Directed by the theory of system and using theory of region geography economics theory and system economics theory, this thesis mainly discloses the movement mechanism of International Direct Investment (i.e. FDI) and its condition path, by researching the influence of ESP system of host country ,the characteristic of Investor's OIL and the International environment in order to enrich the theory of FDI and develop the research scope of the humane geography.On the basis of resuming the progress trends of FDI region structure, the thesis mainly discusses the develop system of FDI region structure and its conduct path. This structure is the result of many economical subjects to participate in international economical activities. Its formal power comes from the join forces host country's ESP, investor's OIL and motherland's pOILcy. The characteristics of host country's ESP determines the ability to absorb the foreign capital including the scale and the structure of demand; the characteristics of investors' OIL makes up investor's ability to invest to some other country including offering scale and structure. The result of contradictory moving, the system of host countries' ESP and investor's OIL make up the basic characteristics of FDI region structure. The movement direction of above two systems contradictorily determines the developing trend of FDI. The international environment promotes or prevents the scale and function of FDI. Based on above views, by analyzing power structure and building power system theory model, many important summations have been made which they followed: the texture of FDI is an none liner, many circle-roads and complex giant system which is made up by economics factors, political factors, systematic factors and the investors' psychological factors. It has all characteristics of a complexgiant system such as entirety and kinetic characteristics. The region texture of FDI specially appointed is decided by positive feedback-circle which is made by the FDI remove scale and its profit, investment cost, flow amount. This feedback-circle which decides the kinetic characteristics of the FDI region structure is a variable and self-reinforcement system. Investment flow is an acuity parameter which promotes FDI to vary. In other words, only invest flow can change the state characteristics of international capital to move. Meanwhile, invest flow is also a policy level which can be controlled by man The factors which can influence investment flow are plural. According to the expectancy of objective the host country can influence investment also do by composing its OIL differently in order to adjust FDI flow.Based on studying the tick-lock mechanism, the co-operating transmit path is analyzed deeply by analyzing the influence made by region factors, region advantage to the choice of FDI region international product style. The international product styles have been divided in this thesis. The factors including technologies factors, resource factors, industries policy and foreign capital centering degree of the industries and its' input barriers pointed influence the trades choice of the foreign capital importantly. The thesis has also studied in different angle the factors which influence Cross-border Mergers & Acquisitions and Green-field Investment .The factors including velocity, to obtain pointed enterprises strategic assets, the alike degree of investors' motherland between host country, the freedom degree of capital market are determining factors.As a living example, the Chinese Foreign Direct Investment (i.e. CFDI) has been studied. The writer thinks that shunt variable is a key factor which has influenced the structure of CFDI for the twenty years and predicts the change of Chinese ESP and the developing trend of the structure of foreign capital. The policy suggestions which how to promoteFDI flow to Chinese west area are also pointed out.
