Chapter 796: Celebration

One week after sending out the revised paper, on the morning of May 2, Qiao An received another letter from the editorial department of the "Ofa Review".

As predicted by Professor Moriarty, this letter informed Joan that his paper had passed the review, and if nothing unexpected happened, it would be published in the latest issue of Offa Review.

This good news made Qiao An's long-suspended heart finally drop to the ground, and he couldn't help pumping his fist excitedly.

After the incident, Qiao An's mentality also calmed down. Looking back at her debut work, in all fairness, it was indeed a bit naive, and the level was not satisfactory.

The academic points awarded to him by the editorial department and reviewers for this paper are only 20 points after a comprehensive calculation.

20 points, what level is it?

It is just enough to publish core journals.

It has to be said that Qiao An's paper was full of calculations and passed the test after only two revisions. There is a certain element of luck.

Although Joan himself was reluctant to admit it, he knew in his heart that it was probably because of his age and schooling experience that he won a lot of sympathy points from the reviewers.

A poor orphan who was born in the southern countryside, he pursued his studies with determination, suffered a lot of ups and downs, and finally got admitted to the highest university in the New World as he wished.

Needless to say, this is a delightful, dramatic and inspirational story.

It’s easy to be moved by inspirational stories, and editors and reviewers are no exception.

Joan was only fourteen years old when he studied at the Advanced Law Research Institute of Midgard University. In the first semester of entering the school, he set up a project on his own and completed a thesis independently as a correspondent and author. Although the quality of the thesis itself can only be said Quite well-behaved, unsatisfactory, but also showing some brilliance of genius.

The ecology of the Austrian law academic circle is a bit strange to say.

Scholars mixed in this circle have different tempers, eccentric, mean, neurotic, insane, and even Professor Moriarty's reckless behavior and contempt for morality and ethics are all normal phenomena and are not worth making a fuss about.

But on the other hand, this circle is also the most inclusive of new people and new ideas, and it doesn't pay much attention to ranking seniority or family background.

If you want to win the respect of your peers in this circle, you must either have excellent strength or the potential of genius.

Joan belongs to the latter case.

If not, the editor-in-chief of the journal would not be bothered to write a letter by himself, so that he was almost autistic, and even went to find his supervisor to scold him face to face. The three reviewers would not just let him go so easily. Raise your hand high and let him pass.

In this letter written again by Mr. Tennyson himself, he also revealed a little secret to Joan.

Since the establishment of the Austrian Law School of Midgard University, it has been a precedent for a first-year paper published in a core journal as a freshman in the graduate school, but there are only a few hundred people.

Among these young talents, there are only a handful of those whose first paper is the corresponding author.

Among all these precedents, Joan's thesis level is certainly not outstanding, but he is the youngest, and his qualifications for formal arcane education are also the shallowest. The time spent studying at Leiden College and Midgard University is less than one year.

Joan's thesis does not reflect academic educational achievements, but an excellent example of "self-taught".

what does that mean?

Mr. Tennyson did not say so, but the implication is self-evident.

That's right, this is the so-called "genius"!

The successful publication of "A Brief Analysis of Arachnoid Creatures in the Dark Area" not only won Joan 20 academic points, but also set a small record.

Joan will become the youngest corresponding author of a core journal in the history of the School of Law of Midgard University.

In the academic field of arcane law, it is very difficult to leave one's own record, and even most of the academic leaders who have achieved fame cannot do it.

Despite some setbacks, Qiao An successfully crossed the threshold of entering the academic circle, and his first appearance was very exciting, creating his own record, firmly wearing the aura of genius.

In the days to come, unless he committed suicide, it would not be difficult to gain a firm foothold and a place in the arcane academic circle.

Of course, the aura of genius is both a blessing and a curse.

Most of the high-spirited young geniuses are unaware of a cruel fact: the generous gift given to them by fate has already secretly marked the price.

The prosperity in the first twenty years of life is often compensated by the disappointment in the second half of life.

There were not no young geniuses who were more dazzling and blockbuster than Joan, but unfortunately most of them failed to break through the curse, and the highest achievement in their lives was the thesis that earned them the title of genius.

As the years get older, the halo of genius gradually fades, but they are unable to produce higher-level results. The reputation they enjoyed when they were young has now become irony. Few people can bear such a psychological gap.

Joan's state of mind is very peaceful now.

Neither is it swollen to the point of complacency, believing that its academic future is bright, but it is not so burdened by fame that it worries that it will not be able to produce higher-level results in the future.

He was simply relieved that the energy he had devoted to writing and revising the thesis over the past month or so was finally not in vain.

20 academic points is not too much, but the graduation standard for Austrian law graduate students only requires 40 academic points.

Now that I have obtained 20 academic points, the graduation pressure has been reduced by half.

The latest issue of "Ofa Review" will be officially released in mid-May as usual. At that time, Qiao An will receive a sample issue from the editorial department to see how her article looks like in printed matter, and she can also print the sample Give away to friends and relatives.

But Joan felt that he probably didn't have such a thick skin.

Not to mention giving away sample journals, Qiao An was even ashamed to announce that the paper had been drafted.

After all, there is still half a month before the publication of the journal. What if something unexpected happens and your paper is withdrawn?

There is probably a precedent for such a small probability event, right?

Thinking of this, Qiao An decided to hide the letter from the editorial department and not show it to anyone.

If someone asks him about the status of the manuscript review, just pretend to be confused and explain clearly.

Blow out the cowhide now, in case something happens in the future and you can't get down, how embarrassing it is!

Concerned about gains and losses, Joan walked towards Moriarty's laboratory.

As soon as the door was opened, there was a muffled sound of "ping" in my ears!

Joan was immediately alert, turned his head in time, and narrowly avoided the oncoming oak cork.

Just when he was still in shock, all the lights in the laboratory were turned on.

In the brightly lit hall, Professor Moriarty was holding a bottle of fizzy sparkling wine in his hand, and walked towards him with a smile.

Duo'er followed the professor with a smile on her face, applauding as she walked, as if welcoming Joan back.

"Mentor, Duo'er... what are you doing?" Joan asked hesitantly.

"Of course it's a celebration."

Professor Moriarty beckoned to Dole and told her to fetch the glass.

"Is there any happy event to celebrate?" Joan asked.

"It's your happy event. Isn't it worth celebrating to publish a paper in a core journal for the first time?"

Professor Moriarty poured amber champagne into two goblets, picked up one for himself, and handed the other to Joan.

"That's right..." Joan took the champagne and scratched her head embarrassingly, "I just received a notice from the editorial department, and I haven't had time to report to you yet."

In fact, he didn't intend to report at all.

As the corresponding author, it stands to reason that the editorial department would only contact him, but Professor Moriarty got the news from where, and he was more informed than the author himself, so he prepared champagne for him in advance.

Professor Moriarty clinked glasses with his students, sipped champagne and smiled.

"Joan, congratulations, you have successfully taken the first step towards the arcane academic circle."

Joan quickly thanked her and said gratefully, "This is all inseparable from your mentor, your guidance."

"Come on! Come on! There's no need for polite words."

Professor Moriarty drank the champagne in one gulp, put down the empty glass casually, and smiled excitedly.

"It's rare to be so happy today, let's have some fun and celebrate!"

Looking for fun again? !

Qiao An suddenly felt dark!

"Teacher, just looking for fun or something, forget it, I really don't have that interest..."

"It's different this time, I'll take you to play something exciting, if you like it!"

Mr. Professor patted his chest to make sure.

Want to play something "exciting"? !

Joan is so flustered!

It's the last day of September, I wish you all a happy National Day in advance
