China DailyAll the three county-level cities in Qingdao, East China's Shandong province made the list of China's top 100 counties, according to CCID Consulting's latest research report on county-level economy competitiveness released on July 25. Promoting the high-quality development of county-level economies plays an important role in promoting the high-quality development of the country's economy, said Qiao Biao, vice-president of CCID. Qingdao, which has a vast county-level area with a large population and a good development foundation, plays a critical role in driving high-quality county development in Shandong province. Jiaozhou's development has been bolstered by major strategic platforms such as the China-SCO Local Economic and Trade Cooperation Demonstration Area and the Qingdao airport economic demonstration zone.
