Starting from a top student and marching towards the sea of ​​stars

Chapter 21 When did you write the paper?
"The status of the paper submission...has changed?"

Ning Chen noticed that the position where the system displayed the progress of the task had changed from "paper being submitted" to "editor making decision".

However, judging from the information given by the system interface, Ning Chen is still not sure whether his paper has been accepted or rejected by the journal.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of bedroom 208.

Chen Tianpeng walked over and opened the door, only to find that it was He Sheng.

"Teacher He... why are you here?" Chen Tianpeng said in surprise.

Yang Yan and Yuan Shuai were also a little surprised, but they also subconsciously got up and greeted He Sheng.

"You haven't gone home yet, right?"

"Well, teacher, we can't leave school until the day after tomorrow." Chen Tianpeng replied.

When He Sheng came to dormitory 208 at night, he was naturally looking for Ning Chen. After a brief chat with everyone, he asked Ning Chen:

"Ning Chen, I called you and you didn't answer, so I came directly to you."

After hearing He Sheng's words, Ning Chen glanced at his phone and saw several missed calls from He Sheng.

"Sorry, Teacher He, my phone was muted just now, so I didn't hear it."

When Ning Chen is studying and working, she has always had the habit of turning her mobile phone to silent, which allows Ning Chen to better maintain a state of flow.

"It's okay. I just came here to tell you that there was a reply from "Progress in Calculus of Variations". I happened to be passing by here after get off work, and I just wanted to come up and see if you were there."

Because of publishing a paper, Ning Chen left his information with He Sheng, so He Sheng was able to find the location of Ning Chen's dormitory.

Chen Tianpeng, Yang Yan, and Yuan Shuai did not know what "Progress in Research on the Calculus of Variations" was, and looked at He Sheng and Ning Chen curiously.

"Teacher, what does the editor say?"

"No big problem, just need to make some small changes, and then it should be ready for publication. I have sent the specific modification plan to your email address. If you have time, you can make changes and then send it to me."

Hearing what He Sheng said, a stone in Ning Chen's heart finally fell.

It is very normal for journal editors to ask contributors to revise their papers. Only minor revisions are necessary, which is already a very good result, and hearing He Sheng's tone, such a result also makes He Sheng satisfied.

"Okay, teacher, I will start revising it now." Ning Chen replied.

If you revise and submit the paper earlier, you can complete the task earlier. Ning Chen naturally hopes that the progress can be faster.

After talking to Ning Chen about the thesis, He Sheng was about to leave.

"Okay, then I won't bother you. We still have courses under advanced mathematics next semester, see you then!"

"goodbye teacher!"

After He Sheng left, Chen Tianpeng, Yang Yan, and Yuan Shuai couldn't help but become restless.

Just listening to the conversation between He Sheng and Ning Chen, they already roughly understood what Ning Chen had done.

"Brother Chen, when did you write the paper? Why didn't you tell us?" Chen Tianpeng asked.

"Oh, it was written a while ago. You didn't ask me."

Naturally, Ning Chen would not take the initiative to tell others about his submission of papers. This would be Chi Guoguo's show off.

"I started submitting papers in my freshman year. Brother Chen, isn't that awesome? And I just heard from Mr. He that you are still the first author of the paper?"

Ning Chen independently completed the research work on this result and also completed the writing of the article alone. Naturally, he is the first author of this paper. "Yes, of course Teacher He also provided me with a lot of guidance and help." Ning Chen said.

Without He Sheng's help, at least Ning Chen would not have written the thesis so quickly.

At this time, Yang Yan also remembered something.

"I said that Ning Chen had been using the computer all the time, so it turned out that he was writing a thesis. Not only did he get the first place in his major in the final grade, but he was able to find time to write a thesis... What kind of monster is this?"

Before Yang Yan fantasized about being compared with Ning Chen, now it seems that the gap between himself and Ning Chen is not the slightest bit.

Perhaps in Ning Chen's eyes, the final exam is not a big deal at all, but writing a thesis is a more important thing.

"Brother Chen, when your paper is officially published, will you be able to guarantee research?" Chen Tianpeng asked.

"I don't know. The first semester of my freshman year has just ended. I haven't thought about it so much."

Ning Chen knows that he is just in the initial stage of learning, and his future development direction has not yet been fully determined.

But no matter what, Ning Chen will keep her original intention, keep learning and exploring.

The next day, the instructor Zhang Kun found Ning Chen and told him about staying in school during the winter vacation.

"You can stay in school during the winter vacation. You need to write a written report to apply. At the same time, parents also need to know. The canteens will not be open all the time during the winter vacation. You need to pay attention to the notice of the canteen..."

Zhang Kun told Ning Chen some precautions for staying in school during the winter vacation, and Ning Chen had no objection to these requirements.

Since she chose to stay at school during the holidays, Ning Chen naturally had to abide by the school's regulations, and such trivial matters as the possibility of the cafeteria closing would not affect Ning Chen's determination to stay at school.

After telling Ning Chen about the application process for staying in school during the holidays, Zhang Kun continued:

"Ning Chen, why do you think you're going to stay in school during the holidays?"

"I just want to stay in school and read books. Anyway, it's still early before Chinese New Year."

Hearing Ning Chen's answer, Zhang Kun couldn't help but praise:

"No wonder you did so well in the exam. Others can't sit still at this time, and their hearts go home. But you must also pay attention to safety at school. There shouldn't be many people staying in school during the winter vacation."

"Okay, Director Zhang, please excuse me."

"It's not troublesome. When the application for staying in school during the vacation is completed, just send it to me and I will confirm with your parents."

After Zhang Kun left, Ning Chen called his mother, Wang Yanping.

Wang Yanping was a little surprised to hear that Ning Chen wanted to stay in school during the holidays, but when she learned that Ning Chen wanted to study in school for a longer period of time, Wang Yanping agreed.

……

With the official arrival of the winter vacation, the students of Shengzhou University left school one after another and returned to their hometowns.

Ning Chen's application to stay in school during the holidays was successfully approved. After that, Ning Chen will live in dormitory 208 alone.

The school collected the card number information of the students who received the scholarship, and soon Ning Chen received a first-class scholarship of 1500 yuan.

Recalling his college career in his previous life, Ning Chen couldn't even get the lowest third-class scholarship, and Ning Chen couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

The first-class scholarship is an affirmation of the student's academic achievements in one semester, and its significance is not just pure money.

But 1500 yuan is indeed too little for Ning Chen.
