Chapter 278 Red Man
Chida Mayu? Kitahara frowned slightly when he heard this name. At this time, he was fully vigilant about any newly emerged case figures. Especially when Mikiko did not tell him the whole truth.
, maybe a character who often appears suddenly is a dangerous pit.
"Who is this Chida?" Kitahara leaned forward slightly and asked.
Mikiko curled her lips, as if talking about someone who made her extremely unhappy, "This Chida is a female doctoral student recruited by my supervisor Muraki two years ago. To be honest, the reason why I hate her is not because I am targeting her.
.But she first became hostile to me out of nowhere."
"He is inexplicably hostile to you? What's going on?" Beiyuan continued to ask.
After learning that Chida was also a female doctoral student, Kitahara became even more surprised.
Things started to make no sense.
What kind of hatred can there be between fellow doctors?
"The thing is like this." Mikiko tidied her hair, "About when I was a third-year doctoral student, Chida was recruited. She was also a student of Muraki like me. I was originally a receptionist for freshmen.
I have no interest in activities such as meetings, but since she is a junior sister from the same school as me after all, I went there."
"The first impression she gave me was that of a quiet, gentle girl who rarely talks. I didn't have much communication with her at the freshman reception. I also had a few casual chats with her about academic matters.
The problem is, my impression of her is that she is the kind of student who is supposed to be very diligent and hard-working, but just can’t grasp the key points. Generally speaking, this type of student is the least conspicuous in the laboratory.
which type."
"However, after actually enrolling, Chida unexpectedly became a popular figure in the laboratory."
"A popular person?" Beihara was confused, "What does it mean to be a popular person? Does your biology laboratory still have to draft a talent show just like the entertainment industry?"
Mikiko curled her lips as if to refute Kitahara's words, but just as she was about to speak, she burst out laughing again, "Lawyer Kitahara, you are right. Yes, the laboratory is just like the entertainment industry, where there is a draft, and Bo is selected. Just now.
What I mean by popular people is that you can follow your mentor and the project team to publish papers as co-authors."
"The resources of a project team and a laboratory are limited." Mikiko continued: "This means that the resources available to each doctoral student are also limited. Or, to put it more cruelly, giving a doctoral student the resources
If there are more, there will be fewer resources for other doctoral students. In other words, there is a ruthless battle for resources among doctoral students. Everyone is desperately trying to get more from their supervisor, from their research group, and from
The project team receives more resource support.”
"Ivory Tower." Mikiko's eyes suddenly fell into a trance, and then she let out a self-deprecating, slightly sad laugh, "This is the Ivory Tower. This is the Ivory Tower that everyone yearns for."
The female doctor who had been deprived of her degree raised her head and looked at Beihara and said: "You must know that it is very difficult for doctoral students to find a teaching position after graduation in the current environment. In countries like Japan, every year
The number of doctoral students who have graduated has already exceeded the supply of teaching positions on the market. Every doctoral student is looking for opportunities to find teaching positions in universities. When it comes to writing thesis, everyone has a Ph.D., and no one can write a thesis. So
, at this time, we come to the key point of fighting for resources and connections."
"How far can you go as a doctoral student publishing papers alone? But if you can follow a mentor and a good research group, then you may be able to get the authorship of a paper in a top journal in minutes without any effort.
What a laboratory can provide is not only the support of experimental equipment, but also the opportunity for doctoral students to publish papers in top journals, rare letters of recommendation, interpersonal networks with academic journal editors, and co-organizers of large academic journals.
Network exchanges brought about by conferences, etc. Only with these, can today's doctoral students get tickets to the ivory tower in the cruel competition for professorships. Like in the past, only one amazing article can lead to success.
Gone are the days when a brilliant doctoral thesis was enough to get a teaching position. Nowadays, when you are studying for a doctoral degree, the most useless thing is your doctoral thesis."
"Yes, a thesis that determines whether you can get a Ph.D. has become the least important thing." Mikiko's eyes revealed a trace of imperceptible loss."
"Then it seems that when you say Chida is a popular person, you mean..." Kitahara looked at the girl in front of him thoughtfully.
Mikiko nodded, "Yes, that Chida can do this. She quickly became involved with my supervisor and other senior professors in the research group, and soon became a celebrity in the laboratory, almost everyone in the laboratory
The author of every paper has her name. She has easily qualified to participate in large-scale academic conferences. In less than a year after enrolling in school, she has already been published as a co-author in many top journals.
paper."
"Lawyer Kitahara, don't underestimate this. You know, some doctoral students work hard, but in the end they can't even be included in the acknowledgments list of the paper, while some doctoral students just proofread and edit the format of the paper, but they don't get it.
You can get the identity of the author of a paper. Some doctoral students go to academic conferences and get nothing, while some doctoral students go to academic conferences and can directly book the next professorship. There are many ways to do this.
Very good. And this Qianda is very good at this art."
"Of course, I don't have any objections to this Chida. You go your own way, and I'll go mine." Mikiko said, "But for some reason, she took the initiative to provoke me."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Take the initiative to provoke you?" Beihara frowned, "Since she is already a celebrity in the laboratory, why is she still hostile to you?"
Mikiko spread her hands helplessly, "Yes, I don't know either. The way she dealt with me was the same as many pediatricians. For example, she knew what experimental equipment I needed, deliberately borrowed it, and kept it unused for a long time. As a doctoral student
I was inexplicable, and started to speak ill of me overtly and covertly. When arranging academic conferences, they deliberately tried to trip me up, such as giving me a remote control without batteries, or causing some temporary glitches in the projector. At the beginning, I
I thought all these frictions were accidental, but when I gradually realized that she was targeting me, I was confused for a long time and couldn't figure out why she took the initiative to look at me and didn't like it."
"In the end, when the two of us had a public conflict, it was because she deliberately damaged my experimental samples." Mikiko said: "I had a batch of experimental samples that needed to be placed in the refrigerator in the laboratory. At that time, I happened to be the only one in the refrigerator.
After receiving the sample, she pretended not to know anything and turned off the power to the refrigerator. Later, when I found out, I threw the sample at her without ceremony."
"Smash...smash it over." Miyagawa opened his mouth slightly at the side.
It was hard for Miyagawa to imagine that something close to a fight could happen among polite doctoral students in the laboratory.
Mikiko sneered, "Of course, after the sample was smashed, she also fought back. The two of us grabbed each other's hair and struggled together, breaking many tubes and reagents in the laboratory. Later,
Other students in the laboratory held us back. In the end, the matter was reduced to a minor matter, and it ended with the two of us paying some money to the laboratory. From then on, I fully disclosed my relationship with Chida.
Broken up."
"Isn't it ridiculous? If there is anyone who dislikes me, it should be Chida."
