We investigate the technological positions of firms in the Chinese robotics industry, which has been rapidly growing in recent years. Using patent information for technological fields that firms focus on, firstly, we show that the technological positions of Chinese firms have been getting close to that of a Japanese first-mover firm in the same industry. Secondly, we examine the characteristics of the technological positions of Chinese firms and show that specialization consists of technologies which realize the basic functions of robots and those which improve the sophistication of products. Specialization generally means a strength rooting in narrower technological fields, but it is established as an expansive structure that straddles various technological fields. Therefore, to evaluate the strength of each firm, it is necessary to compare the commonalities and differences of technological positions.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"339 - 353"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46903744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigate how firms’ revenues, sales and productivity are affected by payments of bribes to obtain electricity connections. We use ordinary least squares (OLS), quantile and instrumental variable (IV) quantile regression analysis. OLS estimates reveal a negative effect on sales and productivity and a positive impact on profitability, while quantile regression suggests a negative effect on sales across all quantiles and a positive effect on productivity at the lower quantile. Since this research shows that bribery may negatively influence productivity, it informs shareholders that bribery may be detrimental to their long-term benefits.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":"21 1","pages":"239 - 261"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45049243","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ‘spectrum of responses’ represents an emerging structure that decision-makers have created and implanted, to help control the unpredictable nature of the pandemic. From shut down to lock down, from time and location-based unlocking, and back to full release, local and national communities alike have struggled – and some have succeeded – in their responses to Covid’s epidemiological impacts. Every state, every individual has been propelled back and forth along this spectrum, and the spectrum itself has been swiftly made, and overhauled by governments attempting to stay one step ahead of the spread, in lockstep with the swiftest developments in immunology and virology yet seen this century. But the spectrum cannot capture everything, including the tremendous economic and social impacts that Covid has had on societies, and indeed the most appropriate steps to take next.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"225 - 233"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42495359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A gravity model was formulated to find the determinants of China’s agricultural exports. This model uses two measures of distance: Model 1A uses the great-circle measure of distance and Model 1B uses the existing real distance used between China and its trade partners. The determinants of both models are then used to simulate China’s pre-CPEC export potential in agricultural products. The results of Model 1B are then simulated, using the proposed real distance values to calculate China’s post-CPEC agricultural export potential. The findings for pre-CPEC exports show that a strong potential for agricultural exports exists for African, Middle Eastern, and other countries. The findings for post-CPEC trade show that there will be a tremendous increase in the export potential for African and Middle Eastern countries that can be attributed to BRI.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":"21 1","pages":"263 - 280"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45734220","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results indicate that the host country’s economic development and the China-host country trade agreements positively influence Chinese technology investments, while the home economic growth of China might hinder them. These findings suggest a market-seeking motivation rather than the traditional resource-seeking one, whereas the institutional and cultural distance seems not deter Chinese technology investment into the region. Our findings suggest that Chinese OFDI toward Latin America is strongly driven by state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and thanks to the support of their government, maybe less concerned by the host country's institutional environment.

However, research on vegetative carbon sequestration in China remains preliminary. In this study, we calculated the total carbon sequestration of terrestrial vegetation and that of different vegetation types in China from 2001–2019 using satellite data. Total vegetative carbon sequestration slowly increased but its increase was significantly lower than that of carbon emissions over the same period. Provinces with the strongest carbon sequestration capacity were mainly distributed in the south, whereas those with the lowest capacity were mainly in the west of Heihe-Tengchong Line. Woody grassland achieved the largest amount of carbon sequestration and grassland experienced the fastest growth. As sequestration ability varies by vegetation type and region, we suggest adopting a holistic regional approach that optimizes local vegetation growth environments, improves ecological compensation protection mechanisms (especially in urban areas) and develops other carbon sequestration pathways.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"109 - 124"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46067884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The emphasis is placed on entrepreneurial orientation, rather than statutory regulations and governmental invention, to meet the desired objectives of CPEC. The results indicate that innovativeness, pro-activeness and risk-taking significantly facilitate SMEs towards CPEC while autonomy and competitive aggressiveness do not influence the perception of top managers/owners about CPEC.

Economic policy uncertainty is captured by the World Uncertainty Indices (WUI). We firstly utilize the panel unit root tests with cross-sectional dependence to confirm the stationarity of the series. Secondly, we run various estimation techniques, such as fixed-effects, random-effects, and feasible generalized least squares. The results indicate that income is positively related to energy demand. However, a higher energy price decreases energy consumption, and the WUI is also negatively associated with energy consumption. These findings are robust to exclude the oil-exporter and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries from the panel dataset. Finally, the Machado-Santos Silva quantile regression estimations show that the related effects of the income, energy price and the WUI on energy demand are valid at the different quantiles.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"23 - 38"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47168741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
