Rebirth of the God-level Xueba

Xu Zhengping and Professor Fu stayed in the library until night before they stopped in a daze.

The materials they searched were not limited to the most recent issues or dozens of issues. The oldest materials were almost in the early 1970s, which was as long as a century in terms of the development speed of biotechnology.

However, apart from repetitive or meaningless information, Xu Zhengping and Professor Fu basically found nothing useful.

"How did he do it?" Professor Fu found it inconceivable.

Xu Zhengping shook his head and laughed: "Before I came in, I never thought that this would happen to me."

"No one expected it. If I hadn't known in advance, I would have thought that Yang Rui had a team of 50 people." Professor Fu rolled his eyes and said, "Tell me, would Yang Rui have been preparing for this project for a long time? ?”

"how long?"

"A year or two?"

"He was preparing to repeat his studies two years ago, so he didn't have the time to do this. Afterwards, he also wrote a thesis on potassium channels and competed with Richard... Besides, Professor Kato from Tokyo University was also considered for this topic selection. In the field of research, cooperation, there must always be a look of cooperation.”

Professor Fu nodded silently, and after a while, he smiled self-consciously, and said, "This ability makes people speechless."

"Forget it, Professor Qian from our Department of Chemistry can see ten things at a glance, and he has a photographic memory. What can we do with the ability of the world." Xu Zhengping then half mentioned: "Actually, if you don't need this ability, just rely on the present." Yang Rui can make people speechless if he writes a thesis well."

Professor Fu's expression froze for a moment, and he said, "I have nothing to say about Yang Rui."

"That's what it means, alright, let's pack up and go, I'll return these." Xu Zhengping called a student, and together they moved the table full of materials to the librarian.

The great Peking University librarian immediately opened the elevator and moved the stacks up one after another.

"We checked so much at random. I really can't imagine how Yang Rui checked it." Professor Fu tiredly helped carry it, and had a deep understanding of this quantity.

The great Peking University librarian registered book by book, and asked with a smile: "After looking up so many materials, don't you want to borrow some back?"

"No need, Yang Rui has prepared all these materials." Xu Zhengping was a little helpless.

The great librarian of Peking University let out an "oh" and said, "Yang Rui is Yang Rui from the Department of Biology, right? The author of that CELL paper?"

"Yes, you know that too."

"I wrote CELL in my freshman life, and it will be spread all over Beijing." The great librarian laughed and said: "If others don't know, we have to know. By the way, you can help send the newly sent watches. Bar."

Professor Fu asked, "What watch?"

"New Moon Summary" sent by CELL.

"and also?"

"Of course. This is CELL. Look at others, you only need to publish an article, and the number of citations in the next year or two will be calculated for you."

"All citations?"

"That's right, I don't know if it's Thomson or Reuters data."

Professor Fu hesitated for a moment and asked, "How many citations have Yang Rui received?"

The great Peking University librarian smiled mysteriously: "You guess.

"

Professor Fu and Xu Zhengping, who were pricking their ears, almost choked to death.

"How much?" Professor Fu's local accent came out.

"you guess."

"Guess..." This time, even Xu Zhengping raised his eyebrows. If there were not too many hidden characters in the librarian, he would jump up.

"CELL has 3 citations in the current issue, and 13 citations in the next three issues. The total citations... Hehe, you can't think of it."

"You just say it directly." Professor Fu is not interested in the number of citations in the current issue and the number of citations in the third issue, or he has already guessed it.

Last time, Yang Rui’s paper had three citations in the current issue, and 11 citations in the next three issues. Now the citations in the current issue have not changed, and the citations in the next three issues have become 13. Although it is very scary for ordinary players The data is out, but it is not surprising for a CELL paper.

Of course, because it is the number of citations of CELL in the current period and the citations of the next three periods, whether it is 3 or 13, it is very rare in itself. In other words, general CELL articles cannot produce such data, but With the previous comparison, neither Xu Zhengping nor Professor Fu found it surprising.

The two are more concerned about the total number of citations.

After all, when we make quantitative evaluations, including domestic universities and government agencies, we analyze the total number of citations.

For researchers, this is a very important indicator, because the indicators for applying for funding, evaluating titles, and appointments equivalent to room for improvement are the total number of citations.

No matter from the perspective of career or personal interests, funding, professional titles and government appointments are closely related to researchers themselves, especially the latter. Academicians can be said to be well-known government appointments. In addition, the university An appointment such as a principal is as much about politics as it is about academics.

Of course, the ultimate government appointments are academic think tanks and industry authorities. Figures like Greenspan have, to a certain extent, been able to separate from the government and implement independent financial policies.

In the field of biology, food policy and various agricultural policies, pharmaceutical policies and various medical insurance policies are not something that politicians can think about in one word, because they will not, so the person who makes the final decision can only be trusted. academics.

When Xu Zhengping and Professor Fu were young, they might have dreamed of becoming academic leaders one day, but when they were in their 30s and 40s, they had a basic understanding of what they could do, and this kind of thinking gradually faded away.

However, what step Yang Rui could take was beyond what Xu Zhengping and Professor Fu could predict.

This is also a major source of curiosity.

The librarian was blinded by the eyes of the two, quickly flipped through the notebook, and said, "77."

"How much!" Professor Fu raised his voice and startled himself.

The librarian quietly lowered the octave and said, "77, this is the total number of citations for more than a month."

"Sleeping at home for a month, you only received 77 citations?" Professor Fu's heart was crazy.

77 citations, if it is a blog reprint, of course it is too small, but if it is a paper citation, it is too many.

The impact factor of CELL is between 30 and 40 all year round. According to 35, it means that in the past two years, the average number of citations of papers published on CELL is 35.

77 is already more than double that of 35.

If it is compared with the papers of the same period, this number will increase several times.

In fact, the number of citations of powerful papers often breaks through the sky, for example, reaching 500 citations that most researchers cannot achieve in a lifetime.

However, most people have heard of such papers, and there may not be a few papers appearing throughout the year.

For the most normal papers, the number of citations is often single digits.

For example, "Biochemical System Ecology" published by Yang Rui, an entry-level journal, the average number of citations is not even 1.0. Not even 20!

"I remember that the school wants to give extra rewards to papers with more than 10 citations?" Xu Zhengping suddenly remembered this rule.

Even at Peking University, there are not many papers with more than 10 citations. This is why the school encourages everyone to publish high-citation papers instead of accumulating citations for low-citation papers.

Professor Fu also remembered, but said with some hesitation: "It used to be a reward for the teacher, does Yang Rui count?"

"Let Professor Cai have a headache." Xu Zhengping filled out the form with a smile, and took the "New Moon Summary".
