Chapter 90 is published in "Nature"!
"Professor Donaldson, Ning Chen has sent the original version of the paper, please continue the review work."
Seeing the paper in his mailbox, Donaldson also seemed Very excited.
After all, this is a research topic on Qiu Chengtong's conjecture. Although the work involved only solved part of the problem, its research significance is still very huge.
Through previous research on Ning Chen’s simplified version of the paper, Donaldson already knew that the theory of this paper is very powerful, and some original methods are used in many places, which is highly novel. and academic value.
Just to more accurately evaluate the value of this paper, Donaldson still hopes to see a more detailed version of the paper.
Opening the paper attached to the email, Donaldson studied it carefully.
The content of this paper is more than fifty pages. Compared with the condensed version of the paper, it adds a lot of theorem proof processes, which made Donaldson smile.
As a true mathematician, Donaldson naturally enjoys happiness from the process of studying mathematics, especially this kind of breakthrough and high-quality paper.
In order to study the content of this paper, Donaldson spent a lot of time conducting detailed deductions and calculations on every detail in the paper.
After spending several days, Donaldson finally completed the review process of the entire paper.
“It’s so shocking. It’s a nearly perfect theory! It can actually ingeniously transform a class of fourth-order completely nonlinear elliptic equations in this way!”
Donaldson I haven't been this excited for a long time. If Donaldson could decide whether to publish this paper alone, Donaldson would not hesitate to publish this paper in the next issue of the Journal of the American Mathematical Society.
In excitement, Donaldson searched for the personal information of this person named Ning Chen.
“A scholar from China... is only nineteen years old?”
After seeing Ning Chen's age, Donaldson felt even more incredible.
At this age, generally speaking, you have just entered college. It is already very good to be able to learn mathematics courses well, and you have not yet reached the stage of starting to do project research.
Before this, Ning Chen had completed the publication of four SCI papers. In addition to three papers in the field of mathematics, there was even one involving the field of materials science.
At this time, Donaldson really had an urge to meet this young Chinese man in person and have a good chat with him in person.
“Oh, now I should give my review comments first.”
In his excitement, Donaldson almost forgot that he was the reviewer of this paper and quickly wrote his review comments.
In the review comments, Donaldson expressed his high affirmation of this paper and suggested that Moyle could publish this paper.
……
Ning Chen didn’t know that a Fields Medal winner named Donaldson had read his paper and gave it a high evaluation.
Since the other two reviewers did not give their review opinions, the submission status of this paper submitted to "AMS" has not been updated.
But what makes Ning Chen happy is that another paper he submitted to "Nature" finally gave the latest reply.
The editors and reviewers responsible for this paper are very interested in Ning Chen's research topic, and after professional review, this paper has passed the review of "Nature" .
"Ning Chen, the response from the editor of "Nature" is very positive! If nothing else happens, your paper will be officially published in "Nature" soon!"
Same as before, this paper still needs some minor revisions, but Ning Chen is already used to these situations.
Ning Chen revised some details of the paper according to the editor's opinions, and sent the revised paper to the delivery mailbox of "Nature".
Things went smoothly after that. After receiving the revised paper, the editor of "Nature" did not give any other suggestions this time, and directly gave a "formally accepted" reply. This also means that Ning Chen’s paper will be officially published in Nature.
After hearing the news, Ning Chen was very excited.
"I really... want to publish an article in "Nature"?"
Ning Chen knows how difficult this achievement is. Many researchers spend their entire lives trying to achieve it. Publish an article in a journal such as "Nature", "Science", and "Cell".
Looking at the whole country, the number of articles that can be published in CNS every year is only more than 200.
The news quickly spread within the School of Materials Science and Technology, and the teachers in the School of Materials Science and Technology were all happy and proud of this matter.
Especially Liu Xu, dean of the School of Materials Science, called Ning Chen directly to express his congratulations to Ning Chen.
"Ning Chen, I have said before that with your ability, there is absolutely no problem in doing research on materials science! Your paper may be better than the one you got in the autumn competition. The results are even more valuable!”
In the autumn competition, Ning Chen’s single-handedly winning five gold medals and one silver medal really attracted a lot of attention on the Internet.
But after all, it was just a competition, and the results this time were of real academic value.
"Thank you, Dean Liu. If you hadn't let me enter the laboratory in advance, I definitely wouldn't have had this opportunity."
Ning Chen naturally wanted to be polite to Liu Xu. Of course, this was also what Ning Chen was thinking.
The school indeed gave Ning Chen a high degree of freedom, so that Ning Chen did not need to be restricted by various regulations and could fully utilize his talents.
"Hey, Ning Chen, you are too polite to say that. This time the college will not give you a separate bonus. The previous bonuses were all specially approved by me. It is not a problem if I give special approval too frequently. Great. But don’t worry, the rewards given to you by the school are very generous.”
Ning Chen also understood Liu Xu's difficulties. After all, the college's funds were limited, and he could not always accept additional rewards from the college.
"It doesn't matter, I have already received many awards from the college, and it is really not appropriate to receive more."
"Haha, just understand. Wait until the paper is officially published. , the school’s bonus process will begin, and it may take a little longer, so don’t worry about it.”
“No need to worry,”
Ning Chen said. Don't be in a hurry, of course I still hope that these bonuses will arrive as soon as possible.
"Um... Dean Liu, may I ask, how much is the bonus this time?"
"Because your article is an official issue of "Nature", according to the scientific research reward policy of Shengzhou University, the first The author and the corresponding author each receive a bonus of 250,000 yuan.”
Hearing this figure, Ning Chen was a little surprised at first, because this bonus amount is enough for him to repay Zhou Li’s loan and buy a high-end model. There is no problem with the computer.
However, because Ning Chen is only the first author of this paper and not the corresponding author, the remaining 250,000 bonus will go to Xu Zhou.
To be fair, Xu Zhou’s work on this subject may not be worthy of such a high reward.
However, Ning Chen would not have any objections to this. After all, these were the rules that had been established long ago, and Xu Zhou also completed his job very well.
While Ning Chen was thinking about this, Liu Xu continued:
"But Teacher Xu Zhou came to me specifically and said that he would leave all the five hundred thousand bonus to you. He said that he You deserve the entire half-million bonus for not doing anything in the project.”
