This love-struck young chap however wanted to change his single status before this year's celebrations and a ring was perhaps too conventional for him. So he went ahead and did this: he bought 99 iPhone 6s and made a heart shaped ring with them around his girlfriend.

According to The NanFang Insider, this extravagant proposal, which occurred in Guangzhou, cost this man about $82,000 which is apparently worth two years of his salary. So on a pavement, surrounded by spectators who had formed a ring around the couple, he popped the question to his beloved who... wait for it... said no.

So basically, 99 iPhones will only get you 99 Siris, not a wife.
