| Manufacturing is an engine of China’s economy. However, the problems of high energy consumption, high pollution, low efficiency and low-end remain unresolved. So how to achieve the transformation and upgrade of the manufacturing become an important issue. As an important intermediate production of the manufacturing, producer services is the key to solve this problem, which can increase the degree of roundabout manufacturing production, increase the knowledge content in manufacturing, reduce the transaction costs of manufacturing, improve manufacturing’s efficiency, enhance the competitiveness of the manufacturing, and ultimately promote the transformation and upgrade of the manufacturing. In turn, the transformation and upgrade of manufacturing demand producer services, which can attract producer services’ agglomeration, increase the competition of producer services, promote producer services’ s upgrade.Based on the above logic, this paper is about theoretical research and empirical analysis of interactive effects between producer services’ agglomeration and manufacturing with industry value chain theory, econometrics, economic systems theory and new economic geography theory. Firstly, this paper measure the degree of producer services’ agglomeration with Krugman concentration index.Manufacturing’s transformation and upgrade is made up of efficiency upgrade,structure upgrade,and transformation of production,which compound manufacturing’s transformation and upgrade’s aggregative indicator by using principal component analysis.Then this paper analyzes the degree of matching between producer services’ agglomeration and manufacturing’s transformation and upgrade’s aggregative indicator. Then based on the perspective of specialized division of labor and industry associations,this paper analyze the interaction mechanism of producer services’ agglomeration and manufacturing’s transformation and upgrade, and put forward some relevant hypothesis.Finaly,based on theoretical analysis this paper establish some econometric model to test the hypotheses above and draw relevant conclusions.The main conclusions are as follows:(1)There is obvious regional differentiation in provinces of producer services’ agglomeration,which is positively correlated to the level of economy.And the overall trend has stabilized after the first rise.(2)Producer services’ agglomeration deepened the specialization in manufacturing,improve manufacturing productivity,promote the structure of manufacturing,improve energy efficiency and reduce pollution.(3)The increase demand for producer services attracted the producer services gathering,and manufacturing’s transformation and upgrade’s aggregative indicator is positively correlated to producer services’ agglomeration.(4)The level of urbanization, knowledge spillover effect, local protectionism, capital investment and other factors play important roles in the interactive system of producer services agglomeration and manufacturing’ transformation and upgrading. |
