After being denied boarding I called the Shanghai Airport Immigration Inspection office as noted above and they said NO. A transfer or transit in another country does not qualify. You must actually go through immigration and enter the country so that there is a stamp in your passport. Then you can reenter the airport through immigration and this will qualify.
