HKG - PEK - HKG requires a visa in advance. You're not eligible for 72 free transit because you're not in transit.

Then you need to fly HKG - PEK - "Any country that is not Hong Kong or China". And you must fly it, not just buy a ticket. You may experience difficult checking in at Auckland if they will see an itinerary that is not compliant for visa-free transit, so leave extra time just in case.
