A
Chinese man has offered to 'rent' his girlfriend out to other men so
that he can raise money to buy the latest model of iPhone.
Images
of Wei Chu, 25, standing outside Songjiang University, Shanghai holding
a 'Girlfriend Sharing' advertising board first emerged on Chinese
social media earlier this week.
He
invited interested passers-by to log on to a nearby wifi network in
order to check out images of his 21-year-old girlfriend Xiao Ai, who can
be 'rented' for just £1 an hour - although the man insists 'no funny
business' can take place on dates he suggests should be focused around
dinner or studying.
Wei Chu apparently offered to rent out
his girlfriend (pictured above) in a desperate attempt to fund the purchase of one of
Apple’s eagerly awaited iPhone 6 handsets.
Individuals
interested in taking up the offer were given a short biography of the
man's girlfriend, including details on her height, weight and hobbies.
Wei
Chu also made clear that the offer was in no way a sexual way -
explaining that customers would be given the option to take his
girlfriend on dinner or study dates.
'Service
items include but are not restricted to: eating together, studying
together, saving seats (in libraries/classrooms), three-person dates.
Fees generated during dates should be split,' his placard read.
Wei Chu's unorthodox entrepreneurship is just one extreme method of raising money to pay for the latest iPhone installment.
Earlier
this week, a Saudi Arabian man asked his future brother-in-law for an
iPhone 6 as a dowry for marrying his sister, according to the
International Business Times.
Meanwhile,
following the launch of the iPhone 5 last year, a Chinese couple were
charged with human trafficking after admitting selling three of their
newborn babies for £8,000 between 2008 and 2013 in order to pay for
luxury items including an iPhone.
