Great Country Academician

Chapter 15 The Golden Autumn Camp and the Physics National Competition

"Small matter, put the paper here with me first, and I'll call you after it's corrected."

Xu Cheng smiled and put on his glasses again.

"By the way, which journal are you planning to submit this paper to?"

"Vote for Advances in Physics."

"The other paper was pointed out by you, teacher, please sign it and add your name."

Xu Chuan pondered for a while and said, he is really not very familiar with domestic journals, writing papers in his previous life was already a thing after he went to college.

However, as Xu Cheng said, domestic journals are mixed, and even the top journals have the same impact factor. Although the importance of this paper is not very high, it is also his hard work.

Therefore, if you can submit to top foreign journals, you should submit to foreign journals first.

As for the signature plus Xu Cheng's name, this can be regarded as an unspoken rule in the academic industry.

And for newcomers or students, if the teacher is famous, signing the teacher's name can enjoy certain preferential treatment in the review of the manuscript of the newcomer.

At least it will give the technical editor and review editor a second look instead of throwing it directly in the trash.

Hearing this, Xu Cheng looked at Xu Chuan in surprise, shook his head and refused with a smile.

"No, this paper was written by you yourself. I'm glad you have such consideration, but teaching is my job, and you are not my student."

Xu Cheng rejected Xu Chuan's kindness. A paper, even the SCI of "Progress in Physics", is not a very rare thing for him.

But for Xu Chuan, an independently published paper is extremely precious.

Being able to independently publish a paper in the third year of high school will be of great help to his future academic career, and he cannot take advantage of this advantage.

What's more, he didn't help much with this paper, not even academic discussion, at most he helped to revise the paper format.

In addition, the relationship between the two of them was not even a teacher-student relationship. Under such circumstances, Xu Cheng didn't have the cheek to add his own name.

"How can this be done without your help, teacher"

Xu Cheng waved his hand and interrupted Xu Chuan's words again: "I say yes, you can go back to the training camp first, this year's IPHO, your winning the gold medal is the best reward for me."

After the paper is submitted, all that remains is to wait for the feedback from the journal.

Although "Progress in Physics" is not the top journal, it can also be ranked among the top 15 journals in the world.

The review time of such journals will be long enough for ordinary scholars or newcomers like Xu Chuan to submit papers for the first time, which makes people doubt life.

Not everyone is so lucky. When your paper is sent, there is a technical review editor who can see your paper.

Although the rules vary from journal to journal, most do not send feedback until manuscripts are accepted, which can take anywhere from a day to two weeks.

This time is generally determined according to the reputation of the contributor in the industry. The greater the reputation, the shorter the review time.

For a little transparency like Xu Chuan who has never heard of it, if you are lucky, you may receive feedback in a week or so. If you are unlucky, you may have to wait half a month or even a month.

Sometimes it’s not unexpected to be stuck on the review editor card for two or three months when you memorize your ideas.

So after the paper was submitted, Xu Chuan also returned to the days of the training camp, but by this time, the training camp of Wujing was almost over.

After all, the holding time of domestic content competitions and digital competitions is different. Physical competitions are held in October every year, while digital competitions have to wait until December.

This also gives the opportunity to participate in physical and digital competitions at the same time.

Time passed quickly, in the blink of an eye, the time came to the first ten days of October, CPHO was about to start, and students from all provinces participating in the national competition also came to Kyoto.

This year's Wujing National Competition was held at P University, and at the same time, P University's Golden Autumn Camp was also held during this period.

There are actually differences between the national competition, the golden autumn camp, and the winter camp. These three are actually not the same thing.

The national competition is the final of the five national competitions for middle school students in mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, and information, also known as IMO and CPHO.

After the provincial competitions in each province are over, each province will recommend students to participate in the competition. This is generally the top few in the provincial competitions.

The Golden Autumn Camp refers to a series of recruitment and selection activities organized by Shuimu and P University after the National Day 11th, mainly for the three subjects of mathematics, physics and chemistry.

Generally speaking, only contestants who have won the provincial first prize and above can participate in this selection activity.

Mizuki and P Da have their own Golden Autumn Camp, but the source of students they are facing is the same, they are all excellent competition students.

Therefore, the two families have never dealt with each other very much, and they are fiercely fighting for the source of students.

So the Golden Autumn Camp has nothing to do with the national competition.

It is just a means used by Mizuki and P University to lock and recruit students in advance.

As for the winter camp, it is linked to the National Mathematics Competition.

The winter camp was first established in 1985. It was initiated by several famous universities in P University and Beiyang. It was later renamed the Ninth District Mathematical Olympiad.

In other words, the current winter camp is actually the national competition of the National Mathematics Contest for Middle School Students.

The other four-door competitions are not linked to the winter camp, and their national competitions are held independently.

However, as time went by, there were other competitions. For example, the exam time of the Biology National Competition was directly set at the winter camp.

This saves time and energy.

As for this year, the time for P Dajin to hold the National Physics Competition and the Golden Autumn Camp was set together. After discussions with the Physics Society of the Ninth District, the National Physics Competition was held directly in the Golden Autumn Camp of P University.

Otherwise, according to the situation that the Golden Autumn Camp and the Wujing National Competition were held separately in previous years, there is a high probability that Xu Chuan will give up the Golden Autumn Camp this year and only participate in the Wujing National Competition.

One is that he participated in the Golden Autumn Camp of P University last year and won the first prize.

The second is that his university goal is not Mizuki and P University, and it is meaningless for him to participate in the Golden Autumn Camp of these two colleges.

Once reborn, his university choice will still be the Sanjiang University that he studied in his previous life.

Although Sanjiang University's mathematics college is average, not as big as Mizuki and P, but Sanjiang University is his alma mater after all, and there is no reason why he should not go to the university and graduate school he studied in Sanjiang in his previous life.

In addition, there is a more critical point that domestic universities, even Mizuki and P University, can't teach him much knowledge.

Not to mention physics, but mathematics, he himself can teach and lead doctoral students in these two universities, so it doesn't matter which university he goes to.

Those who can teach, the basic mathematics that he has not learned, can also be taught by Sanjiang University, and there are only a few universities in the world that can teach him more advanced mathematics knowledge.
