
"Criticism" said: "Why are you talking about swearing again? I don't believe you, Xiaoqing, so who can I trust? And we have agreed before that we will publish it in your name, Xiaojin. I only need to Just reveal the identity of the person participating in the research.”
"But Xiao Jin, do you know the value of this research if it is proven? These data have been accumulated by you through so many years of research. How can I occupy the magpie's nest? No! I can't agree." Si Qing himself As a researcher in scientific research, she naturally knows the difference in the order of the first author of a paper. The criteria for authorship are: participating in the conception, design or obtaining of data of the research, as well as the analysis and interpretation of the data; writing the paper or Participate in the revision of important content; agree to the public publication of the final revised draft. The author of the paper must be directly involved in all or part of the main work of the paper's topic selection, design, research, data analysis and interpretation, or write the key content of the paper, and be responsible for the content of the paper. And those who can conduct the defense.
Those who have only participated in partial work or a certain experiment, or provided partial guidance and assistance for the paper, cannot be listed as authors, but can be acknowledged at the end of the article.
The names of the authors, regardless of unit or position, are all listed under the title according to their contribution to the article. The first author is the main person responsible for the article.
This paper also brings prestige and economic benefits, and the first author is the absolute majority, that is, the most direct profiteer.
We all know that when reviewing for senior professional titles, the paper will be required to be an independent author or the first author. Therefore, many people are trying to get the title of first author. It is difficult to achieve it in domestic journals. It is not difficult to submit to ScI English journals and be the first author. .
Unless the ScI English journal to which the manuscript is submitted requires that there can only be one first author, generally there can be multiple first authors.
Of course, in terms of professional titles in China, the co-first author will definitely not have as high a rating as the first author. The existence is reasonable, and there are three reasonable situations for co-first authorship.
One is that the contribution is of the same size, and it is impossible to distinguish who has contributed more, both are indispensable; the other is that one person's research has made progress, but did not continue, and the other person has inherited and completed the research, and the work of the two people has the same impact on the paper. It plays an important role; the last one is that the research project is very large and it is impossible for one person to complete it. There will be several people working together to complete it in several parts. Then the possibility that these people will be the first author is very high.
But the first author must have a ranking order, who is first and who is last? This is a process of balancing interests, and no one can tell what rules should be followed.
But Si Qing knew very well that, let alone her contribution to Du Jin's research, before she got these materials, she didn't even know that Du Jin had quietly completed this project in secret, which was of great significance and difficulty. Tianji's research, not to mention Du Jin is one of her most important people now, even her subordinates or friends, even enemies, she would not be able to do such a thing that goes against her heart, so she has made up her mind, No matter how much Du Jin persuaded her, she could not waver at all.
"Xiao Qing, this...sigh! Okay." Du Jin, who has been getting along with Si Qing for several years, naturally knows Si Qing's persistence and persistence on issues of principle. He was determined, so Du Jin also dismissed Xiao Zhi's persuasion to be rational and emotional. He first made an expression of helpless giving up to let Si Qing relax his vigilance, and then apologized to Si Qing in his heart: "Xiao Qing, I'm sorry! I promise , I will try my best not to use this ability on you again in the future, please forgive my selfishness!" Then, Du Jin took advantage of Si Qing to relax and prepare to speak, and concentrated on staring at Si Qing's bright With eyes as beautiful as stars, he said in as calm a tone as possible: "Xiao Qing, promise me that you will be the first author of this paper, and my name will be second. It must be like this, okay? ?" Si Qing's brows immediately frowned, but under the indescribable pressure in Du Jin's eyes, her brows gradually relaxed, and she couldn't help but prepare a lot of reasons for Du Jin to convince herself, but she didn't know if it was true or not. Because Du Jin himself is unwilling
The thought of "controlling" Si Qing's consciousness led to Si Qing being concerned about Du Jin's decision
When "making excuses", he still brought some sense of autonomy into it: "Yes, Xiaojin must have his own difficulties. He has insufficient qualifications, connections, and age. He may be forced by others to publish in his own capacity." Take it, no! Then let me help Xiaojin block the troubles on the surface. Then I will add "The actual operator and recorder of the research data is Du Jin's responsibility" in the paper to let readers understand this technology Who does he really belong to? Yes, it should be like this!" After thinking about the reasons to convince herself, Si Qing's resistance and rejection naturally disappeared from within. She looked into Du Jin's eyes and nodded in response. "I understand, Xiao Jin, I understand your difficulty, don't worry! I will do it according to your request." After hearing this assurance, Du Jin smiled and nodded, although he was a little curious about what Si Qing said. Said
What is "your problem"? But knowing that he was in the wrong, he did not discuss this issue in depth. After exchanging trivial matters in life with Si Qing for a while, he left on his own initiative. Originally, Du Jin wanted to talk to Si Qing. To enhance the relationship between the two through a moment of affection. After all, in Du Jin's eyes, boys are expected to take the initiative to do these proactive things. It is obviously unfair for girls to take the initiative to reconcile the atmosphere. After all, girlfriends are meant to be pampered. , not for use, but because Du Jin forced
"Distorted" Si Qing's cognition, and the guilt in his heart made him dare not take the initiative to say too much to Si Qing, so he could only leave in a hurry.
