This question would depend on if he was British or Chinese.
If he was British, then obviously HK.
But if he was Chinese, it would depend on his beliefs and abilities.
In post-WWII Hong Kong, he would be a second class citizen in his own homeland. Barred from the highest levels because he wasn't British and have to live through "Jim Crow"-like social rules.
In post-WWII China, he would be living in third world conditions and having to navigate the Cultural Revolution.
So the question is what his beliefs are and how much ability he has. In China, he could at least raise up the ranks and won't be discriminated against because of his skin color. In Hong Kong, he wouldn't starve, but he and his descendants will suffer through colonial mentality.
Personally, if I was Chinese, I would take my chances in China.
