Why it matters
The story serves as a human-interest piece highlighting positive employer-employee relations in the entertainment industry.
Hong Kong singer-actor Aaron Kwok is celebrating a lucky win, but the biggest reward may have gone to his employees.
The 60-year-old recently pocketed HK$1.06mil (RM550,948) after his racehorse Dancing Classics pulled off a stunning performance at Happy Valley Racecourse in Wan Chai, beating 20-to-1 odds to claim victory.
Rather than keeping the windfall for himself, Kwok reportedly spent HK$500,000 (RM259,939) to charter a private jet for eight members of his team travelling from Hong Kong to mainland China for work.
