Unfortunately, this is not possible. As a Turkish citizen you are allowed to travel through China visa free based on 24 hour visa free transit, but as you can see, your entire transit time through China grossly surpasses the length of 24 hours. In other words, since this itinerary exceeds 24 hours, you will have to obtain a Chinese transit (G) visa in advance or you will have to change your itinerary to fit within 24 hour time frame. Please, have in mind that the transit time is counted from your first arrival in China until your last departure from China, so not only the time spent at the airports, but also the time spent in the plane between Chinese cities.