Si Qing was not affected in any way. She took the initiative to escort Du Jin back to the school gate as before. Along the way, she also explained to Du Jin the issues that should be paid attention to within the system. Of course, Si Qing had another meaning. It is very clear that Du Jin should not keep his grievances and conflicts in his heart. If necessary, he can tell her that Si Qing has the ability to help Du Jin resolve most external pressures. Feeling Si Qing's care, somewhere in Du Jin's heart The tenderness was also deeply touched. Before getting out of the car, Du Jin took the initiative to reach out and hold Si Qing's little hand, and said with attachment and solemnity: "Thank you, Xiao Qing, I will never let you down! I promise!" Si Qing smiled and responded in an extremely gentle and considerate manner: "Yes! I believe you!" Looking at Si Qing's crimson cheeks, Du Jin had the urge to kiss her, but he still restrained himself. The inner desire is not because he is not affectionate enough for Si Qing, but because he cherishes Si Qing too much. Not to mention that there are so many people at the school gate, even in a very secluded place, Du Jin did not ensure that he had the ability to protect Si Qing. On the basis of this, I will not do anything frivolous. This is my responsibility to Secretary Qing and it is also an encouragement to myself.
The two of them flirted with each other for a long time before Du Jin reluctantly let go of Si Qing's soft and delicate hand and returned to the school. As for the institute, he had no plans to go there anymore. After all, he was really noticed above. , or in other words, before you value yourself, you will only be targeted by that gentle man if you go there. Not only does it have no value to your own development, but it also creates obstacles for yourself for no reason.
At this moment, Du Jin suddenly noticed a faint trace of hostility. To be precise, it was some kind of malicious gaze. Being stared at meant being exposed, and the exposure of shortcomings meant that one was not perfect in the eyes of others, and imperfection meant to many people. For people, it means risk.
So, we all don’t like to be looked at. Once we are watched, we will feel uncomfortable. This discomfort is the anxiety that arises when we don’t want to expose ourselves but feel that we are about to be exposed.
It is a common social psychological phenomenon among us to hide oneself appropriately and avoid excessive self-exposure.
The reason why it is common is that it has certain positive meanings for us, that is, self-protection.
It is impossible for anyone to completely expose all of their psychology, because everyone will have some immature, evil, and ideas that are not accepted by society and even themselves. Exposing all of them goes against the survival needs of social animals. .
We can neither expose everything nor hide everything. Firstly, it is impossible. Secondly, it is unnecessary. Thirdly, whether we expose everything or hide everything, it will threaten our survival.
Therefore, Du Jin instinctively turned back to look at a building more than a kilometer away from him. For a moment, he seemed to catch a glimpse of a light flashing past, and the sense of being watched and probe disappeared immediately, as if it had never appeared.
"Strange, is it an illusion?" What Du Jin didn't see was that under a window on the upper floor of the building just now, a man who looked no different from ordinary Xia people was holding a telescope in his hand and gasping. He was angry, and judging from the strange-looking sniper rifle next to him, this man was definitely not a good person. After a short breath, he quickly dismantled the sniper rifle very skillfully and put it into a nearby In the guitar bag, he reported through the in-ear headset in a solemn tone: "The target has extraordinary anti-reconnaissance capabilities. At present, my position may have been exposed, requesting evacuation." At the same time, Country M stationed in Xia Country Below the embassy, in a room filled with dense equipment, three men and one woman were sitting on chairs listening to the report. After listening to the detective's report, the woman was the first to speak: "The target is still alive, and can be found there. Our observation was noticed from a kilometer away. This Du Jin is definitely not an ordinary person.
The "lone wolf" may be in danger, and the best outcome can only be
The "lone wolf" was imprisoned by the Xia army. "Another blond man then continued:"
Although the "Lone Wolf" guy is a little arrogant, I admire his skills and counter-reconnaissance capabilities, and he seems to be the same
One of the adapters of the "Shenqi Project", he can be defeated by this Du Jin. Xia Guo is definitely ahead of us in terms of genetic enhancement. "The remaining two men remained silent. For a while, there was only the sound of suppressed breathing in the room. After a minute, a thin man stood up and ordered in a rather deep voice:" Let Hawkeye come back. There are big variables in the goal. We can't lose any more of Xia's elite personnel. Mike, you go ask the country for instructions to raise Du Jin to the orange list. "
"Yes!" If it were before, Mike would definitely refute. After all, for country M, the orange list and the yellow list are not the same level at all. Du Jin is on the orange list of Xia Country, which ranks third in the intelligence system of country m. Third, there is the red list, the yellow list, and the orange list.
