: CHICAGO — At an hour when many of his countrymen were just rising, Taiwan's
: most famous son poured himself another cup of coffee in the Yankees'
: clubhouse Wednesday afternoon, and broke into an amused grin.
星期三下午，當大部分台灣的人們才剛起床的時候，最著名的台灣之子王建民在
洋基休息室裡， 為自己又倒了一杯咖啡，臉上露出閃亮亮的頑皮笑容。
: Had Chien-Ming Wang heard anything new about the Taiwan Stock Exchange
: after he improved his record to 4-0 Tuesday night?
難道說，當他在星期二晚上，把記錄推向四勝零敗之後，他又聽到了什麼關於台
灣股市的新聞？
: "When I win, the stock market goes up," Wang said, smiling broadly and
: giving a thumb's up for emphasis. "When I lose, the stock market goes down."
王笑著說（比了個向上的手勢強調）：「當我取得領先時，股市就上漲，當我落
後時股市就下跌。」
: Isn't that crazy?
這會不會太起肖了點？
: "It is," Wang said. But that's part of life in a nation fully engaged
: in Wang-mania.
「 確實啊！」 王也這麼說。
不過，（股市與王的連動表現）在一個患了王建民狂熱症的國家，只是一部分的生
活寫照而已。
: A recent Sports Illustrated article underlined Wang's massive popularity
: in Taiwan – and how he can't appear in public without causing a mild uproar.
: All of it runs directly counter to Wang's reserved personality.
最近SI的一篇報導就有提到：王在台灣受到的歡迎程度匪夷所思，他不可能出現在
一個地方只引起小小的騷動。所有的一切，在在衝擊著小王本人愛走低調的個性。
: "Here is better," Wang said of a less-exposed lifestyle in the U.S., and
: his in-season home in Edgewater.
「在這裡（美國）好多了」王說，在美國Edgewater的家，他比較能享有不被窺視
的生活。
: Because in Taiwan, "in terms of popularity, he's even more popular than
: Britney Spears in the U.S.," said Joseph Liao, a Taiwanese sportswriter
: based in New York for the World Journal. "When he loses a game, it's like,
: 'Why did he lose? What happened? What's wrong?
駐點紐約、為《世界日報》寫體育新聞的一位台灣記者Liao說：「從流行文化的觀點
，王在台灣的影響力，遠勝過Britney Spears之於美國人。當他輸的時候，總是會有
這樣的聲音跑出來：『為什麼他會輸呢』？『發生什麼事了』？『哪裡出問題了』？」
: "He can never lose," Liao said. "I tell my friends, 'Guys, stay calm.
: You don't win every single game.' ''
Liao說：「他像是永遠不能輸球。我只好提醒我的朋友：『喂，冷靜點，沒有人
戰無不勝好嗎？』」
: And yet, the 28-year-old Wang has won more games over the last three
: seasons than any pitcher in the majors. Tuesday night, the Yankees'
: 9-5 victory over the White Sox was Wang's 50th career win.
現在，這個二十八歲的投手小王，已經是過去三季中累積最多勝的投手了。
星期二晚上對白襪，他拿到了第五十勝。
: With just 85 career starts, Wang became just the third pitcher in the
: last 50 years to achieve 50 wins that quickly – joining Dwight Gooden
: and Ron Guidry, his former pitching coach with the Yanks.
用85場先發拿到了五十勝，小王是過去五十年中，是僅次於 Dwight Gooden、和古
椎爺（他之前在洋基的投手教練）之後，第三個能用如此快的速度，就達到這個
里程碑的投手。
: As usual, many Taiwanese were tuned to the game; Wang's starts are
: broadcast live, and the usual night game in the States is an
: early-morning start in Taiwan. "People watch the games on computers
: in their office," Liao said. "One of my friends watches the games, and
: his boss actually watches with him."
許多的台灣人會關注小王先發的比賽，電視會即時轉播，而美國晚上的比賽是在
台灣的早晨舉行。
Liao說：「人們通常用電腦在辦公室裡看球賽，我有一個朋友就這麼作，而他的上
司其實在旁邊跟他一起看。」
: It's a wonder such a dip in productivity doesn't have a negative economical
: effect.
這實在很令人驚疑：工作效率下降，不會對經濟帶來負面影響啊？
: The SI story noted a 25 percent index rise in June and July, when Wang
: posted a 9-1 mark.
