"No, there should be a way." Jiang Cheng shook his head: "Which journal did you submit this paper to?"
"It was submitted to Science magazine. This magazine is worldwide and has a strong influence in the academic world. Many well-known scientists publish their papers in this magazine. Several of the host's previous papers were published in this magazine, which caused quite a stir and discussion. Of course, there were also controversies." Lucy said immediately.
Lucy was very smart. She immediately thought of a possibility and asked with blinking eyes, "Is the master going to buy this magazine?"
"Yeah." Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "I do have this plan.
Acquired the publisher of "Technology" magazine!
Jiang Cheng's move was crude and crude. The paper was rejected? It means that Jiang Cheng's writing was ridiculous? It is impossible to pass such a paper that violates common sense and is very targeted? Jiang Cheng's solution is to buy the Science and Technology Magazine Publishing House and become the boss of the Science and Technology Magazine Publishing House. By then, who would dare to reject Jiang Cheng's paper
Get out if you dare!
Jiang Cheng did what he said and called Zhang Manlin directly to explain his intention.
"Why do you suddenly want to acquire this magazine? It will cost a lot of money! This magazine is very famous. I have also heard that they cannot be acquired easily. If you force the acquisition, you will have to spend at least twice or even three times the normal price! In that case, the gain will outweigh the loss." Faced with Jiang Cheng's request, Zhang Manlin was stunned for a moment, then thought about it carefully and told Jiang Cheng her thoughts.
After listening to Yuan Zhang Manlin's words, Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Because they rejected my paper."
"Huh?" Zhang Manlin was stunned for a moment. "You, what did you say?" Zhang Manlin, who had long been calm in the face of adversity, was still shocked after hearing this. She couldn't believe her ears. Did she hear it wrong or misunderstand it
"I said, they rejected my paper, so I must acquire this publishing house and get my paper published successfully!" Jiang Cheng said lightly.
"Okay, I heard it this time." Zhang Manlin was speechless at Jiang Cheng's serious answer. Damn, this is not normal thinking at all!
It's like someone wrote a novel, submitted it to a publishing house, and then it was rejected by the publishing house, saying sorry, your novel is not good enough and does not meet the publishing standards. Thank you for your submission, and then in anger, the publishing house bought it? This is so jumpy!
"Mr. Jiang, I'm sure you're not joking, but I still want to ask you, do you know how much this will cost?" Zhang Manlin asked.
"Isn't the company's money enough?" Jiang Cheng asked.
"Of course it's enough. It's just a publishing house. Even if the company doesn't have much money, it can buy it casually. But Mr. Jiang, you're making a fuss about nothing. There are many ways to publish." Zhang Manlin hesitated for a moment and decided that she had to persuade him and not go crazy with Jiang Cheng.
"If I can buy it, then it's not a problem. No matter how much it costs, it's not a problem." Jiang Cheng said calmly: "Although this matter is very sudden, I still think about it. Simply put, I need a publishing house like this as a stage for me to speak."
After hearing what Jiang Cheng said, Zhang Manlin was silent for a moment, and then said: "I understand, Mr. Jiang, I will buy it for you immediately. Since you think that money can solve the problem, then I will buy it."
'Yeah. ' Jiang Cheng nodded and hung up the phone.
Guan Xiaofei and Su Qianqian, the sisters next to Jiang Cheng, looked over here and asked, "Husband Jiang Cheng, you just acquired the publishing house of "Science and Technology" magazine?"
"Well, because my submission was rejected by them, I want to buy them out." Jiang Cheng nodded and said.
"Because we were rejected, we bought their company." Although the two sisters often witnessed Jiang Cheng's imaginative and tough style, they were still speechless at this moment. In this world, except Jiang Cheng, there was probably no one else who could do such a bold thing.
"Come to think of it, one of my papers was rejected by the medical journal before. My husband helped me buy the medical journal." Guan Xiaofei looked at Jiang Cheng and said jokingly.
"Okay." Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Ah hey hey hey hey???" Guan Xiaofei was just joking but she never expected that Jiang Cheng would actually agree to it and actually buy the medical journal. This is a world-renowned magazine! How much money would it cost to buy it!
"I was just kidding." Guan Xiaofei said quickly: "But Jiang Cheng, your action is so romantic, it really touched me."
"But I'm not kidding." Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "I bought the 'Medical' magazine for my own reasons. What you just mentioned reminded me that since I'm going to buy it, I might as well buy this magazine as well! Also, I've read your paper. Although it's pretty good, it still lacks something to be published in a magazine like 'Medical'. Even if I buy it, you're not qualified, so forget it.
"Oh~" Guan Xiaofei suddenly felt a little depressed.
"Sister, you will be able to write a medical paper that can be published one day!" Su Qianqian comforted her sister.
Afterwards, Jiang Cheng told Zhang Manlin about his request to buy the "Medicine" magazine at the same time. Since he was going to buy it, he might as well buy both publishing houses together.
For Zhang Manlin, it didn't matter whether she bought from one publishing house or two publishing houses. It was Jiang Cheng's money anyway, so she naturally agreed immediately.
Since you are crazy, let’s go completely crazy!
Zhang Manlin had already thought about how many CEOs would discuss her actions. However, no matter how these CEOs discussed, they would never guess the real reason why she bought these two magazine publishers!
New York, USA
Editorial department of “Science and Technology” magazine.
As a world-renowned magazine publisher, it owns quite a number of authoritative "technology" magazines in this circle. The people who review, organize and edit them are naturally completely different from ordinary people.
Each of the editors in the editorial department is extraordinary and proficient in various fields. Some of them even just resigned from Harvard University. They are all well-known professors who have made achievements in related fields!
It is quite impressive that a Harvard professor becomes the editor of a magazine. Although the science and technology magazines cannot pay too high a salary to these old professors, they can always experience unexpected happiness here and will not demand a high salary at all.
In fact, the reason why they embarked on the same path is mostly because they often read the "Science and Technology" magazine when they were young, and only when they grew up did they enter related fields. After resigning from Harvard, they came to work in the Science and Technology Magazine, which is also a kind of gratitude.
At this time, this group of professor editors were chatting with other editors.
The topic of conversation was naturally the paper that was rejected not long ago.
"That paper is so funny. It blasted several supervisors! Who is Jiang Cheng? How dare he speak so brazenly! It's really ridiculous!" said a bearded professor with a sneer.
"Yes, the errors in various basic theories are simply unbearable to look at. Even so, you still want it to pass our review? It's ridiculous!" said another gray-haired professor.
This group of professors and editors were very disdainful of Jiang Cheng's paper, but some of them still expressed the opposite opinion.
"This Jiang Cheng is the chairman of the Universe Umbrella Technology Company. He's a legendary figure. He invented the virtual reality device. He's not incompetent. On the contrary, I think his ability is far beyond all of our imaginations. I think it was a bit abrupt to directly reject the previous paper?" A younger editor pushed his glasses and expressed his opinion.
