Yes, your itinerary is definitely eligible for 240 hour visa free transit and you do not need any kind of visa. When traveling on 240 hour visa free transit it is allowed to cross the Chinese provincial borders, so a visit to both Beijing and Shanghai is allowed/acceptable. You can take a train or plane between the two cities. Have a nice visit to China.
