Research On The New Economic Space Characteristics Of Yangtze River Delta Based On B2B E-commerce

The Internet is profoundly affecting the way in which China's social economy is organized.The continuous transformation of the economic development model has also changed the spatial structure and evolutionary trends of urban areas.In recent ten years,with the rapid rise of the Internet economy represented by e-commerces there has been fierce competition and cooperation between the traditional economy and the new economy,making the spatial pattern of the informatization process outlined in China gradually clear,the spatial pattern of regional economy has been formed.The Yangtze River Delta is the region with the highest level of development and agglomeration of e-commerce in China.The appearance of the emerging function of e-commerce not only promoted the vigorous development of the new Internet economy in China,but also provided a new perspective and practical method for the current study of the regional spatial pattern.At the same time,as an important global urban area of China,the Yangtze River Delta Region has been the focus of regional research on its regional spatial pattern,and has formed a systematic and rich argument under long-term and sustained research,which is conducive to the comparison of differences and dimilarities between New Economic Space Patterns and Traditional Patterns of the Yangtze River Delta.Based on the above background analysis,it is deemed necessary to focus on identifying the spatial characteristics of the new economy in the Yangtze River Delta Region.Considering that B2B e-commerce is the main constitute of the domestic e-commerce,and the coverage of product categories is much larger than that of B2C and C2C e-commerce,the article takes the "Great Yangtze River Delta"(including Jiangsu,Zhejiang,Shanghai and Anhui)as the research scope,and selects B2B enterprise on Alibaba's website as the data resource to analyze the spatial distribution and network connection characteristics of the Yangtze River Delta's new economy from two aspects:the spatial distribution characteristics of e-commerce companies and the characteristics of internal management links.In the study of the spatial distribution characteristics of e-commerce companies,it focuses on the distribution of different spatial units,the overall agglomeration characteristics of enterprises,and the clustering characteristics of sub-product types.In the research of internal business contact characteristics,the network structure of e-commerce companies,such as the overall contact characteristics among cities,multi-center features,and the contact characteristics of sub-product types,is discussed,and the basis for these spatial representations is further analyzed.Based on the quantitative analysis of the above two parts,it found that the spatial pattern of the Yangtze River Delta's new economy presents three main characteristics:First,the Yangtze River Delta's e-commerce economic space generally exhibits a highly uneven and banded agglomeration feature.Shanghai-Yiwu and Wenzhou-Taizhou agglomeration belt constitutes the main space for the development of e-commerce in the Yangtze River Delta,which is different from the long-term traditional description of the industrial space pattern of Yangtze River Delta.The emergence of this huge mixed economic space shows the characteristics of interaction between the traditional economy and the Internet economy.This upgrade process through the use of the Internet is unevenly distributed in the Yangtze River Delta.The cities of Shanghai-Nanjing Online characterized by "big industry" and"heavy industry" have weakened their position in the new economic structure,and the agglomeration of Shanghai-Jingyi has become the core area of the new economic development in Yangtze River Delta.Secondly,the southern wing of the Yangtze River Delta has formed a more powerful logistics network than the North Wing,forming a functional network structure system that is different from the physical space.A large amount of city interaction occurred in the space formed by Jinyi District,Wentai District,Hangzhou,and Shanghai.In the past,the network structure of "North Strong and South Weak" did not appear.The emergence of the "South strong and North Weak" pattern in the e-commerce enterprise network shows the strengthening of the functional links between towns and cities in Zhejiang,which verifies the markedly different network characteristics of the South Wing compared to the North Wing,and also reflects the physical associations of the future urban networks.Functional associations may have a tendency to separate.Finally,relying on the new Internet economy represented by this emerging function of e-commerce,the distinctive features of urban-rural functional links within the Yangtze River Delta have become increasingly prominent.The e-commerce enterprise network has formed a distinctly different urban system than traditional research,Yiwu and Wenzhou have taken the place of Nanjing and Hangzhou to be the regional central cities,and Jinhua,Cangnan,Changshu,Nantong etc.have also greatly improved their centrality in the network.The core status of these cities in the e-commerce network,the ability to go beyond their own location,and the ability to gather elements at the administrative level are true reflections of the distinctive development of the South Wing and the link between the new Internet economy and accelerated urban features.It can be seen that under this trend,a tighter and more solid network of labor divisions will be formed between the towns of the Yangtze River Delta,further weakening and flattening the previously distinctly graded urban system,and creating the regional spatial structures with more features.The whole thesis contains about 50 000 words,55 pictures and charts.
