After the Shang dynasty was actually the Zhou dynasty. The Zhou and Shang were rivalling states; the Shang dynasty at the time being the more powerful. But as the Shang became unstable, the Zhou rebelled. The slaves of the Shang king at the time took up arms against him and fought for the Zhou rebels. The emperor then committed suicide.

As for the Qin dynasty; they came after the Zhou dynasty. The Zhou dynasty fell into feudaling states (as the empire was a feudalist state); a period of civil war. The Qin dynasty, under Qin Shi Huang, defeated the other states, and Shi Huang became the first Chinese emperor.
