1973, Xionggu Group established a joint venture subsidiary in Hong Kong-Xionggu Group (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd., which was renamed as "Hong Kong Construction (Holdings) Co., Ltd." in 2004.

Since Xionggu Group was established in Hong Kong, Yu Jingbo has been one of the main leaders of the organization, and Yu Jingbo has assets of several billion yuan. Although Yu Jingbo became a senior politician as the founder after the reorganization of Xionggu Group.
