"Ning Wei, a senior student at the School of Mathematics and Statistics at Jiangcheng University, published two papers in October and November in two top academic journals, Nature and Science. What level does this rank in the Chinese university circle? Global History Are there many undergraduate students studying like this?”

On November 17, 2021, this anonymous question was quietly ranked first on the Zhihu hot list, with a popularity of 47.23 million.

Of course, the question this time was not concocted by a few guys in dormitory 302, but a question posted by the Jiangda account in person. However, they did not buy hot searches, but silently invited many Jiangda alumni and major educational media. Big V answered.

I wanted to make a small splash, but who would have thought that the aftertaste of October's Nobel Prize would still keep countless netizens enthusiastic about scientific progress.

In particular, the name Ning Wei has already caused controversy on the Internet, but this time it popped up again, and it was out of control.

The number one answer to this question is from a former Jiangnan University alumnus who is now studying for a PhD in materials science at Yanbei University.

"What level? Of course it is the world's top level! To be honest, an undergraduate student who can publish papers in the two top journals "Nature" and "Science" for two consecutive months would rather be the first in history. Regardless. Harvard, Yale, Tsinghua and Peking University have all been severely trampled on."

"Ordinary people may not know how difficult it is to publish a top SCI journal. Let's put it this way, generally speaking, it is relatively easy to publish papers in the four tiankeng majors of biochemistry and environmental materials. However, for a doctoral degree, five SCI or one For me, with an impact factor of over 20, it is still a nightmare to publish an article in SCI."

"If it weren't for review papers, experimental design, data paper writing, submission, review, and feedback, the cycle of half a year would be considered very fast! There is almost no rest in the whole process, and I have to spend time in the laboratory every day. God knows what I would rather do How did you manage to publish papers in top journals for two consecutive months?”

"Of course, I also noticed that Ning Wei published a letter in Science, which is Science and Technology Express. This does not require much data support, but you must know that those who can review papers for top journals are The top scholars in the industry. It is impossible to get away with messy things. This is enough to show that Ning Wei's research direction has been professionally recognized."

“Finally, I found a video of the school’s internal interview with the dean of Ningxia University from the Douyin account of my alma mater. Everyone can see the demeanor of the deity and encourage them.”

…

This time it was really popular.

Not only Zhihu, but also major online media began to follow up, including the three major portals that published the news.

What's more, because the answer with the most likes mentioned Harvard and Yale, the question was directly translated into English and then posted on Twitter.

The title was also directly changed to: What is the SCI level of the two top issues in two months? Beating the level of Harvard and Yale!

Some people even directly added English subtitles to the video of Gong Xiaofei interviewing Ning Wei and posted it directly to Tik Tok and Facebook.

As for the inside of Jiangda...

Now there are really students who are willing to spend ten yuan to visit the bed where the students slept in 302.

…

Yancheng is a small city in the northwest of Hubei Province. It was once famous for being the second heavy-duty automobile manufacturing plant in China.

But in the new century, due to inconvenient transportation, automobile factories also moved out here in batches, which also caused the small town to lose its former economic vitality. Fortunately, there are still some supporting production bases left around this small town.

Lao Ning works on the radial tire production line of the tire factory in Yancheng.

This weekend, Lao Ning stayed at home to rest, half lying on the sofa watching TV, while his wife knitted a sweater beside him.

When the factory was very profitable, it was common to work overtime on weekends. But now that the factory is less profitable, the daily work schedule may not be full, let alone weekends.

Motorcyclists don’t dare to run.

The child is really old and dares to threaten his father. The key is that Lao Ning feels that he really can't do it now. When violence fails to make Ning Wei surrender, Lao Ning, who lacks high-level educational means, is really afraid that Ning Wei will come back and give up on himself and find a job in a random factory.

Ning Wei is his lifelong hope.

The most important thing is to save others by yourself.

According to Lao Ning, he knew very well that with his own temperament, if he were put in his son's position, he would really be able to do such a treasonous and sinful thing.

So although he hung up Ning Wei's call with great momentum, he didn't dare to go out for a motorcycle ride again.

The TV program was boring. Thinking that it was because his wife was too talkative that he couldn't earn some money to supplement the family income, Lao Ning rolled his eyes. He was about to cause trouble for the people around him and had a few words when the phone left on the coffee table suddenly rang. stand up.

He glanced at the phone number and saw that it was the workshop director, so he lazily picked up the phone and answered the call.

"Hey, Director Chen, what's going on?"

"Hey, Old Ning, I remember your son's name is Ning Wei, right?"

"Yes." Lao Ning replied.

"Where did he take the exam?"

"Jiangcheng University!"

"Are you studying mathematics? You are a senior this year?"

"That's right. No, I said Director Chen, why are you asking that boy for nothing?" Lao Ning asked strangely.

"Ning Guoqiang, don't you care too much about your own son? Your son is very promising now! My wife was telling me just now that what your family Ningwei wrote was published in some foreign magazine. It was not a mess. That kind of magazine is the kind of magazine that specializes in publishing articles by the most knowledgeable people in the world. It’s amazing! It is said that many scientists find it difficult to publish articles in it.”

"My wife also said that this news has spread all over the Internet. In the future, your Ningwei will definitely become a great scientist. If you want to study abroad, famous foreign schools will rush to get that kind of thing! I congratulate you first. , when your son comes back from winter vacation, tell me and I will take my son for a visit. My son is in his third year of high school this year and is not good at math. Please help Ning Wei and teach him how to learn math. Is that okay?"

"Ah? It's okay to talk about learning methods, but are you mistaken? Ning Wei never told us this!"

Lao Ning sat up straight and Erzhang asked confused.

Mother Ning next to her also stopped what she was doing and looked at her husband.

"There is no mistake. You can check WeChat later. I asked my wife to send me the video on her phone. I will send it to you and you can watch it yourself."

After speaking, Director Chen on the opposite side hung up the phone.

"What's going on? What's wrong with Ning Wei?" Ning's mother asked.

"Chen Zhengqiang said that our son is now more powerful than a great scientist, but I don't understand the specific situation. These young people are a mess. Don't I still know my son? He has only just gone to college and he can be more powerful than a great scientist? I guess he can be more powerful than a great scientist. It’s a mistake!”

Lao Ning said with disdain, but his eyes were full of expectations. He opened WeChat without saying anything and waited silently.
