It's easier than you might think.

At the moment, I am using the similar solution!
If you use this way, org-mode fragement previewing may be broken if
you setting \pagestyle{fancy}.

There are many, the first one is "ctex", which may be the most popular
latex solution of chinese users.
All the university latex templates in China seem to be writen as
"class", instead of "style".
and nearly all of them are derive from class "article" or "book"
It is the reason that I want this feature:
#+LaTeX_CLASS: article:myclass
It will use default "article" template, and replace class name to myclass!

Org ships with like three or four classes. . . Not all classes in the world. You can add your own. With add-to-list it's not even 'dangerous'. Are you looking for a system to your custom classes? I have at least five classes that I use, e.g. #+LATEX_CLASS: problemset loads lots of math stuff and tikz. . . This seems pretty close to optimal to me less the fact that you need to escape '\', but that's just Emacs Lisp. –Rasmus -- May the Force be with you

I do Chinese documents using xelatex, and it works just fine (with the
xeCJK package). I make a "mychinesestylefile.sty" file with all my
xelatex and Chinese font stuff. Then:
(eval-after-load 'ox-latex
'(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
'("myclass" "\\documentclass{article}
[NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES]
[NO-PACKAGES]
[EXTRA]
\\usepackage{mychinesestylefile}"
("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")
("\\subsection{%s}" . "\\subsection*{%s}")
("\\subsubsection{%s}" . "\\subsubsection*{%s}")
("\\paragraph{%s}" . "\\paragraph*{%s}")
("\\subparagraph{%s}" . "\\subparagraph*{%s}"
And then in any given document:
#+LaTeX_CLASS: myclass
If I need to layer another project-specific style file on top of that, I
add a second line in the header:
#+LaTeX_HEADER: \usepackage{someparticularpackage}
Any document that might require Chinese starts as a "myclass", and then
goes from there. I set this up a year ago, and haven't needed to mess
with it since.
Hope that helps,
Eric

.sty can be easily resolved.
The problem is that many template should be writen as "class" instead of
"style". If I want to use a custom class , I need to do:
1. (add-to-list 'org-latex-classes ...)
2. (setq org-latex-default-class ...)
I don't know other language users, for Chinese latex user, the first
thing of write a document may change the document class, for example,
change "article" to "ctexart". If I want use org-mode ,I should add all
the "class" common used to the "org-latex-classes", It will be a
nightmare.
In org-latex-class, "article" and "ctexart" elements are very similar, the
only different may be their class names.
I want such result:
1. I don't need customize 'org-latex-classes
2. #+LATEX_CLASS: ctexart can work!

However, I think the way to do it in LaTeX is to write custom *.sty
files which can then be included using #+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{...}
for individual exports or more generally using org-latex-packages-alist.
I've been wanting to learn how to do it but I did not find the time yet.

Hi: org-mode odt exporter are using 'org-odt-styles-file, which are odt templetes, I think latex exporter should do like this. for example: org-latex-styles-file or org-latex-templete-file we can include many different language's templates into org, and no need touch the ox-latex.el and the user can write theirs template easily, we can use "locale" to determine which template will be used converting latex fragements can use templates too, like: org-latex-fragment-templete-file --
