Western Peninsula Empire.
At Ha Province University.
Liao Guang finished his day's work and was in a good mood as he prepared to leave work.
However, just as he packed his things, his colleague Raymond Ferg walked up to him.
"My dear Liao, I have a thesis here that you will be very interested in.”
Raymond Ferg held the latest issue of Cell in his hand and said with a smile.
"What thesis?"
Liao Guang asked curiously.
"You'll know once you see it."
Raymond Ferg opened Cell and handed it to Liao Guang.
" The application of the transpion-activating factor nuclases in gene editing is a very interesting topic.”
Seeing the title of the thesis, Liao Guang nodded slightly.
Gene editing was also Liao Guang's main research direction.
In fact, Liao Guang was also considering doing a research project related to the receptor nuciases. This paper might be a good reference.
"No, no, no, I'm not talking about the paper itself, but the author of this paper.”
Realizing that Liao Guang was focusing on the wrong thing, Raymond Forgue reminded him.
"Author?"
Liao Guang was startled and looked down.
"Shen Kaiji, Northern Region University, School of Life Sciences, PhD student.”
Was there something wrong with this author?
Liao Guang frowned.
Northern Region University was one of the top universities in Dongming Country. It was normal for a PhD student to publish a thesis on Cell.
"Wait…"
At this moment, Liao Guang suddenly realized that there was another author who was tied for first place behind him.
"Liu Lang…"
Liao Guang's first reaction was that they had the same name.
However, there was a note after Liu Lang's name. He graduated from Dongming Country's Jiangbei Province's Lanshan No.1 Middle School, the highest academic high school.
"How is that possible?"
Liao Guang found it hard to believe.
"Liao, I remember that you told me that when you went to Dongming to visit your family, you made a bet with a high school student from Dongming. If the high school student lost, he would pay you ten million, and if you lost, you would run naked in the central square of Ha Provincial University for half an hour. If I'm not mistaken, the author of this paper is the high school student from Dongming Country who made the bet with you.”
Raymond Forge looked at Liao Guang, gloating.
"This is indeed the high school student who made a bet with me.”
Liao Guang threw the Cell on the table and sneered,"" However, I'm sure that he's not the real author of this paper.”
"But it's written very clearly at the bottom of the thesis.”
Raymond Ferg shrugged.
"It would take at least half a year to complete such a high-quality thesis, and Liu Lang will only be in Northern Region University for half a month at most. Do you think he can be the first author?”
Liao Guang stated the facts and reasoned.
"This is indeed a problem."
Raymond muttered as he held his chin.
He was also in the field of biology, so he knew how much time and effort it took to publish a thesis in Cell.
Half a month, unless God helped him.
"Raymond, you don't understand Dongming. There are many stupid people there. They would rather give up their principles for the sake of their reputation.”
Liao Guang paused and said," I think this PhD student named Shen Kaiji didn't want to see me win, so he added Liu Lang's name to his thesis. In fact, Liu Lang didn't even participate in it."”
"Is that really the case?"
Raymond Forgue was deep in thought.
"This is the only possibility."
Liao Guang clenched his fists and said.
"However, if there are many people like Shen Kaiji who are willing to share their research results with Liu Lang, you will still lose in the end.”
After thinking for a while, Raymond Ferg said.
"It won't happen."
Liao Guang shook his finger." Dongming's biological research is very backward. Last year, there were only seven papers published in Cell. "Our bet is ten chapters. In other words, even if the entire Dongming Country helps Liu Lang, Liu Lang will not win.”
"If that's the case, then it's a pity.”
Raymond Forgue was disappointed.
As the saying goes, it's better to watch the show.
He would rather see Liao Guang run naked in the central square of Ha Provincial University than win ten million.
……
Dongming State.
In the capital.
Northern Region University.
Even though Liu Lang had declined many media interviews and did not speak in Wang Meng's live broadcast, the news of him appearing in the top biology journal Cell as the first author continued to spread.
"Ding! Reputation 1, total Reputation 2356872.”
"Ding! Reputation 1, total Reputation 2356873.”
For the next few days, the supercomputer system kept sending out notifications.
As more and more people believed that the bet between Liu Lang and Liao Guang wasn't just a verbal argument, Liu Lang's total Reputation Points continued to rise.
However, he was still far from upgrading his memory.
Liu Lang decided to block the notification.
Just as Liu Lang thought that the popularity of the thesis would slowly fade with time, an anonymous letter was sent to the Northern Region University Academic Committee.
At the same time, the major media outlets also received the same anonymous report letter.
The report letter recorded in detail the time of the topic, the time of the experiment, and the participants. It also included the time when Liu Lang reported to Northern Region University and the time when he entered the International Key Laboratory of Biology.
In the end, they came to a conclusion. Liu Lang had only helped for a few days, but he was not the first author of the thesis.
