When in Hong Kong...
Try to get over to Lantau and visit the world's biggest Buddha.
Also, do the Mid-Level Escalators on a Sunday if you can.
You must have a go on the Star Ferry to Kow-Loon side and go shopping.
Also a must...take the cable car up to the top of Victoria Peak and look down on the Island, a great view and some great food too.

Good luck in Shenzhen, even through you just need to catch a train. Was there 2 years ago for 5 days, didn't find a single person speaking any English. Or anything resembling English.
LOL, had to Google a picture of KFC to show to our hotel front desk to get directions to it, and only got a few hand gestures to the KFC about 2km away

Fast train to Qindao is still going to take a really long time - and the restaurant cars on Chines trains are more often closed or the rules too arcane - bring plenty of snacks 
The phrase you will need is "ting bu dong" which means I hear you but I don't understand - i.e. I don't speak Chinese.

That's an aftermarket sticker to cover up the US labels. The US and EU use different octane tests with the result that the same gas has different numbers depending on which side of the pond you're on. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
