Leaving the airport without a visa for a layover under 24 hours is at the immigration officer's discretion. The situation in Shanghai is especially unpromising as even a hotel reservation could not guarantee entry in some past cases. You should either stretch your layover so it exceeds 24 hours, get a 10-year visa, or avoid Shanghai.
