In front of the camera lens, Yang Rui pulled open the international email with a "tearing" sound.

This thing felt very good when it was tearing it for the first time. After tearing it three or four times, I didn’t feel special.

Zhao Lei found it very interesting, waved her hand gently, and signaled to the photographer to give a close-up. She also read out the English text on the bag: "This is an email from the most famous academic magazine in the United States, "Cell", and the paper written by Yang Rui a while ago was published in this magazine."

The photographer raised his thumb to Zhao Lei and signaled that the shooting was completed.

President Liu breathed a sigh of relief, rolled on the ground, ready to get up.

Zhao Lei chuckled and blocked it with her hand, pointing to the camera.

The red light that represents the shooting is still on.

Dean Liu supported his old waist with his hands and looked at Zhao Lei for no reason.

"Wait." Zhao Lei made a mouth shape, then waved her hand, asking the photographer to go a little further and take pictures of the things in the mailbag.

Dean Liu had to support the ground with his hands and leaned back as much as possible. For a moment, he felt soreness in his waist and back pain.

However, for the sake of TV promotion, I can't take care of such things.

Yang Rui saw it, walked forward two steps before releasing it.

Xu Zhengping no longer cares about the camera or Dean Liu. He tried hard to help Yang Rui take out the things in the package, and asked, "Have you sent the paper again?"

“CELL? No.”

"It looks quite thick. Could it be a new issue of the journal given to you by CELL?"

"It's a copy, let's take a look..." Yang Rui identified the name composed of all capital letters.

Xu Zhengping read it faster than him, and his voice increased, saying, "It's the new moon summary of CELL. Is there a new moon summary sent here so quickly?"

"What is always the new moon tour?" Yang Rui was confused, so he had never published such a high-end paper before.

Xu Zhengping had never seen pig run and had eaten pork, and said excitedly: "You know, journals like CELL are all typed one or two months in advance to decide which papers to publish in the next issue and the next issue. Unless there are papers that are valued, the pages of the next issue are actually basically determined."

"I know this, but what does it have to do with the new moon summary?"

"It's a big deal. If CELL determines its layout for the next two or even the next three issues, then in the next few months, wouldn't it be known that the number of citations of each paper in CELL?" Xu Zhengping paused and said: "New Moon Summary is to calculate these citations. For the authors of the papers published in CELL, they will default to sending the new Moon Summary for two years. Of course, you must have the number of citations that month."

"What do you mean is that my paper may have been cited?" Yang Rui's eyes lit up, but he turned his back to the camera and said, "It's too short, how long has it been published. The papers in "CELL" have been written for a year or two."

Xu Zhengping faced the camera and said, "Although many papers have to be written for several years, I don't know how many times it needs to be revised before it is published. Each time I am revised, new citations and references will naturally be added. Otherwise, papers two years ago will use knowledge from two years ago, and news will become old news."

Yang Rui nodded in approval. He had also revised his paper once before it was published. This was the happiest reviewer's opinion except for direct publication. Even so, the minor review was still in chaos. Professor Cai even gave him 600,000 yuan, and he still gave him cash.

Those who need to be judged by oneself may have authors who need to be overhauled, explained, and re-do the experiment. What does it cost to add one or two cited articles to write the paper?

On the contrary, those papers with few references or old references are often evaluated by reviewers. The worst thing is that they do not read the literature well or read the literature well. In the end, the authors who do not see the literature in a corner and then do the experiment. Sometimes, some of the middle conclusions they have worked hard to make have been made by someone. In other words, they could have cited other people's papers, saving a lot of time and energy, but they are thankless to do it again, and they are regarded as fools and idiots. Such papers are asked to modify and add references if they are lucky. If they are lucky, they will be rejected directly.

President Liu was much more excited than Yang Rui when he listened to the two of them. He didn't care about his old waist or the camera next to him. He stomped his feet and said, "What are you discussing? See what's written inside."

"Oh." Yang Rui opened the purely printed summary of the crescent moons, sorted them alphabetically, and soon found his paper.

On the right side of the paper are two numbers, "3" and "11".

"3 is the current citation is 3, and 11 is the citation in the next three periods to 11. There are still a few blanks behind it. It should be the total number of citations of several databases, such as the United States' scientific citation index (SCI), engineering index (EI), etc., which should not be counted yet." Xu Zhengping half-explained half-mouthed, and his tone was quite strange.

Looking at Dean Liu again, he was already breathing without caring about his image.

He was completely unaware of his appearance changes.

Zhao Lei whispered: "May I ask, are the citation numbers 3 and 1, more or less?"

