Chapter 72 Chapter 72 Exclusive
As soon as Lin Yimu answered the call, Professor Wan's happy voice came from the phone.
"Student Lin Yimu, I heard that your paper has passed the first trial and entered the peer review stage. Are you ready to deal with the peer reviewers?"
When Lin Yimu heard Professor Wan's words, he felt a little unsure. After all, he had no experience in this area and didn't know what to prepare. So he asked with some doubt: "Professor, what preparations do I need to make when facing peer reviewers? I don't have any experience in this area, and I still need your guidance."
Professor Wan guessed that Lin Yi Mu would do this, so he called Lin Yi Mu as soon as he knew the news. When he heard Lin Yi Mu's question, he was not surprised at all, but slowly explained to him what peer reviewers would do.
"Peer reviewers are all professional scholars in various fields. After reading your paper, they will definitely ask you questions about it. You have to prepare yourself now. Especially for someone like you who has never published a paper, the reviewers will be more strict in their review to prove whether the paper is yours."
Professor Wan paused for a moment, worried that Lin Yimu would be too nervous, and said to comfort him, "But you don't have to worry too much. Although the reviewers will be very strict, as long as you are fully prepared and don't make mistakes when answering their questions, there will generally be no problems."
Lin Yi Mu listened carefully to Professor Wan's instructions on the phone, responded from time to time, and had a smile on his face when he hung up the phone.
"What's wrong? Judging from your expression, is there some good news?" Huang Minglei, who was sitting on the bed opposite and reading a book silently, asked when he heard Lin Yimu stop talking on the phone.
Lin Yimu put down his phone and shook his head, then explained, "No, it's not that. The person who called was Professor Wan from Yan University. He also heard that my paper has entered the peer review stage, so he called to remind me to be prepared to deal with the reviewers."
Huang Minglei glanced at him with some resentment, which gave Lin Yimu goosebumps all over his body. Then he said, "Being good at studying is popular. Even university professors can be won over by you, and they specially called to care about you."
He sighed and shook his head and continued, "But if I were a teacher, I would probably like an excellent student like you. It would be a great honor for me to tell anyone about it. By the way, since Professor Wan knows about this, he should also know your competition results, right? Didn't he let you study at Yan University?" Huang Minglei asked doubtfully.
When Lin Yimu heard this, he sighed helplessly and said, "Of course I did ask, but I have already explained it to Professor Wan, and Professor Wan also thinks that Peking University is a good choice for me." Then he threw his phone to the bedside and lay down on the bed in a deflated manner, "Today is too tiring."
Huang Minglei glanced at Lin Yimu on the bed with amusement, put down the book in his hand, and lay down on the bed easily, saying: "That's true, my phone has not been quiet since the award ceremony, and now that I have decided on the school I want to attend, it is finally quiet."
The two of them lay in bed for a while, then went out to wash up together. In order to prevent someone from calling in the middle of the night to disturb their sleep, they both muted their phones before they could sleep peacefully.
However, when Lin Yimu and his companions were sleeping peacefully, the Internet was already in an uproar over the competition results released by the media.
…
Early the next morning, Lin Yimu and his group took a taxi to the airport. While waiting for the plane in the airport terminal, Lin Yimu was so bored that he decided to check his mobile mailbox to see if he had received any emails from the reviewers.
However, he had just turned on his phone and had not had time to open his email when he found that the Weibo icon on his phone page showed that there were 99+ unread messages.
Lin Yimu clicked it in confusion, still wondering in his heart, he hasn’t done anything recently, why are there so many unread messages?
When Lin Yimu opened Weibo with full of doubts, the doubts on his face disappeared after seeing the messages and comments from everyone.
It turned out that the results of yesterday's competition were out. The reporter from the TV station posted the filming process online and attached a press release with the title "Gao Lin Yimu from Yancheng won the first place."
It was because of this title and the content of the video that a lot of people on the Internet were talking about Lin Yimu. Some said that Lin Yimu was an outstanding talent and expressed great envy, while some people still insisted on their own opinions and thought that Lin Yimu's grades were fake. People on both sides started arguing under the press release.
It was also because of the quarrel between the two sides that it attracted the attention of a large number of netizens, and also caused some passers-by who were not paying attention to the competition to click in, thus causing more discussion and controversy.
Passersby felt that since it was a national competition, the results must be fair, but some people insisted that there was something fishy going on in the competition because the argument between the two sides was getting more and more intense.
Because the controversy was so great, some fans who had liked Lin Yi Mu before went directly to Lin Yi Mu's Weibo to inquire without getting any confirmation. Some fans also directly tagged him in the Weibo comment section to congratulate him.
There were more comments in the section from netizens who had previously mentioned that they would call Lin Yimu "dad" as long as he could make it into the national training team. Many netizens were calling on him to come out and call him "dad".
However, the account, which was very active before, was now silent, causing many netizens to start mocking it.
After Lin Yimu learned about what happened online, he felt that it was not a big deal. He closed Weibo and opened his email without taking it seriously.
After Lin Yimu checked his email, he found that there was no message yet. He could only sigh in disappointment and put the phone back into his pocket.
After everyone boarded the plane, Huang Minglei asked, "Just now in the terminal, I saw you looking down at your phone. Is there any news from the review department?"
"There's no news from the reviewers, but I saw the video of yesterday's award ceremony and the media's announcement online."
