Industrial Division of Work and Cooperation in the Yangtze River Economic Belt

Abstract

In the process of industrial development in the Yangtze River Economic Belt, industrial competition is the normal, but not all of regional economic development. The win-win result can be achieved only by cooperating in competition and competing in cooperation. Through the cooperation and division of work, the member regions of the Yangtze River Economic Belt will build their own advantageous industries and products into specialized production, and realize the complementary advantages through the unified market. The production cost will be reduced to result in significant economic benefits. In recent years, the research on the Yangtze River Economic Belt has attracted extensive attention of the academic community, and the research literatures have emerged increasingly. Zhao Lin et al. (2013), Xu Changle (2014), Li Xuesong et al. (2015) and Zou Lin (2015) respectively studied the development of Yangtze River Economic Belt from different perspectives. On the basis of relevant research, it is supposed to make a statistical description and analysis of the industrial division of work in the Yangtze River Economic Belt over a long time span.
