    The Impact of Third-party Reviews Information Structure on Its Passing-along Intentions HU Chang-chun1, NING Chang-hui2
    HU Chang-chun1, NING Chang-hui2
    2017, 59(5): 1-9. 
    Abstract ( 190 )  
    Third-party Reviews(TPRs) are of great significance to the diffusion of new product information. Whether TPRs are effectively disseminated determines whether the new products can quickly occupy market. Based on Theory of Reasoned Action(TRA) and Technology Acceptance Model(TAM), this paper investigates the impact of three dimensions of TPRs(types, valences and consistency of valences between TPRs and Online Reviews(ORs) following TPRs) on Passing-along intentions(PAIs). The results show that: these dimensions have significant impact on consumers′ PAIs, while they have different effect intensities: the total effect of types of TPRs on PAIs is the strongest, and the total effect of consistency of valences between ORs and TPRs on PAIs is the weakest; the influence of recommendation format(mixing valences, consistency of valences between ORs and TPRs) of TPRs on PAIs is bigger than description format(total positive,contradiction of valences between ORs and TPRs) of TPRs.

    The Spillover Effect of Product Placement of Chinese Brands in Hollywood Movie
    LI Liang1,WANG Ping2,3,SONG Si-gen2
    2017, 59(5): 17-22. 
    Abstract ( 104 )  
    At present, more and more domestic brands hope to improve their product image and acceptance by placing in Hollywood movies. With the spillover effect of country image as the explanation mechanism, this paper constructs corresponding theory model to analyze the spillover effect of product placement of Chinese brands in Hollywood movie, finding that country image affects cognitive dissonance positively and affects plot connection negatively, cognitive dissonance affects brand attitude negatively, while plot connection affects brand attitude positively; cognitive dissonance and plot connection play a mediating role, and the impact of cognitive dissonance is significantly greater than that of plot connection; consumer ethnocentrism significantly adjusts the effect of cognitive dissonance on brand attitude, but not for the relationship between plot connection and brand attitude. Therefore, when related enterprises choose Hollywood movie for product placement, they′d better choose “foreign branding” brand name,strive to have a deep product placement, and choose the suitable brand communication by identifying the characteristics of target audience of films.

    Research on Pyramid Shareholding Structures and Ultimate Controller′s Tunneling Effect
    TANG Jian-rong,ZHU Ting-jiao
    2017, 59(5): 23-29. 
    Abstract ( 130 )  
    With the completion of nontradable shares reform, the ultimate controller′s encroachment on the interests of minority shareholders and listed companies shows a lot of different characteristics compared with the share structure before the reform. Based on balance panel data of 343 listed family companies which have been continuously operating during the Post-Non-Tradable Share Period of 2008-2014, the paper uses individual fixed effects regression model to study the relationship between ultimate control rights, cash flow right, the separation of two rights, equity balance, control layer and tunneling effect, finding the effects of various factors on the tunneling effect show significant differences in different family companies;tunneling effect is in significantly positive correlation with the proportion of control rights and the separation of two rights, while is in significantly negative correlation with cash flow right;the existence of outside shareholders can′t effectively curb the tunneling behavior, and low debt assets structure encourages the tunneling incentive. Therefore, it is necessary to construct the ownership structure with low control right and low cash flow right to avoid the tunneling behavior from the power source.

    The Real Estate Bubble Assessment on Ten Cities based on Combined Weighting
    SUN Bo1,LUO Zhi-kun2
    2017, 59(5): 42-48. 
    Abstract ( 80 )  
    Based on the real estate historical data of top ten cities of China in 2015, the paper selects six evaluation indexes related to real estate bubble to evaluate the real estate bubble in these ten cities by use of combined weighting method. The results show that Shenzhen, Shanghai, Beijing and Nanjing have much higher degree of bubble than national bubble level, but Chongqing and Lanzhou have lower bubble degree than national bubble level; if using housing price-income ratio as the indicator to measure housing price bubble size, no matter the value 7.0 of domestic criterion or value 6.5 of international criterion, our conclusions are Chongqing has no bubble, a few bubbles at national level, to other nine cities, the bubble size increases in turn, and Shenzhen is the biggest one, almost more than 4 times above the domestic and international criterion. From the above, the real estate bubble in China is not only in structural, but also in size.

    SUN Zhi-hong1,2,CHEN Yu-lu1
    2017, 59(5): 58-66. 
    Abstract ( 105 )  
    To realize the dual goals of reducing carbon emissions and improving energy efficiency, the roles of financial support and technological progress are worth exploring. The paper uses Spatial Dubin model to analyze the relationship among financial support, technological progress and energy efficiency under the constraint of carbon emission. The results show that in terms of direct effect, bank credit has a positive effect on technological progress, the stock market shows a negative effect,the insurance market has no significant effect; the effect of technological progress on the enhancement of energy efficiency is negative; loans, stock market and financial expenditure on science and technology play a positive role in enhancing energy efficiency, and insurance market shows significant negative role in enhancing energy efficiency. Therefore, under the constraint of carbon emission, financial support has ineffective indirect effect in improving energy efficiency through technological progress, but has significantly direct promoting role.

