Manchester United legends Nemanja Vidic and Dwight Yorke were in attendance during a film screening for the latest edition of the Kingsman film series 'The Golden Circle'.
Airing in Shanghai, the pair put on a less-than-covert display as they met members of United's extensive Chinese fan base.
Vidic and Yorke, who have a combined total of nearly 500 Premier League appearances and eight top-flight titles between them, attended the event on behalf of United as ambassadors.

Before and after the screening they signed autographs and had pictures taken by the admiring fans - with the occasional selfie stick seen waving on site.
United will make for much easier viewing for the former stars after enduring a sticky spell in the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era.
And while the Red Devils are yet to emulate their previous success', having not won a league title since 2012-13, the 20-time winners are on the up again it seems, with last season's double testament to that.

Under Jose Mourinho, United have looked much more like the ruthless reds of old keeping pace with rivals Manchester City at the summit just five points back, and making easy work of their Champions League group so far.
Fresh from their Carabao Cup victory over Swansea on Tuesday, United's first real test will come Saturday when they host Mauricio Pochettino's high-flying Tottenham, who seem to be becoming more accustomed to life among English football's most elite.
Spurs are level on points with United in third, with goal difference denying them second, and will leapfrog Mourinho's side with a win at Old Trafford, while United can close the gap on Pep Guardiola's so-far 'invincible' City.
