SHI Yuanchun, the former president of China Agricultural University, said the academic corruption accusation by six experts against him was a "malicious libel," Beijing Times reported yesterday.
The six agricultural experts, including four professors from his university, wrote in an open letter that Shi cheated in his research to gain his position and academic awards.
Shi, 80, told the newspaper that none of points in the letter made public this week was true, but he wouldn't elaborate.
"I will have a representative to make an official statement for me soon," he said. "I feel no pressure at all. They just took the advantage of the press and Internet to defame me."
He said he would "take some action" as the open letter "was absolutely against the law." But again he would not specify his intended action.
Shi is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering.
In the open letter the six experts said it was a "shame" for the two academies and their purpose was to prevent Shi from "fooling more people" as Shi recently appeared on television as a bio energy expert.
"He never studied biological energy," said Li Jilun, one of the experts, who is a professor with China Agricultural University and an academician with the CAS. "He is just fooling people."
The open letter also claimed that Shi bamboozled the Shenzhen Municipal Government into investing in his company and claimed others' research works as his own when he was president of the university from 1987 to 1995.
The Beijing-based university said as all the people involved in the case have retired and its authorities still need to digest information contained in the letter.
