One day extention because of the tickets schedule

Hi, I am Bolivian (South America) but I study and live in Brazil, I have a 15 days F, I am going to Guilin to an academic event. My flight is From São Paulo-Brazil to Guilin (connection in Beijing) round trip, I purchased a 15 days round trip. When I purchased the ticket I just think in my final destination (Guilin) in this case I think there were not problems, but I'am afraid to have to do imigration in Beijing . I am arriving in Beijing on July 16 early in the morning (immediately I will depart to Guilin), and my return is programmed for July 31st from Guilin, so I will be in Beijing on July 31st after midday, and the flight from Beijing to São Paulo depart on 00:20 of august, 1st, (but the policy of my flight does not permit me to left the airport so I will stay there just waiting for my fligth) I am afraid to be stopped or punished because of the time (some hours, because my entry in Beijing will be early in the morning).
Thus, I would like to know if I will need to ask for a visa extension (just for some hours or a day) where I should go to ask for it (in Guilin), and if it is an ease procedure.
Thank you in advance for your time.

Don't worry, it is ok if you remain in the airport transit area. It is not necessary to extend your current F.

Thank you Angus, so one more question, I will enter on July 16st, and I will leave on July 31st, as it said 15 days "after the entry" I considered that is ok, but some people said that the 15th day is not July 31st, but July 30st, could you said to me which is the correct date?

Hi, it should be 15 days from the date of entry (included). So I am afraid you will be considered overstaying your F if your flight for leaving is on July 31st.

An issued visa can not be changed or extended, so please visit the embassy asap and apply for a new one.
