"Mr. Xilin, our... manuscript has been rejected."

After dinner in the afternoon, Jiang Xilin, who was originally in a good mood, was stopped by Qiu De at the door of the main building of the institute and informed him of such "shocking" news.

However, Jiang Xilin's concentration was still good. As soon as the emotions of surprise and disappointment emerged, he was forcefully suppressed.

He looked at Qiu De very calmly,

"Which journal is it, "Scholar" or "Journal of the Federation"?

According to Jiangxi Lin's understanding, "Scholar" and "Union Internal Journal" were both founded by the Kingdom Scholars Association. Although there are no restrictions on disciplines, the submission of manuscripts is extremely strict.

On the contrary, "Truth", a journal co-founded by the Kingdom Arcanist Association and the Kingdom Alchemist Association, which only publishes alchemy and arcane knowledge, is better off.

Therefore, when Qiu De said that he would reject the manuscript, the first two things that Jiangxi Lin thought of were the first two.

However, Qiu De shook his head with regret and handed the three envelopes to Jiang Xilin.

"Mr. Xilin, they all refused."

"This is really..."

Jiangxi Lin couldn't hold it back and showed a bitter smile.

He thought of countless possibilities, but he never expected that these three top journals would give him rejection replies at the same time, as if they had already discussed it.

For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

"Um...Mr. Xilin, don't think too much. The rejection of the manuscript is not necessarily our problem. It may be that they don't understand our research?"

"Hahaha, if you put it that way... you are really quite a Q."

Jiangxi Lin was amused by Qiu De's comfort.

"Ah Q?"

But Qiu De didn't seem to understand the meaning of the last unfamiliar phrase in Jiangxi Lin's dialect.

"It means that I am very good at comforting myself."

Jiang Xilin waved his hand and gave a simple explanation, while also indicating that he should not pay attention to those insignificant details.

"Mr. Xilin, what should we do now?"

"Now? Wait until I see the reason why they rejected the manuscript."

Jiang Xilin took the envelope and patted it in the palm of his left hand, then ended the conversation with Qiu De and returned to the office on the second floor.

In the office, Andy and several other junior arcanists were there, but most of them were busy with their own things.

Only Lurich Garde saw the three envelopes in Jiang Xilin's hand, and his mind immediately recalled the conversation he had with Camus outside the institute in the morning.

"Hey, Mr. Xilin, your manuscript has been rejected?"

Lurisi Gard's voice sounded very suddenly, but the content of the words was even more sudden, so that Andy, Hassanqi and Lloyd, who were working seriously, were all "alarmed".

The three of them successively set their sights on Jiangxi Lin.

Jiangxi Lin turned to look at the smiling Lurisi Gard, who was also smiling,

"Yes, the manuscript was rejected."

Judging from his appearance, he didn't seem to be bothered by the rejection, and his mood didn't get worse.

This made Lurisi Garde, who originally wanted to make Jiangxi Lin feel disgusted by this incident, was stunned for a moment.

In his imagination, Jiangxi Lin would have strongly denied the rejection.

What he has to do is to tear away all the obstructions of Jiang Xilin and expose the failure that he tried so hard to hide in front of everyone.

However... However, Jiangxi Lin was so generous and admitted it.

"Rejection of manuscripts is normal. I often receive rejection receipts. In fact, as long as you make modifications according to the modification suggestions on the receipt, it will basically be stable if you resubmit."

Although Jiang Xilin didn't look depressed at all, Ang Di still smiled and comforted him.

After comforting him, he realized that he seemed to have forgotten to ask about the journal Jiangxi Lintou.

If it was something he was familiar with, he would be happy to help Jiang Xilin revise the manuscript.

After all, he has almost figured out the temperament of the editors of the journals he often submits to, and he is confident that Jiang Xilin can pass the manuscript with minimal changes.

"By the way, Xilin, which journal did you submit to?"

"Scholar, Union Journal, and Truth."

Jiang Xilin didn't hide anything. After all, there was nothing to hide.

However, Ang Di, who had secretly planned to use his experience in draft revision to help Jiangxi Linyi, turned around and sat down after hearing this answer, as if he had been cast a silence spell.

What the hell... my manuscript was rejected by three of the top journals in the Kingdom, what else could I say?

He continued to talk shamelessly and said that he would use his experience in revising manuscripts to help him.

Come on, is that a problem that can be solved by "experience"? It doesn't matter how in-depth the articles they have published in the past are, and what the identities of the scholars who publish the articles are.

The atmosphere in the office is somewhat mysteriously quiet.

Andy, Lloyd and Hassanqi all continued to do their own things silently, but Lurisi Gard still looked at Jiangxi Lin with a smile, but did not speak.

Jiang Xilin was too lazy to pay attention to him. The most important thing for him now was to read the rejection reasons in the acknowledgment letter.

Returning to his seat, Jiang Xilin read all three acknowledgment letters carefully.

Among them, the journal "Scholar" disliked the fact that the structure of his articles was irregular, his research methods were too strange, and he could not see the significance of his conclusions.

The reasons for rejection of "Internal Journal of the Federation" and "Scholar" are almost the same, except that there is one more "data processing method needs to be verified" than "Scholar".

As for "Truth", which is half "arcane blood", the reasons given are relatively convincing.

In summary, there are almost three points.

1. There are many self-made words in the article, and there is a lack of necessary annotations, making it relatively complicated to understand.

2. The data processing method is very novel, but there is a lack of necessary demonstration for the new method.

3. The conclusions obtained are very interesting, but the meaning of the conclusions is very unclear.

Therefore, based on these three acknowledgment letters, the reasons for rejection almost all fall on the fact that Jiang Xilin's research methods are too novel and unique, and the conclusions obtained are of unclear significance.

So, if you want to successfully publish this article, you have to write a separate paper on the research methods and data analysis used in the article?

"What the hell, forget it, I'll try another journal."

Jiang Xilin is a thief who hates trouble.

Moreover, one paper was divided into two or three pieces?

Don't make trouble, he is not the water essay maniac in his previous life.

Although it is indeed necessary to publish a separate article on rational research methods, Jiangxi Lin is just lazy.

…

Although I plan to find another journal, I can still make some modifications within my power.

For example, add some explanations of research methods to the article, or make an appendix listing some notes on self-created vocabulary, etc.

Jiang Xilin spent nearly an hour sorting out what needed to be revised and added to the article, and then sent it downstairs, ready for Qiu De and Riley to continue sorting it out, and then select a new journal to resubmit.

However, what he didn't expect was that when he came to the door of the assistant arcanist's office, he saw a scene that surprised him:
Chapter completed!
