The Nanfang Insider, a Chinese community website, cited Chinese news sources indicating the iPhones were to be a part of the budding love story on Singles' Day, an occasion when singles woo their special someone.
In the case of the programmer, he spent two years' salary or RMB500,000 (about $82,000) to buy 99 iPhones, and arrange them in the shape of a heart, then propose to his girlfriend before a crowd.
Alas, his 99 iPhones might as well have received the message "Connection failed" - the girl rejected his proposal.
