Evolution characteristics of the Yangtze River Delta city network from the perspective of cultural and creative enterprises

运用社会网络与位序-规模法分析长江三角洲地区16市上市类文化创意企业的母-子公司数据信息,揭示文化创意企业集聚视角的长三角城市网络结构及其演变特征.研究发现:(1)2005~2015年,长三角地区文化创意企业上市公司总部数量逐年增加,公司总部多设立于上海、杭州、苏州以及南京4地;(2)传媒类和软件及计算机类企业多分布于传统区域,设计咨询类企业生产网络中,存在传统非核心城市跃升为区域核心城市的现象;(3)上市公司生产网络结构逐渐复杂,多中心及新核心相继出现,且生产网络中城市位序有变动趋势,文化创意产业空间动态正形塑城市体系结构.为此,建议长三角文化创意企业发展中应加强企业母子间的联系强度,促进城市创意流动网络化,有望推进长三角创意源-流形塑创意城市群新体系.

This paper provides an analysis for the parent-subsidiary data collected from the listed cultural and creative enterprises in 16 cities in the Yangtze River Delta.The social network method and the rank-size rule are adopted in this analytical work.The evolution characteristics are explored from the perspective of cultural and creative enterprise clusters based on the network structure of cities in the Yangtze River Delta.The research indicates that:(1)From year 2005 to 2015,the number of headquarters of listed cultural and creative companies in the designated areas has increased steadily.Headquarters were mainly established in Shanghai,Hangzhou,Suzhou and Nanjing;(2)Media enterprises,software and computer-related enterprises were mostly located in traditional areas.In the production network concerning design and consultation enterprises,traditional non-core cities have gradually risen to regional core cities;(3)The structure of the production network of listed companies has grown increasingly sophisticated.Meanwhile,the multi-center pattern and new cores have emerged in succession and the city rank within the production network also projected a changing trend.Spatial dynamics of the cultural and creative industry is shaping the architecture of the cities.For these reasons,it is recommended that cultural and creative enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta should reinforce the parent-subsidiary connections and promote the networking of intercity creativity flows.Hopefully,such efforts would promote the new system of creative urban agglomerations shaped by the source-flow creativity pattern in the Yangtze River Delta.
