Planning to try submitting to domestic journals, this article considers itself to be pretty good. Based on past experience, it shouldn't be a problem for a journal with a rating of around 8 points. I submitted it to SCMs, but they rejected it within two hours of their working time, even before it reached the editor-in-chief. It was a staff member (seems to be that EO: Wang Gulin, couldn't find any academic information about this person) who rejected it. I have submitted articles before and been rejected, but this is the first time I have encountered such a rejection. It really opened my eyes. It's up to everyone to decide whether it's okay to submit to such domestic journals or to be cautious.
