He stressed that Qingdao should learn from Shanghai's efforts and innovative approaches to further expand opening-up, accelerate the construction of a high-quality, efficient, dynamic and competitive industrial system in Qingdao, and build Qingdao into a modern service center in northern China.
Wang said that during this trip Qingdao officials should make a special effort to investigate and study Shanghai's open and inclusive urban development concept, talent policy and modern urban governance as well as find cooperation opportunities for the two cities in the modern service sector.
