He was the assistant chief editor of the Hong Kong Commercial Daily, one of three pro-Beijing newspapers in the Chinese territory.
As for Mr Long, he says he is studying at a Christian seminary in the Bay Area, and attending a local church.
Because of the newspaper`s government affiliation, Mr Long held the rank of a junior government official, as well as the deputy editorship.
According to its official website, Hong Kong Commercial Daily is one of several titles under the Shenzhen Press Group, which is directly controlled by the Communist Party.
But he believes it was essays supporting the 2014 pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong that he shared privately, to his Wechat group, that got him into trouble.
