Next week, I am flying from Detroit in USA to Guangzhou. However, I have a 3 hour layover in Beijing. So, the flight route is Detroit > Beijing > Guangzhou. I stay in Guangzhou for 30 hours then fly out from Guangzhou > Krabi, Thailand. I do not plan to leave Guangzhou/Guangdong province during those 30 hours. Can I receive the 72 hour free transit even though I will technically first enter China through Beijing (this is just a 3 layover at airport) and exit through Guangzhou 30 hours later?Thank you!

You cannot if you have more than one stop in Mainland China. No exceptions.
