’Internet of Things (loT)’and its applications have become China’s’five emerging strategic industries’, and has been written into the ’Government work report’. In recent years, governments of all levels in China have paid high attention to develop and support industries related to loT. loT is becoming more and more important and lead the industrial development direction in China.Despite the size of the industry as a whole grew very rapidly (a large number of loT companies emerge in recent years), loT industry in China still faces many challenges:lack of demand, no clear business model, and the supporting policies and regulations are not perfect, and so on.What factors are the key factors influencing the development of China’s Internet of things? Among these key elements, how they interact and influence? This article combined three research method:telephone survey, and case studies, impeded attempts to filter and digging up these key factors, and analysis of its mechanism, to "reflect the status quo" and "identify the problem","analysis of causes","discovery responses" research purposes.There’s a long history of researches on innovation diffusion of emerging technologies. Past scholars from different area (e.g. economic, social, environment) interpret the problem from different angles, and collected abundant conclusions. This article based on the previous research:the "Internet of things technology diffusion" question comes down to "features the technology itself","macroeconomic environment" and "supply chain","internal factors" four categories, respectively, were examined.This article found,"technology useful sexual", and "technology easy sexual", and "technology implementation cost", and "Government boot", and "legal regulations sound degree", and "real networking industry mature degrees" six a factors for currently China real networking development of key factors; supply chain area of factors on technology of impeded degree in all application area differences larger; enterprise internal factors relative does not too important.From case studies, this article found the Government in resource integration for Internet of things technology implementation often play a very crucial role. At the same time, some easy to neglect hindering factors (such as the degree of the users on the Internet of things technology absorption, social norms, etc) tend to play an unexpected role, also deserve attention. This study showed that overall development of Internet industry in our country in the quick start. Businesses, Governments and other parties to increase their Internet development obstacle factors analysis and understanding, helped formulate correct strategies to accelerate the more rapid and healthy development of China’s Internet of things industry.There exists many shortcomings in this paper, but can help to find China’s Internet-related research and reference."China’s Internet of things hindering factors" this proposition is, more valuable for future research was needed.
