visit to shanghai for conference

Question

I am flying from London to Shanghai on 26 March (arriving 27th) to attend a conference in Shanghai.  I will be leaving on 29th and flying direct back to London.  Will I qualify for a 72 or 144 hour visa?

London-Shanghai-London isn't a transit, so transit without visa obviously does not apply. You either need to get a visa in advance or change your flights.
