In April, the photos of 61-year-old Chinese grandfather became viral on Weibo because of the old man’s killer abs. In early August, some young Chinese men found a 71-year-old geese farmer in Luoyang, Henan, and took photos of the septuagenarian because of his fashion sense.
The images, posted on Weibo, became trending on the social media site, making the former soldier a viral sensation. Like Liang Yuxiang, the grandpa with killer abs, Wang Zhousong could make men in their 20s and 30s insecure with his trim physique, reported China Daily.
What caught the attention of Chinese netizens are the trendy clothes of Wang which is what younger urban men would wear on their rest day. In one photo, he paired a yellow shirt with white T-shirt with a red design on the front, partly covered by an open denim jacket with sleeves partly folded.
He has as accessories a trendy watch, backpack and sunglasses atop wavy black hair. To complete the youthful look, Wang has a pair of black-and-white rubber shoes and black and blue socks.
His photos elicited a lot of positive response from Weibo users such as Azhe who said being fashionable has no age limit, so long as a person has a young heart. Qinaidekui wrote that Wang should be a good example for other retired seniors who should also be trendy, while taking care of their grandchildren.
Even when wearing formal attire apt for his age, Wang still manages to look dapper and trendy by using a black bow tie to go with a purple shirt for a dark blue suit. In another photo, he drapes a black sweater over a white long-sleeve polo shirt. Even in his work clothes, Wang still looks neat by wearing a grey collared T-shirt and dark gray shorts while feeding his flock of geese.
Meanwhile, also in Henan, a 79-year-old Chinese man is impressing people with his energetic workout routine, shaming current crop of much younger pole dancers.
