Abstract

Based on the big data of population migration and information database of industrial and commercial enterprises, this paper constructs two-directional weighted networks of inter-city population flow and enterprise investment linkage; using 286 cities and 81,510 city pair linkage data nationwide, we empirically analyze the influence of inter-city investment linkage on population flow and its mechanism of action. Study indicated: The network of population flow and the network of investment linkages are highly coupled: cities with high development levels dominate the direction of population and capital flow; the investment linkage between cities has a significant positive impact on population flow, and there are differences in the characteristics of factor flow between cities of different levels and different city clusters; in the mechanism of the effect of inter-city investment linkage on population flow, economic efficiency play a mediating role, while industrial structure plays a regulating role. The findings of this paper provide certain policy references for optimizing the regional economic layout and promoting the rational movement and efficient agglomeration of population and capital.
