The first and the most important detail is that your itinerary is eligible for 24 hour visa free transit and you do not need any kind of visa. If you have booked your flight from Naha to New Zealand through, for example, China Eastern, then you will just remain within the transit area of Terminal 1 or to say it airside. Basically, you will just walk from an arrival to departure gate without leaving the airside and you do not need to fill out any forms nor perform any formality. Also, you will not be a subject of immigration or customs control. You will just cross a security check between the two gates. This is all and it is so straightforward. However, if your ticket implies a change in terminals in Shanghai, then there some procedure, although not at all problematic. So, if you have to change the terminals, the first detail that you will do upon landing in Shanghai will be to approach 24/240 hour visa free transit counter where you will apply for a temporary entry permit by presenting your flight tickets. This is free of any charge. After a short check, you will be granted a permit and you will continue toward immigration. When you clear the immigration you will take a free shuttle bus that takes roughly 10 minutes to the next terminal. There you will cross the exit immigration and head to your departure gate. You have enough time, so you should not worry. This is it and I wish you a pleasant journey.
