Chapter 181 Accidentally forgot(2/2)
After all, whether this computing platform can be truly efficient will directly determine its future reputation and whether it can receive some big customers.
During this period, Qiao Yu also took the opportunity to learn about the current status of scientific research in China. Then he found that his previous estimates were too optimistic.
It turns out that 90% of the research groups in China belong to the kind of hard-working people with little money. Especially those basic research projects.
There are also many unknown professors or researchers who find it very difficult to reimburse some money. After all, even if they get the project, it will be paid into the unit account.
Expenditures must be signed by the leaders of the units. For those hard-working researchers, the expensive computing services are simply unaffordable.
Like Professor Zhang, he dares to pay 2 million in consulting fees for just being a consultant. He is already a wealthy and wealthy boss that is rare in the industry.
No wonder Liu Hao is determined to follow his boss.
So if you really want to make money, those small research groups can only gain a reputation, and they must be supported by well-known large research groups.
Most of the large scientific research groups are personally responsible for it, and they often have fixed partners. If you want to take advantage of others, you will definitely put forward higher requirements for the capabilities of the platform itself.
At least the first two times can make people realize the benefits of using their own models, and then they can take more orders.
Just like that, it was the end of April.
The system framework of the platform has finally been built. Of course, it will take some time to debug it slowly.
Fortunately, this part of the main work can be taken care of by the assistant researcher at the Institute of Computing Technology.
Qiao Yu only needs to stare at the background every day, wait for feedback on the problem, and then do some processing in time.
Qiao Yu, who finally felt relieved, received a call from Tian Yanzhen before he could think of how to celebrate.
As soon as he answered the call, before he could announce the good news, he heard a scolding from the person on the other end of the phone.
"Qiao Yu, are the phone number you left in the submission system and the email address the center gave you just for decoration? You submitted articles to other journals, and their editors couldn't contact you, so they found me here?"
After hearing Tian Yanzhen's reprimand, Qiao Yu remembered that he had submitted a manuscript to JAMS more than a month ago.
He has really been busy and forgotten recently.
It’s true that I haven’t looked at my mailbox for a long time. In other words, Qiao Yu has never developed the habit of checking the mailbox regularly.
As for the phone number... Some time ago, he felt that there were too many spam calls, so he simply enabled the whitelist function. Sure enough, he felt that the world had become quiet.
After all, it is very unpleasant to always have your thinking process interrupted by random phone calls.
Well, this is indeed his fault. He has been so busy recently that he forgot that he also submitted a paper.
But Qiao Yu felt a little aggrieved. Couldn't Director Tian review himself first? If he was willing to be the corresponding author, this problem would not have arisen.
As for making a phone call late at night to scold yourself?
Of course, Qiao Yu just thought about the last sentence in his mind and didn't dare to say it out loud.
"Oh, Director Tian, I forgot. You know, I've been too busy recently. I really don't have time to check my email. As for my mobile phone, um... you know the whitelist, right? Well, why did the editor of JAMS contact you?
?Does the paper still need to be revised?"
Qiao Yu asked.
"The paper does not need to be revised, and it has been proofread and finalized! However, before it can be officially published, you need to log in to the personal center account of the JAMS online submission system and sign a formal electronic copyright transfer agreement.
They have sent you the link and instructions for signing the agreement via email, but there has been no movement from your side. I can’t get through on the phone. If you weren’t in a hurry to publish in April, you can see that others are ignoring you!
JAMS is a quarterly journal! This means that if your paper cannot be published in time this month, you will have to wait until July to be published! I have been alive for a long time! When people publish papers, they have to go to the backend every day to check the status! You are better off, editor
No reply to emails, no answer to phone calls..."
Qiao Yu recalled that this seemed to be standard procedure.
It’s just that before I submitted my manuscript to Princeton’s Annual Journal of Mathematics, I seemed to have signed it directly when I submitted it.
I subconsciously explained: "I thought it would take a while to review the manuscript. Who knew reviewers were so efficient! After all, I only submitted the manuscript right after the semester started."
"Okay, hurry up and sign the agreement, and then explain a few words to others, otherwise the editor will think you don't plan to publish it. You kid, day by day..."
After saying that, Tian Yanzhen hung up the phone.
Qiao Yu felt ashamed and quickly logged into his mailbox. As expected, JAMS's official mailbox had sent him a total of six emails...
In the past, he received an email reminder every time he changed his status. Later, he was reminded to sign a copyright licensing agreement, and three emails were sent to him.
The editor was even afraid that his work email had been blocked for unknown reasons, so he tried to send him the same email using his personal email...
Well, I have to change my bad habit of not checking my mailbox.
I quickly entered the personal center of the online submission system through the official website email link, and followed the prompts to sign the copyright transfer contract.
Qiao Yu sent an extremely sincere letter of apology through the editor's personal email, and the incident was over.
Chapter completed!
