Does "Opinions on Deepening the Reform of Project Evaluation, Talent Evaluation and Institution Evaluation" indicate that the title evaluation of periodical papers is not a rigid requirement in the future? The guiding ideology of the reform opinion is that papers will no longer be used as restrictive conditions for evaluating professional titles in the future. In other words, if you don't have a thesis, you can also evaluate the professional title if other conditions are completely met, but if you have a thesis, you can get extra points. It can also be understood that the thesis is a sufficient condition for evaluating professional titles in the future, but it is no longer a necessary condition.