Huang Minglei looked at him in surprise, "You actually read this kind of report?"
Lin Yimu glanced at him helplessly and said, "I didn't go there on purpose. It was because this matter was making a lot of noise on the Internet that my Weibo account was flooded with comments, so I clicked on it to see it."
"Tsk tsk tsk, it's just as expected! Wherever you are, there is blood and gore!" Huang Minglei looked at Lin Yimu and shook his head and sighed.
Lin Yi Mu glanced at him and didn't say anything else. It was not until he got off the plane, said goodbye to everyone and returned home that Lin Yi Mu was stopped by his parents and asked about the results of the competition.
"Xiao Mu, how was your result in the competition? It should be pretty good, right? Your dad and I received several calls from universities yesterday afternoon. They all want you to study at their schools, and the conditions they proposed are better than the last. If I hadn't been unable to contact you yesterday and asked your dad to call your team leader, we would have asked for leave to go to Beijing."
After Jiang Wanqiu pulled Lin Yimu to sit on the sofa in the living room, she immediately began to care about the situation.
Lin Bohan, who walked in behind to help carry the luggage, put down his luggage and closed the door, saying, "Don't rush to ask questions. The child just came back. Let him rest for a while and eat something. There is no rush."
Lin Yimu looked at his parents' concerned expressions and said with a smile, "It's okay, Dad. We didn't take a long flight, so we're not tired."
After saying that, he turned to look at his mother who was sitting next to him and asked hesitantly, "Mom, you didn't sign me up for school, did you?"
"Don't worry. No matter how much your parents are attracted by the conditions they propose, they still have to consider your own wishes. Since you ask this, have you already chosen a school?" Jiang Wanqiu asked with a smile.
Lin Yimu nodded and said, "Mom, I have chosen Peking University. I signed a contract with Peking University yesterday afternoon and will study at Peking University Yuanpei College."
As soon as Lin Yimu finished speaking, Jiang Wanqiu and Lin Bohan looked at her in surprise. Finally, Lin Bohan asked, "Wait, wait! Peking University Yuanpei Academy? What place did you get in the competition?"
"First place, gold medal."
Lin Bohan and the other man looked even more surprised when they heard this. Although they knew that their son's academic performance had improved a lot recently, they were still somewhat surprised and unbelievable when they suddenly heard him say that he had won a gold medal in the competition.
After finally suppressing her surprise, Jiang Wanqiu was filled with joy. She immediately asked happily about the benefits of studying at Peking University and how to enter Yuanpei College.
You should know that it is very difficult to get into Yuanpei College of Peking University. Among the many students who are admitted to Peking University with high scores every year, only a few can enter Yuanpei College. Every student of Peking University is proud to be admitted to Yuanpei College.
Many students also work towards the goal of studying at Yuanpei College after studying at Peking University. You should know that students who study at Yuanpei College generally achieve great success after graduation.
Lin Yimu answered his parents' questions one by one. During this time, it was already twelve o'clock in the afternoon. Jiang Wanqiu immediately went to prepare lunch happily.
After lunch, Lin Yimu did not rest at home, but made an appointment with Huang Minglei to go back to school for classes in the afternoon.
The two met at the school gate. When they arrived at the classroom, it was already full of people. When they saw Lin Yimu and Huang Minglei walk into the classroom, everyone looked surprised.
After a while, just as the two of them sat down and had no time to take out their books, Mo Shanshan and Ye Yuankai surrounded them.
"The two college geniuses in our class are finally back. How were your results in the competition? Did you kill everyone?" Ye Yuankai came up and started asking with a gossipy look on his face.
Mo Shanshan, who was standing nearby, also looked at the two of them with curiosity. Even those who were studying in the class pricked up their ears curiously to find out what was going on.
Lin Yimu took out the books he was going to use for class, looked at the two people with curious faces and said, "There is no such thing as a big kill. This is a national competition. There shouldn't be too many outstanding people."
As soon as Lin Yimu finished speaking, Huang Minglei, who was sitting next to him, laughed and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense. He was a killer in the competition. Among so many outstanding people in the country, he was able to get a full score and win the gold medal. He is simply not a human being!"
"Oh my god! You're such a freak! You even got full marks and won the gold medal in the national competition. The people taking the exam with you must have been under a lot of pressure, right?" Ye Yuankai exclaimed in disbelief.
Even Mo Shanshan was shocked, and then she said with envy: "That's great, with your performance, you two will definitely be able to enter the national training team, right? Does anyone know when the training will start?"
Lin Yimu and Huang Minglei looked at each other, and it was not easy to say anything in front of the whole class. They just nodded in affirmation, and then Lin Yimu said: "We don't know when the training will start. We have to wait for notification."
A few words between the three of them also let other people in the class know the competition results of Lin Yimu and the other person. In fact, everyone was like Mo Shanshan, very envious but also felt a little pressured.
After all, I am in the same class with such an outstanding person. I am crushed by him in every exam. Now he has won good results in the national competition. I can't avoid being compared with him in class, and even my parents will mention it when I go home.
However, the three of them did not chat for long. When the bell rang, the teacher walked into the classroom with the lesson plan. Seeing Lin Yimu and Huang Minglei sitting in their seats, he asked a few questions.
Finally, he reminded her, "The midterm exam will be in a few days. Don't neglect other subjects because of the competition."
"I understand, teacher."
After the first class, the head teacher called them to the office during the break.
