That's the scheme. A concocted way to get around contractural responsibilities of required payout and layoff in order of seniority of an existing contract. It's not particularly clever and easy to see through.

In other jurisdictions, this would likely be adjudicated as fraudulent. And there would be contractual remedies and potential prosecution. In HKG, who knows ?
