If Shandong moves to its provincial capital, who is expected to succeed Jinan?

I think it will be Qingdao. Because Qingdao is the largest city in Shandong and the second largest city in the north in the minds of many Internet people. As a sub-provincial city and a city with separate planning status, Qingdao’s future development cannot be limited. In 2019, Qingdao's GDP reached 1,174.131 billion yuan, which is higher than Jinan. Qingdao's climate is a temperate monsoon climate. Qingdao also has many tourist attractions and relatively developed transportation. Qingdao can be said to be the first choice after Jinan.
