I may actually be incorrect per this:

I'm not a legal expert, but this is implying to me that for 24 hours in China, you may be able to have "multiple stops" so your PVG-PEK segment may qualify for TWOV. I would highly recommend calling the airline though as I'm not 100% I'm interpreting the 24 hour transit correctly.
