Some very nice mushroom products that you produce in China. And this is really unique, for example, to be exported in other countries and also transfer the technology of producing probably these products in Central European countries. So there are really great opportunities for commerce, for increasing commerce between China and the Central European countries.

During the meeting, strengthening sister-province cooperation was also a highlight. Shandong and Vojvodina Province of Serbia officially signed an agreement on friendly cooperative relationship. The event also had four exhibitions, including the Photography Exhibition of Central and Eastern European Countries and the Exhibition of Traditional Chinese Medicine, to showcase the customs and traditions of CEEC and promote Shandong's local culture and products.
