Chapter 92 The Open Access Movement

"Yaugmov Voigt." After making a phone call, Officer Xiao frowned slightly as he looked at the data transmitted from his mobile phone: "This is a troublesome person."

"Troublesome person..." Xiang Shan was a little strange: "What kind of trouble?"

Officer Xiao Hu nodded: "Well... Since you and this Mr. Voigt may have a long-term contact in the future, I will tell you first-this Yawgmoth Voigt , is a supporter of the 'open access movement'..."

"Oh!" Xiang Shan clapped his hands suddenly: "I have an impression. Professor Yawgmoth... looks younger than expected."

Officer Xiao Hu was very strange, and asked with a bit of vigilance: "Do you know this person?"

"I have seen the name." Xiang Shan said: "I have scanned the relevant content in the open access library."

Officer Xiao Hu nodded, but he was still a little puzzled: "This guy is an expert in the field of genetics. He has nothing to do with you, right?"

"I saw this name when I glanced at it casually, and I was a little impressed. And my supervisor has an interdisciplinary project with biology, so I will go to the paper database in the field of biology to find information." Xiang Shan said embarrassedly, he was because of the name It has the same name as the Boss of a certain game I played, so I was impressed.

Officer Xiao Hu nodded, "That's true. This guy is really amazing. He got a doctorate and a teaching position in his early twenties. He is a famous figure in the field of proteomics. From a professional point of view, he is indeed the most suitable person to come here. Scholars here. The Technical Department of the United States recommended him for that."

"However, when the NSA brought him here, the FBI submitted an emergency report, saying that they had long suspected that Professor Yawgmov Voigt was an extremist supporter of the open access movement..."

Xiang Shan was a little puzzled: "Is the open access movement a good thing?"

The open access movement is a movement initiated by European and American academic circles in the early 90s, aiming to free science from the control of copyright and publishers.

As we all know, evaluating whether a paper is "good or not" basically depends on the "impact factor".To discuss the impact factor, first mention the SCI (Science Citation Index Science Citation Index). SCI is the current citation index as a relatively objective, fair and authoritative evaluation method, which can be used to comment on the academic value of papers or journals.

If evaluating a single paper, it depends on the number of citations of this paper.

If you evaluate a journal, calculate the total number of citations C of the papers published in the first two years of the journal in a certain year, and the total number of papers published in the past two years is P, then the impact factor IF=C/P.The larger the impact factor, the higher the value of the journal.

But the problem is that although these two methods can be called "objective", this "objective standard" is itself beneficial to the publishers of journals.

It is essentially a crude advertisement.

Even this "evaluation system" itself is included in a company's "intellectual property" and "business".

The academic circle has also been looking for a more powerful and fair evaluation system.

In the eyes of scholars like Xiang Shan, this can be said to be a great attempt.

"That's not the problem." Officer Xiao Hu shook his head: "The FBI accused him of being in contact with a hacker organization and suspected of stealing paid materials from the university's database without permission and uploading them to the Internet—but They don't have proof yet."

"Hey, beat the local tyrants and divide the papers, righteous men...ah no, revolutionaries." Xiang Shan nodded approvingly: "Amazing."

Officer Xiao Hu was quite vigilant: "Comrade Xiang, what you said..."

"Don't worry, I'm just praising this kind of righteous deed, and I won't do it myself." Xiang Shan spread his hands: "I'm not a fool either. Only peace can lead to development."

"These extremists are self-proclaimed 'Guerrillas in the Internet Age', and they are afraid that the world will not be chaotic." Officer Xiao Hu said seriously.

"By the way, why did the United States send him here?" Xiang Shan was a little puzzled: "If he is really an extremist, he might just turn around and upload the secrets of this park to the Internet for everyone in the world to know."

"The FBI just listed him as a suspect before." Officer Xiao Hu said: "They haven't reported him yet, and he was brought here. In short, this person is still an opinion leader on campus, and it is said that he is also connected with environmental protection organizations. An unstable element."

Xiang Shan nodded: "I said, why are you so angry? It turned out that I was writing and drawing outside, not like recording inspiration, so he regarded him as a spy. This kind of person must deeply hate 'monopolizing information' 'This kind of behavior, so I couldn't help stabbing two sentences."

Thinking of this, the little unhappiness in Xiang Shan's heart disappeared.Anyway, he didn't suffer any real loss, but let the other party misunderstand his identity and made a small joke.

"Hey. We really need to pay attention to the level of this Professor Voigt. But we can't fully agree with his behavior."

Officer Xiao Hu gave Xiang Shan a few words about "discipline" and left in a hurry.

It seems that there are indeed a lot of government affairs work now.Only scholars are more relaxed.

Xiang Shan turned on the air conditioner in the room and read a book.Remembering that it was time for dinner, I set off for the cafeteria.

The canteen is also a newly built house, and all the building material modules are shipped directly from overseas, and the construction is completed within one day.The food inside is provided by the United States military, providing roast chicken, steak, mashed potatoes, bean soup, noodles, French fries, jelly, and coffee, juice and bread 24 hours a day.

