Why did Linzi decline?

Qilu Petrochemical contributed more than 70% of GDP in Linzi District, and a Qilu Petrochemical revitalized a district. However, with the rise of new energy, the traditional petrochemical industry is no longer unique. The industrial structure of Linzi District is dominated by fine chemicals, which has fallen behind in the fierce economic competition.

2. Unreasonable urban construction.

The former Linzi District has developed in many aspects, much like Europe now, with urban and rural areas interlaced. The living quarters of Qilu Petrochemical's major factories are very lively and the social development is stable. After 2000, Qilu petrochemical residential area gradually declined, leaving only some elderly people in the living area. After 20 12, Shihua Construction gradually withdrew from Linzi. At this time, the southern part of Linzi District began to become depressed. Qilu Petrochemical, the pillar of Linzi, became lifeless. The main urban area of Linzi District began to develop eastward and northward. The east is close to the Qingzhou border, and the north is a vast rural area, lacking supporting resources.

3. The retrogression of culture and education

Culturally, Linzi District, as the ancient capital of Qi, has a unique advantage in Qi culture, but Linzi has not made full use of this. On the contrary, its fame benefits from Qilu Petrochemical. In education, many excellent enterprise middle schools have closed down one after another, and many competitive social middle schools have been cancelled because of the reorganization of Linzi Middle School. There are only two middle schools in Linzi District, Zibo No.7 Middle School and Linzi Middle School. Without competition, we naturally fall behind. Unfortunately, Shandong Vocational College of Chemical Industry, the only university in Linzi District, was also given to Weifang.
