Will Jinan people look down on Laiwu, which has just merged into Jinan?

No, and Laiwu has a high GDP. Many people will say that Jinan merged with Laiwu to look good, and it is mainly the GDP of Laiwu. It is also said that Jinan merged shandong energy and Yankuang Group to be closer to Qingdao in terms of economic aggregate, and the new Shandong Energy Group headquarters is located in Jinan. In addition, hengfeng bank's headquarters moved from Yantai to Jinan, and so on, and I feel there is nothing wrong with Jinan.

Laiwu's economy is not weak, and the total GDP is small because the area of Laiwu is the smallest among all prefecture-level cities in Shandong, only 2,246.33 square kilometers, and the population is only about 1.35 million, so the overall scale is smaller. On a per capita basis, Laiwu's performance is actually quite good, and it is in the middle of Shandong 17 prefecture-level cities. The merger of Jinan and Laiwu can be said to be a win-win choice for strong alliance.

Although Laiwu itself has an industrial base, it has relied heavily on Laigang in history. After the merger, all the traditional industries in Jinan will be transferred to Laiwu. After the merger, Laiwu became the biological son of Jinan. The road traffic, medical care, household registration and other things that Jinan originally reserved are no longer problems.
