From the jazz-age ballrooms of the Peace Hotel to the quantum computing labs in Zhangjiang, from the wet markets of the old city to the blockchain-powered supermarkets of Lujiazui, Shanghai continues to write its extraordinary narrative as the city where all contradictions somehow find harmonious resolution.
