Heat the oil in a soup pot over med-high heat.
Add the scallion whites and cook, stirring 1 minute.
Stir in the ginger and add the remaining 5 cups broth, the remaining corn kernels with any juices, the pureed corn mixture, and the cooking wine; bring to a boil.
Decrease heat to med-low and simmer for 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, stir together the cornstarch and the water until the cornstarch is dissolved.
Slowly add the mixture to the soup and cook over med-high heat, stirring constantly, until the soup boils and thickens.
Decrease heat to med-low, add the crab, vinegar, and soy sauce; cook until the crab has heated through, about 1 minute.
Drizzle in the egg, stirring constantly, and cook for 1 minute more.
Season with salt and white pepper, to taste.
