Wang Sicong, the son of China's richest man Wang Jianlin, has made headlines after buying eight of Apple's newest smartphone, the iPhone 7, for his dog.

Wang posted the photo of his Alaskan Malamute named Coco on the Chinese social media website Weibo with the phones, the South China Morning Post reported. The dog appears quite unsure of what to do with a stack of eight iPhone 7 units beside her. That may be probably because her paws would not work on the new iPhone's home button.

CNN reported that a caption accompanying the photo says "I don't understand all the show-off posts on (social media). What's the point? Don't make me do it?"

Mashable, on the other hand, reported that it was captioned, "Not sure what people are showing off on social media about. There is nothing to show off. I was forced to take action."

Whatever the caption is, we know that Wang has made his point - that if others can flaunt their iPhones on social media, his dog can do it better, with more iPhones to too.

The photos show that Coco has both the rose gold and black varieties of the new iPhone 7. Business Insider reported that Wang must have spent as much as $9,584 (about 63,942 yuan) on the eight iPhones, although it is unclear what varieties he purchased. According to Mashable, that he was unable to get the jet black model, which is priced more than $1,499 (or 10,000 yuan).

Netizens commented on the photos, with some asking Coco to give them an iPhone 7, and others making sarcastic comments.

This is not the first time that Wang has made headlines for his extravagance. Last year, he posted photos of Coco wearing two rose gold Apple watches, one on each paw.

Wang's father, Wang Jianlin, is the chairman of China's largest real estate developer, Dalian Wanda. He is listed by Forbes as having a net worth of $33.3 billion.
