From University Lecturer to Chief Academician

The top journals mentioned by Wang Hao and Li Ming are not top journals in the actual sense, but "core journals of disciplines".

International academic journals have two ranking methods.

One is to roughly rank by the value of the 'impact factor'. The three major journals of "Nature", "Science" and "Cell" have long occupied the top positions of the "impact factor", and they are considered to be of "practical significance". Top issue'.

This ranking method is very inaccurate. It is not that the papers published in the top journals are better than other papers, because most of the papers in the top journals belong to the category of 'social science' or 'natural science' papers.

It is hard to say that social science or natural science papers are more meaningful than professional science and engineering papers.

Different types, can't compare.

Another way of ranking is to divide by discipline. Professional discipline journals can enter the ranks of discipline division, and can be ranked in the top dozens of disciplines, which are often considered as "discipline core journals".

This division is more professional and meaningful.

For example, the number of research papers on basic mathematics is very rare compared to other types, and the impact factor of professional mathematics journals is generally not high.

The impact factor of the professional mathematics journal that ranked first last year was only '17', and the second place dropped directly to '6'. Most of the core journals in mathematics have an impact factor between '1' and '3' .

Of course.

Even if it is divided by subject classification, there is no way to be accurate. For example, mathematics is recognized as the top four journals. Because the number of published papers is small, the impact factor will be much smaller. The ranking of mathematics subjects has always been outside the top ten. .

"Computer Mathematics and Information Engineering" belongs to the category of mathematics and computer, and belongs to the list of information and computer categories. Last year's impact factor was '11', ranking among the top ten disciplines.

That of course belongs to the "subject core journals".

Often the papers that can be published in the "subject core journals" can be called "excellent", and the difficulty of publishing is also very high.

Xihai University has more than 2,000 faculty members, including more than 700 professors and associate professors. Last year, it published more than 2,300 SCI papers, of which the number of "discipline core journals" was only more than 500.

Among the more than 500 papers published in the "core journals of the discipline", social sciences and natural sciences accounted for the highest proportion, reaching more than 70%.

There are more than 100 articles on application and engineering.

Mathematics, physics and other basic science research papers have the least number, only a poor dozen or so, and they are still published in journals whose subject rankings are at the end.

Wang Hao's "Fourier Transform" related papers belong to the mathematical computer papers and can be classified in the application and engineering categories.

Xihai University has a faculty team of more than 2,000 people, with more than 700 professors and associate professors. The number of engineering "discipline core journals" in a year is only more than 100, and Wang Hao contributed three in one go.

One can imagine...

How shocked and excited Li Ming will be when he confirms the news.

When Li Ming called Zhu Jianrong, Zhu Jianrong thought Li Ming was crazy when he heard the news, and asked him several times before he was sure the news was true.

Zhu Jianrong immediately went to the school's science and technology office.

Then, he and Li Ming browsed the webpage together, carefully reading the new issue of "Computer Mathematics and Information Engineering".

"Application expansion of Fourier transform, Fourier transform assisted construction of mathematical model data analysis algorithm (1), Fourier transform assisted construction of mathematical model data analysis algorithm (2)..."

"It's really three articles!"

"There is only one author, Wang Hao, and the unit is Xihai University, that's right!"

"It should be true!"

"This is a talent... no, it's a genius!"

Li Ming nodded vigorously, and said with some pride, "I knew for a long time that Wang Hao is a genius. I interviewed him. When he applied for a project, I directly gave it to him. He will definitely do it!"

Zhu Jianrong nodded, "However, please don't spread the news. We don't know the specific content of the paper yet, and we can't download it online."

"Wait a little longer, let's talk after we're sure!"

...

Zhu Jianrong and Li Ming had a good discussion, saying that they should keep the information secret first, but when there is big news that 'must not be kept secret', the desire to share is simply uncontrollable.

Only ten minutes later, Zhou Qingyuan got the news.

It was Li Ming who said it.

Li Ming thought that Zhou Qingyuan recommended Wang Hao to come to Xihai University, and thought that Zhou Qingyuan knew about it a long time ago, so he shared and discussed with him.

