Billionair doubles reward for turning his daughter straight. Her response:

Last week, Cecil Chao, a Hong Kong Billionaire publicly announced he would double the "reward" for any man that could turn his daughter, currently married to a woman, straight. The offer? Approximately $130 million.

Now, Gigi Chao, the billionaire's daughter, is back in the news again with an open letter to her father she released through the South China Morning Post.

In the letter, Chao seeks to reaffirm her love and affection for her father while also pointedly trying to help him understand her love and unwavering devotion to her wife.

"My regret is that you have no idea how happy I am with my life, and there are aspects of my life that you don’t share. I suppose we don’t need each other’s approval for our romantic relationships, and I am sure your relationships are really fantastic too," a portion of the letter reads.

Poor sad old man thinks money has more power than love. I am a cynical jaded human being yet I still do not think like that.

scam on dear old Dad. The man has too much money if he thinks that he can buy another person to push themselves onto his daughter... As if his daughter is lesser than a strange man and that the man could willfully force hisself upon her. The Dad is seeming to put a "rape my daughter" tag on her. He should be happy that he has a daughter who still loves him after pulling this shit, and that he's a wealthy man from China.

Apparently he hasn't figured out that for a lot less money, he could purchase semen for his daughter (should she so desire) and get grandchildren that way.

Take the $130 million and help the needy, and let your daughter the hell alone, she is obviously happy and healthy which is ALL you ever want of your kid.

When you think of all the good he could accomplish with that obscene bounty, you really have to question the reality of being too damn rich. His daughter has my sympathy.
