Under the background of economic transformation and industrial upgrading, our country's economic development is suffering from such problems as the threat of natural resource restraints, low employment enrollment, the manufacturing industry lying in the bottom of the value chain, low self-innovation abilities. Substantial efforts made to develop the Cultural & Creative industries are primary measures to solve such questions. Consequently, the research makes theoretic and realistic sense, which revolves about the motives and developing modes considering the Cultural & Creative industries.We,firstly, look back upon the evolutionary process of our country's Cultural & Creative industries, and then make an analysis on the developing conditions of the Cultural & Creative industries. As the findings show, the total output of the Cultural & Creative industries as well as the creative talents are centered on the North China, the East China, the Central South, and the six large Cultural & Creative industries are preliminarily taking shape. Secondly, as we show, social capital, the efficiency of the financial market, creative capital, the conditions of supply and demand on the traditional products, consumer preferences, the strength of intellectual property protection are responsible for the Cultural & Creative industries. Social capital and the efficiency of the financial market have much to do with the development of the Cultural & Creative industries, which make a positive effect on the Cultural & Creative industries. Creative capital makes an uncertain influence on the Cultural & Creative industries. Only when the quantity of creative capital is over the critical value, does creative capital contribute to the development of the Cultural & Creative industries. The conditions of supply and demand on the traditional products and the intellectual property protection make an uncertain effect on the development of the Cultural & Creative industries, depending on the quantity of cultural ingredients in the creative products.Consumer preference makes an uncertain effect on the development of the Cultural & Creative industries, depending on the the conditions of supply and demand on the traditional products and the quantity of cultural ingredients in the creative products.Making a comparison on the successful experience developing the Cultural & Creative industries, we sort out the developing modes of the Cultural & Creative industries into market-evolution pattern and government-motivation pattern. We, in accord with the realities, sum up the realizing way of the two developing modes. Meanwhile, we compare the two developing modes in the initiative strength, the origin of creativity, the aim of developing, and the scale of effects & speed. Secondly, by virtue of making an analysis on the game theory model regarding creative firms and the government, we find that no matter whether the government execute some supporting policies on the development of the Cultural & Creative industries, as long as the cooperative revenue between the creative firms is over the critical value, creative industries clusters will come into being; no matter whether the creative firm is likely to cooperate with other firms to innovate, as long as the revenue of developing the creative industries is over the cost of executing the policies, the government will support the construction of the creative landscape.As the findings show, creative milieu is the primary factor to determine the relationship between the economic growth and the creative industries. When the creative milieu is benign, the creative industries have been developing a good relationship with the economic growth; when the creative milieu is not so good, the relationship between the economic growth and the creative industries is ambiguous, depending the output of the area. The creative milieu, creative talents, urbanization, and public goods are key factors to determine the coupling efficiency. The creative milieu is beneficial for the coupling efficiency. The creative talents make an ambiguous effect on the coupling efficiency, depending on the economic growth patterns and the output. The urbanization and public goods also make an uncertain influence on the coupling efficiency, depending on the creative milieu.Under the market-evolution mode, rents and the real wage are key factors to determine the creative industries where to come into being, but the effect is decreasing on the its spatial distribution. The housing problem is concerned with the long-term development. The more spatial the scale of housing is, the more the creative talents are, the higher the extent of agglomeration is. The more spillover effect is, the higher the real wage is; the higher the concentration extent of the creative industries is, the stronger effect the spillover imposes on the rise of the real wage. As the prospect for the creative industries is uncertain, firms have difficulty obtaining spport from the government. As a result, the network of firms is small. The government issuing such policies as information platform construction, financing sponsoring is beneficial to enlarge the network of firms. Whether the creative industries can be able to be cultivated depends on the difference of the creative products. As long as the difference of the creative products is kept in the scale, the creative industries can be able to cultivate by way of clusters.If the transport cost is low, the policies are perfect, two areas will produce manufacturing products and creative products, no exchange of manufacturing products and creative products will happen. Otherwise, the production of manufacturing products and creative products will concentrate on one place, the markets for manufacturing products and creative products come into being.The infrastructure investment has a substitution effect on the development of the creative industries. The ratio of government investing in the infrastructure, the lower developing speed the creative industries are. The more the special funds for cultural industries, the more beneficial the formation of creative milieu and the development of the creative industries. When the creative talents are nearly equally distributed(1/2), the function of the policies forgovernment cultivating clusters is limited. When one area has an advantage in the quantity of creative talents over the other area, the policies forgovernment cultivating clusters for lag-behind areas make sense.
