I dont know if a NYC-HKG flight is really the most effective way to gain miles. You be better on it if you do something like JFK-LAX-SYD-NRT-HKG-FRA-DFW-JFK but thats just my impression and I dont know the actual distances without checking. It might be worth a look...
I suggest a DONE4 to be on the safe side since many of your segements are on OW carriers. You could exchange LAX-SYD against DFW-NRT on AA and then NRT-SYD on JL & SYD-HKG on CX, on the return its AA again so 2 eVIPs would come handy.
If you plan to do this MR until the end of FEB and dont have own eVIPs you might be able to trade some on CC.
Good luck !
