"There won't be any problems, right?" Professor Ferrig was still a little nervous. He had only misappropriated his students' research results before. This was the first time that he used his identity as a reviewer to help students plagiarize others. If it were not Soman's identity,

He didn’t dare to do this despite the background.￡∝

"Look! It's been so long now! The other party still hasn't raised any questions! He has probably given up on publishing a paper in "Science"!" Soman encouraged his tutor. This is the biggest event in mathematics in the past two years.

What a breakthrough! Why did a guy from Beijing Normal University find a solution? But now, as long as the review of "Science" is completed, this result will become his own.

"Soman, I'm always a little worried!" If he hadn't promised to provide a large amount of sponsorship for his institute from his family, and also agreed to share half of the prize money from the Clay Mathematics Institute, Professor Ferrig wouldn't have

Will agree to let him plagiarize.

"What are you worried about? Isn't it normal for two teams to make progress at the same time in the scientific research process? Since Leibniz and Newton can invent calculus at the same time, then what is the solution to the Poincaré conjecture that we and Beijing Normal University can propose at the same time?

What's so strange?" Soman tried his best to encourage his mentor, "Besides, it's not like we didn't let him publish in other journals; and even if others have doubts, think about it, do people believe more in Yale or Beijing Normal University?

?”

The last sentence made Professor Ferrig feel a little calmer. Indeed, almost any mathematician would subconsciously think that after hearing about the dispute between Yale and a Chinese university about who solved the Poincaré conjecture first.

Yale is the one who made the results first, which is also an important reason why he dares to help his students plagiarize.

Of course, if Lu Qiujian had signed the name of Princeton University on his paper, he would never have dared to do so! Now he is completely relying on the prestige accumulated by Yale over the years. Yale’s name can be suppressed in the academic world.

It has passed the capital universities in China, but there is no way to beat Princeton.

Although he doesn't understand Chinese culture, Professor Ferrig also knows that a persimmon should be pinched softly. In his opinion, Capital University is the soft persimmon, and if you pinch it, it will be gone.

"How is your work going?" Professor Ferrig asked with some worry. No scientific research results can be obtained out of thin air. If there is a dispute, a lot of information from the research process will have to be brought out.

Documents to prove it!

"I'm ready!" Soman took out a large pile of draft paper and notebooks. He has been busy with this these past few days, and even handed over most of the revision work of the paper to Professor Ferrig.

"No matter how familiar you are with the knowledge involved in this paper!", with these things you can use when quarreling with others, fortunately, mathematics research is not as good as physics and chemistry. It requires so many experiments, and it is easy to make lies.

It's much more convenient! The only thing he's worried about now is that Soman didn't study this paper thoroughly enough and was stopped by questions during his speech.

"In the few months after the paper is published, I will use the excuse of conducting in-depth research to stay behind closed doors. I will wait until I have completed these thorough studies before I come out to see people!" Soman is not very confident about this, but he is also prepared to deal with it.

Prepare.

"Well, when the time comes, I will send an invitation to the Capital University of China in the name of the Yale Mathematics Department. Both parties will jointly conduct in-depth research on this issue and send out a few exchange lecture places!" In his impression, those Chinese universities will conduct in-depth research on this issue together!

Professor Guo likes this very much, "If he is not satisfied yet, he will have to rely on you!"

"I will use my family connections to apply for naturalization for him!" Soman believed that after he gave such a big gift, the other party would probably give in. If he was not satisfied and started a lawsuit, he would not be afraid. After all, the United States

This is my home court, and the lawyers in my family are not raised in vain!

If the other party is interested, he has a high-paying position here, and he has American citizenship. If he is not interested, he has the famous name of Yale and an elite lawyer raised by his family. Soman thinks that he is fully prepared. As for "Science", Fei

Professor Rigg will naturally take care of it.

After a while, Professor Ferrig's phone rang. He hung up the phone after saying a few words, "The editorial board review has passed, and the article has now been forwarded to the reviewers."

"Who is the reviewer?" Soman's heart began to beat wildly. He seemed to have seen the moment when he appeared on the cover of Time Magazine; damn, why did I hide for several months? He thought

If there are no big disputes after a month, can you come out and be interviewed by reporters?

Should I wear an Armani suit and play the role of a young elite, or should I dress casually and play Frankenstein? While Soman was thinking about it, Professor Ferrig made several calls and finally asked for the name of the reviewer.

"One of them is Professor Rambo from MIT. I had a few chats with him at the International Congress of Mathematicians last year, and we had a pretty good impression of each other!" The first one is good news.

"Who is the other one?" Soman also knows the system of "Science" very well. If the other one can handle it, he will have the upper hand.

"Well, a troublesome man!" Professor Ferrig frowned. He had met that guy several times over the years, but he had never talked about going all the way.

"Who is it?" Soman looked at Professor Ferrig, and his heart was filled with a layer of haze.

"It's William Thurston from Princeton!" This time he didn't even bother to call him professor. "I'm not familiar with him. If something goes wrong, I'll have to rely on your relationship!"

"Okay, let's think about it. Our family seems to have donated money to Princeton. Let me see if I can find someone to talk to!" For the first time, things began to get out of their control, and both of them felt an unknown feeling in their hearts.

But they didn’t know that once the paper reached Professor Thurston, it wouldn’t just be rejected! Just when they started to contact various contacts, Professor Thurston also opened the email.

Huh? A new manuscript for "Science"? After opening it, I quickly browsed it. The familiar content of the paper made Thurston a little confused. Did Lu revise it and resubmit it? Why does it feel that it is worse than the first draft? This is

What's going on?

Since the reviewers could not see the names of the contributors, Professor Thurston thought this was Lu Qiujian's revised paper. If it was his resubmitted manuscript, he would have let him pass!

Professor Thurston smiled and began to write his review comments.
Chapter completed!
