When it was just a little past three o'clock, another person from our laboratory and I had similar work. I chose Scientific Reports, while he submitted to Protein Cell. I never expected that in just a few years, Protein Cell would have made a great leap forward and become a top-tier journal.

Excuse me, why doesn't this have an IF division?

Any kind of trashy magazine in the country can easily make it to the top rankings. But what does it mean? It only tarnishes the reputation of domestic journals.

Doesn't publishing in Letters count? Then may I ask, as a natural product researcher, if I discover an important new skeletal compound and publish it in the Organic Letters journal, isn't that the highest recognition for our work? Are you saying it doesn't count? Isn't that a joke? Instead, routine articles with no innovation are considered the norm.

Support the words of Qianli Qinchuan. Indeed, the actual situation is as such, the academic atmosphere domestically is indeed... It is truly difficult to find individuals who truly devote themselves and have an interest in scientific research...

Excuse me, have you been rejected by domestic journals repeatedly? Does every domestic journal have your presence? Can you please disclose in which field you work or where you have previously published academic research in a magazine?

Take a look at the JCR data of these magazines, and it will be clear at a glance (to calculate the impact factor, you need to log in to the subscription-based website of the school). Many domestic magazines manipulate the impact factor, such as increasing the proportion of reviews (which should normally be between 5-10%, but many domestic magazines can reach 60-70%), increasing the proportion of correspondence/brief communications/letters to the editor (these types of articles only increase the total citations of the magazine but do not appear in the denominator of the article count, so it is another major weapon to increase the impact factor, for example, the proportion of correspondence in magazines like Cell Discovery, Protein and Cell, Cellular and Molecular Immunology, Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy can reach 50%). These magazines have a particularly low annual publication volume (research articles), supplemented by a large number of reviews and a large number of correspondence/brief communications/letters to the editor, which skyrocket the impact factor, but their international influence is very small.

You're so amazing, I admire you. May I ask how many days it usually takes to receive the first feedback? In other words, is there a high chance of getting it reviewed?

Shut up, can't you be quiet for a moment? Whenever I read a domestic magazine, all I see is you cursing. Isn't it disgusting?

Are you kidding? Would anyone submit to this magazine that rejects articles from CNS? Which one of the PNAS, Cell Reports, eLife, and PLOS series is not better than this mediocre magazine? This is a magazine that Chinese people entertain themselves with, what's the use of even having a score of 20? Who doesn't know how easy it is to manipulate impact factors for these low-volume publishing magazines? The quality of the articles is not up to standard, isn't it just bottom-tier?

Actually, there is no need for everyone to argue. This journal and Cell Research are of the same type, and they are among the better domestic journals. The articles are also of good quality, which is very useful for job titles and awards in the country. However, domestic journals have a common problem of inflating their impact factors with letters to the editor. It is necessary to remind everyone that a small number of units have already set regulations that letters (excluding Nature's letters) do not count as articles and cannot be used for promotion or awards. In recent years, the number of letter publications in domestic journals has increased significantly, leading to internal competition, and each unit can only raise assessment standards. I believe that this trend will continue to spread in the future.

My advice to everyone is that if an article is rejected from a CNS subjournal and you don't want to go through the trouble again, you can submit it to this journal. However, it is best not to submit letters to the editor.
