"Okay."
...
After chatting casually for a while, Qiao Yu got to the point: "By the way, Senior Brother, I heard today that the chemistry department gives cash rewards for publishing papers? A hundred thousand for an SCI Area I paper, is that true? Do we have similar rewards at our Math Research Center?"
Chen Zhuoyang didn't think too much and directly replied: "Of course, there are. For example, your paper will earn at least a two-hundred-thousand reward once it's published in Ann.Math. If Director Tian were to help you apply for more, it might even be three hundred thousand.
Sigh, it's just that you didn't catch the good times. Ten years ago, publishing one in Ann.Math had a minimum reward of five hundred thousand. Now, they're not allowing such high rewards anymore, which is a pity."
Chen Zhuoyang's casual remark immediately excited Qiao Yu, who instinctively asked: "That much? Does the school have that much bonus money to give?"
