Qiao Jiyang smiled without saying a word.

Anna guessed, "Son, did you arrange McGregor's concert specifically for your dad?"

Qiao Jiyang sneered inwardly: Nonsense, it wasn't something I arranged on purpose. Would a world-class singer be so stupid as to hold a concert on a cruise ship?

Inviting him to organize this concert cost me 200 million yuan; otherwise, do you think he would have come?

On the surface, she obediently said, "Mom, it was indeed arranged by me for Dad. Today is Dad's 60th birthday, and I wanted to give him a surprise. Dad has worked hard all these years, and I wanted to make him happy."

"Son, sob sob sob..." Qiao Jiyang had barely finished speaking when his father, George Kang, was moved to tears and reached out to grab Qiao Jiyang's arm, bursting into tears.

Anna was also moved and wiped away her tears.

After having breakfast in the VIP room and resting for a while, I even took a nap at noon. At 2 p.m., McGill's concert was held as scheduled in the lobby on the fourth floor of the deck.

George and his wife sat in the front row of the concert. George watched his childhood idol singing and dancing in front of him, and then glanced at his well-behaved son sitting next to him. He was once again moved to tears.

The concert lasted from 2 pm to 6 pm, a total of four hours. Although McGregor only sang five songs and there were other performances in between, George Conn was already very satisfied.

The hall was packed with 6,000 people, including McGill fans and ship crew.

It's true that McGregor was invited by Qiao Jiyang at great expense. As for these thousands of fans, they weren't invited by Qiao Jiyang. Instead, they came because they received inside information that McGregor was going to hold a concert here and bought tickets at high prices.

All the money from the tickets went into Qiao Jiyang's pocket. On average, each person received 100,000 yuan per ticket, totaling 550 million yuan from 5,500 people. After deducting the 200 million yuan spent on inviting McGregor, as well as the expenses for renting the ship and all the food and supplies on board, Qiao Jiyang still pocketed 50 million yuan.

This group of people were all die-hard fans of McGill, and they were also very wealthy and influential people in the world, causing quite a stir at the scene.

The concert ended at six o'clock, and the stage lights suddenly dimmed.

McGonagall stood on the stage with the microphone and said loudly:

"It's a pleasure to be here today and to see so many of my old friends. Now I have an important announcement to make: Happy 60th birthday to my old friend, Mr. George Kang! Happy birthday, Mr. Joe!"

The next second, the spotlight shone on George Kang, who was wearing a black mask. George Kang was shocked, stood up, clenched his fists, and his eyes glistened with tears.

He first thanked McGill on stage, then clasped his hands in a fist salute to the cheering audience, repeatedly saying thank you.

McGill continued, "Now, please welcome Mr. George Conn to the stage so we can give him a grand birthday party."

George Kang didn't react for a moment, but Qiao Jiyang stood up from beside him, took his arm and said, "Dad, let's go up on stage to celebrate your birthday. Mom, you come too."

Once on stage, the audience was astonished to discover that this was none other than George Kang, the world's richest man!

When people first heard the name George Kang, they didn't realize which George Kang it was, assuming it was just someone with the same name, and no one even considered that he was the richest man in the world.

When the audience saw him standing there without his mask, their mouths dropped open in astonishment.

Their surprise at the world's richest man appearing here was far greater than that of singer McGregor.

Yes, in this era where capital reigns supreme and businessmen prioritize profit, the world's richest man is far more valuable than singer McGill.

Who wouldn't want to know the world's richest person?

The world's richest man has so much money and resources. Even the slightest connection with him, or even the smallest cooperation, could make his family rich for generations.

Even if I can't have any interaction or cooperation with him, just being able to share a room with him, take a photo, or shoot a video would be the greatest honor of my life.

So when George Kahn took the stage, a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted from the audience.

The stage lights suddenly went out, and half a second later, as the music started, the lights gradually came back on, and a cake taller than a person was pushed out by a waiter.

McGur, now acting as the host, loudly proclaimed to the crowd, "Friends, let's all wish Mr. George Kahn a happy birthday and sing him a birthday song! Happy birthday to you..."

As McGonagall's voice rang out, the entire hall erupted in singing.

George Kang stood on the stage with a happy expression, singing along with everyone.

Qiao Jiyang, standing out from the shadows, wore a sinister and venomous expression: "Considering you are my biological parents, let this concert be my final celebration for you!"

After singing "Happy Birthday," they ate cake. George Kang's large cake was naturally not enough for everyone present, but the staff had already distributed smaller cakes to everyone as instructed by Qiao Jiyang.

George Kang stood on the stage and excitedly expressed his gratitude to everyone, especially his son, Qiao Jiyang, who had given him a wonderful surprise.

The birthday party ended at 9:30 p.m. George and his wife had drunk quite a bit of alcohol, so they went to the fifth-floor deck to get some fresh air and sober up.

On the fourth floor, Qiao Jiyang continued jumping around with a blonde, blue-eyed beauty in his arms.

The four bodyguards that Dad brought were also forced to drink a lot of alcohol by Qiao Jiyang.

Around ten o'clock, several loud bangs were heard, and someone screamed, "Oh no! Oh no! Someone has fallen overboard!"

"Help! Someone has fallen into the water!"

"It looks like Mr. Qiao, the richest man in the country!"

"Help, help!"

...

Qiao Jiyang calmly embraced the beautiful woman and emerged from the fourth-floor lobby. Standing on the deck, he looked down into the water under the ship's lights.

There was chaos in the water; it seemed someone had fallen in, and a group of people were rushing to rescue them.

Qiao Jiyang stood on the deck for four or five minutes, then suddenly remembered that his parents were upstairs in the wind. He quickly said to the blonde, blue-eyed beauty, "My parents are still upstairs, I have to go check on them!"

After saying that, he grabbed the blonde, blue-eyed beauty and ran upstairs, only to find that the rooftop was already in complete chaos.

Someone rushed over, grabbed his hand, and shouted, "Young Master Qiao, your father and mother have fallen into the sea!"

Qiao Jiyang was shocked and refused to believe it. He frantically searched for his parents in the crowd, shouting, "Dad, Mom! Where are you?"

Where are you?

After searching around without finding it, Qiao Jiyang looked into the water in horror, tears streaming down his face.

Shout loudly into the water: "Dad, Mom, where are you?"

Underwater, a group of people are still retrieving people.

Some were speaking in Chinese, some in English, and some in a language Qiao Jiyang couldn't understand, chattering away incessantly.
