這位中國老爺爺顛覆了人們對時尚呆板、一成不變的印象。事實上，王德順是一位80歲的演員、同時也是一位藝術家。
Last year, at 79, he walked the runway for the first time, his physique at his age causing a nationalsensation. He takes obvious joy in subverting China’s image of what it means to be old.
去年，79歲的他第一次上了T臺，他這個年齡卻擁有媲美年輕人的身材在全國引起了轟動。顯然，他對自己顛覆了中國人心目中老年人的形象充滿喜悅。
Grandpa, you’re my idol!” one admirer wrote on Mr. Wang’s Weibo social media account, one of thousands of such comments.
“爺爺，您是我的偶像!”一名仰慕者在王德順的微博社交媒體帳戶上寫道，那上面有幾千條這樣的評論。
Before cranking up the techno at his 80th birthday party, the man known as China’s hottest grandpa paused from his D.J. duties to poke fun at the staid traditional celebrations for the elderly in a country that venerates old age.
在他80歲的生日聚會上，這位被稱為中國“最帥爺爺”的老人親自擔任DJ，中國自古有尊老敬老、為老人慶生的優良傳統，在把音響開大之前，他拿這個開起了玩笑。
"I should wear a long robe, with the word ‘longevity’ embroidered on the front,” the birthday boy, Wang Deshun, said at his party in September. Far from looking old and frail, the silver-haired actor, model and artist wore a crisp white shirt and black jeans, his back straight and his eyes glittering with humor.
“我應該穿著長袍，上面繡著‘長壽’兩字，”生日老人王德順在9月份為他舉辦的聚會上說。這個銀發的演員、模特和藝術家身穿一件潔凈干練的白襯衫和一條黑色牛仔褲，他的背很直，眼睛閃爍著幽默。
People can change their life as many times as they wish,” he said. Having a goal is important, which is why he constantly learns new things.
“人們可以按照自己的意愿改變自己的生活，”他說。有一個目標很重要，這就是為什么他不斷地學習新東西的原因。
“Being mentally healthy means you know what you’re going to do,” he said. “For example, a vegetable vendor, when he wakes up, he has a goal, he works hard. And when he finishes, he feels fulfilled.”
“健康的精神狀態意味著你知道你要做什么，”他說。“比如，一個賣菜的人醒來時，他有一個目標，他要努力工作。當他賣完菜后，他會感到滿足。”
For Mr. Wang, fulfillment comes in many forms: acting, modeling, exercising and creating art.
對王德順來說，生活中很多東西都可以讓他得到滿足：表演、當模特、鍛煉，還有藝術創造。
And one day soon, he said, parachuting. That’s the plan.
將來的某一天，他說，他想嘗試跳傘。他說，這就是我的計劃。
