Well, exiting outside the airport is totally different thing. If you want to exit the first thing you will do upon landing in Guangzhou is to approach 24/144 hour visa free transit counter where you will apply for a temporary entry permit. This application is free of any charge and here you will present your flight tickets. Now, it will be up to airport officials whether you will be granted a permit to exit the airport or not. You have to be aware that the issuing a temporary entry permit is not a passenger's right, but more like a bonus that can be granted, but also it does not have to be. This is usually granted to those with long layovers, overnight layovers, disabled passengers, passengers with small children and similar. In any case, you can apply for one and if rejected, there are no consequences... You will just return to the transit area. In any case, I wish you the best of luck.
