Earlier this week, a Shanghai-based student was seen outside the Songjiang University campus holding a sign that read offering a "girlfriend share" so he could raise money to buy an iPhone 6
He was offering hourly, daily and monthly deals, and according to reports, the girlfriend was supposedly fine with the plan
The sign read: "Sharing girlfriend for pocket money. 10RMB [RM5] per hour, 50RMB [RM26] per day, 500RMB [RM263] a month. If you are interested, connect to personal hotspot 'wifi sharing master' to check out the girlfriend"
While a number of people seemed interested, it's not clear if anyone actually took up the offer
The thoughtful boyfriend, however, was kind enough to provide a full profile of his girlfriend, which revealed her name as Xiao Ai, and had details about her height, weight and mentioned that she was a foreign language student
According to the conditions of the deal, the buyer will get the chance to eat meals with his girlfriend, but no 'OOXX', which can be interpreted as 'funny business'
The profile also stated that, “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.”

And as it happens, the photos went viral on Chinese social media site called Weibo and the 'poor' (did you see what I did there?) boyfriend was widely criticised
“Today he can share his girlfriend for a cellphone. Tomorrow he will desire a car, a house, a newer girlfriend, prettier and richer women… such moral-less and unethical people have too many desires to satisfy! And as time goes on, girlfriends of such people will have to take on more part-time jobs!”
