Top Student

Wang Xiangwu, who has decades of experience in paper delivery, knows how difficult it is to publish a paper.

Wang Xiangwu still remembers, the most exaggerated time, the review comments that the journal editor replied to him, had to catch up with the length of Wang Xiangwu's thesis.

But in order to successfully publish the paper in the journal, Wang Xiangwu must also make revisions strictly according to the editor's opinion.

This time, for Xu You's paper, the editors of PRL only put forward more than ten revisions.

If it goes well, within two or three days, the revision of the thesis should be completed.

It took Xu You two days and nights to complete the revision of the thesis.

During this period, Xu You's roommate also saw Xu You busy in front of the computer.

But since Xu You didn't take the initiative to say it, everyone didn't ask in detail.

In fact, the revised content is not too much, but because it is an all-English paper, Xu You needs to consult a lot of professional vocabulary, and spends a lot of time on translation.

After re-proofreading by Wang Xiangwu and others, it was finally confirmed that there was no problem with the entire revision.

Wang Xiangwu sent Xu You's revised paper to PRL's review mailbox again.

This time, the reply was relatively fast. In just a few days, the editor of PRL gave a reply.

There is no problem with the whole paper, and this paper can be successfully published in the next issue of PRL journal.

After receiving this news, Wang Xiangwu's heart was finally completely relieved.

Xu You's thesis is of great significance to Wang Xiangwu.

This represents that Wang Xiangwu's laboratory has achieved a new breakthrough in the field of quantum physics research.

Xu You was also very happy when he heard the news.

Just wait for the next issue of the PRL journal to be released, and then you can see your own paper.

...

This issue of "Physical Review Letters" was published as scheduled.

Wang Xiangwu got several new issues of journals immediately, and notified Xu You to come to the laboratory, and gave Xu You a copy.

"Xu You, you can take it back and treasure it. Your starting point is already higher than the ending point of many people, but I believe this is just the beginning."

Such a high evaluation, Wang Xiangwu has never said to any student.

"Thank you teacher, I will definitely continue to work hard."

"That's right, Junior Brother, I think so too. But Mr. Wang, are you sure that the 'many people' you mentioned are not reading my ID number?" Zhao Weijia smiled wryly.

"If you insist on saying that, I must be one of the 'many people'. When I was a freshman at Ji University, I had trouble keeping up with the teacher's class, and I didn't think about scientific research at all. Question. Come on, it’s better, you also keep a copy, which has your name on it. Many people may not be able to leave their names on the PRL in their lifetime, and this is also worthy of your memory.”

For this thesis, Xu You also reciprocated, and gave Zhao Weijia the position of the third author of his thesis.

"That's right, even though it's only the third work, you can show it off if you say it out. Brother, keep up the good work, let me play a few more third works, and the resume is enough to bluff."

Although the three functions of the paper are not great, if it is a journal of the level of PRL, the three works are definitely the icing on the cake.

After Xu You took the journal back to his dormitory, he put it on his bookshelf.

This is the first time Xu You has published a paper in a journal.

Xu You thought that every time he published a paper in the future, he would collect that journal.

Strive to collect a lot of books...

No, it's better to have a lot of stacks.

The news that Xu You's paper was successfully published in PRL did not spread at first.

Only a small group of people in the industry, who often pay attention to physics journals, discovered this news in the first place.

Undoubtedly, this news caused a huge sensation in the industry.

Originally, PRL was considered by the physics community to be the top journal in the world.

Not to mention doctoral students, even professors in colleges and universities, it is difficult to successfully publish an article on it.

However, a boy who was only eighteen years old successfully published an article on it.

Xu You's name immediately resounded throughout the physics world.

Not only domestic physics circles, but even foreign physics circles are also discussing this matter.

As the news spread bit by bit, this matter gradually began to go out of the circle.

Some media with a keen sense of smell began to report on this incident.

"Shocked! Jida's 18-year-old prodigy has been published in the world's top physics journal!"

"Xu You, a genius in Huaxia, solved the problem of quantum physics at the age of 18! Shocked the world!"

"He won the IPhO championship on behalf of Huaxia, and his paper was published in PRL in the same year. Will Huaxia's next Nobel Prize winner be born?"

The exaggerated news headlines one after another made the netizens boil.

Most netizens don't care about what exactly Xu You's research is about and what its significance is.

But I am very interested in such genius deeds.

"Published a paper at the age of 18? This is too awesome! Ji Da is another genius. I don't know who is more awesome, he or Wei Shen."

"I'm not bragging, the gap between me and Xu You may be even bigger than the gap between monkeys and humans."

"Wow, it's the champion of the previous international physics competition! This time, Huaxia's physics community is really about to produce talents. I hope he can help Huaxia stand on the top of the world's technology as soon as possible, so that the ugly country can no longer get stuck in our necks!"

"The media don't bother Xu You, let him concentrate on scientific research!"

Xu You's roommates also soon learned of the news.

"Say, what are you doing behind our backs!"

Guo Haochen, Liu Rui, and Zhao Xiaohui locked the door of dormitory 208 and surrounded Xu You together.

"What am I doing behind your back?"

Xu You doesn't have the habit of eating melons online, and he doesn't know how many people are discussing himself on the Internet.

"Come on, see for yourself."

Liu Rui found the hot search content and handed the phone to Xu You.

After taking the phone, Xu You finally understood why the roommates were so excited.

"Ah, that's the thing. I did a project with a professor before, submitted a paper, and then published it. Well, that's all."

It has been a few days since the paper was published, and Xu You's excitement has also passed, so he doesn't think it's such a big deal.

And hearing what Xu You said, the roommates finally remembered what Xu You was doing a few days ago.

"I said that in those two days, why was your computer full of English, so you were writing a paper. Xu You, what level is the journal you published, and how many credits can you get by posting an article?"

"It should... be a little bit more."

According to Wang Xiangwu, many professors are unable to publish on PRL.

Xu You felt that this thesis should give him some credits.
