Wucheng county of Dezhou in East China's Shandong province is revered as a historical city, a pearl along the Grand Canal, a land resonating with ancient melodies, and a cradle of scholarly excellence. 

Nowadays, Wucheng shines with a vibrant private economy and distinct industrial prowess. It has nurtured three hallmark industries – automotive components, fiberglass central air conditioning, and the meticulous processing of agricultural and related products. The county has received over 20 national honorary titles, such as China's first fiberglass county, China's hub for automotive components, China's national bastion of blanket production, the hometown of Chinese chili peppers, and the hometown of Chinese edible fungi.
