194: Ten papers? You might as well tell me to die!

The System finally released a task again.

It had been almost two weeks since the last stage task was completed!

Guo Hao was very curious about the next stage's task.

"System Task: The host currently possesses the basic qualities of an independent scholar and should try to find some topics for independent problem-solving.

Task Content: Within one year, independently publish ten academic papers in mainstream journals, with no restrictions on content or discipline.

Task Reward: Free Experience 0 -???? (Settled based on task completion), Reward Two:???? (Calculated based on task settlement time)."

What the heck?

What kind of task is this?

In previous tasks, the various task rewards were at least specified, but this time, it's good, the specific task rewards are not specified, and they are directly calculated based on the task settlement time?

Guo Hao was slightly speechless, this darn System.

It's getting more and more excessive.

Guo Hao slightly composed himself and stared at the System's light screen.

His mind, however, was rapidly thinking.

According to the System's description, this task could still be seen as a test for himself.

The task objective is very clear: ten papers, requiring mainstream publications, and completed independently.

This task is actually very vague, and it feels quite different from the previous task requirements.

In other words, if he wanted to complete this task quickly, publishing ten papers in the fourth quartile would also be acceptable, after all, although the fourth quartile is a bit... well, it is still officially recognized as mainstream.

It meets the System's requirements.

However, it's highly likely that in that case, the System's evaluation and rewards would be a mess.

But if he could produce ten papers in the first quartile or higher, the rewards should be quite generous.

After all, papers are not that easy to produce.

Especially papers completed independently.

Even just the theory itself is an extremely difficult thing; if you want to 'water' the first quartile, ordinary people don't have that capability, at least you need enough connections!

Moreover, Guo Hao didn't think the System would give him such an obvious loophole to exploit.

Based on the System's previous behavior, it would definitely evaluate the value of the paper itself; if the paper's value is high enough, even if published in the fourth quartile, the System's rewards would likely be very high.

But if it's a 'watered' paper, even if published in a core journal of the first quartile, the System will probably judge its actual value.

Thinking of this, Guo Hao felt a headache.

His eyes were full of helplessness.

Papers with high enough value are not that easy to publish!

One year?

"Watering" might be possible, but to have research results with sufficient value, and in core journals, damn it, even an Academician would find it difficult to do!

Thinking of this, Guo Hao's expression was a bit bitter.

This idiotic System, it really knows how to order people around!

Ten high-level papers!

Within one year!

Damn it!

Guo Hao's eyes were filled with helplessness.

"What's wrong, Hao Ge?"

Ma Xin, who was packing his things nearby, just happened to catch a glimpse of Guo Hao sitting in his seat looking a bit depressed, and he asked Guo Hao with a slight curiosity.

"Did something happen? Tell us! Maybe us brothers can help you out!"

Ma Xin quickly said to Guo Hao.

"That's right, Hao Ge, don't keep anything bottled up! Tell us, maybe us brothers can help you out!"

Li Ming, who was nearby, also quickly looked at Guo Hao.

As for Li Wei, who was on the bed opposite Guo Hao, although he didn't speak, his gaze also turned to Guo Hao. It was clear that if Guo Hao needed help, he would definitely step forward to offer it, even if the help he could provide was likely minimal.

Hearing the words of his roommates, Guo Hao felt a little touched.

These roommates, each of them had very good personalities, and their character was also quite good.

This is why he refused when President Huai offered him a single room back then.

After all, staying with these idiotic roommates is also quite nice, you can feel the breath of youth, can't you?

"Nothing, just thought of an academic problem, feeling a bit helpless, that's all! There are too many problems in this world!"

Saying that, Guo Hao let out a long sigh.

And I need to solve ten major problems!

Within one year!

Damn, this dog System!

Guo Hao cursed inwardly.

"Ah! Is that so!"

Hearing Guo Hao's words, Ma Xin's face showed a troubled expression.

"Then this kind of thing, us brothers can't really help you..."

"Indeed... A problem that even Hao Ge you can't figure out, us brothers are even more..."

Li Ming was also slightly helpless.

"Hahaha! It's okay, it's okay! I'll figure this out myself!"

Guo Hao quickly said with a smile to his roommates.

"I'm already very grateful that you guys have this intention! Thank you, brothers!"

Guo Hao said sincerely.

At this moment, Ma Xin hesitated for a moment and looked at Guo Hao next to him and said.

"Oh, by the way, Hao Ge, don't blame me for being nosy, your current achievements are already something many people find hard to achieve in a lifetime, don't push yourself too hard, your current schedule.

It's a bit... Forget it, I hope you understand that health is the capital for revolution! The prerequisite for achieving success is having a good body!"

Ma Xin looked at Guo Hao seriously.

"Don't worry!"

Guo Hao smiled slightly and said to Ma Xin.

"I know what I'm doing!"

"Alright! Then us brothers won't say anymore! As long as you know what you're doing with this kind of thing, it's fine!"

Ma Xin smiled.

"Mm!"

Guo Hao smiled and nodded.

"Okay, I've finished packing too, the train is at 7:30 tonight! Then I'll leave first?"

Ma Xin said with a smile to the three of them.

"I'm leaving too, my flight is later, I still need to catch my flight!"

Li Ming also carried his things at this time.

The two quickly left the dorm.

Only Li Wei and Guo Hao were left in the dorm.

"Hao Ge, what do you think I should do during the summer vacation!?"

After Li Ming and Ma Xin left, Li Wei asked Guo Hao with a slight sense of confusion.

"Should I go to a factory? But it seems like there aren't many electronics factories in Beijing, I..."

"No, absolutely not!"

Guo Hao said directly to Li Wei.

"With your identity as a student at Yan Aviation, it would be a waste to go to an electronics factory! Go be a tutor! The salary is high, and it's respectable."

Guo Hao said directly.

"This... Can I do it?"

A trace of hesitation appeared in Li Wei's eyes.

"Of course! Your grades are so good, tutoring middle and high school students is perfect!"

"But how should I find one?"

Li Wei was still a little confused.

"This..."

Guo Hao pondered for a moment.

"I'll keep an eye out for you!"

"Won't that waste too much of your time, after all, your time is so precious..."

Li Wei said to Guo Hao hesitantly.
