Atlanta is 12 hours behind Hong Kong

There is no standard 8-to-6 overlap. Someone joins early or late.

Hong Kong and Atlanta are 12 hours apart, and that gap is wide enough that their normal 9-to-5 workdays never quite touch. If you meet regularly, fix one off-hours slot and rotate it between Hong Kong and Atlanta so the burden doesn't fall on one team. Because Atlanta and Hong Kong don't both observe daylight saving, plan to re-check the overlap around March and November.
