Hong Kong ( CNN ) -- The daughter of the tycoon who on Tuesday offered HK $ 500 million ( US $ 64 million ) to any man who would marry her found the proposal `` quite entertaining , '' she told CNN . Gigi Chao said her father , property developer Cecil Chao Sze-tsung , `` loves her very much '' and she was aware of the cash offer before it was first reported Tuesday by local Hong Kong media . The tycoon 's offer came after Chinese media reports last week that she married another woman , her long-time companion Sean Eav , in a civil ceremony in Paris last week . Asked by CNN to confirm her civil union , Chao said she was `` not in a position to verify that . '' Her father , however , was unequivocal , telling CNN `` reports of Gigi being married is not true , it 's a rumor . '' However , he did confirm that he is offering the multi-million dollar bounty for a future son-in-law : Any nationality or wealth of the suitor is fine , the only requirement is that the man `` loves my daughter , and she loves him . '' Asked if she would consider her father 's offer , Chao said , `` we will see . '' The 76-year-old tycoon himself has never married , and has long earned a reputation on the pages of local newspapers and magazines in the arms of beautiful women , having once bragged of having had 10,000 girlfriends , the South China Morning Post reported . Gigi Chao is an executive director of Cheuk Nang Holdings , a luxury property development company run by her father . What happens when a hip hop artist confesses same sex love ?
