I Have a Research Support System

When Gong Yuanjiang’s students read the literature, they usually distinguish which research group’s work is the work of the corresponding author, but they also read the first and second works of the article. For those who can often appear in the first and second works of the paper, There will be some impressions more or less.

As they usually communicate, it is roughly like this:

Brother, look at Xu Qiu from the Wei Xingsi group posted another high-quality article. The last time it was AM, this time it was NC, and he made a 3D-PDI system. The molecular structure is very similar to ours, and the efficiency is 8 %, damn it, broke the world record of the PDI system.

Is that Xu Qiu who developed PCE11 before?

That's Xu Qiu. I read the corresponding authors, and they are all Wei Xingsi. Some time ago, they also published an ACSEL article, which was a review of non-fullerenes. It seems that they plan to develop in this direction.

Why is this guy so powerful? It's also a 3D-PDI system. Why is the efficiency of my structure only 5%, and I can't do it anyway. Please pass me the NC literature first, and I will refer to it.

Okay, brother sent you an email address.

...It turned out to be like this, fused rings, introducing selenium atoms, we can also try this way, my structure is similar to his, and his experience can be directly applied.

Here is another EES, which is also a 3D-PDI system, and also from Wei Xingsi's group. Xu Qiu is the second author. No, it is the first. Damn, the efficiency is higher, with 9%.

Quick, quick, send me that EES too.

After Xu Qiu and Wei Xingsi were seated, several teachers came one after another in the private room, each with their assistants, small bosses or favorite students.

At 5:56, after everyone arrived, Gong Yuanjiang ordered the waiter to start serving dishes, and then introduced everyone according to their academic status in the field of organic photovoltaics.

The first is Bazan, who was the earliest group of people who studied the field of organic photovoltaics. It seems that an article by Xu Qiu was in his hands before, and he gave very professional revision opinions.

Now Bazan is 60+, but still looks very energetic, with a female assistant and translator next to him, she looks like a Chinese, or a mixed race, young, less than 30 years old, of course It may also be well-maintained and pretty, with black-rimmed glasses, OL outfits, and wavy yellow hair.

Xu Qiu couldn't help but start to imagine the relationship between her and Bazan. Could it be that there is a policy at the top and countermeasures at the bottom in foreign countries. Since the teacher-student relationship is not allowed, then it is fine for me and the assistant.

It's just that the age gap is a bit...

Then there are three Yangtze River scholars, Xu Zhenghong, Zang Chaojun, and Lu Changjun. In fact, there are four Yangtze Rivers in total. Gong Yuanjiang himself is also a Yangtze River.

Xu Zhenghong, aged 55+, looks thinner, wearing a neatly pressed suit, with a serious expression and a serious expression.

He didn't bring any students, but the small boss in the group, a young professor in his 30s, Liang Haoxian.

The IDTBR material developed by Xu Zhenghong's research group and published in Nature Materials was actually written by Liang Haoxian. He was the first author and corresponding author of that paper.

Zang Chaojun and Lu Changjun are professors of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Qingbei University respectively. They are also over 50 years old. Because the two universities and research institutes are next door to Jincheng, it is more convenient to come here, so they came earlier. In the afternoon, Gong Yuanjiang was entertaining the two of them. people.

Each of them brought a male student over.

Next, there were two professors at the Jieqing level, Zheng Xiao from Sichuan University, and Bao Yuanyou from Jinghang University. Zheng Xiao came here by himself, and Bao Yuanyou also brought a male student.

Finally, there is the only Qingqian, Wei Xingsi. For him, the other teachers at the table are big bosses, and their hats are all higher than him.

In particular, Xu Zhenghong is even expected to take a step closer to becoming an academician.

The total number of academicians of the two academies in China is very small, and all walks of life have to be taken care of. The Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering each have about 800 people. Basically, an old man goes up before a newcomer can go up. Most researchers stop at the academician reserve , that is, Yangtze River scholars.

To Xu Qiu, he didn't know anyone at the whole table except Mr. Wei, but he didn't care, he just came here today to enjoy the food of Jincheng.

Not counting the few minutes that the train stopped before, this was the first time he came to Jincheng.

Although the transportation is now developed, no matter which city in the country you are in, you can eat dishes from all major cuisines, but the locality still retains local characteristics. Some special dishes can only be tasted in the place of origin.

Xu Qiu observed an interesting phenomenon. Except for Bazan's assistant, everyone at the table was male. That assistant probably wasn't an orthodox scientific researcher.

In other words, the people at the table who are engaged in scientific research are all men, and there is not a single girl...

In fact, although the ratio of male to female among graduate students is unbalanced, it is not exaggerated to the extent of more than ten to zero, about 2:1.

It's just that the people on this table are all top players, and it is indeed very difficult for women to get ahead in the scientific research circle.

In Mr. Wei's research group, the prosperity of yin and the decline of yang are a special case.

Soon, the waiter began to serve the dishes, opened the wine, and introduced the dishes at the same time, Eight Big Bowls and Four Big Steaks, the names sounded quite loud.

Gong Yuanjiang has prepared red wine, beer and white wine. The red wine is not known what brand it is.

Several other students at the table chose beer, and Xu Qiu followed suit.

The food tasted pretty good, and at halftime, Wei Xingsi winked at Xu Qiu.

Xu Qiu understood, and began to toast to several teachers, which was similar to the New Year's Day group dinner, but this time it was an away game, so there was no need to toast many times in turn, just one toast was fine, and the teachers were also very accommodating.

The academic circle is full of flowers and sedan chairs. Maybe one day the article will be in the hands of other people. It is always useful to form a good relationship and get acquainted.

They may also have their own calculations, especially those with similar research fields, but generally there is no big grudge, and they will not lose face, at most they will not take the initiative to communicate.

At the wine table, several teachers chatted in mixed Chinese and English, analyzing the international situation, or things like project applications, and also talked about specific scientific research content, but relatively few.

After dinner at 7:30, several teachers, led by Gong Yuanjiang, went out to carry out middle-aged activities.

Before leaving, Gong Yuanjiang asked the big brother in his group to take other students to activities.

It was only then that Xu Qiu discovered that the doctoral student who had brought them to the restaurant was actually Cao Si, the big brother in Gong Yuanjiang's group.

Cao Si just graduated from Ph.D. 4 this year, and then decided to stay in Gong Yuanjiang's group at the school for two years after Ph.D. It seems that he was trained as a direct descendant.

Human energy is limited, and the same is true for scientific researchers. After reaching a certain age, it is difficult to carry out scientific research work in the front line. A large research group has finally been established. Someone must take over, so they will look for it in advance. Successors, cultivate small bosses.

Cao Si asked more than a dozen students one by one about their wishes, and some of them claimed to be too drunk to go back to rest, and some had already made appointments in advance.

However, in the end there were more than a dozen people left, because some planned to bring their families.

Xu Qiu didn't want to join in the fun at first, but after thinking about it, he had nothing to do when he went back to the hotel. In addition, Cao Si kindly invited him, so he accepted. He only drank two bottles of beer, which to him was like sprinkling water , There is no effect on thinking and action.

There is also Daxue Street similar to Shanghai University, Cao Si took everyone to a relatively quiet board game shop on Daxue Road, and did not pick a place like a noisy KTV.

On the way, a girl approached and greeted Xu Qiu.
