Pingdingshan is an unremarkable city, and many people may think of coal when mentioning it. It is true that it is a resource-based city, with a total raw coal reserve of 654.38+003 billion tons, accounting for 50% of Henan Province, and is recognized as a "Central Plains coal bunker".

However, in the following ten years, Pingdingshan, once brilliant, went downhill because of the insufficient development of transportation such as resources and railways.