    WEI Qiang1, WU Qing-yue2,ZHANG Bai-yang3
    2017, 59(5): 67-74. 
    Abstract ( 106 )  
    The dynamic optimization model and empirical research show that:(1)commercial property insurance has long-term and short-term positive effect on household investment, but the short- term effect is greater than long-term effect;the short-term effect that the commercial property insurance impose on household consumption is negative while the long-term effect is positive.(2)with the low level consumption as a benchmark, the more household pay for commercial property insurance, the more intense willingness to consumption in households with mid-low consumption, mid-high consumption and high consumption, and the effect on mid-high consumption household is more apparent; with the households that do not want to take any risk as a benchmark, the more household pay for commercial property insurance, the more intense willingness to do various investment. Therefore, enlarging the coverage of commercial property insurance and strengthening insurance guarantee are beneficial for household to form good anticipation of consumption and investment, and then increase expenditure.

    An Empirical Analysis of the Effectiveness of Grain Price Policy Regulation in China
    WU Cai-rong, LUO Feng
    2017, 59(5): 84-92. 
    Abstract ( 95 )  
    With the implementation of China′s food price control policy and constant increase of grain price subsidies in China since 2006, grain price also showed a rising trend,which leads to increasingly fierce debate on the effectiveness of food price regulation. Using the domestic and international monthly price data of maize, rice, soybean and wheat, the paper analyzes the linkage relationship between domestic and international food prices from the perspective of cointegration, and tests the effectiveness of domestic grain price policy regulation from the perspective of domestic food price fluctuate itself. The results show that: in the past ten years, the domestic government′s policy control over the four major food prices, cannot bring a smooth grain prices; domestic and international grain price did not show a significant cointegration relationship; with the weakening of the degree of grain price regulation, domestic and international food prices have gradually increased, but there are differences between domestic and international grain prices affect each other in the varieties; grain price fluctuation of domestic soybean has cluster, intertemporal transfer effects and conditional heteroscedasticity characteristics, and corn, rice and wheat price volatility have no significant cluster, intertemporal transfer effects and conditional heteroscedasticity characteristics. Our government should grasp grain varieties and regulation efforts to foster the function of grain market and the national competitiveness of grain prices.

    An Analysis of the Determinants of International Service Trade Costs ——Research based on the Panel Data of 40 Economies
    GONG Jing1, YIN Zhong-ming2,3
    2017, 59(5): 93-99. 
    Abstract ( 93 )  
    Based on the background of tertiarization and service globalization, this paper analyzes the determinants of 40 economies′ service trade costs from 1995 to 2011 from the aspects of generality and personality factors of service trade costs——space distance, language barriers, time zone differences, service restriction and service trade agreement. Research results show that geographic distance, time zone differences and service restriction can promote service trade costs while the existence of shared borders, common language and regional service trade agreement would play an inhibiting role; on the impact trends, the influence of geographic distance and time zone differences gradually decreases while service restriction and regional service trade agreement gradually increases. Therefore, on the way to reduce service trade costs to expand service trade scale, all countries need to take corresponding measure for the above dimensionss, especially should pay attention to influence factors that have obvious service characteristics, such as service lag, service restriction and regional service trade agreement.

    A Study of the Mechanism and Effects of Trait Affect on Procedural Justice Perception in Performance Appraisals
    JIANG Wei-dong,XU Qiu-hang
    2017, 59(5): 100-108. 
    Abstract ( 80 )  
    Employees′ procedural justice perception in performance appraisals is an important part of organizational justice, and individuals with different trait affects will have different subjective perceptions of performance appraisal system. This paper constructs the effect mechanism model of employees′ trait affect on procedural justice perception in performance appraisals, and tests the model by the following-up data. The results show that ratee′s positive trait affect has a significant positive effect on the two dimensions of procedural justice perception in performance appraisals (justice perception of system, justice perception of raters), and negative trait affect has a significant negative effect on the justice perception of the system and raters; perception of organizational politics mediates the relationship between trait affect and justice perception of system and raters. In conclusion, the findings of this research broaden the research field of antecedents of procedural justice perception in performance appraisals from the perspective of affect, and related countermeasures put forward will help managers improve the ratee′s procedural justice perception in performance appraisals.

    XU Ning,ZHANG Jin,WANG Shuai
    2017, 59(5): 114-121. 
    Abstract ( 76 )  
    Value creation with the purpose of promoting technological innovation has become an important dimension to measure the effectiveness of corporate governance. The paper analyzes the relationship between innovation performance, executive compensation and reputation from the perspectives of value distribution and value creation by using the balanced panel data of Chinese listed companies during 2011-2014. The results show that: financial performance is positively correlated with the level of executive compensation, but it has no significant effect on executive reputation; innovation performance has obvious effects on executive compensation and reputation, but different innovation performances have different effects, that is, there is a positive relationship between radical innovation output and executive reputation and there is a positive relationship between incremental innovation output and executive compensation; property right has an obvious moderating effect on the relationships between them. Therefore, listed companies can improve innovation ability by designing executive compensation and reputation contract rationally to guide it to make effective technical innovation decision.

