| Since the reform and opening up,thanks to the dual advantages of population and resource dividends,China has achieved rapid connection with the global value chain system and has become a "world factory" and has achieved "the miracle of exports"that attracts worldwide attention.However,an indisputable fact is that China is a big trading nation,but "big but not strong"(Li Kunwang et al.,2014),Although China’s exports have a large trade surplus,because Chinese manufacturing mostly completes the final link of product production through assembly and processing,not all or even most of China’s exports are created by China(Lamy,2010).This not only resulted in a weak real benefit from China’s exports,but also led to a large amount of emissions,resulting in China becoming a "stricken area" in which developed countries transferred energy and carbon emissions for many years(Peters et al.,2008;Peng Shuijun et al.,2015).Especially after the financial crisis,with the sluggish external demand,strengthened resource and environmental constraints,and rising factor costs,the issue of sustainable trade development has become increasingly prominent,and the dilemma of changing "big but not strong" has become increasingly pressing.In this regard,although some scholars have tried to shift from the productivity paradox(Li Chunding,2010),value-added trade(Koopman et al.,2012),the rate of increase traps(Liu Qiren and Huang Jianzhong,2015)and the transition to service(Cheng Dazhong and Cheng Zhuo,2015)and other perspectives have been expanded,few scholars have explored the issue of transformation and upgrading of "manufacturing powers" in light of the inter-regional division of labor.As the largest developing country in the world,China not only has a huge market,but also has a vast land area.The region also has a distinctive endowment structure and development level.Making full use of the advantages of inter-regional endowments to conduct division of labor and cooperation can not only extend the domestic value chain of manufacturing in China,promote value appreciation(Liu Zhisheng,2009),but also improve the efficiency of domestic resource use and promote the low-carbon transformation of manufacturing in China.However,it should not be overlooked that subject to administrative centralization and fiscal decentralization,there is a relatively serious market segmentation among domestic regions(Zhang Shaojun,2013),Then,under the circumstances where the advantages of big countries coexist with market segmentation,how can we use the interregional division of labor to extend the domestic production links of global value chains and effectively promote the transformation of China from a "manufacturing power" to a"manufacturing powerhouse?"In order to answer this question,it is first necessary to objectively understand the degree of market integration between different regions.Through post-retrospective measurement methods,this paper effectively overcomes the "false statistics" in trade transactions based on the perspective of value-added trade,and objectively reveals the characteristics of interregional division of labor and integration in different regions and sectors under the background of "seeing non-income".On this basis,we further extended the division of labor across the export chain.Based on the rising value of manufacturing exports,service-oriented transformation,and low-carbon transition,we used the MRIO model to overcome the assumption of homogeneity of technology to construct the open-subject area for the first time.The quantified framework of the influence of the division of labor on the transformation and upgrading of China’s manufacturing exports focused on the analysis of the influence and role of the interregional value chain on the transformation and upgrading of China’s manufacturing exports,complementing and enriching people’s understanding of the regional division of labor and exports of Chinese manufacturing industries..In the organizational structure,this article has a total of 7 chapters.The first chapter is the introduction.The second chapter is the literature review.The next chapter consists of four chapters(Chapter 3 to Chapter 6).The last chapter(Chapter 7)is the summary and discussion of the research results,policy suggestion.Chapter 3 uses the Novy(2013)model to measure the trade costs faced by the interregional value chain extension based on the perspective of value added trade.research shows.First of all,unlike previous studies,this paper finds that with the pressure of external demand after WTO accession,the interregional trade costs in China are declining,both at the overall level and at the regional level.Due to the difficulty in tracing the source of the value of traditional output,the conclusions of the rising trade costs that have been studied are overestimated.Second,compared to the rapidly declining foreign trade costs,the cost of domestic trade in China declined more slowly.This has led to more influx of the domestic market in the global market during the division of labor.Thirdly,unlike the lowest manufacturing industry in the cost of foreign trade,the lowest primary product in the interregional trade costs shows that there is a sign of low-end development in the interregional market integration.Finally,further use of bilateral decomposition,this paper finds that due to geographical location,industrial isomorphism and the