Chapter 654 It's Not Reluctant, It's Impossible!

Tiandu.

CNKI Headquarters.

Liu Heng looked at the messages coming from below, his face becoming more and more ugly.

Since Linde was banned, the number of cases sued CNKI has significantly decreased.

After Chen Song, a famous legal celebrity, joined, there was a rebound for a period of time, but the number of complaints did not increase much.

On the contrary, when Chen Song was also at the risk of being removed from the paper, CNKI finally came to purity and no one dared to go against them again.

Even legal experts failed, aren’t others asking for trouble?

However, just when Liu Heng thought that Chen Song's defeat would shock the academic community, CNKI could usher in a year and a half of purity, and no one would attempt to hit the stone with an egg in a short period of time, Xu Qiu suddenly appeared on the complaint list!

It was fine a few days ago, but just from last night, complaints, prosecutions, etc. have almost surged exponentially, and the email address of the Internet Department has exploded in the blink of an eye!

"This is a college in a certain place. Not even a third-tier university. Is it worthy of threatening us to stop CNKI?" Liu Heng clicked on the first email, and as soon as he saw the person who came, he almost laughed out loud.

The Technical College... How many people there can be used by CNKI. Isn’t this funny?

"The next one is a second-tier university."

"Is this one mixed up?"

"Wait... This is Linhai University!"

The more you look down, the more serious Liu Heng's face becomes.

If it was just some technical colleges and universities sending letters, Liu Heng would still understand.

Although Linhai University is a provincial key, the 211 university is much higher than before, but it has little impact - after all, Xu Qiu, Linhai First Hospital and Linhai University are on the same boat.

However, when top universities such as Wuhan University, Zhejiang University, and Magic City Jiaotong University also began to appear in the notice of disabling CNKI, Liu Heng's pupils finally couldn't control his violent tremors, and his skin was twitching wildly. He couldn't believe that this kind of thing would have happened.

"What's going on? What's going on!" Liu Heng quickly found several insiders of prestigious universities to ask. He wanted to know the authenticity of these emails.

If this is one of the prestigious schools resisted CNKI, it would not be a climate.

However, when this wave swept across the university circle and once pushed the whole country's universities to breathe, it would be impossible for CNKI, which could no longer maintain a high position!

...

At the same time, this anti-monopoly trend is still continuing.

Sun Yat-sen University.

Principal's Office.

A middle-aged man with a round face and white temples sat upright in his seat, at the conference table, others were either drinking tea or meditating, but everyone had a very serious expression.

There are a few big words on the huge screen behind it.

"Annual CNKI database procurement fee: 1.72 million!"

One hundred and seventy-two thousand...

This amount of money is definitely not a small amount for Tiandu University, which has an annual allocation of more than 20 billion yuan!

What's more, CUHK?

The grants given by the Ministry of Education need to be used in all aspects of school construction. They seem huge, but they may only be millions left in each department and department.

And just using a database, it will cost 1.72 million.

In contrast, the domestic Wanfang database only costs 130,000 yuan, Superstar data 90,000 yuan, and Vip is also free to use...

"One.72 million, there are too many things you can do. To give up CNKI, at most, let students work harder and refer to data from Wanfang and Chaoxing platforms." A man said in a deep voice. He couldn't stand the CNKI style.

"No. Reference data can avoid CNKI, but what about severity checking? CNKI's database coverage is the largest, and the authority of severity checking is the first. Once we give up CNKI, students will have many difficulties in publishing papers!" Another person shook his head... Who doesn't want to get rid of CNKI? It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't!

"The charges are too high. The gross profit margin of CNKI is stable at more than 50%. The best-selling product of the world's No. 1 market-value company has a gross profit margin of only 48%!"

"What's this? Tongfang CNKI, which provides services to CNKI, has even reached 72% of gross profit margin!"

"What is the point of discussing these things? It has nothing to do with us whether we make huge profits or not. The key is whether we need to renew the subscription!"

Everyone was arguing.

The middle-aged man with white temples knocked on the table with his index finger, and the conference room was silent in an instant.

He sighed and said, "Vice President Zhen said it well, not that he is unwilling, but that he cannot. We have no other way except renewal."

CUHK is a top university, students, teachers, professors, etc., and is highly dependent on papers. The importance of CNKI is self-evident.

Everyone sighed regretfully.

CNKI is too big, even if it is CUHK, it doesn’t have much power to resist in front of the other side.

"Unless... all universities unite." Everyone came up with this idea at the same time.

But then he laughed awkwardly.

So how is this possible?

In previous years, it is not that no universities have tried this.

For example, one-tier university in Shandong Province once tried to join forces with other universities to boycott CNKI.

As a result, their plan died before leaving the province.

CNKI reduced the subscription fees to other universities in the province and gave a special discount price. Therefore, other universities in the province immediately turned against each other and rejected the proposal of this first-class university.

Therefore, the subscription fee of CNKI that year was 910,000, but the following year it increased to 3.910,000, and it increased significantly every year.

This led to the fact that the first-tier university was forced to give up the CNKI. The students in the colleges were also affected and could not use CNKI plagiarism check and other services. The university was almost closed down. In the end, the president, deans of various departments and other management teams changed their positions before they reconnected to CNKI.

But the price is still very high, about 1.8 million yuan, which is much higher than that of top universities!

Since then, who dares to pay attention to CNKI?

Even if it is Tiandu University, it will only issue a painless explanation such as "Resist the price increase, otherwise the use of CNKI will stop using it."

Rather than warning the Internet, it is actually just comforting the victims.

"Impossible." Everyone shook their heads, their expressions of disappointment and helplessness.

"President, Academician Tong's phone number!"

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside. After a moment, the assistant appeared at the door and handed the phone over panting.

Academician Tong?

The eyes of many senior executives in the conference room changed for a moment... Is that veteran academician?

In the territory of Daxia, there were very few surviving veteran academicians, and they could count them with one hand, and each of them had a higher status than imagined.

It is not an exaggeration to say that these people are the backbone of Daxia, which laid the foundation for the prosperity of Daxia today!

"Academician Tong!" Everyone's backs were unconsciously straightened, and a hint of respect was revealed in their expressions.
