The "Internet+" concept has stimulated agricultural revenue, with a total of 27,000 rural e-sellers contributing a transaction value of 13.5 billion yuan (2 billion U.S. dollars), double previous years. Online sales of rice, beans and side crops exceeded 3 billion yuan, said Lu.
More than 3,000 hi-tech companies were registered in the province last year, and the total number of hi-tech companies with annual revenue of more than 5 million yuan exceeded 1,000.
Figures of Liaoning have not been released yet, but the province is expected to see an economic rebound in 2017, compared with negative growth in 2016.
In the first three quarters, the Liaoning economy contracted by 2.2 percent, the only provincial area with negative growth in the period. But the annual fiscal revenue in 2016 turned from contraction to growth, up 3.4 percent year on year to nearly 220 billion yuan.
For decades, northeast China relied on heavy and chemical industries, energy resources, raw materials and a large number of state-owned enterprises before its economic growth model hit the buffers. This double-digit GDP growth plummeted as capacity was slashed in high-polluting industries, the region's lifeblood.
According to the National Development and Reform Commission, the region's economy grew 2.2 percent in the first half of 2016, much lower than the 7.6 percent, 7.8 percent and 8 percent for the east, central and western regions of the country.