    ZHANG De-ming,LIANG Yuan-xiu
    2017, 59(5): 122-128. 
    Abstract ( 106 )  
    Innovation investment has an important role in enterprises total factor productivity,the strength of intellectual property rights protection is the basis of decision making for enterprise innovation investment. The paper analyzes the effect mechanism of innovation investment structure under intellectual property rights protection on TFP based on panel data of 30 provinces and autonomous regions (municipalities directly under the central government) during the period of 2001-2010. The results show that innovation investment structure of source, innovation investment structure of input-intensity and innovation investment structure of application have a significantly negative impact on total factor productivity, and intellectual property rights protection has a positive moderating effect on the relationships between innovation investment structure of source, innovation investment structure of application and TFP. Therefore, in the case of the protection of intellectual property rights protection is becoming more and more perfect,enterprises should improve the efficiency of innovation input and the ability of independent research and development to promote total factor productivity.

    A Literature Review of the Relationship between Network Embeddedness and Enterprise Performance——Based on Meta-Analysis
    TIAN Hong-yun,JIA Rui,LIU Yi-ling
    2017, 59(5): 129-136. 
    Abstract ( 108 )  
    There is no consensus about the mechanism of the relationship between network embeddedness and performance and no a systematic and objective summary and evaluation in the current research on innovation theory. Meta-Analysis is used in this paper to analyze 10365 independent samples quoted from 52 empirical studies about relationship between network embeddedness and performance. Research results indicate that network embeddedness has positive effect on performance on the whole effect, and effects coming from different types of network embeddedness are different; number of network embededness dimensions, types of literatures, research levels and sample sources have significant moderation effects on relationship between network embeddedness and performance. The above conclusions refined by means of meta- analysis overcomes the shortcomings of lacking quantitative support and subjectivity of traditional literature review method to some extent, therefore, it should be more comprehensive and universal.

    Competitive Effect of Price Discrimination in Intermediate Market and Antitrust Regulation——An Analysis based on Bargaining Theory
    YU Yan1,REN Jian-xin2,TIAN Miao3
    2017, 59(5): 137-148. 
    Abstract ( 80 )  
    With the dominance of whole industry chain gradually transferred from upstream manufacturers to downstream manufacturers, downstream manufacturers′ ability to control the market is rising continually, so downstream manufacturers′ bargaining power is also growing, which will lead to the price discrimination in the intermediate market by upstream manufacturers, and have “waterbed effect” on other downstream firms. Based on the perspective of bargaining theory and the market structure of upstream monopoly-downstream oligopoly, the article analyzes the competitive effect of price discrimination in intermediate market under the circumstances of both upstream and downstream firms having some bargaining power. The results show that when the upstream firms choose the downstream firms with strong bargaining power to carry out a unified pricing negotiation, consumers′ welfare under uniform pricing is higher than that under price discrimination; when upstream firms choose the downstream firms with lower bargaining power to carry out a unified pricing negotiation, consumers′ welfare under uniform pricing is lower than that under price discrimination; regardless of the upstream manufacturers choosing strong or weak downstream manufacturers to carry out price negotiation, downstream manufacturers′ profits and total social welfare under unified pricing are always higher than those under price discrimination situation. Therefore, the article concludes that the antitrust regulation of price discrimination in the intermediate market should take into account upstream and downstream manufacturers′ bargaining power and extend the “market dominance” standard to the “relative economic advantage”.

    Pricing and Cooperation Strategy of Enterprises′ Carbon Emission Reduction in Closed-loop Supply Chain
    LI Hui1, WANG Chuan-xu1, OU Wei2
    2017, 59(5): 149-158. 
    Abstract ( 75 )  
    The different modes of cooperation between manufacturers and retailers have different effects on the emission reduction rate, recovery rate, pricing, profits and emission reduction utility in closed-loop supply chain. Considering closed-loop supply chain consisted of single manufacturer, retailer and third-party recycler, the paper builds decision models for the emissions reduction rate, the recovery rate and price under the situation of the non-cooperation, incomplete-cooperation (the emission reduction cost-sharing contract and bargaining), full-cooperation, and carries out comparative analysis. The results show that, in general, when the full-cooperation achieves the highest level of emission reduction and recovery and the lowest retail price, it also achieves the highest joint profit and emission reduction utility; for two kinds of incomplete-cooperation, except for the manufacturer′s profits, the emission reduction level, the recycling level, the wholesale price, the retail price,the retailer′s profit, the joint supply chain profit, the third party′s profit and the emission reduction utility in the emission reduction bargaining are better than in the emission reduction cost-sharing. In reality, the most ideal model of full-cooperation emission reduction is difficult to reach. Therefore, government should take measures to promote two kinds of cooperative emission reduction ways.
