数字经济、研发创新与文化产业高质量发展

Digital Economy, R&D and the High-quality Development of Cultural Industry

数字经济及其技术应用已经成为挖掘我国文化产业发展潜力的重要驱动力量,通过改变我国文化产业原有的创新业态,促进文化产业的高质量发展。在论述并总结数字经济与研发创新协同促进文化产业高质量发展的传导途径和空间溢出效应的理论基础上,对数字经济影响文化产业高质量发展水平及其空间效应进行全面的计量分析,研究结果发现:数字经济和研发创新促进文化产业高质量发展的协同效应显著存在;数字经济会显著提升文化产业高质量发展水平,且这种正向影响具有显著的空间溢出特征。“十四五”时期,应不断促进数字经济与研发创新之间的协同发展,强化区域间合作,实现文化产业供需的良性循环,为我国文化产业的发展注入新的活力。

The digital economy has profoundly and extensively transformed the original innovation and development format of China s cultural industry through digital media,and promoted its high-quality development.With the continuous expansion of the Chinese government s investment in cultural industry,the cultural industry has gradually become a new strategic growth point.The ever-deepening characteristics of internet development in the economy and society and the improving level of digital information technology have become an important driving force for tapping the development potential of the cultural industry.The existing literatures have studied that the continuous introduction of digital technology in the R&D process of the cultural industry can greatly promote its development.Some domestic scholars have also used TFP to measure the development of the cultural industry or its sub-industries.Empirical studies to evaluate the effect of digital economy on the high-quality development of China s cultural industry is extremely lacking,and there are only a handful of empirical tests on its effect and path.To fill this gap,at the theoretical level,this paper sorts out and summarizes the digital economy and the transmission channels and spatial spillover mechanisms of the digital economy and its synergy with R&D to promote the high-quality development of the cultural industry.Empirically,it calculates the high-quality development level and digital economy development index is used to measure the development level of the cultural industry and the digital economy in each province.Based on the calculation result,a comprehensive quantitative analysis of the spatial effect of the digital economy on the high-quality development level of the cultural industry is conducted.The results suggest that the development of the digital economy will significantly and positively affect the high-quality development level of the cultural industry from the provincial level,which has significant spatial spillover characteristics.In addition,the synergy effect of digital economy and R&D is significant.The synergistic effect has the most obvious role in promoting the high-quality development of the cultural industry in Eastern China.These results are robust after a series of robustness checks.This paper emphasizes the importance of digital economy to promote the high-quality development of the cultural industry.It also provides corresponding countermeasures and suggestions for deepening the reform of the cultural system and accelerating the high-quality development of the cultural industry during the“14th Five-Year Plan”period,and provides policy basis for promoting the formation of a new pattern of the cultural industry at the provincial level.
