Since twentieth Century,with the development of productivity,the world resources have been properly configured and fully utilized under the background of economic globalization.The international division of labor model has changed from inter-industry specialization to intra-industry specialization to intra-product specialization.Today,the production of a product needs a number of enterprises from different countries and regions complete each responsible link.There is a general vertical division of labor within the product,which is the global value chain.With more and more countries involved,the global value chain division of labor has become the dominant form of the development of international division of labor.Due to the differences in resources,such as technology and human resources,there are serious differences between the country's comparative advantage and resource endowment,which lead to the different status of the industry in the global value chain.Since the reform and opening up,Chinese economic development rapidly.More than 30 years,China has gradually become a global manufacturing center,has a complete range of export commodities,enjoy the title of the "world manufacturing base".However,more and more scholars have seen that China's economic growth mode is still somewhat extensive,and the totle of "made in China" has been questioned.In recent twenty years,the global value chain division of labor has flourished,and the manufacturing sector in China has actively participated in the new international division of labor.For a long time,with abundant labor elements and cheap labor costs,China professional engaged in division system of global value chain in the labor intensive type links(such as processing and assembly).Although this allows China to quickly integrate into the international division of labor system,and accumulated a large number of trade surplus,but Chinese trade enterprises can only have a very limited amount of assembly and processing costs behind it.However,under the condition of the global production network,the traditional export scale and the trade condition do not reflect the situation of a country's trade income.Under the background of the global value chain division,which is characterized by the international division of production,the actual trade revenue of a country is covered up to a certain extent.With the European and American countries to promote the industrialization,a new round competition of the global manufacturing industry continues to intensify.In the other hand,other emerging economics are developing rapidly.Chinese manufacturing industry is facing a huge challenge.To change the present situation,it is necessary to confirm the current situation of our country's industry and its position in the global value chain.In this paper,qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis are used to analyze the upsteamness.First,from the overall situation,refining industry,import an export weighted angles to measure the upstreamness of China,Brazil,Mexico,India,Indonesia,South Korea,Russia and Turkey eight emerging market countries.We find that the upstreamness of Chinese manufacturing industryis higher than that of the other seven,but it is at a disadvantage in some industries.Besides,Some countries manufacturing industry is developing rapidly,and the growth of the upstreamness is huge.From the angle of global value chain length,we measure the upstreamness both domestic and international.And from the perspective of industrial structure,We make a comparison in the nation level.We discover that the industrial structure of Chinese manufacturing industry is similar with the developing countries in general,and there is a certain gap between the developed countries.In the end,we make regression analysis on the influencing factors of the upstreamness of Chinese manufacturing industry,and the results show that the upstreamness of Chinese manufacturing industry is positively related to labor productivity and labor input structure,and is negatively correlated with per capita capital,import trade and per capita wage.Based on the conclusion,this paper puts forward some relevant policy suggestions,in order to help our country to optimize the industrial structure of manufacturing industry,and to seek to achieve the rise in the global value chain.
