My art is too advanced.

Chapter 323 Super First-Rank Lineup! (Seeking monthly votes!!!)
soon.

A piece of news caught their attention.

After evaluation by several academies of sciences, they unanimously selected a group of journals for rating.

Two journals under Zhou Yue's management.

One is the Journal of Chinese Architecture, and the other is Architectural Beijing.

These two journals have been successfully selected as top-tier journals!

It became the next top-tier journal to be selected after the previous six, making it now one of the eight journals!
This news shocked almost all the top leaders in China's scientific research community.

"Professor Zhou managed to elevate two journals to the ranks of top-tier journals in just one year? He even elevated Ningbo University's architecture journal to the ranks of top-tier journals?"

"That's incredible! I just submitted a paper to this journal a couple of days ago, and now I'm a little scared, what can I say?"

"A top-tier journal, almost second only to those few world-class journals."

"But those world-class journals aren't in our architecture industry! You could say those two journals have successfully reached the ceiling of the architecture industry!"

"Authoritative, so authoritative!"

"Professor Zhou is such a genius, he's incredibly strong. This might be the first time our journal has been selected as one of the top-tier journals in a certain industry, right?"

"Yes, they are journals we created ourselves, and there were two of them at once!"

"..."

Almost no one knew how to describe it. Journals of this level are inherently difficult to develop, and their comprehensive evaluation is determined by various impact factors. The fact that they have been selected as top-tier journals proves that their influence has reached the pinnacle of the industry!
Moreover, there are only about two or three truly top-tier journals in most industries.

There are already six journals in architecture, which is quite a lot for the field, each with a different focus. However, the two newly added journals are not single-discipline journals.

It is a comprehensive study of architecture.

That's incredible!
Moreover, China is somewhat lagging behind in science and technology. Even though it is not far behind in scientific research and has been catching up with the top, lagging behind is lagging behind, and almost no one can deny that.

They don't even dare to dream of having top-tier journals here!

Although they are all trying to catch up in various industries, they have not reached the top level. Domestic journals are basically selected domestically, and they are not good enough to be considered on the world stage.

Being able to enter the world's top tier is already a result of a lot of hard work. The architecture school is even somewhat outstanding, but it is still only a world-class journal.

Therefore, the fact that two major journals have been selected shows that the industry has fully accepted the influence of these two journals, and that their influence is sufficient to reach the world level!

And all this.

It's simply because their editor-in-chief has changed.

"This is Zhou's level of expertise!"

Professor Cao kept marveling at how Professor Zhou could bring about revolutionary changes to the construction industry.

In fact, there aren't that many people who reach the top in the architecture industry. Professor Liang was the editor-in-chief of this journal before, but even he didn't have the ability to elevate it to the ranks of the best.

It's not that we lack skill, but rather that we lack new ideas and a large number of projects with global impact.

When Professor Liang was the editor-in-chief, he diligently collected papers, and the work progressed slowly. Although the progress was not great, it was indeed developing steadily.

If this pace of development continues, it may be able to join the ranks of the top tier within the next ten or twenty years.

But Professor Zhou is different. He directly and drastically reformed the system, basically discarding all the old, clichéd, and superficial innovations.

As long as it's something new, and no matter how bad it is, Professor Zhou can help you improve it. He'll teach you how to write a paper step by step, and his feedback will even be more extensive than the main text itself.

Who can stand this?

This is essentially equivalent to Professor Zhou publishing a paper in this journal all by himself.

Not an exaggeration at all!

One person single-handedly elevated two major journals to a top-tier level.

Just how skilled is this editor-in-chief?
As for Professor Lin, who was standing to the side, he could only remain silent.

"He's not even human!"

The papers in this journal are incredibly diverse, covering almost everything; otherwise, it wouldn't have achieved such influence. It covers everything from industry hot topics to academic gaps.

As for papers with innovative points, there are even more of them.

You can come up with ten innovative ideas on a whim, or even write these ideas into a semi-finished paper and send it over. Professor Zhou will then review and approve them.

As long as your idea is feasible, no matter how outlandish it may seem, Teacher Zhou can make it appear reasonable.

We could even make this thing for you directly!
As for some theories and mechanical aspects, those are even more authoritative.

They had no idea how Teacher Zhou's brain worked.

It seems that anything related to architecture, no matter what it is, is probably incomprehensible to the average scholar. After all, there are barriers between different specializations in architecture, and it's true that different fields are like different worlds.

But it doesn't exist for him at all.

The saying "different professions are like different mountains" simply means that no one has come to him yet.

"Compared to Professor Zhou, Professor Liang is still too conservative."

"Didn't you also serve as the editor-in-chief of this journal for a period of time? What, are you admitting you're getting old now?" Professor Lin sighed softly.

"Indeed, there's no way to compare it to this kind of monster."

Professor Cao looked at the list of nominees.

"In fact, some of these top-tier journals have lost much of their influence and can be directly replaced."

"It's just that they have a strong network of connections, and they control the selection process for these organizations."

"But next time, we should at least reduce it a bit, maybe still six."

"Now it's one of the top eight journals. If a layman saw it, he would think that the architecture school is booming like never before."

"Architecture did indeed experience a brief period of prosperity," Professor Lin remarked. "After all, Professor Zhou brought so much vitality to the academic world."

"However, we've heard that he's neglecting his duties and hanging out with those liberal arts professors, which really saddens us."

“I’ve heard about this too. It seems he’s going to compile some kind of dictionary. I don’t understand. He’s even applied for national-level funding.”

"Young people really love to take risks."
