    • 1976, John Israel, Donald W. Klein, Rebels and Bureaucrats: China's December 9ers[2], University of California Press, →ISBN, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 148:
      Working out of their office in Liaocheng, they visited the villages where they tried to win over local leadership and mobilize the masses.
    • 2017 October 20, “Chinese city confirms Xinfa aluminum capacity cut”, in Reuters[3], archived from the original on 14 December 2018, Environment:
      Xinfa Group, one of China’s top aluminum producers, will have to close 381,900 tonnes per year of smelting capacity this winter, its home city of Liaocheng confirmed on Friday.
      Xinfa must shut 30 percent of its pots in Liaocheng, one of 28 northern Chinese cities ordered to impose restrictions on industrial output this winter to combat smog, from Nov. 15 to March 15, 2018, according to a document published on the Liaocheng government website.
      A draft of the document circulating earlier this week contained the same number for the Xinfa cut and Liaocheng has now finalised its restrictions for the heating season.
      Xinfa’s smelting capacity in Liaocheng, in the eastern Shandong province, was listed as 1.58 million tonnes per year, although it also has capacity in Xinjiang that will not be subject to winter cutbacks.
