Concentration of production improved. Output of China's top ten brands of tires, including Shanghai Shanghai (shăng`hī`, shäng`hī`), city (1994 est. pop. 12,980,000), in, but independent of, Jiangsu prov., E China, on the Huangpu (Whangpoo) River where it flows into the Chang (Yangtze) estuary. tires and Triangle tires, was 51.87 million last year, and output of the nine big tire Sino-foreign joint ventures including Michelin reached 60.39 million.
