Li Hongmei is an author about whom limited public information is available. Two works can currently be confirmed, covering the fields of history and architecture respectively. Her historical book Hutu Riverbank unfolds its narrative along the river and its surrounding areas and belongs to historical writing, while the architecture-related work Building Construction introduces knowledge of architectural structures. Judging from these two works, Li Hongmei's writing spans both the humanities and engineering technology, showing attention to local history and river culture as well as to basic professional content in architecture.
