Production

The Invincible World Tour in Taipei saw upgraded outfits, visual and special effects, and stage props. The concert was divided into eight thematic sections, each offering a different experience. The total production cost surpassed NT$180 million, making it the most expensive concert held by Chou up to that point.^[3]

A live album of the tour was released in November 2019.

Commercial performance

Pollstar ranked Chou's June 2018 Shanghai concert at number 36 in their annual top 100 international box office report, with an attendance of 43,769 people and $9,381,304 in revenue.^[4]

Controversies

Chou's concert in Singapore on September 3, 2016, faced several controversies, including poor sound quality. Attendees seated close to the stage reported difficulty discerning the vocals of the singer at certain points during the concert, attributing this to the overpowering bass and excessive reverb. In addition, allegations were made regarding inadequate ventilation and crowd management.^[5]
