I think there's probably a bit of politicking going on, but also, HK and Shanghai are quite a bit far apart both in distance as culturally. By opening a park in Shanghai they are going right for the upper crust of the MAINLAND Chinese population as well as foreign ex-pats. There's a ton of Western development in Shanghai so I'm not too hugely surprised. I think Disney is just seeing the writing on the wall that China is where the future economy will be.
