Better contact the Chinese visa application in London asap then
Yes…
Good luck with that. May I ask why you didn't check?Call them first thing tomorrow morning for Australia around 11:30/12am tonight for you in London.

In the meantime go to the Chinese Embassy in London http://www.chinese-embassy.org.uk/eng/visa/
You'll have to pay for priority service and hope it can be done in the UK.
I would've thought its got nothing to do with the Chinese Embassy in Australia? Any Chinese Embassy in the world should be able to issue a visa?
I think it would depend… The price for Australia is different to the US for example.
I've been to China without a Visa before…. I was issued a day visa, for just one day upon entry…. It had a 12 hr stop over in the day.
Not sure if every airport has this service? Shantou is a small city.
If you have all required documents with you in UK, you can apply there and get the visa in 1-2 days if you pay priority.
Visiting a toy factory?
I thought China only does visa on arrival if you're transiting
Yes.