"A paper has been published less than a month ago. There are 3 citations in CELL and 11 citations in the next three issues. Do you think it is more or less?" Xu Zhengping asked recurrence.

Zhao Lei has an excellent image and temperament. When interviewing male partners, she doesn't even need to show off her identity as a TV reporter, so she can go without any disadvantages. At this time, she was asked roughly by Xu Zhengping, but she was a little stunned.

Fortunately, she had the experience of dealing with emergencies, adjusted her mood in a flash, smiled again, pointed to the camera, and said, "Can you introduce it to us audience?"

She doesn't say whether she understands it or not, and she won't have to argue again.

Xu Zhengping glanced at the camera, pondered for a moment, and said, "Citation refers to the knowledge involved in a paper, which is original by a reference. The author lists the references he references in the references after the paper. One citation means that there is a paper that uses the knowledge in Yang Rui's paper, or in other words, a citation proves that Yang Rui helped a scholar solve a problem."

"So, the three quotes mean that Yang Rui helped three scholars solve the problem?" Zhao Lei began to take the stance of an interview.

"Of course there are more than three people." Xu Zhengping said: "These three citations refer specifically to CELL citations, and specifically to the citations in the next issue. That is to say, there are three authors who are about to publish a paper in "CELL" who used Yang Rui's paper, and it was in just one month. In the next three issues, the number of citations will be expanded to 11 or even more. Alas... In short, this situation is rare, proving that Yang Rui's paper has extraordinary potential..."

"It means that in the next time, Yang Rui's total number of citations will rise significantly." Dean Liu straightened his chest and sucked his abdomen, feeling like a wealthy housekeeper.

"Can we make an image comparison? How many citations can the average college student have in the paper?"

"Average college student?" Xu Zhengping laughed, and Dean Liu next to him couldn't help but smile.

Zhao Lei is actually a good person. She studied at Columbia University. Although she wrote a graduation thesis, she finally published it and had some understanding of all aspects.

Yang Rui's performance has long been out of the scope of ordinary college students. In fact, there are not many graduate students in China who can publish papers in SCI journals. CELL is more like a fantasy. If not, why should I report it with a camera?

Zhao Lei was also anxious for a moment and said stupid words, but was blushed by Xu Zhengping and Dean Liu.

She took a deep breath, calmed down after finally, and continued to interview: "As far as I know, ordinary papers often have only single digits of citations, is that true?"

TV viewers don’t know what level of citations are, so they have to give them a reference for comparison.

"It would be nice to have three or four citations for an ordinary paper. What I mean is to be a normal researcher, not an ordinary student, and it is normal for a student's paper to have no citations." Xu Zhengping stood in front of Yang Rui and helped him block the danger and the limelight.

If it were other young people, they might be unhappy now, but Yang Rui didn't want to show off and stood silently behind without any anxiety.

Zhao Lei nodded and said, "So, Yang Rui's 3 quotes..."

"It's 3 cell references."

"Yes, the three CELL citations are beyond the level of ordinary researchers?"

"It cannot be compared. I say that ordinary researchers have three or four citations, which are the citations accumulated over several years, decades or even decades. According to this standard, Yang Rui's current citation number should be 11, and it is growing rapidly. Think about it, there will be such data in a month. What will happen in a few years and decades in the future?" Xu Zhengping said this, and he thought so.

Zhao Lei asked a few more questions and interviewed Yang Rui again. Seeing that he had no intention of talking, he stopped shooting.

Nowadays, camera tapes are not cheap, so it is a little bit more to save.

Yang Rui himself was actually shocked.

Zhao Lei asked questions from the perspective of an ordinary person, and naturally the question was false and simple, but Yang Rui himself knew that so many quotes represented in a month.

This is definitely a rhythm of being popular!

The impact factor of CELL is above 30 years, which means that the average number of citations in the past two years has been above 30.

Although I was sure that my paper was above the average, in the first month, the number of citations of CELL alone reached 11, which was completely beyond Yang Rui's expectations.

You should know that the peak of citation after a paper is published is often 3 months or even half a year later, or one month. It can be said that most of the papers citing it have not been written yet.

This is also the benefit of Yang Rui's papers with the potassium channel two years in advance. Two years in advance means that he has to solve more problems. Some citations of similar projects that were originally underway must be put to Yang Rui's papers, and those project teams may face dissolution or major changes.

"It's so magnificent." Xu Zhengping stood behind, holding the "Cremnition of the New Moon" in pure English, as if he was sighing and commenting.
