吴飞鹏 / Wu Feipeng

Overview

吴飞鹏 is the architectural culture researcher interviewed by 成言梁 about 赉安 / 赖安, Shanghai’s former French Concession, and modern architectural heritage.

Current Profile

The source presents Wu Feipeng as a researcher who moves between archival work, old newspapers, personal contacts, on-site building walks, and public-facing writing. His book-search for Lai An begins with a 2015 encounter, then develops through a building list from Lai An’s grandson, Shanghai archival confirmation, Paris travel, and continued correction of uncertain details.

Key Characteristics

• Wu grounds architectural claims in archives, newspapers, field visits, and bounded uncertainty.
• He argues that Lai An’s role in shaping the former French Concession has been underestimated.
• He links architectural style to construction quality, urban development, immigration, war, and city memory.
• He publicly corrects his own earlier mistake about Anna, showing the provisional nature of this research.
