A set of fashion shots of a 71-year-old man who’s raising geese in Luoyang, Henan Province, became all the rage online.

Wang Zhousong, dressed in varied stylish outfits, appeared in street style in the photos, which was highly praised by netizens as “cool and handsome like a TV star.”

Wang launched a geese base in Luoyang after he retired. He said about a month ago he was asked by several people to take fashion shots on his way to the base.

Here are some of the comments from netizens:

“Never too old to play it cool! Never too late to do something with a young spirit!”
“Those retired senior citizens who spend all their time taking care of their grandchildren should learn something from Wang’s retirement life.”
“I appreciate what the photographers have done as they showed their concerns about the life of elderly people in their own way.”
“The photo series well demonstrates that elderly people can also have fun in their retirement life.”
