I Have A Super USB Drive

23 - Associate Professor Zheng Jian

Chen Chen walked briskly on the forest path in the campus.

At this time, it was early spring, and the sky was raining like a light rain, and the fragrance of soil was filled everywhere.

In the crowd of people, Chen Chen can always attract a lot of attention.

Chen Chen's appearance is not outstanding, but the temperament that his whole person exudes from the inside out, makes him the most dazzling one in the crowd.

It's obviously just an ordinary T-shirt and jeans, but in Chen Chen's gestures, he wears the feeling of a big-name star.

Quietly exiting the profile page about Xia Yin's mentor, Chen Chen put down his phone, showing a look of contemplation.

"A very scheming person..."

This was Chen Chen's first voice to the other party.

In the information in the college, the other party's name is Zheng Jian. He is an associate professor. He is 38 years old this year. He graduated from North American Sarria University with a double doctorate in biochemistry and pharmacy.

To be able to win the title of associate professor at such a young age, the opponent's ability and skill are indispensable.

Although this person's status in the academic world is far inferior to that of Wang Xi, he is still a big mountain for Chen Chen.

Once a conflict occurs, Chen Chen has no chance of winning.

Of course, that was before.

Chen Chen checked Zheng Jian's information on the Internet. At most, the information only mentioned that the other's spouse died of medulloblastoma a few years ago, and the two did not leave any children.

But only half a year later, Zheng Jian has another new love, the other is the daughter of a high-ranking official.

It was followed by a picture of a man sitting at a desk.

The man's cheeks were thin, he wore gold-rimmed glasses, and his eyes were a bit mean.

In addition, behind the man is a neat bookshelf, and on the desk in front of him is a computer, a pen holder, a thermos cup, and a photo frame.

The frame was blurry, and it was barely discernible that it was the figure of a woman in a white dress.

The reason why we can find these is thanks to the highly developed Internet.

Of course, that's all there is to it.

It is impossible to find more detailed information about the other party on the Internet, after all, the other party is not a star in the entertainment industry.

Soon, Chen Chen came to the bottom of the office building No. 3.

"Chen Chen!"

Not far away, Xia Yin trotted over with a wave of her hand and kept apologizing as soon as they met, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really didn't expect it to be like this!"

"It's okay, tell me what your instructor means."

Chen Chen waved his hand, and the two walked upstairs together.

"My supervisor hopes that you and I can give him the positions of the corresponding author and the first work. In exchange, he can let us successfully obtain the qualifications for the postgraduate research."

Xia Yin said, "Of course, if you have other conditions, it's fine, just..."

"Then what do you mean?" Chen Chen turned to look at Xia Yin.

"The tutor is ready to apply to the school, let me make an exception to protect the research..."

Xia Yin was a little distressed, "I think it's pretty good. Isn't this experiment just to protect the research? Now that we have achieved our goal, the two papers are fine, right?"

Chen Chen shook his head and said nothing.

There is a mental trap here.

If these two papers are successfully published, Xia Yin and Chen Chen will be able to obtain the qualifications for the postgraduate research. Not only that, these two papers can bring huge dividends to the future of the two.

Using the position of the first author and the corresponding author to exchange for the qualification of the researcher is itself putting the cart before the horse.

However, Chen Chen didn't say anything against it. After all, this experiment was invested by Xia Yin.

If he does not agree to the transfer of the authorship of the correspondence, it will undoubtedly offend Xia Yin's mentor, and it will also cut off Xia Yin's road to research.

Of course, it's not Chen Chen's character to compromise directly. If you want the corresponding author, you can.

But the other party must pay enough price.

And listening to Xia Yin's tone, the other party wanted not only Chen Chen's corresponding author, but also Xia Yin's first work.

In fact, according to international practice, the first author is the corresponding author by default.

This situation is very common. Generally, the first work is the person who contributed greatly to the paper. Unless the corresponding author is specifically marked, the first work is the corresponding author by default.

And this Professor Zheng, is exactly the position to be absolutely one.

Seeing that Chen Chen didn't speak, Xia Yin also fell silent.

