Albums like My Happy Times (1998) and Nothing Really Matters (1999) established him as a fresh voice in Cantopop.

His 2000 Mandarin album Black White Gray and the 2001 Cantonese masterpiece Shall We Dance? Shall We Talk! catapulted him to pan-Asian fame.

He also starred in over a dozen films, earning praise for roles in Love in a Puff (2010) and See You Tomorrow (2016).
