Myself is living in the south of Shandong, I have been to Qingdao a number of times, but are to play, not long stay, I thought Qingdao is still very well known
The deepest impression of Qingdao from my childhood, when I was seven or eight years old, the early 90's it, my parents took me to Qingdao to play, it was my first time to Qingdao, the result is because of the littering of the fruit skin, was on duty by the aunt of a fine fine! Five dollars... I live in a small city, I've never seen such a thing. But you can also see that Qingdao people do love their city.
Another thing is that the elder in my family told me that he went to Qingdao to escape from the war in 1948 or 1949, and he saw that Qingdao already had buses at that time.
To the Shandong people, Qingdao is synonymous with foreign style and advancement, Qingdao is to Shandong as Shanghai is to China, Qingdao people always speak with a kind of arrogance, as if they look down on outsiders, but in my opinion, this is derived from the love of one's hometown, which is completely understandable, look, Qingdao Beer, Haier, Sifangshou, which is not a big name?
There is some research on the history of Qingdao, and some articles written about Qingdao, such as:
It is beyond imagination that Qingdao, the first city in Shandong Province, jumped from a small fishing village to become a metropolis in only 17 years, and why the Jiaozhou Bay can be developed into Qingdao, and Guangzhou Bay can only be evolved into Zhanjiang?
But Qingdao also has its own problems, that is, industry is very strong, tertiary industry is not strong, private enterprises are not strong, now the most powerful BAT and Huawei, millet, which is not a private start? The private sector is not strong, so there are not many job opportunities, and the income of the citizens is not high.
No matter what, Qingdao is the most capable city in Shandong, I wish Qingdao a better future.
