LAX-TPE-PVG is fine. You need a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exit_%...mit_for_Taiwan to leave the airport, but this is easy to apply for if you live in the USA. If you don't have this permit, you can transit no problem, just don't leave the airport.
PVG-LAX is fine
PVG-HKG-LAX is fine, you can stop over in Hong Kong for 7 days. Assuming you don't have this permit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exit-E...Kong_and_Macau
PVG-HKG-TPE-LAX is tricky. Technically if you stop over in HKG you are supposed to fly to a "third country" and China wouldn't count TPE as a "third country". Not really sure. You need the first mentioned permit to leave the TPE airport and purely flying HKG-TPE is fine.