SI的報導裡面也有提到，台股去年在六、七月間上漲了25%，當時小王繳出了九勝
一敗的戰績。
: At the hour that Wang gave up two runs in Tuesday night's second inning,
: which tied the game, the Taiwan Stock Exchange dipped to its daily low,
: only to rebound as the Yankees rallied.
星期二的比賽中，當小王在第二局丟掉兩分那一小時，跟比賽連動的台灣股市下
探了當日低點，並且只在洋基逆轉的時候反彈。
然而，股市在終場的時候，以微幅下跌作收。
: However, the exchange finished slightly lower for the day.
: Actually, "I think it's a little exaggerated," Liao said of Wang's link
: to the stock exchange. "But the newspapers do sell more on the days after
: he pitches."
Liao說：「其實，我想小王的勝負跟股市連動的論調，確實是有一點誇大，不過報
紙在他勝投隔天賣得特別多。」
: Following Wang's 50th victory, Taiwan's Apple Daily ran a huge cover
: story with photos from each of the right-hander's 50 career wins. It is
: an instant collector's item.
隨著王的五十勝手到擒來，台灣的蘋果日報用建仔做了一個超大的封面專題，
並且用許多過往的照片，來記錄這位右投生涯中的每一次勝利。這馬上成為王
迷蒐集的目標。
: Then again, anything with Wang's image or name sells (and sells) in his
: country.
任何東西只要有王的簽名或是肖像，就會在他的國家狂賣。
: "Especially bobble heads," Liao said. Whenever a new shipment arrives,
: "they're usually gone in a couple of days. They love the bobble heads."
Liao說：「特別是搖頭公仔，賣得超好，只要有新貨到，往往在幾天之內賣完。
人們超愛搖頭公仔。」
: The latest must-have Wang item is a laptop computer in the Yankees'
: navy blue, with Wang's autograph superimposed on the cover. "It sells
: like crazy," Liao said.
最新的王迷必備收藏品，是一台筆記型電腦，電腦上面印有王建民的簽名。
Liao說：「這台電腦也是狂賣啊！」
: When a special limited edition subway Metrocard was issued with Wang's
: photo, it was sold out in minutes, according to Liao. "The people aren't
: going to use it, either," he said.
當限量的特別版捷運悠遊卡用上了小王的照片，沒幾分鐘就賣光光。
Liao說：「人們不會去使用這張卡。」
: Another collector's item.
: No. 40 pinstriped Yankees shirts can be spotted all around the streets of
: Taipei. "They don't know the other teams," Liao said. "But they know every
: single player on the Yankees."
另一個收集商品↓
王的40號球衣會出現在台北的大街小巷， Liao說：「人們不知道別的(MLB)隊伍，卻
知道洋基隊每一個球員。」
: Even Guidry became a folk hero in Taiwan, based on stories like Liao's on
: the pitching coach's admiration for Wang.
甚至連古椎爺都變成了台灣的民族英雄，Liao說，這是基於他當洋基投手教練時，
有許多他對王不吝讚美的新聞花絮。
: When he heads back to Taiwan, usually in December, "people follow him
: everywhere," Liao said. "I wouldn't call them stalkers, but they do
: stay around his place. People know where he lives."
當小王回到台灣時（通常是十二月），Liao說：「人們會跟他跟到任何地方，我不
想說這是跟蹤狂的行為，但是他們總是守在他的住家附近。人們都知道他住哪。」
: Mariano Rivera is an icon in Panama, and Hideki Matsui is a megastar in
: Japan, but even they admit they can't touch Wang when it comes to nationwide
: popularity.
守護神李維拉在他的國家巴拿馬是個偶像、松井秀喜在日本是個巨星，但即使這
兩個人也都同意，要跟小王比那種全國狂熱的受歡迎程度，根本就連小王的鬢角
邊邊都摸不到。
: "He's very big," Matsui said, adding, "stocks must be high today."
松井秀喜說：「他（王）非常大咖！」還加了一句：「今天股市大概會漲。」
: When also told of the possible connection to Taiwan stocks and Wang
: wins, Rivera said, "We're going to try to help him keep it up."
聊到小王和台股的連動，李維拉說：「我們會繼續試著幫他維持台股的漲勢。」
