"Uh... what did I just hear?"
"Dr. Zhai just asked... what is Spider Web?"
"Is there something wrong with him?"
"Same question, what is Spider Web?"
"Same question +1"
"..."
Netizens flooded the comments again, many expressing confusion with a slew of "???".
What is Spider Web?
The proportion of people present who knew what it was roughly equated to the proportion of those with higher education in China.
Why? Because it is an academic literature database with a virtual monopoly.
According to available data, Spider Web dominates the college market with a nearly 100% share, with over 90% of domestic academic resource searches and full-text downloads coming from Spider Web.
Its literature repository exceeds 280 million documents, including more than 3 million masters' and doctoral theses, rightfully earning its status as an "infrastructure" of the academic world!
Of course, there are other platforms like Wanfang and Wei Pu, but none are as well-known as Spider Web.
