Wu Tiecheng (Chinese: 吳鐵城; pinyin: Wú Tiěchéng; Wade–Giles: Wu Tieh-cheng; 1893–1953) was a politician in the Republic of China. He served as Mayor of Shanghai, Governor of Guangdong province, and was the Vice Premier and Foreign Minister in 1948–1949.
After communists were purged from the Kuomingtang in the Canton Coup in 1926, Chiang negotiated a compromise whereby hardline members of the rightist faction, such as Wu Tiecheng, were removed from their posts in compensation for the purged leftists in order to prove his usefulness to the CPC and their Soviet sponsor, Joseph Stalin[1][2]
