Your US based issuers won't even know about you getting a cc in HK. Credit reports do not cross international borders.

So you will be starting on a clean slate when applying for credit cards in HK. However, some issuers such as HSBC make it easier for you to get approved for a HSBC premier of your target country if you have a HSBC premier from another country.
