A girl from China managed to find herself 20 boyfriends and asked each one of them to gift her an iPhone 7. And amazingly, all of them gifted her one.
The story first came to public knowledge via a blog post on Chinese platform Tian Ya Yi Du, where a user going by the name Proud Qiaoba wrote about a colleague who tricked each of her 20 boyfriends to get her an iPhone 7, which launched in the country last month. The woman, called Xiaoli on Chinese social networking website Weibo (though that is not her real name), reportedly then sold all the iPhone 7 units she had on the Hui Shou Bao website, making around CNY 120,000 (roughly Rs. 12,00,000) in the process.
This money went into paying the down-payment for her new home in the countryside.
According to a BBC reporter, Proud Qiaoba stated in her post that Xiaoli “is not from a wealthy family. Her mum is a housewife and her dad is a migrant worker, and she is the oldest daughter. Her parents are getting old and she might be under a lot pressure hoping to buy them a house… But it’s still unbelievable that she could use this method!”
No one can know if all of it is true or not but even the tech resale company acknowledged to buying 20 iPhone 7s from a woman in early October.
