Chapter 147 "Piaomiao Peak Journal"

The first issue of Piaomiao Peak's journal was sold out on the first day!

The journal was sold out in an instant. The monks who were still watching regretted their decision instantly. They ran through all the educational supermarkets of Qingji Sect, but saw only empty newspaper racks. Even if I wrote to Piaomiao Peak, the only response I received was "the journal has been sold out."

...Is it so difficult to print a few more copies? How could anyone not want to make money!

Also, why are there so many rich people in the world!

Someone tried to find the monk who had the journal to borrow. However, they soon discovered another layer of settings that Ning Mingmei had set up in the journal - anti-theft.

The distribution of Piaomiaofeng Journal is divided into two channels. One is to order in units of ten years, with a one-time payment at the time of ordering - this method is expensive and is a moment reserved exclusively for the elders. The other type is issued by education supermarkets. However, these two methods have one thing in common.

Real-name ordering is required.

Monks need to enter their identity information when purchasing journals. Afterwards, this journal will become a journal that only this monk can read in its entirety by continuously inputting spiritual power. Other monks cannot see the contents.

If you just can't see the content at all, then forget it.

...but they can still see the abstracts of all the articles in the journal. It's just that the full content is collapsed.

"The development and inheritance of Canglan swordsmanship", "Improvement of a cutting method of Guanghan Laurel", "The distribution and prediction of golden spiritual roots among the newborns in Guangdong and Guangxi"... Such attractive abstracts, but all they can see is the abstract!

Do you know that Kaven will be punished by God?

Piaomiaofeng Journal is published quarterly. If you want to get the next issue of the journal, you have to wait three months. The monks of Qingji Sect scratched their heads, and then they found that a new official account had quietly come online on Feisi Book.

@Piaomiaofeng Journal V, the introduction is the official website link.

...Does this Piaomiaofeng Journal have an official homepage?

Some careful disciples discovered something very important on the official homepage.

Call for papers and submission requirements.

It's full of format and content requirements. A sample essay is also provided for reference.

Ordinary people watch the excitement, while smart people watch the details. There are even smarter people who found a mysterious link in a corner of the official homepage.

Then he clicked on the homepage of Piaomiao Peak's "Laboratory".

What’s going on? This feeling of anxiety that’s taking over my whole body… It seems like I can no longer lie in bed and brush the Fei Si Book easily.

As the number of academic journals increases every quarter, the length of the personal profiles of the disciples on the homepage of Piaomiao Peak Laboratory is also increasing day by day - as for the personal profile of the laboratory's boss (peak master) Ning Mingmei, there is no need to read it.

His papers and monographs gradually grew to a huge length. He is the first author or co-author of all the students' papers.

It is not known whether it was a coincidence or Ning Mingmei's calculation, but the first month after the publication of the first issue of Piaomiao Peak's journal coincided with the internal fighting within the Qingji Sect's outer sect. Several disciples who were not usually outstanding showed their skills in the fight, attracting everyone's attention. Some indignant people even found them and falsely accused them of having learned some evil magic from outside.

This matter developed into a public case, and ended with the disciples taking out the study reports they had purchased. One of the disciples who used the Canglan sword technique said, "This is called a replication experiment! Replicating an experiment cannot be called plagiarism... Can academics' work be called plagiarism?"

Nowadays, the disciples of Piaomiao Peak have not yet learned how to draw experimental drawings based on Photoshop, so the experimental results given are extremely credible and reproducible. The disciples were shocked.

In just one month, it’s so amazing?

In the second month, more disciples were commended in the Spiritual Herb Garden. Facing the disciples' questions, she blushed and said, "This is all thanks to Senior Brother Gui Taoran..."

"paper."

In the third month, a disciple returned from the demon world. He said: "I didn't have any problems with the climate in the demon world and was warmly received, all thanks to Senior Brother Bai's paper!"

...This thing is so useful?

So in the fourth month, the second issue of "Piaomiaofeng Journal" was released and was sold out in an instant.

There has never been a shortage of practitioners in the world; what is lacking is the methods of practicing. "Piao Miao Feng Journal" is the method for these disciples. It allows knowledge that was shelved in aristocratic families to be brought to the public in another way.

Since the product is useful, it is reasonable to be more expensive. The third and fourth issues of "Piao Miao Feng Journal"... gradually became a special fashion item of the Qingji Sect. The one who promoted it most actively was the peak master Jiang Ying. Her photos with the journal can often be seen in the Feisi book.

