don't call me singer

Chapter 695

Jeffrey is more than 50 years old, in fact, he has passed the golden age of a researcher, but this discovery made him feel like 20 years ago, writing like a fountain, and he directly concocted the paper after staying on the boat all night come out.

At this moment, although Jeffrey is not at the pinnacle of his intelligence, he is at the pinnacle of his power.

He himself is a reviewer, editor, and even editor-in-chief of a top marine science journal.

After he wrote this article, he first threw it to another editor under him and sent an email, and then immediately began to send this paper to his friends and other reviewers. .

This discovery, of course, should be quickly sent to your friends to show off and share, and at the same time, it can be regarded as telling them: "This is my discovery, so don't grab it, I have written all my papers!"

As soon as the paper was published, it was ridiculed by friends immediately: "Conor, you old dog, are you crazy... How can a whale sing a human song?"

"Yes, this old dog must be crazy!"

"I have studied whales all my life. No one knows whales better than me. Whales can't sing human songs!"

Facing the doubts from his old friends, Jeffrey was not afraid at all, and taunted: "If you don't believe me, wouldn't you listen to it yourself? If your ears are not deaf! Or you are too old to hear something?"

Then there was a silence.

These friends of Jeffrey are basically the best oceanographic researchers and marine biology researchers on the west coast of the United States, and several of them work in Hawaii.

They have set up various underwater acoustic research and collection points all over the world.

After turning up the recording and hearing the whale singing, the eyeballs of these old guys almost popped out.

how can that be!

Whales are actually singing human songs!
This melody, this rhythm, this mode, is definitely human music!

"Damn it, you, an old dog, discovered it first and wrote the paper first! Shit! This is the biggest breakthrough in cetacean research in the past few years!"

"Even a blind old dog can't starve to death, and can always pick up sausages discarded by others!"

"Let me see what kind of clumsy opinion you old dog has..."

Although sarcasm and envy and hatred, Jeffrey's friends have passed the review of this paper one after another, but in just a few hours, they have decided to publish this article in the next issue of the journal .

After going through this process, Jeffrey directly issued an online publication on the journal's website and posted part of the abstract.

This can be regarded as enclosing land. For this kind of paper involving "discovery", whoever is faster will take advantage.

This is also widely advertised.

After doing all this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

This race against the clock is finally over.

Then, he opened his mailbox, and found that there was still a paper lying quietly in his mailbox, which was also written about the changes of whale songs.

The paper, from Subianto, an oceanographer at the University of Indonesia, has been lying quietly in Jeffrey's mailbox for more than a day.

Seeing this paper, Jeffrey curled his lips in disdain, then wrote a random comment and sent the paper back.

Are there any good oceanographers in Indonesia?
Moreover, the truth is not in the hands of the person who discovered the truth first, but in the hands of the person who published the paper early.

Compete with me on my journal, how is that possible?

With such arrogance, Geoffrey stretched himself, turned and went back to sleep.

After such a toss, he has not closed his eyes for 28 hours.

For a person who is over half a century old, it is completely overdrawn.

Back in the cabin, fell on the bed, he immediately fell asleep without knowing what happened.

On the other side, at the University of Indonesia, a middle-aged man habitually opened his own mailbox.

He is Subianto, an oceanographer at the University of Indonesia.

Although I know that every paper may be a long wait after it is sent out, and sometimes it takes several months or even ten months before it is published.

But the timeliness of this paper is too strong, and Subianto really doesn't want to wait for a minute.

Since sending out this paper yesterday, he has been in a state of anxiety, subconsciously refreshing his mailbox almost every 5 minutes.

Just after he refreshed his mailbox for the 172nd time, he suddenly heard a ding dong, and an email was sent back.

"Sorry, your paper lacks originality, so it will not be published temporarily, please revise it before submitting it..."

Seeing this receipt, Subianto's head exploded with a "boom".

Ruined!
The so-called "lack of originality" must be the same as others, someone got there first!
Is it faster than people writing papers and publishing papers faster than yourself?
Subianto touched his half-bald head, frowning deeply.

The study of whale songs is hard to come by, after all, who cares what the whales in the sea sing?
But it's different when whales start singing human songs.

This kind of research can well satisfy the curiosity-seeking psychology of human beings.

Scientific research is not cold and isolated. In scientific research, there is still an eyeball economy.

Scientists, like the general public, are more likely to be drawn to sensational research.

In addition to attracting the attention of peers, attracting the attention of the public is also of great benefit to research.

What is attention?Attention means more grants, more donations means more research results!

Just look at Gu Xiaobai. Researchers all over China and even the world, seeing his research environment and funding sources, will probably stare with envy. When others are still applying for a few million When he spends so much time begging his grandpa to sue his grandma for research funds, his fans can donate hundreds of millions of research funds to him!
If there is no result like this, how can we produce results?
And there are many such examples.Hawking wrote the world's best-selling popular science book "A Brief History of Time" in order to improve his status and status; NASA, in order to prevent the US government from reducing its own funding, hypes some big news every once in a while, and brushes itself off There is no shortage of world-class news, and the results are obvious. When it comes to high-tech, many people immediately think of NASA. In various movies, NASA is crazy. When it comes to NASA experts, Many will be in awe.

This is what fame and presence are for.

Subianto is one of the best oceanographers in the University of Indonesia, but after all, the University of Indonesia is not run by his family, and his funds are also limited. If possible, he also wants to get a scientific research ship to go on the ocean. Go adrift instead of renting a small fishing boat every time and enduring the stinky fishermen and fishy smell.

And such a result is the first step for him to realize his lifelong goal.

But now, his normal path is blocked...

But it doesn't matter... I can still find another way!
Subianto ran to the principal, and within a few hours, a press conference was held in a flash!
