Myles was confident he was the best variety show director in the whole of Pollerton.
Changing the director would undoubtedly affect the show's quality, but the crucial point was the degree of the impact.
“Mr. Weston Tanner.”
“Who? Weston Tanner?”
Myles thought the name sounded familiar, but he couldn't recall where he had heard of that person.
Fulbert hurriedly reminded, “Mr. Carling, Weston is also part of the television station's crew. He was the host as well as the director of Happy Time Machine.”
Myles' memory was jogged at Fulbert's words.
Pollerton TV Station's kids' channel was the worst among all the television networks, not to mention Happy Time Machine was aired during the five o'clock evening time slot when most of the kindergarteners were getting off school.
As the show's target audience was children, the backdrop, makeup, and other settings of the show were very simple. Hence, most of the preparation could be done by one person.
Therefore, Weston struck others more like a person tasked with menial, insignificant jobs rather than a director.
Myles laughed out loud. “I thought you hired someone incredible, but now I know it's just Weston, that good-for-nothing. Since Pollerton TV Station has succumbed to such a pathetic state, I have no reason to stay anymore. Let's go, Fulbert.”
“Wait a minute, Mr. Carling. You're able to jump ship, but what about us?”
“That's right, Mr. Carling. We followed you and quit our jobs because we believed in you. What should we do now that you're leaving?”
Myles was a famous director, so it wouldn't be difficult for him to find a job at another television station.
As his assistant, Fulbert had all the reasons to tag along with Myles.
