Abstract: This paper mainly researches the relationship between the technology standard and effect of FDI technology spillover by analyzing the Stackelberg game model. FDI technology spillovers depend not only on technology stock, but also technology standard of foreign firms. This paper proves that technology standard can certainly block the technology evolution of the host country and impede its technology innovation, which can help foreign firm obtain monopoly rent and stable power. However, local firm has to accept negative effect of FDI technology spillover in the end.

Abstract: This paper mainly researches the relationship between technology standard and effect of FDI technology spillover by analyzing the production life cycle theory. FDI technology spillovers depend on not only technology stock, but also technology standard of foreign firms. By analyzing product life cycle theory, this paper studies the inevitability of foreign firm transferring technology standard to host country. Simultaneously, this paper proves that technology standard can certainly block the technology evolution of host country and impede its technology innovation, which can help foreign firm obtain monopoly rent and stable power.

Abstract: With the building of "information highway" has been increasingly high, the bits and the Internet are ahead hand in hand; In bit-economic environment, there is no material form of atoms, only the 0 and 1 form of number sequences that are called the bit stream, which have value other than weight, have played an increasingly important role in the economic life of the people. Compared with the industrial age economics, Bit-economics has pulled out many new phenomenon, which the traditional laws of economics can’t explain the subsequent hidden new economic theories; As to bits of product demand curves out of the demand curve contrary to the phenomenon of material products, This paper using empirical analysis and the use of SPSS, MATLAB software, proves the new forms that bit-product demand curve shows to us.

Abstract: This paper adds to the growing literature on the vertically specialized collaboration of modularity firms by applying a model in which complement and core products collaborate with each other in a network situation. More specifically, it investigates the influence of the complement’s network strength on the equilibrium price and output of the core product. The results thus characterize the relationship between the complement’s and the core products’ network strength during collaboration.
