He's undoubtedly a big brother in the Chinese (and Hollywood) film industry, but veteran actor Chow Yun Fat is equally experienced with stylish tech trends too.
Earlier this week, he took a room of media and his colleagues - actors Aaron Kwok and Eddie Peng - by surprise when he rattled off top tips for taking the perfect selfie, including making use of moving gifs and editing apps.

That’s right folks, the selfie king uses Boomerang – even though he doesn’t have an iPhone. What’s your excuse?
