Back at the research institute, Lynch sat in the conference room, listening to the researchers discuss the characteristics of the aircraft.
That is the power of the boss. When he called out the name "aircraft," the Chief Engineer could only praise the name as "a very fitting name, a flying machine, it's so appropriate," and nothing else.
"I already know these specific parameters, so can anyone tell me, if we mass-produce it on the assembly line, how much can the cost be controlled to?"
Most of these researchers were not well-regarded but competent people whom Lynch poached from major heavy industry companies.
This situation is common in research institutions; clearly, some people have never been in contact with projects being researched at the institute, yet every time results are produced, their names always rank at the top.
On the contrary, those who pushed research progress and made actual contributions to the research find themselves ranked at the bottom.
Is it fair?
