Chapter 129 The end of the road

At this moment, the audience felt that today's speech was really worth it!

Someone questioned the speaker on the spot for falsifying his paper, which was already eye-catching and added a drama to today's speech.

Although Huang Yuxi suppressed Zhang Wei's doubts with a few words, the audience felt that they had gained something, and at least they had something to talk about after dinner.

However, what everyone didn't expect was that things were not over yet, and there was a reversal!

The young man who questioned Huang Yuxi’s paper forgery was no ordinary cat or dog. He was also a top scholar who could publish papers in the journal Science!
In an instant, this scene was ten times more exciting than before!
Secretary Cui from the embassy originally planned to grab the microphone directly from Zhang Wei's hand, but now his whole body was stuck in an instant.

Scholars of the same level as Huang Yuxi should not try to rob him, otherwise he might cause a diplomatic turmoil!

Huang Junji, who was behind, stared at Zhang Wei's back with his eyes wide open, and kept mumbling in Korean: "No way, it's not him!"

At this time, Huang Junji's thinking had begun to become chaotic. His eyes were wide open, his pupils were filled with light of disbelief, and his pale face showed that he did not dare to accept such a reality.

A few seconds ago, he was still clamoring for Zhang Wei to publish an article on "Science" first and then question Huang Yuxi.

In the next few seconds, Zhang Wei told him, isn't it "Science"! I actually posted it, and it was in the same issue as your father!
The slap in the face came too fast and too violently, so violently that Huang Junji didn't even react.

More importantly, this slap was completely beyond Huang Junji's cognition. Zhang Wei actually published a paper in "Science"!
Huang Junji was already desperate when he heard Zhang Wei published a paper in "ACM Computing Survey". He never thought that a person could be so good that he could achieve an impact factor of 16 or above at the university level. Published a paper in a journal and was the first author!
However, Huang Junji realized at this time that he had underestimated Zhang Wei! What is the ACM Computing Survey? What is the impact factor of 16? He has published it in Science!
When he learned that Zhang Wei had published a paper a few days ago, Huang Junji was still wondering whether Zhang Wei could really hold back and make such important results without going around to show off. If it were you, wouldn't you hold several parties in a row to show off?
Now Huang Junji understands that it is not Zhang Wei who can bear it, but others think that it is really unnecessary! You’ve already published in Science, why would you still care about ACM Computing Survey?
It's like the co-pilot of your Porsche is a young model, how can you show off to others and reward 100 starting coins for passing the level?
Huang Junji was completely confused at this time. By the way, the person I was criticizing during this period was actually an academic figure who could publish a paper in "Science"?

……

The exchange students sitting in the back row also had horrified expressions.

"Did I hear you right? Zhang Wei said he published a paper in Science!" The little Brahmin was stunned and his eyes almost popped out!
"You heard right, Zhang Wei did publish a paper in Science!" Ye Haotian smiled calmly, then looked around with a satisfied expression.

"Are you frightened by my big devil? You are these country bumpkins who have never seen the world!"

"That's Science! The world's top journal!" the little Brahmin continued.

"What do you think? We have always been talking about "Science"!" Ye Haotian replied.

"You already knew that, didn't you?"

"Isn't this nonsense! I came here with Zhang Wei, how could I not know!"

"In other words, Zhang Wei is an academic master who can publish papers in Science! Oh my God! How is this possible!"

"What's impossible! He is Zhang Wei!"

"Ye, I must be dreaming, give me a slap to wake me up!"

"Snapped!"

"Ouch, it hurts, you really hit me!"

"Are you awake?"

"Wake up!" The little Brahmin covered his face, then looked around and found that he was still at the venue. He found that Zhang Wei was still standing in the first row, holding the "Science" in his hand.

"I'm awake, but it seems I'm not awake yet!"

"Pah!" The little Brahmin also received a slap on the other side of his face.

……

Exchange students usually have a lot of group activities, so they are relatively familiar with each other.

What other exchange students know about Zhang Wei is that he is from China, speaks fluent English, has a driver's license, drives a petroleum man's Land Rover around every day, and has an acquaintance who is a Turing Award winner.

It wasn't until Zhang Wei published a paper in "ACM Computing Surveys" that other exchange students realized Zhang Wei's ability.

Of course, there are many people like Huang Junji who are envious and jealous. But the vast majority of exchange students feel that Zhang Wei should be the better one among this exchange students.

But at this moment, everyone realized that they still underestimated Zhang Wei! Not only among exchange students, but also among the entire circle of scholars, Zhang Wei is one of the outstanding ones!
Ordinary scholars do not have the ability to publish papers in Science.

"Just now Zhang Wei said, what is the name of the paper he published in Science?" Someone asked.

"It seems to be some kind of electric field effect!"

"The electric field effect of atomically thin carbon films!" Ye Haotian's voice sounded.

