Abstract

Referring to relevant data, the Maritime Silk Road is concerned with several countries Asian and African countries. Cooperation and development are the core of this strategy. Combining the history of the Maritime Silk Road, we mainly focus on the international trade, where high trade efficiency is required. Logistics Performance Index (LPI),which can assess the efficiency of the trade, is an effective indicator to evaluate the development of the Maritime Silk Road. In addition, relationships between China and other countries do influence the trade quantity. We first analyze the historical background of proposing the Maritime Silk Road in 21st century with data integrated. Then, we try to focus on the economic circle and study the international trade to analyze LPI and economic relationships between China and other countries. What's more, we set up an extended model, based on the original Gravity Model, to study the short-term impact of the development strategy of the Maritime Silk Road on China.