The taste of this thing is not very good, but due to the strong food industry of the United States, the quality of the ingredients is good, and the cooking is as close as possible to the "popular taste".Xiang Shan asked for some mashed potatoes and bread, and added some chicken and beef.

The cafeteria was built temporarily, and there were not many seats. In addition, it was peak hour, and Xiangshan was holding a plate, so he couldn't find a seat for a while.

"Xiao Xiang, here!" A familiar voice came.Xiang Shan looked up and saw Old Liu waving at him.When he got closer, he realized that Lao Liu, Professor Zhang and Professor Jing were all sitting together and eating.Lao Liu and Jing Hongtu sat side by side, while Professor Zhang sat opposite Lao Liu.

Xiang Shan quickly sat down opposite Jing Hongtu.

Professor Zhang shook his head and said with a smile: "I told you not to call him, young people don't want to eat with old men like us. Sitting here feels restrained."

"Come on, I don't know my students, one or two are disrespectful." Lao Liu looked at his favorite student and said, "Xiao Xiang, don't you think so?"

Xiang Shan said modestly: "I love my teacher, and I love the truth even more."

"Hahaha." Lao Liu said with a smile: "That's the virtue. If you give three points to the color and dare to open the goods of the dyeing workshop, he will feel restrained? As long as you don't have the authority to deduct his salary or funds, he will dare to ignore you."

After joking with Professor Zhang, Lao Liu turned to Xiang Shan: "Speaking of which, Xiao Xiang. This is the first time you have come to this tropical area, right? Are you used to it?"

"It's very hot, and I feel like I'm going to suffer from heat stroke at any time." Xiang Shan shook his head: "The southernmost place I've ever been to is Jingchu... Oh, I went to the mountain city with my family when I was young. It's not so hot, and it's okay to eat Appetite."

Professor Jing nodded: "Well, yes, if it's hot, you have to pair dishes with a strong taste, not heavy sour and spicy, it's hard to whet your appetite. The food in Southeast Asia is heavy on spices. The cooks in the United States don't seem to have thought about it. "

Xiang Shan dug a ball of mashed potatoes with a spoon: "This mashed potatoes have a peppery taste. I heard that the United States warships provide ice cream..."

"Not now, maybe in the future."

Due to acclimatization, Lao Liu and Professor Zhang didn't have a good appetite, so they didn't take much food.When they came to Xiangshan, they had almost finished eating.The two "right-year" professors stood up and said, "Professor Jing, take it easy. The two of us went for a walk outside. Xiaoxiang and you too, eat more if you have an appetite, and prepare for a long-term war of resistance."

After the two professors left, Xiang Shan moved aside without a trace.He has a good relationship with Lao Liu and has met Professor Zhang a few times, but he only has a few words of friendship with Jing Hongtu, a member of the academic department.It's not good to be too casual with such an elderly person by your side.

Jing Hongtu held a piece of French fries and asked, "I heard that you had some friction with scholars from the United States."

Hearing this, Xiang Shan put down his fork, and said with a smile, "You are really well-informed. But I have to state in advance that it's not that I had conflicts with others, but that the friend from the United States misunderstood my little hobby. "

Xiang Shan had to express his admiration for Jing Hongtu's connections and face.Director Hu and a few others probably knew about the conversation between himself and Yawgmoth, but he didn't expect it to reach Jing Hongtu.However, this misunderstanding still needs to be explained. After all, we will all be colleagues in the future. If this incident leaves people with the impression that "this person is a thorn", that would be bad.

After listening to Xiang Shan's explanation, Jing Hongtu nodded slightly: "Oh, writing science fiction...it's a good hobby."

Xiang Shan grinned: "I thought you would think I was not doing my job properly. Old Liu...Although Mr. Liu didn't say anything, he still didn't think so in his heart."

"Haha." Jing Hongtu swallowed the French fries in his hand: "When I was young, I actually wanted to be a science fiction novelist. Have you heard of "Little Smart: Roaming the Future"? I was very popular when I was young. I should They were the first readers of that book."

"Little Smart Roaming the Future", a children's science fiction novel written by Ye Yonglie, a famous novelist, reportage writer, and popular science writer in the Republic of China in 1978, tells the story of a young reporter who accidentally travels to the future.

Xiang Shan's eyes brightened: "Although I have heard about it, I haven't read it..."

"For people of your generation, it may not be very interesting." Jing Hongtu said, "But for me who was in elementary school, it really opened a door."

Xiang Shan asked: "You said you also want to write novels, have you published any works?"

Jing Hongtu shook his head regretfully: "The family won't allow it."

　I've been in a bad state for the past two days, which made everyone worry, I'm sorry.

　　The second part of the PY event: "I am a monk in Liaozhai"

　　Thousands of calamities, boundless sinking.

　　The young man who traveled through looked at this cruel world, and chose to stand up instead of submitting to it.

　　The Buddha saw three thousand broken, crossed the life and beheaded the sin.

　　Since demons and ghosts are rampant in this world and causing disasters in the world, then kill them!

　　Since the immortals and Buddhas in this world have no virtue and are domineering, then they are not immortals and Buddhas, so let them be beheaded!

　　This is a young man's journey of cultivating immortality from joking to actually embarking on the path he joked about.
