Your math is way off. Did you check the distance on a map? SFO-HKG 2x will earn you 27k miles [1].
Most programs have their status levels at 25k miles for lowest and 100k for highest. So, ignoring spend, 2 round-trips to HKG will earn you Silver status on United.
4 trips in business class (double miles) will earn you 110k miles, enough for 1K status.
