Michael Forsythe, A Publisher in Exile Gets the Big Scoops on China's Elite. New York Times, June 18, 2016 (in the column of "The Saturday Profile" that appears every Saturday).

Note:
(a) "Mr Ho [Pin (Cantonese pronunciation for 何频]said in an interview in Flushing, Queens, a favorite meeting spot of his not far from his office in Great Neck, NY."

Great Neck (village), New York

(b) "Another news site he founded [in 1991] and later sold [to Hong Kong media mogul Yu Pun Hoi 于品海 in 2009], Duowei 多维, correctly predicted the leadership lineups for the previous two party conclaves, in 2002 and 2007.
(c) "In a recent interview [江迅 (interviewer), 中共十九大可能出現的顛覆. 亞洲周刊, May 5, 2016 (cover story)] with a Chinese-language publication, reprinted on Mirror’s website, he predicted that the party might dispense with the tradition of designating successors to the top leaders, making it unclear who would eventually take Mr Xi's place. He also said rigid rules on age might be loosened. That may allow leaders such as Wang Qishan, who is overseeing the party’s crackdown on graft, to stay in office.
(d) "Flushing these days feels more and more like China. Mr. Ho chose to meet at the Rose House, a faux English tearoom with overstuffed red leather sofas, chandeliers and loud floral wallpaper, a kind of Laura Ashley-gone-rogue style common in Beijing and Shanghai."
(i) For tearoom, see tea house (in en.wikipedia.org anyway; that is,. Wikipedia has a page for "tea house) and redirect "tearoom" to this page).

(ii) Laura Ashley

(1925 –  1985; a Welsh fashion designer)
(iii) I am clueless about what it looks like for "Laura Ashley-gone-rogue style."  I google and only this report uses this term.
