A billionaire in Hong Kong has offered millions of dollars to any man who can convince his lesbian daughter to marry him.
Cecil Chao Sze-tsung, 76, publically annouched a $65 million reward after hearing the news that his daughter, Gigi Chao had eloped with her girlfriend Sean Eav in France. Same sex marriages are not legally recognized in Hong Kong.
Sze-tsung said to South China Morning Post, "I don't mind whether he is rich or poor. The important thing is that he is generous and kind-hearted."
He also said that he would help the man who can woo his daughter to launch his own business and called the money, "an inducement to attract someone who has the talent, but not the capital, to start his own business."
Sze-tzung is the owner of Cheuk Nang (Holdings) Ltd., and has rejected the fact that his daughter is a lesbian and that the marriage is false.
He is also notorious for being a playboy, never having been married and once claimed to have slept with 10,000 women.
Gigi,33, who graduated from the University of Manchester and now works for her father's company, married her girlfriend after seven years of being in a relationship.
She has yet to comment on her father's offer but her Facebook and Twitter accounts have been bombarded with friend requests, and potential suitor requests? Accordint to The Telegraph, she wrote, she wrote. "Where do all these people come from? Jerusalem? Ethiopia? Istanbul? ridiculous. It's also quite scary that my friend requests number keeps jumping up every few seconds."
