Having finished everything, Qiao Ze quietly sat down in front of Li Jiangao's computer and entered the submission system to start the withdrawal process.
This was one of the more overbearing aspects of the submission rules of renowned journals.
Once an article was submitted, regardless of whether the writerr wanted to withdraw the article, an application had to be submitted before the journal's editorial department decided whether or not to publish it.
And before the editorial department agreed to the author's request, the paper in theory could not be sent directly to similar journals.
Defying the rules could result in withdrawal of the manuscript or being blacklisted by those journals.
Li Jiangao sat behind Qiao Ze without saying a word, watching silently and offering no persuasion.
His mind was in turmoil.
The content of the reply Qiao Ze had just sent to the journal's editorial department still echoed in his mind.
