Mr.Jack replied:
First of all, there is no direct train from Xiamen or Wenzhou to Zibo. And, because of the long distance, taking a bus is not suggested.
You could take a flight from Xiamen to Jinan Airport firstly and then transfer to Zibo by train or bus quickly.

Mr.Alan replied:
It is worth to travel to Zhongshan.
If you want to go shopping, you can go to these places:
Zhongken Department Store, Holiday Square and Super Market
Trust-Mart.
As to nice food, you should try the local snacks. The black tea, dried rolls of bean-milk cream, mango, the mushroom glossy ganoderma and Tuckahoe of Wugui Mountain are favored by both locals and visitors.
You can stay in Zhongshan Guomao Hotel.
The best way to travel from zhongshan to Hk may be by Ferry. You can go to Zhongshan port to take Ferry to Hong Kong.

From HKIA to Puning, you can take shuttle bus from HKIA to Guangdong Provincial Bus Station and take bus to Puning at the station.
From Puning to HKIA,there is no direct bus to HKIA. You have to take bus to Guangzhou and then to HKIA. Puning Liusha Bus Station is available, it is where you arrived when come from Guangzhou. Good Luck!
