1. Although you do not need a visa to enter Hongkong, since you will be living in Shenzhen, you need a Chinese L visa to enter mainland. L Visa Application in South Africa do not require invitation letter;2. To remind you, if you will enter and exit Hongkong more than one time, a double-entry visa is needed. Multi-entry visa can only be permitted by the Embassy on applicant's particular situation, you can have a try.
