Can I travel to China as visa-free without nullifying the student visa?

There is a similar procedure when one has a Chinese visa (any kind) in the passport, but you want, for instance, to enter China on a 72- or 144-hour transit visa. What you do is inform the Immigration officer of your situation. What I did too was put up a PostIt on the visa. Preventive action beats having to explain later why they cancelled it... :-)

Hand over your passport and entry form, with the VISA NUMBER section left empty, and tell them that you are not using the student visa today, but wish to enter visa-free. Speak slowly (the Immigration people in Shenzhen are usually nice, but their English, 馬馬虎虎...).