Some disciples also sighed in despair. "Piao Miao Feng Journal" is so expensive, not everyone can afford it.

There is indeed a line in the "Piao Miao Feng Journal" that states: Accept and review submissions from all Qing Ji Zong teachers and students. But no one thought to give it a try. The people who appear in the "Piao Miao Peak Journal" are always the disciples of Piao Miao Peak.

until……

A disciple from Qizhen Peak, who was known for his poverty, actually published a paper in the "Piaomiao Peak Journal".

! !

While everyone was shocked at the female cultivator's silence, they were also curious about one thing.

Who paid for the publication fee of several thousand spirit stones?

"I reimbursed my students for the expenses," Zhang Zhizhen said in an interview with a reporter from Qingji Daily. "As a teacher, I should support my students' dreams."

——I forgot to mention that the editor-in-chief of Qingji Daily is Jiang Ying, and the shadow behind it is Ning Mingmei. Jiang Ying finally found a good way to divide the cake with Ning Mingmei.

Zhang Zhizhen was named the "Extremely Touching" Person of the Year because he reimbursed his disciple's publishing fees. Ning Mingmei led Bai Ruoru and others to convene a meeting of elders of the Qingji Sect. At the conference, Ning Mingmei emphasized that in order to encourage the disciples' enthusiasm for practice, all elders and peak masters should reimburse their disciples for the publication fees to encourage their academic spirit.

Some people happily agreed - such as Zheng He, the head of Guanghe Gongshan Hall. They have a lot of money and don't care about the tiny bit of publishing fee. In comparison, the most important thing is to gain a reputation in Qingji Sect, serve as the corresponding author or first author of disciples' papers, and earn a name for yourself.

Some people agreed with difficulty - such as the head of Sikong Hall. They are relatively poor, and this is also an expense for them.

Ning Mingmei then thoughtfully offered a solution - look for external fund investment or cooperation, or, apply to the sect for research funding support - apply once a year, make a bunch of reports and slides, and the kind that won't last a whole year at a time.

To this end, Ning Mingmei took the lead in establishing the Qingji Sect Academic Committee, which was responsible for the approval of academic funds. In order to avoid suspicion, Ning Mingmei recommended Yin Xisheng as chairman of the academic committee.

Yin Xisheng was very moved. He knew that he was just Qi Miancheng's agent, but Ning Mingmei found a new way for him to gain power. He felt more and more that Ning Mingmei was a good partner for him.

In fact, Ning Mingmei’s idea was very simple—as the president, how could he ask for money without any scruples?

The establishment of the Academic Committee enabled Ning Mingmei to achieve a win-win situation. First, other elders applied for funds from the academic committee, and used the bulk of the funds to help Ning Mingmei create value and pay for publication fees. So Ning Mingmei not only harvested the spirit stones, but also harvested the washed spirit stones. This was the result of Ning Mingmei's careful consideration.

After all, one cannot take money directly from the Qingji Sect's treasury; one has to pass it through their hands and wash it clean before turning it into an academic fund.

Secondly, Ning Mingmei can also apply for money from the Qingji Sect’s treasury to build his own academic fund. Ning Mingmei applied for the publication fees and then gave them to his own journal. What a clean transfer of money from one hand to the other.

In this way, everyone is happy. Now that we have reached a consensus on the issue, everything will be easy. As long as the top leaders, such as Ning Mingmei and Yin Xisheng, believe that the number of papers is an indicator of whether a person is outstanding. The leaders will follow suit, and the hall masters and even the deacons will also think this way and look for disciples who can work for them and write articles for them.

Then another disciple said sourly: "Fame can't be eaten."

But he soon discovered that it could really be eaten as a meal.

For example, Zhang Zhizhen’s disciples.

The paper brought her more than just a free issue of the journal. Soon, other disciples working in similar fields discovered that as long as they quoted part of Zhang Zhizhen's paper, they had to pay a small citation fee to her.

The citation fee will be passed through the "Piao Miao Peak Journal" and then transferred to the female cultivator.

Although this small citation fee is not much, the female practitioner's paper is so basic - so basic that it is difficult not to cite her work as long as it is in this direction. When the sums are accumulated one by one, it turns out to be a considerable number.

The disciples were excited.

The sooner this paper is published, the better!

Publish early, gain a foundation in a research field, and then you can get more citations!

But soon, they were shocked to find that the "Piaomiaofeng Journal" had brought about much more than that.
