Chapter 1432: Chapter 693 Closed-door Re
What’s the difference between species when it comes to scientific discoveries? Especially one related to paleontology, significant for the study of ancient life—how could this not be considered a major discovery?
And the most surprising thing was that this new species wasn’t discovered by some internationally renowned team or famous institute but by a grassroots individual, barely an amateur in the academic world.
A genius, that was it! A genius!
Sharp scientific observational skills, astounding scientific intuition, a genius-like understanding... Such praises were not at all excessive for someone who had made such a significant discovery.
Moreover, to find them in such a young, astonishingly youthful high school student.
Hearing Professor Qi’s final conclusion, Liu JinXue and Yang Hongqi fell silent; Yang was somewhat bewildered, but the admiration in Liu JinXue’s eyes as he looked at Yan Fei was akin to seeing someone smeared completely with... incredibly lucky dog poop.
It was just like taking a spouse for a casual stroll, grabbing a couple of Little Insects, amusingly observing them for a month, and writing an article that might soon become famous in academic circles—such a scenario was something many researchers could only dream of!
Yan Fei grinned ear to ear, then his face turned melancholic. "Then I’ll just publish this article. Right, it has to be submitted to some very famous magazines, right? Britain’s ’Nature’? Germany’s ’Paleontology Research’? Where should I submit it?"
Watching his dilemma, Liu JinXue really wanted to run out, gather a bunch of cow dung, and slap it on his face!
Professor Qi said cheerfully, "No matter which magazine it is, sending your article might be considered fanciful. Besides the paper, you should also send photos, and it would be best to make the data more detailed. If it catches people’s attention, they might not only conduct further research but also come to see your specimens. Did you think your article would become famous worldwide immediately after sending it?"
Yan Fei laughed and said, "Never mind, I’ll just send it out first. Whatever mail is expensive, I’ll send it to several; maybe one will believe..."
"Forget it!" Professor Qi waved his hand. "Anyway, I’m free now, so let me handle this for you! Besides, with the internet available nowadays, you’re always online; the paper doesn’t necessarily have to be in print, right?"
Yan Fei, not expecting Professor Qi to start discussing such ’advanced’ technology like the internet, hesitated for a moment. "Isn’t that inappropriate?"
"What’s inappropriate about it?" Professor Qi smiled and waved his hand. "I’ll check with someone first, you think I’d recommend the paper just like that? Don’t worry about it, just wait for the news. Don’t worry, what’s yours can’t be taken away by anyone."
The other two continued to envy him, but Yan Fei was deeply moved—he was just a local expert dubbed by villagers, truly grassroots. Professor Qi willing to stand up for him and make contacts, he was indeed moved.
If his actions were truly reckless, capturing just two random Little Insects, and Professor Qi went to such lengths, a single phone call could turn it into a big joke, risking the elderly man’s reputation!
Fortunately, Yan Fei was very confident, so he quickly put this issue aside and started planning how to spend the upcoming May Day holiday with his wife.
After handling such a big matter, it’d be a disservice to himself not to go out and enjoy!
