The Yangtze Scholar requirements are diverse, with many rigid criteria, but... the key is the various categories.
Although Chen Gong couldn't meet the requirements for a distinguished professor, such as having a doctoral degree, serving as a professor for many years...
However, Chen Gong actually met the criteria for a lecture professor:
Firstly, the requirement to conduct scientific research abroad.
Okay, Chen Gong didn't have that, but... Chen Gong's team did!
Whether it's Professor Seth from the World Health Organization or James Reagan who's planning to collaborate deeply with Chen Gong, both are willing to be a part of Chen Gong's team.
So, this was never a problem!
Next... one must hold a professorship or similar position at a prestigious university.
Chen Gong was obviously an honored alumni of Shanhe Medical University, and what's more, he was leading courses.
The key... Shanhe Medical University had also granted Chen Gong a professorship.
