According to the news released by We Media, “CCB began to relax and add mortgage loans”, is this real?

Today, the Shenzhen Construction Bank told the reporter that recently, some information from the media about our branch’s reduction of the down payment for the second house was misread. At present, there is no change in the personal housing credit policy of Shenzhen Construction Bank. The down payment ratio of the first home loan is not less than 30%, and the down payment ratio of the second home loan is not less than 70%.

Since the policy has not changed, why are there misunderstandings?
