In fact, it was many years ago that two academicians were expelled, which was not directly related to the self-discipline guidelines issued this time. The two academicians are Fang Lizhi, former vice president of China University of Science and Technology, and Chen Minheng, former president of East China University of Science and Technology.

Among them, Fang Lizhi was removed from the list for political reasons, while Chen Minheng was removed from the list for scientific, moral and economic reasons. The Chinese Academy of Sciences is very cautious in dealing with Chen Minheng. Finally, according to the articles of association of academicians, it was voted by academicians and announced at the academician conference held in June 2000.

Academician Deying, who was with Chen Minheng at East China University of Science and Technology, said that the Chen Minheng incident had a lot to do with the famous "Hu Liming incident" that year.

Hu Liming is a rising star in Ran Ran's scientific and technological circles in Ran Ran. From 199 1, at the age of 28, he graduated from East China University of Science and Technology and stayed in school. Later, he was promoted to professor and obtained the qualification of doctoral supervisor. It took Hu Liming only two years to become one of the youngest doctoral supervisors in China at that time. But in 1997, his doctoral thesis "plagiarism scandal" was exposed six years ago. According to the investigation, he took for himself the wonderful contents of unpublished papers sent to him by foreign scientists.

Hu Liming's tutor is Chen Minheng. Not only that, several other fake papers published by Hu also have Chen's signature.

According to an academician, when discussing the issue, the Chemistry Department of the Chinese Academy of Sciences pointed out that during Dr. Hu Liming's time, Chen was the president of East China University of Science and Technology, so he was busy and probably didn't know much about Hu's papers. However, many academicians believe that since they are mentors, they should be responsible if they become famous. "In science, there is no one who is not an official."