Du Jin's importance has changed very obviously in the eyes of Country M. After all, he involves too many secrets, such as the powerful genetic enhancement technology that Xia Country himself does not know about.
................................................................. .................................................In Wanglong City On the other side, in a research institute buried deep underground, a corpse of a creature that looked very shabby was placed in a hall. The hall was surrounded by a meter-thick transparent material of unknown material, and the hall There are also eight fixed firepower points set up on the top. The shape is quite similar to the GAU-8\/A automatic cannon. The eight gun barrels are not what ordinary Gatling machines can scale. With high rates of fire and 15mm large-caliber armor-piercing bullets, it is no exaggeration to say that these eight heavy-duty firepower points are enough to become a nightmare for more than 99% of carbon-based creatures.
This corpse is
The "lone wolf" mutated into a corpse, but it no longer had any external manifestations of vitality. The black blood mark gave it the opportunity to mutate, but it also took away everything about it, including vitality and self-healing. Various abilities, but the Xia State military does not know all of this. For this alien creature, they did not directly start research, but carried out pre-placement and observation to ensure its safety. Like M Country, the researchers As
The “touchstone” approach does not exist here.
"How are the sampling results?" An officer observing through the transparent wall asked a middle-aged researcher on the side. The other person picked up the information in his hand, flipped it and explained: "Looking at the limb results, This corpse does not belong to any known creature on Blue Star, but according to the DNA comparison test data, it is more than 80% similar to humans, but the specific part has mutated. We still don’t know the technology.” Human beings in this world have completed reading most of human DNA, but it is only reading. If we compare life to computers, it is like a software that can be easily obtained. Binary encoding. But such underlying code is difficult for humans to understand. If the original high-level language code can be obtained reversely, such as c++\/python\/Java code, etc., it will not be so difficult to understand. However, it is a pity that there is a lack of effective decompilation methods in both the computer field and the biological field. Interpreting DNA is not an easy task. There is a long way to go. DNA is only the underlying code, and the issue of soul or spirit still needs to be solved.
There is also the fact that although the DNA coding sequence has been deciphered, different genes will produce nearly infinite combinations. Anyway, it is a very huge number. For example, what was originally thought to be junk genes turns out to play a crucial role in some cases. , so for the corpse in front of them, which has almost no connection with ordinary human figures, Xia State scientists can only judge its similarity to humans.
Because the structure of living organisms is so complex, from invertebrates to vertebrates, from soft bodies to reptiles, amphibians, birds, fish, and mammals, overall the complexity increases by several orders of magnitude.
Taking the most advanced person today as an example, he is the most advanced among primates. It goes without saying that genes are complex. Although there are only 25,000 human genes, they can encode more than these proteins.
DNA is an introduction to the study of human beings. DNA can be translated into RNA, which is mixed with a variety of cuts. The same DNA may produce different types of mRNA, but how is it produced and what factors regulate it?
At present, we can only have a general grasp and cannot have an accurate concept. One day in the future, after the transcription mechanism is thoroughly studied, there will still be problems with proteins, such as how proteins fold into functional proteins, and why the same amino acid sequence is folded in other ways. In this way, changing the folding method will change the function, or even turn into a protein that is harmful to the human body. These are all problems that need to be solved.
When it comes to this, we have to talk about supercomputers. It is very necessary to use supercomputers to study omics and informatics in biology. Because the data is too huge, ordinary computers cannot process the data at all. Similarly, in supercomputers, some It may take a month or two to calculate a set of data, but a more powerful computer can shorten the time to a day or two, or a few hours.
This is one aspect. It may take decades or even hundreds of years to study all these thoroughly. Then let’s talk about whether we can artificially control these life processes. Basically, according to current research, we can control the growth and development of cells in a certain part of model organisms such as lower life forms in vitro, but it is very difficult to study primates. One of the reasons for the difficulty is that it is too large. Sexual maturity is very late, it takes many years, and there are only a few litters each time. The chance is very high, so it is very difficult to study.
"Similar to humans...well, I understand. What about the previous connection with the young man named Du Jin? Is there any breakthrough?"
"No, Du Jin's body's self-healing ability is very outstanding, but other than this, we have not found any similarities between him and this creature. The hypothesis generated by Du Jin can almost be proven false." The officer pointed. He nodded, seeming to be deep in thought. After thinking for a while, he raised his head and ordered: "Except for the analysis of the origin and formation of this creature, all research on its own organization has been temporarily stopped. Anyone who wants to contact him privately will be arrested immediately. , anyone who forcibly enters the isolation hall can be killed immediately, regardless of identity."
"Yes!" The two soldiers behind the officer nodded immediately. A trace of regret flashed in the middle-aged researcher's eyes, but he did not say it. After all, there are too many risks in the remains of this creature, let alone contact. A very small part of the sampled tissue it removed was infected and transformed into
No one wants to have close contact with the risk of "the same kind", whether it is for their own family or their own rights as human beings.
