You could apply for the 24h twov in Shenzhen and Wuhan. You can have a try.

Is there any method of applying the TWOV before going, or can I only apply upon arrival into the airport?
Many Thanks for your help.

You can't really do anything in advance. In fact, there's nothing to apply for in advance because you're not getting a visa. It will probably all be fine, but you might get some delay when you check-in at SYD because TWOV at SZX is still new, and your two stops take you close to the 24 hour limit. Leave extra time to check-in, and be prepared to escalate to a supervisor if necessary. Perhaps even print the text from Timatic.
