Abstract

This paper exploits the factor analysis and input-output method to test the relationship between industrial convergence and media industry performance. Based on an evaluation model, the comprehensive scores of media industry in different provinces in China are empirically figured out. The results show that in the country-year-level, the convergence between the media industry and information industry has a steadily upward trend during 1995 to 2011. And in the province-year-level, the scores in the east area are relatively higher, which means the east provinces have a relatively competitive media industry. Using the input-output method, this paper measures the convergence degree between the media industry and telecommunication industry, information industry. The results show that the convergence degree of the media industry and information industry are increasing rapidly during 1995 to 2011, while that of media and telecommunication are relatively flat. Based on a production function model embedded with convergence factor, researchers empirically find that there is an “inverted-U” shape relationship between them.
