Wu is most likely of mixed Chinese and Pilipino blood, just like Reggie.
The virus that infected Wu caused an evolutionary regression. In a Blutbad, it produced a proto-blutbad that resembled a classic werewolf. In a kehrseite, it produced a proto-human. When Wu went proto, the scripts always identified him as "NeanderWu."
Police ranks are not like military ranks. They're basically just pay grades. And Detective is not a rank. It's a job title. Detectives can have the rank of Officer, Sergeant or Lieutenant.
Having a higher rank does not mean you are "over" anyone with a lower rank. You give direction to people when you're the lead, and take it from others when they are. It's not at all unusual for an Officer assigned as the lead on a case to give direction to Sergeants or even Lieutenants who become involved with that case. Wu gives direction to Detectives like Nick and Hank when he assigns them cases (and he probably manages their shift rotations as well), and takes direction from them when he's providing support to them on their cases. Not because he's "under" them, but because they are the leads on their cases.
So Reggie's understanding of PPB ranks is kind of bent, at least as far as the real life PPB would be concerned.
