Jackie Chan and David Beckham Meet Yao Ming for an Epic Group Photo

The NBA China Games made a grand return after six years, recently held at the Macao Venetian Cotai Arena, attracting a large number of celebrities and stars who came to catch the action and star-gaze, making for a lively scene.
Counting the celebrity attendees from the entertainment industry, there were Jackie Chan, Tony Leung Chiu-wai, Carina Lau, Lee Dong-wook, Henry Lau, Keung To, Edan Lui, Stanley Yau, and MC Jin, among others. Sports icons included China's top basketball star Yao Ming, British football legend David Beckham, NBA (National Basketball Association) legendary center Shaquille O’Neal, and Alibaba founder Jack Ma also attended as a distinguished guest.
Jackie Chan posted several group photos with Beckham, Yao Ming, and O’Neal, captioning them “Haha, long time no see,” which quickly went viral online. Netizens’ comments brought plenty of laughs: “Didn’t expect Jackie Chan to look so petite.” It turns out Jackie Chan was “sandwiched” between Yao Ming and O’Neal, the huge height gap forcing him to look up with a surprised expression. The four’s lineup was humorously dubbed the “Up-Down-Up-Down” combo by netizens.

As for Jackie Chan’s “funny” group photo with Beckham, the playful spirit of both men came through, making Jack Ma on the side appear rather serious.
Carina Lau also shared highlights of the game, posting a photo with her husband Tony Leung. Tony is seen clutching a rolled-up white towel tightly throughout, sitting in a posture reminiscent of an obedient model student, with several photos showing him smiling shyly at the camera, remaining still like a wax figure. In contrast, Carina was seen laughing heartily, glancing around, and engaging warmly with him, perfectly reflecting her outgoing personality. Netizens commented: As expected, one is super I (introvert) and the other is super E (extrovert)!