The same goes for Zhu Jianrong. He doesn't think it's a big deal to share the "big news" with his colleagues, as long as everyone doesn't say it.

Then Ying Wei, vice dean of the Faculty of Science, found out.

And then……

Wang Hao was sure that he could get the school's bonus, and he naturally felt very comfortable. He put several papers under the research topic of 'Partial Differential Equations', studied the operation problems such as uploading and application, and then went to the classroom as usual Lectures are over.

It was almost twelve o'clock when the class ended.

He went to the restaurant to pack a lunch box, and then returned to the office to submit the application.

The time is the beginning of the month, and the salary will be paid immediately.

Wang Hao hopes to get the dissertation subsidy as soon as possible. If he misses the salary payment time, he will have to wait until next month.

At noon, the office is very lively.

Yan Jing talked about the problems encountered in the experimental research. The aging measurement values ​​of laboratory equipment are not accurate, and it is very difficult to apply for the purchase of new equipment.

Several people comforted him and helped him find a way.

Zhang Zhiqiang said that he could try to make a report, and then apply for a "Youth Genome Project", and he would be able to have money to buy new equipment. When he talked about the application project, the topic turned to papers and "professional title promotion".

There was a lecturer in the next office, named Zhao Chunliang, who was a postgraduate tutor, and praised Zhang Zhiqiang a few words.

Zhang Zhiqiang seemed to be a little flustered, and began to talk about the topic of "Professional Title Promotion", "My experience is that if you have a core thesis, apply for a project, and the time limit is two or three years, you can be promoted to an associate professor."

Zhao Chunliang's face turned dark when he heard that. Like Zhu Ping, he has a system-system contract, and he still has a doctorate, and he has also published a core paper.

I have been working for more than four years, and I have not been confirmed to be promoted to an associate professor.

The 'experience' mentioned by Zhang Zhiqiang is no different from excreting foul-smelling gas.

Everyone in the office is used to it.

Yan Jing and Luo Dayong listened cheerfully, while Zhu Ping's expression was obviously full of dissatisfaction and disdain.

At this time, the door of the office was pushed open.

A female teacher wearing glasses yelled, "Deputy Dean Ying is here, as well as Dean Zhu and Dean Li of Academic Affairs, and several leaders are here. I heard them say 'associate professor'. Someone in your office mentioned associate professor. gone?"

Zhang Zhiqiang stood up abruptly, "Should be looking for me."

The others also nodded.

If you want to mention associate professor, it can only be Zhang Zhiqiang.

Zhang Zhiqiang simply stood at the door and waited. Looking around at the stairs, he saw a group of leaders walking over.

Zhu Jianrong walked in the front and saw Zhang Zhiqiang waiting at the door.

He glanced at the room number of the office, confirmed that it was this office, immediately grabbed Zhang Zhiqiang's hand enthusiastically, and said excitedly, "Young man, you are a talent! A real talent!"

"We discussed it just now. After the semester is over, we will apply for promotion of your title. Xihai University attaches great importance to talents. Special talents like you don't need to be limited by qualifications and teaching years. Special talents, special treatment, special Something special!"

"Thank you! Thank you for the leader's affirmation!" Zhang Zhiqiang's face was full of excitement.

A group of people gathered around.

Zhu Jianrong put his arms around Zhang Zhiqiang's shoulders intimately, "This is not a compliment, I'm telling the truth. Wang Hao, your name is well-earned, the grandeur is grand, the grandeur lasts forever, the vastness is like a sea of ​​smoke... the word 'hao'... "

As he spoke, he found the scene quiet down.

The people around stopped talking, and the young man in his arms stopped smiling.

what happened?

Zhu Jianrong looked around with doubts.

Zhou Qingyuan came over and pulled off his clothes, and reminded him in a low voice, holding back a laugh, "He is not Wang Hao..."

"—?"

Zhu Jianrong's face turned dark immediately.

Zhang Zhiqiang froze in place. He looked at the people around him and felt a kind of embarrassment called 'community death'.
