Jacky Cheung celebrated a career milestone recently when he staged his 1,000th show in Haikou, China as part of his 60+ World Tour.

The Hong Kong singer is said to be the first Chinese artiste to surpass the 1,000-show mark.

According to a press release from Universal Music, Cheung's concerts over the years – starting in 1987 with his first solo tour – have taken him to over 100 cities across 18 countries and regions.

At his latest show in Haikou, Cheung was moved to tears as he reflected on his remarkable journey.

"What does 1,000 concerts mean to me? It's a reflection of the past 40 years, where I've spent nearly 3,000 hours standing on this stage. I've poured all my sincerity and love into every performance," the 63-year-old told the crowd.

"To every fan who has supported me, whether you're here with me tonight or not, my journey has been shaped by your unwavering love and encouragement. Without you, I would never have had the chance to do what I love most," the Hong Kong 'God of Songs' added.