The two went all the way to the fifth floor and came to the door of Xia Yin's tutor's office.

"Chen Chen, for the past three months, I have seen your ability in my eyes. If you really can't do it, you should reject him..."

As if gathering courage, Xia Yin suddenly said such a sentence.

"Don't worry, I know what to do."

Chen Chen shook his head, suddenly picked up his phone, and said to Xia Yin, "By the way, who is the woman on your tutor's desk?"

"Ah?" Xia Yin tilted her head and looked at it, "This, this is his deceased ex-wife, what's wrong?"

"Oh, it's alright."

Chen Chen nodded, turned and knocked on the office door.

"Please come in."

A hoarse voice came out, and Chen Chen pushed open the office door and walked in.

This is a fifteen-square-meter office.

As seen in the picture on the Internet, the office furnishings are exactly the same, even the position of the pen holder and photo frame on the desk is exactly the same.

"Hello, Professor Zheng."

After looking around for a while, Chen Chen withdrew his gaze and nodded to the middle-aged man in front of him.

"Oh, you are the Chen Chen Xiaoyin said, come, come, please take a seat!"

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man in front of him actually stood up and shook hands with Chen Chen enthusiastically.

Seeing Chen Chen's flattered expression, the middle-aged man couldn't help but chuckle, "Xiao Yin, go back first, I want to have a good chat with classmate Chen Chen."

"Okay." Xia Yin nodded, gave Chen Chen a wink, turned and left the office.

It wasn't until Xia Yin went out and closed the door of the office that the middle-aged man's expression straightened.

"I'll introduce myself first. My name is Zheng Jian, and I'm Xiaoyin's mentor. I heard Xiaoyin say that it only took you three months to complete a very innovative experimental project. It's really not easy. ."

"Fortunately, it's not all my credit. Xia Yin and another roommate of mine also helped a lot."

Chen Chen sat on the sofa, looking at the office while answering.

Zheng Jian's office is not large, except for a desk and a bookshelf at the back, there is only a mahogany pendulum clock at the entrance.

This pendulum clock is a grandfather clock. It is two meters high. The pendulum below is golden yellow. It can be seen swaying continuously through the transparent glass. It looks very luxurious.

Chen Chen looked interested, he stood up and walked to the pendulum clock, looking at it carefully.

"Why, are you interested in my pendulum clock?" Zheng Jian laughed.

"Professor Zheng, is this pendulum clock from the Netherlands?" Chen Chen asked rhetorically.

"Hey, classmate Chen Chen is so researched on pendulum clocks?"

Zheng Jian said in surprise, "Yes, this pendulum clock is indeed imported from the Netherlands. I put it here because it looks good."

"The pendulum clocks made in the Netherlands have the most classical charm, but unfortunately they have not been accurate enough and often need to be adjusted."

Chen Chen nodded, "Professor Zheng, do you know what time it is?"

"Now..." Zheng Jian looked at the time on the clock, "Isn't it 9:35 in the morning?"

"But it says 9:40 on my phone."

As Chen Chen said that, he directly opened the protective case of the dial of the clock, and set the time back five minutes.

Zheng Jian frowned, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"Now, the time is right."

Chen Chen smiled, turned and sat back on the sofa.

Seemingly feeling that the atmosphere was not right, Zheng Jian glanced at the pendulum clock before saying, "Chen Chen, let's get straight to the point."

Chen Chen immediately showed a look of listening.

"You must know that Xia Yin is my student, and I have every reason to be responsible for the experiment she invested in."

Zheng Jian is earnest and persuasive, "But for the sake of your efforts, I will not treat you badly. After all, I am very satisfied with this experiment, and your abilities and ideas are even more amazing. I am very optimistic about you. Willing to invest in you."

Chen Chen didn't speak, but his expression seemed to have begun to shake.

"Well, when you are in your third year, choose me as your tutor, and I will directly apply to you for a postgraduate postgraduate place in our school, and try to use you for future projects and topics!"

Zheng Jian struck while the iron was hot, "Besides, I can try my best to help you get scholarships, but I only have one condition, and that is..."

"For the paper of this experiment, you must give up the signature of the corresponding author!"
