Because it is international and the alternate flight will arrive within 4 hours, the IDB compensation is actually 200% of fare paid, to a maximum of USD 650.

For zero-fare tickets, the "fare paid" is deemed to be the lowest fare charged for a ticket in that cabin--but for LAX-HKG that's likely to be more than the USD650 maximum, anyway.
