“…Jiang et al (2013) state that shipyard competitiveness is often assessed based on internal factors, such as costs. However, since shipbuilding is exposed to general market conditions and governmental interference, the authors introduce profit rate as a means of measuring competitiveness, and thus account for both internal and external factors.…”

“…We inflate prices to 2014 values by using the US consumer price index (CPI). Although the USA is not a major player in either shipping or shipbuilding, its domestic inflation measure appears to be the most widely used to obtain real prices in similar studies (Jiang et al, 2013;Akram, 2009;Lizardo and Mollick, 2010). We remove observations with missing data for at least one of our variables.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of shipyard and shipowner heterogeneity on the price formation for individual newbuilding contracts. Design/methodology/approach The model controls for the shipbuilding market cycle, input costs, firm size, yard experience and contract-specific variables and captures the impact of yard and owner heterogeneity in fixed-effects regressions. The data sample contains contract information on 3,759 tankers, bulkers and container vessels constructed at 77 shipyards between 1990 and 2014. Findings Although the newbuilding price benchmarks (market conditions) and gross domestic product per capita (salary costs) are influential covariates, the main conclusion is that shipyards and, particularly, shipowners play an influential role on the US$ per Compensated Gross Tonnage price level in individual contracts. Originality/value The paper represents the first study of the impact of buyer and seller heterogeneity at the micro level in the shipbuilding market.

“…Zhang Jiaqing (2008) used IMS, TC and RCA to calculate and compare the relevant indexes of the international competitiveness of the four distilleries, and give a more complete orientation to the international competitiveness of China's liquor industry [13] . Ye Ying (2009) mainly used RCA to compare the international competitiveness of wine industry in China, France, Italy, West and Macao [14] . (2013) through the construction of the international competitiveness of the wine industry evaluation index system, combined with gray correlation and ideal solution from four levels of China and nine trade power of the wine industry international competitiveness of a comparative analysis, the results show that: China's wine industry has an advantage in terms of its competitiveness, at a disadvantage in terms of competitiveness and competitiveness, and at the forefront of its competitiveness [15] .…”

Abstract. At present, there are many researches on the competitiveness of China's manufacturing industry, but there are few researches on the competitiveness of China's beverage industry, especially the inter-provincial competitiveness. Based on researches into domestic and foreign competitiveness theories, this paper analyzes the current development of China's beverage manufacturing industry, summarizes the researches into competitiveness of the beverage industry and combines the "diamond theory" to study the inter-provincial competitiveness of China's beverage competitiveness in different regions. Therefore, it is necessary to combine the actual situation to design an index system related to the system, find factors influencing the competitiveness, propose the advantages of competitiveness and the gap, and then propose measures and suggestions to improve the competitiveness.

“…Shipbuilding industry and its associated upstream and downstream industries stretch across the secondary and tertiary industry. It is involved in various kinds of industrial sectors, which have a strong impetus to the development of its upstream and downstream industries [7]. It is a challenge for the shipbuilding industry to maintain a leading position under the circumstances of slow recovery of the world economy and slowdown of the domestic economic growth [8].…”

Based on empirical evidence from Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and Circum-Bohai-Sea region, this study applies the Input-Output (I-O) model and ArcGIS to analyze the interdependence and its dynamic evolution of the shipbuilding industry. In order to study the change cause of shipbuilding industrial structure, we decompose the I-O model to obtain the influential factors including domestic final demand, overseas export demand, intermediate input, intermediate demand import and final demand import. The results indicate that (1) the shipbuilding industry has a significant interdependence, which has showed the characteristics of high integration and interaction. Among the three different regions, the degree of interdependence of the Yangtze River Delta is most significant, followed by the Pearl River Delta and the Circum-Bohai region. (2) The interaction and integration of the shipbuilding industry have the trend of synchronous development. From the initial S-shapes of coastal distribution, the interaction gradually expands to inland cities radially. (3) The dependence of the shipbuilding industry has reduced but the self-supporting effect continuously strengthened, and industrialization is accelerating, which indicates the shipbuilding industry will further promote the optimization of industrial structure. (4) Shipbuilding industry has been expanding a lot, the main causes of changes in industrial structure are different, and the effect of intermediate inputs change plays a significant role in the Yangtze River Delta. In the Pearl River Delta, it is the changes effect of foreign export demand that counts. However, it is the effect of the final demand that makes contribution to the industrial structure change in Circum-Bohai-Sea region.
