My art is too advanced.

Chapter 96 I have never fought such a rich battle! (Please give me a monthly ticket!!!)
After receiving the paper, Teacher Guo took a quick look at it and felt that he was having trouble understanding the paper.

There is almost no need to look carefully, as you can see at a glance that a clearly incongruous sentence has been inserted in the middle of the text.

Translated meaning:
[At the strong request of the reviewers, we cited some references [3]-[15] here, although they are completely irrelevant to the research of this article. ]

Teacher Guo's eyes widened, "Is he here to clean up the academic circle?"

Teacher Guo also knows that this kind of thing is obviously that an expert reviewer has ulterior motives and wants this top journal with a blank academic journal to cite the reviewer's own paper.

Most scholars probably just deal with it to get it over with.

The academic circle is already flooded with this phenomenon and it is no longer surprising.

After all, the reviewers will review your papers for free and check your academic achievements. Then, you can cite their articles. After all, foreign countries pay more attention to the citation rate of papers, so it is enough to be perfunctory. There are more than a dozen articles, so just fill in a few of them and it will be fine.

Although it may have nothing to do with this project, since the reviewer has asked you to cite it, the reviewer will definitely try every means to get your paper approved.

Most domestic scholars, except for the top ones, just muddle through. As long as their papers are published and a few citations are included, that's not a big deal.

When Teacher Guo saw this line of words, he thought about Zhou Yue's attitude just now and had already sorted out the matter.

After this article was submitted, the journal editor asked an expert to review it. One of the review comments given by the expert was to add some of the expert's own papers to the reference list of the paper as citations.

Zhou Yue did quote it, but he put the matter directly on the table in the main text?
And directly stated that these cited literature have nothing to do with this study?
Maybe it is indeed irrelevant.

After all, this is an academically blank article, so there won’t be many citations.

"He didn't even come to discuss this with me, and just threw the reviewer's face to the ground." Teacher Guo's expression was a little complicated. "But even so, this paper is the first one among his eight articles to be published?"

"I understand. Even if the reviewer saw this sentence, he still wanted Zhou Yue to continue citing it. Otherwise, he could have just withheld the journal or just let it sit until Zhou Yue deleted this sentence. But this expert is different. After citing it, he passed the review. He really didn't care about his reputation for the sake of the journal's citation rate!"

Mr. Chen also smiled bitterly, "If he had any shame, he wouldn't have given such a review opinion and made such a strong request... It was Zhou Yue. If it was another young scholar, he might have just added it directly, and there would be no way to stop it."

"This is a fierce warrior." Old Chen seemed to have realized what was going on. "But what did you just say? What eight articles?"

When this was mentioned, Teacher Guo smiled and said, "Oh, he submitted a total of eight papers to top international journals. This is the first one to be published. Although there is no news about the others, they should also be in the review stage."

Mr. Chen stood there for a moment, dumbfounded. "You mean, he has seven more papers like this?"

"Has it even passed the preliminary examination?"

"When did it happen?"

Mr. Chen was completely confused.

Eight articles!
This is not cabbage, it won’t grow out of thin air!
Moreover, as far as the quality of this paper is concerned, apart from anything else, just filling the academic gap is enough for countless top scholars to put this paper on their desks and study it carefully, at least in the next period of time.

You said there are seven more papers like this?
Doesn’t that mean that for the next period of time, there will be a pile of Zhou Yue’s papers on the desks of those big names?

Is this to fill the international frontier, or to teach those big names?

"Not long ago, more than a month ago, less than two months ago, he started to study these eight projects. But I think he himself must feel a little surprised that this article could be published." Teacher Guo also felt that this matter was a little unbelievable.

I can only say that the people I met were so shameless. Zhou Yue had already pointed it out clearly, saying that those references to be added were indeed irrelevant to the scientific research of the current paper.

After reading the paper, the reviewer might not be angry but instead expedite the publication of the paper?
It's like, as long as you cite my paper, I will pretend I didn't see anything.

After all, the reviewers are an important part of whether a journal can publish its paper. Generally, the external reviewers are authors who have submitted their papers to this journal or experts who have submitted their papers to this journal.

However, generally speaking, there will not be only one expert invited to review a manuscript.

Although their authority is not unlimited, if they take several months or even half a year to review your manuscript, you cannot say anything about it, after all, they are doing the review for free.

If the reviewer makes a small change like this, then it will be difficult for you to publish your paper as soon as possible.

It was unclear whether Mr. Chen's expression was complicated or shocked. "Eight papers in more than a month? Even if this paper is delayed, it won't affect him, right?"

"The old man has never fought such a rich battle in his life!"

"If I were him, I would also confront the reviewer!"

"I even sent an email to the editor to question why he would choose such a reviewer!"

“It’s not academic misconduct, but at least it’s shameless.”

Mr. Chen thought of his own project and sat down again feeling somewhat powerless.

"Our project team has been working non-stop since mid-November and finally managed to publish an article in a top international journal. Moreover, it is an academic hotspot that has already been basically verified by others."

“Although we are working on new projects now, we can only publish one top-level publication every month.”

"You told me that he completed eight projects in a month? And they were all of this level? Why do I suddenly not believe it?"

"Why does this academic circle seem to have been created for him?"

"Let's not talk about us. For a research institute like Jinghua University with so many academicians, being able to produce two papers in a month is considered pretty good, right?"

"Even worse than this young man?"

"Chosen civil engineer, huh? Raised on concrete?"

Mr. Chen became more and more excited as he spoke. He is an academician!
He is a person who stands at the top of the scientific research in the entire country!

To say that you publish one article a month is even flattering yourself.

Others write eight articles a month?

Doesn't that mean Zhou Yue is equal to eight academicians?
How many academicians are there in a research institute of Jinghua University?
Are you going to let others get by?
