Many researches have demonstrated that the process of economical take-off, which developed countries have undergone, also the process of larger disparity among regional economies and industry agglomeration.

In the twenty years after policy reform, Chinese industries also become more agglomerated, such as specific industries centralized in specific locations, various industries centralized in more developing regions.This article focuses on reviewing industry distribution of our country and uses Krugman's new geographic economics for reference to discuss the process of industry agglomeration of our country and the impact of agglomeration on the regional development.
