Erdős problem 498

Let z1,…,zn∈Cz_1,\ldots,z_n\in\mathbb{C} with 1≤∣zi∣1\leq \lvert z_i\rvert for 1≤i≤n1\leq i\leq n. Let DD be an arbitrary disc of radius 11. Is it true that the number of sums of the shape ∑i=1nϵizi for ϵi∈{−1,1}\sum_{i=1}^n\epsilon_iz_i \textrm{ for }\epsilon_i\in \{-1,1\} which lie in DD is at most (n⌊n/2⌋)\binom{n}{\lfloor n/2\rfloor}?
