You're more likely to have IT issues from being logged in at two different places than to lose award space in the space of a couple of minutes.

Book the ex-HKG leg first. Even if a catastrophe happens and you need to cancel, you only lose the HK$330 (the cancellation fee is never higher than what you originally paid in taxes and surcharges).