"What are you studying?" the little Brahmin, who was still covering his face, asked immediately.

"Atomic-level thin carbon film is graphene! Zhang Wei is the first person in the world to successfully make graphene!" Ye Haotian continued to introduce. Everyone nodded as if in a sudden realization. They may not know what graphene is, but they still understand the title "No. 1 in the world."

Ye Haotian smiled triumphantly, and then told everyone about what graphene is.

……

At the level of exchange students, it is normal for them not to know about graphene. However, among the people watching the lecture, there were many scholars and professors from Berkeley. These scholars may not be majoring in physics or materials science, but there are many people. Know about graphene.

There are only a few of the world's top scientific research achievements in a year. Scholars can also learn what graphene is by paying attention.

"Did he invent graphene? I didn't expect him to be so young!"

"Graphene? Is it that new material? I heard someone mention it, saying that this new material has very good properties and may become the king of materials in the future!"

"I thought this Chinese was just an ordinary college student, but I didn't expect that he is also a top scholar! And he is so young, he must be a genius!"

"Cloning human embryonic stem cells and making graphene are the most important scientific research results this year. It is said that they both have the potential to win the Nobel Prize. I didn't expect that there are two of the world's top scientists in this venue today!"

"The key is that these two world-class scientists are fighting each other. Now there is really something good to watch!"

There are not a few people who don't mind watching the excitement, and there is no shortage of people in the United States. What's more, today's drama is getting more and more exciting. Originally, it was a college student who questioned the academic tycoon for falsifying his paper, but now it is two academic gurus who are going to fight each other!

The flashbulbs began to flash non-stop, and the cameras of the reporters on the scene were also aimed at Zhang Wei, taking pictures wildly.

This also includes the reporters who just helped Huang Yuxi build momentum.

They received money from the Korean Embassy to help Hwang Woo-suk write promotional articles, but the promotional articles were not as popular as those in the academic world!

At worst, I won't charge you the retouching fee of a few hundred dollars, I'll just refund it to you.

Compared with big news, a few hundred dollars is nothing!
Getting a big news story is not just a matter of a few hundred dollars, but a promotion, a salary increase, becoming a CEO, marrying a beautiful woman, and reaching the pinnacle of life!
……

At this time, the most embarrassing person in the entire venue was Huang Yuxi himself.

Originally, he had already put the matter aside, and the next person he asked to ask a question had already stood up, but at the last moment, Zhang Wei took out the "Science".

Before that, Huang Yuxi could use his academic ability as an excuse to deliberately ignore Zhang Wei, and others had nothing to say.

But the situation is completely different now. Zhang Wei also published a paper in Science, in the same issue as him, and Huang Yuxi actually read the graphene paper at that time!

Huang Yuxi knew the value of graphene, and he had to admit that if graphene was really made by the young man in front of him, then his academic status was no worse than his own. The two were scholars of the same level.

Faced with doubts from scholars of the same level, Huang Yuxi can no longer use academic ability as an excuse!
He must also respond, otherwise the label of fraud on the paper will really be taken off.

Huang Yuxi fell into silence, thinking about how to respond.

If he had not falsified the paper, he could confront Zhang Wei now, but the key point is that his paper was indeed falsified, which left him completely speechless when faced with doubts.

"You said you published the paper in Science, but it was really you! Maybe you just have the same name!"

The voice from the third row sounded again, and the question still came from Huang Junji, who had come to his senses.

Zhang Wei said: "It is too easy to verify the author of the paper. There is no need for me to lie! If you don't believe it, I have the contact information of Science here. You can call to verify my identity!"

Huang Junji immediately shut up. Since Zhang Wei dared to ask him to go to Science for verification, he must be the author of the paper.

What's more, Huang Yuxi didn't dare to actually call to verify.

Call the "Science" editorial department to verify. When the time comes, no one will ask, what are you going to do to verify Zhang Wei's identity?
Is it possible to tell the editor of Science that this Zhang Wei is questioning the fraud of my paper?

This is equivalent to directly telling "Science" about the eleven photos. Shouldn't "Science" check it? Huang Yuxi couldn't stand the investigation.

This is stabbing yourself! Therefore, Huang Yuxi would never dare to ask "Science" to verify Zhang Wei's identity.

At this time, everyone's eyes were looking at Huang Yuxi on the podium, wanting to see how he would respond.

Huang Yuxi was already at the end of his rope. He knew that he would not be able to avoid this matter today, and he had to give a positive response.

After thinking for a moment, Huang Yuxi found a new excuse; "Mr. Zhang, you just said that the eleven photos used in my paper all came from the same embryonic stem cell.

I think you must have made a mistake, but this is understandable. After all, you are not an expert in biological sciences. You don't know that things like embryonic stem cells actually look the same! "

"It just looks similar?" Zhang Wei chuckled and took out the comparison chart of two of the photos, preparing to give the final fatal blow.
