Chapter 1002: Chapter 1004: I Have a Book Chapter 1002: Chapter 1004: I Have a Book Sotis, it takes a long ti for sothing to fernt!
But sotis, it only takes one day!
George Xavier felt that he had just criticized Tang Sen for his incompetence yesterday, yet today he had to invite him to his office and personally make coffee for him.
This made George Xavier feel that life was really too… too bastardly.
Unfortunately, the chief editor had spoken, urging them to win over Chen Cang as much as possible and to produce a second paper on “Laparoscopic Techniques” as soon as they could!
And Tang Sen was a key figure in contacting Chen Cang, moreover, he was from the sa hotown!
George Xavier felt helpless about this!
…
In just two days, the magazine’s email inbox had received several thousand emails, which was quite strange.
Keep in mind this is an academic journal, not a story program or emotional column; where could so many emails co from!
Just as the company’s IT departnt suspected a malicious attack from competitors and hackers…
The IT departnt brought so good news!
The head of the backend IT departnt hurriedly brought the March issue’s report and data to the chief editor’s office.
The March issue of the “British Journal of Surgery” had just been published and received a lot of attention, with the number of article citations skyrocketing!
In just two days, the citations had exceeded what was usually achieved in ten days.
What are citations?
They are actually a scoring basis linked to the impact factor.
It can be understood like this, the more tis an article in this magazine is cited, the higher the impact factor will be!
This stunned the chief editor.
Why had this happened, was there any blockbuster content in the last issue?
Instantly, the whole magazine was abuzz.
Upon careful examination of the IT departnt’s data, as well as the letters in the company email.
The answer erged!
It was an article on “Laparoscopic Techniques” that had attracted countless readers who hoped that the next issue would publish similar high-quality journals.
This news excited the entire magazine.
If the impact factor of the journal rose, even its market value would significantly increase, clearly signaling a rhythm of promotion and raises, and bonuses.
Actually, don’t think that these academic journals are public; most of them are private groups.
Abroad, watching a downloaded academic journal can be quite expensive.
There’s relatively strict enforcent against intellectual property infringent and piracy abroad; typically, viewing an official paper costs a substantial amount of money.
Of course, in China, due to the existence of “mirror” technology, piracy thrives, and many people even wonder why they should pay for the genuine article.
It is precisely these behaviors that cause industries plagued by piracy to develop more slowly.
After all, without incentive, where is the competitive edge?
Hence, the reason for the good developnt of foreign journals lies in this: they have a loyal readership, value content quality, and engage in industry competition.
Conversely, many dostic journals are clever and very quick to adapt; if they can’t make money from readers, they’ll make money from the authors instead.
Thus, many distorted products have appeared in the industry.
As long as you pay the magazine a so-called “page fee,” you can publish an article, no matter if it’s rubbish; plagiarism checks? Unnecessary—no one reads it anyway.
Not to say there are no good ones in China!
Most of the good ones are also supported by enterprises and institutions, not for profit-making.
Of course, this is not to say that foreign journals are better, only that piracy is not a good thing, it has broken industry standards and affected the developnt of various industries.
…
The chief editor of the “British Journal of Surgery” imdiately found George Xavier, the editor responsible for that section, instructing her to maintain contact with Professor Chen Cang as soon as possible and hoping to commission an article from him!
George Xavier was dumbstruck when he got the news!
Because both articles were submitted by Tang Sen, and even in his view, they were not worth ntioning, but they surprisingly received such an intense reaction!
George Xavier was stunned!
Could his eyesight be that bad?
Thinking back to how he almost angrily drove Tang Sen out, George Xavier couldn’t help feeling deeply moved.
In the office, George Xavier looked at Tang Sen, “Tang Sen, I think your ability and insight deserve recognition.”
Tang Sen felt over the moon today!
Praise from the chief editor himself was an honor for any junior editor, and most importantly, he’d be getting a handso bonus this month.
Watching Editor-in-Chief George Xavier personally make him coffee, he was truly thrilled.
“Thank you, Editor-in-Chief,” Tang Sen said with a smile.
George Xavier nodded, “Hmm, the manuscripts you and Chen Cang invited last ti were great, and I hope you can keep in touch with Chen Cang for more information on laparoscopic techniques.”
After finishing speaking, George Xavier looked at Tang Sen and said sincerely, “I apologize for what happened last ti! I’ll consider your suggestions more carefully in the future.”
Tang Sen felt his life was complete.
Truly satisfying!
Chen Cang was literally his lucky star.
His current pay raise and previous job confirmation, it was all thanks to Chen Cang.
And about that promotion in the future…
Tang Sen quickly nodded, “Rest assured, Editor-in-Chief, I’ll take care of it.”
After Tang Sen left the office, he imdiately called Chen Cang.
“Chen Cang, you’re really amazing!” blurted out Tang Sen, startling Chen Cang who was asleep at 3 a.m.
“Huh? What? What’s going on?” Chen Cang picked up the phone, completely befuddled.
He glanced at the caller ID and the ti, then beca speechless, “Big brother, it’s 3 a.m. now. Do you think it’s appropriate to call at this ti?”
Tang Sen quickly apologized, “I’m really sorry, I was just too excited, bro, do you know? You’ve done sothing big! You’re going to be famous!”
Chen Cang was startled, his eyes lowering to the torn stockings on the floor… that was his big deed for the night…
“Hurry and speak… big brother, I really need to sleep,” Chen Cang said, feeling exasperated.
Tang Sen hurriedly said, “Those two articles you gave last ti are a hit!”
“Do you know? They’re going viral! The whole magazine office is excited now, our chief editor personally t , asking to contact you, and the Editor-in-Chief made coffee…”
Chen Cang moved the phone away from his ear!
He thought Tang Sen was a bit overexcited.
After a while, Chen Cang finally understood the situation.
His two published articles were a hit!
Such simple news, yet Tang Sen took about a hundred sentences to not explain it clearly, had he forgotten Mandarin after being abroad for a few days?
Tang Sen couldn’t help but laugh, “Bro, do you have any more on laparoscopic techniques? Can I book one? Don’t worry, it’ll be a cover story! I promise the cover!”
“I know it’s hard, but… push on, I know you can do it.”
Chen Cang was taken aback, “Okay, got it.”
Tang Sen was at a loss for words, “Take it seriously, brother, you’re going to be famous! By the way, are you writing anything new right now?”
Chen Cang nodded, “Yeah! I’ve got a book in the works.”
Tang Sen was stunned, “A book…”
…
ps: Wheeze, wheeze, wheeze, support please, so tired, off to sleep!
In fact, the power of piracy is terrifying; I urge everyone to develop the habit of supporting the original works.