policy of multiple disadvantages,the eastern coast more toward the international division of labor.Therefore,in the future,interregional market integration will not only need to speed up infrastructure construction,strengthen the transformation of government functions,but also pay attention to the division of labor between the eastern coast and other regions in order to further promote the reduction of interregional trade costs.In Chapter 4,the effect of interregional value chains on the rising value of manufacturing exports was measured.The results show that,unlike the "export capture"theory,the domestic value-added ratio in China’s manufacturing exports did not fall sharply with the rapid expansion of exports;thanks to the extension of the interregional value chain after China’s accession to the WTO,the domestic value of exports The declining trend of the value-added rate has obviously slowed down;this feature is still established even when regional and departmental differences are further considered;therefore,nowhere is the perspective of the overall,regional,or sectoral perspectives.The interregional value chain has become an inhibitor of export profits.An important tool for rapid decline and boosting value.Further use of structural decomposition analysis,this paper finds that compared with the export demand,regional interregional association of value-added rate of change more prominent impact;through the interaction with the downstream areas,the Northwest and Beijing-Tianjin region has become to promote interregional increase The important force for increasing the value rate.The eastern coast has gradually become a "break point" that hinders the integration of the interregional value chains.Therefore,excessive accusations that export capture can hardly change the low-value fact of China’s exports and further strengthen internal integration,especially the interregional ties between the eastern coast and other downstream areas,can make better use of the interregional value chain to promote value appreciation.Chapter 5 analyzes the impact of interregional value chains on the service-oriented transformation of manufacturing exports.The results of the study show that,first,from 1997 to 2007,inputs for primary products,manufactured goods and services in the interregional value chain showed changes of 10.43%,-1.07%and-23.76%,respectively.Interregional value chains failed to promote the service-oriented transformation of China’s manufacturing exports due to the continuous decline in investment in services.Second,the decline in service inputs in the interregional value chains lies mainly in the absence of division of labor in the eastern coastal areas.As the most developed region in the service industry,the long-term supply on the eastern coast is low and the demand is high.Therefore,it is difficult to promote the transformation and upgrading of China’s manufacturing exports because of the division of labor away from the advantages of endowments.Finally,based on the decomposition of bilateral embedding paths,this paper finds that the insufficient supply of services in the eastern coastal areas is only the representation of division of labor.Market segmentation among regions is the deep reason that causes the eastern coastal areas to break away from the domestic market and over-embed the global value chains.Therefore,to reduce the division of labor barriers in the region and to strengthen the supply of domestic services by the eastern coast can we truly promote the service-oriented transformation and upgrading of Chinese-made goods.Chapter 6 analyzes the impact of interregional value chains on low-carbon transformation of manufacturing exports.The results showed that because the interregional value-added rate showed a "V" fluctuation that first decreased and then rose,the interregional environmental costs showed "L" fluctuations that first fell and then rose slightly,so the extension of the interregional value chain failed to drive environmental costs.The rapid decline.Using the exponential decomposition analysis further,this paper finds that the phased fluctuations in the correlation of technology and value constitute the main reasons for the low-carbon development of the manufacturing industry and the divergence of the regional division of labor.Before China’s accession to the WTO,despite the fact that interregional trade costs are high and the value-reduction effect of emission reduction is difficult to achieve,benefiting from the technological linkage between coastal areas and the downstream regions,interregional environmental costs can still achieve rapid decline.After China’s accession to the WTO,with the increase in the degree of participation in inter-provincial division of labor in inland areas,the role of value-related emission reductions has been highlighted.However,due to the division of labor in the coastal areas under the market segmentation and the lagging production technology in inland areas,the technology-related increase effect has been gradually enlarged,and the decreasing trend of the interregional environmental costs has gradually reversed.Therefore,to further strengthen the integration of the domestic market,especially in the coastal areas and the downstream areas of technology,can make full use of the inter-regional division of labor to promote the low-carbon development of China’s manufacturing exports. |
