meeting room.
"What's the reaction from the Journal of Tsinghua University?" Hu Shi, who was sitting in the editor-in-chief's seat on the editorial board, held a lit cigarette between two fingers of his right hand, took a puff, exhaled white smoke, and looked at the publishing editor.
At this time, the meeting within the editorial board has come to an end.
The publication editor, who was about 30 years old, responded: “When I got back to the editor-in-chief, there was no response from the Journal of Tsinghua University and it is still publishing.”
"Okay... you go down first." After hearing this, Hu Shi nodded, rubbed his forehead with a slight headache, and signaled the publishing editor to go out first.
"Yes." The publishing editor turned around and left without stopping.
Soon, the conference room fell into silence.
"Let's talk about your opinions on this matter." Hu Shi tapped the cigarette twice with his middle finger, and the ashes fell into the ashtray. He looked at the deputy editor and other editorial members.
There is only one reason why all members of the editorial board of Peking University Journal are gathered here, and that is that the newly released second issue of Peking University Journal in April has conflicted with the Tsinghua Journal.
This is embarrassing and a headache.
Hu Shi, who is the dean of the School of Liberal Arts, dean of the Literature Department and provost of Peking University, is the editor-in-chief of the monthly Peking University newspaper. There is no one in Peking University who is more suitable for this position than him.
However, even Hu Shi felt quite troubled by Mr. Zhang San's behavior of multiple submissions for one manuscript.
Not easy to deal with.
This matter is really difficult to handle.
Failure to deal with it is a violation of the journal's regulations.
Process, sorry for this book.
If there were other articles, Hu Shi would not hesitate to follow the rules and directly stop the publication of the journal and delete the article with a wave of his hand.
However, this book "Mechanical Drawing" by Mr. Zhang San is so heavy that even Hu Shi had to weigh it.
This book, approved by the entire editorial board of Peking University Newspaper and President Jiang Menglin, will be of immeasurable help to the Chinese industry.
Although it is not any advanced technology, even Hu Shi, who focuses on the field of literature, is aware of the importance of standards.
In a sense, it is an honor for the entire Peking University Newspaper that Mr. Zhang San can contribute to the Peking University Newspaper, just like the relationship between Einstein and Nobel.
The Peking University Journal is said to be a monthly publication. In fact, due to the scarcity of high-quality articles, external environmental factors, etc., the publication date of the journal is unstable.
Most of the time, an issue comes out either every three months or every six months, and the time is not fixed.
Of course, if there are many manuscripts, it can occasionally be published monthly, or even twice a month.
Qian Xuantong, the deputy editor sitting aside, pushed up his glasses, looked around, and said: "There is no response from the Journal of Tsinghua University. I think they mean... they don't care."
not give a damn about?
As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted the attention of all the editorial board members in the office.
"Oh? Deqian, what do you mean..." Hu Shi heard this, thoughtfully.
"They don't care, and we don't care. The matter is at this point. I think Mr. Zhang San wants to spread and promote his mechanical drawing as much as possible, so he submits multiple drafts. If I'm not wrong, Brother Yousan also That's what I think." Qian Xuantong said slowly.
Regardless of the competition between Peking University and Tsinghua University, in fact, the professors of the two universities have a very good relationship in private. Qian Xuantong just came out of the Tsinghua campus yesterday and chatted with friends such as Wen Yiduo and Chen Yinke about his views on the country and the nation. matter.
Hu Shi nodded and looked at the other editorial members: "Do you have any other opinions?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"Then let's follow De Qian's advice and just hit the manuscript. For my China, sacrificing a little reputation of the journal is nothing. I hope that Mr. Zhang San's painstaking work can be promoted throughout the country and become the standard for our country's industrial machinery. ." Hu Shi put down the unburned cigarette, stood up, and said seriously.
Everyone stood up and nodded solemnly.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Zhang San would submit multiple manuscripts for one manuscript, which made me think that this issue of the journal would be ranked first in the country. Haha, I will talk to Brother Yousan in the next two days to see if Tsinghua University receives the manuscript first, or we do. Peking University will receive the manuscript first." After the serious talk, Hu Shi laughed and joked.
Qian Xuantong smiled and nodded: "Yes, I was chatting with Brother Yousan yesterday, but I didn't expect them to hide it so deeply."
…
The two top academic journals in the field of academic journals have tacitly ignored the matter of "colliding manuscripts", and the latest issue of the journal is still in the process of being published.
Shanghai Stock Exchange, "Science" magazine.
The "Science" magazine during the Republic of China was a comprehensive academic journal covering multiple disciplines and fields. It was affiliated with the China Science Society and was founded by early Chinese students such as Ren Hongjun, Zhao Yuanren, Bingzhi, and Yang Quan who returned to China. Its core operating model completely refers to Across the ocean, Science is the magazine of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Yes, you read that right, "Science" and the later famous "Science", these are Li Kui and Li Gui in the field of academic journals.
In China, the influence and status of "Science" magazine is undoubtedly at the top of the academic journal pyramid, no less than that of Journal of Qingbei University. The vast majority of scientific papers and research results will be submitted to Science. Once the manuscript is published, That means fame and honor.
The China Science Society was the largest and most technologically advanced comprehensive scientific research group during the Republic of China. China's first wireless intercom was developed by the China Science Society.
Of course, there is still a considerable gap between the Chinese Science Society and Science, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science and Science.
The world only recognizes "Science" founded by Edison, not "Science" founded by Ren Hongjun and others.
At this time, in the editorial department of Science magazine, editor-in-chief Zhao Yuanren was having a headache.
"Are you sure?" Zhao Yuanren flicked the cigarette butt and asked with bloodshot eyes.
"It has been confirmed by the Beiping Branch and Tianjin Branch that the core content of the latest journals published by Peking University Journal and Tsinghua Journal is exactly the same as the fourth issue of our magazine to be published. The Peking University Journal is named "Mechanical Drawing of the Republic of China" and the Tsinghua Journal is named "China "Mechanical Drawing"." The assistant standing next to him opened the file and reported seriously.
After hearing the report, Zhao Yuanren frowned slightly and his mind fell into thinking.
The assistant was silent and waited quietly.
Not long ago, Science Magazine received a manuscript of the drawing from Ping'anli Post Office. As the editor-in-chief, Zhao Yuanren was keenly aware of the importance of this manuscript, and adopted early confidentiality methods to prepare for publication in the fourth issue of "Science".
However, Science's release date is generally around April 15th.
Zhao Yuanren, who was originally looking forward to the fourth issue of this year's magazine, now only feels... embarrassment and a headache.
It was embarrassing to have manuscripts from two academic journals collided with each other, but in the end, I collided with three of them.
Could the situation be any more embarrassing?
The important thing is that the fourth issue of "Science" magazine lags behind the first two. When it is released next week, readers will think that "Science" has plagiarized the core content of the Qingbei Journal.
Academic plagiarism, the seriousness of this behavior far exceeds any situation. It is a taboo in the academic field, second only to seizing other people's achievements.
"The fourth issue was published on time. However, I wrote a letter to inform readers that it will be printed before the fourth issue." After thinking for a long time, Zhao Yuanren put down his cigarette and said to his assistant.
The arrow was on the string and had to be fired. Zhao Yuanren couldn't withdraw the manuscript, so... he simply ignored it.
Of course, in order to avoid suspicion of academic plagiarism, he had to inform the basic situation.
"Yes." The young assistant turned and left.
