Foreign direct invest is the key part of our country's "Going global" strategy. It has import effect on keeping the economy secure of our country, improving economic development, answering the challenge of economy globalization; on actively taking part in the international division, making use of two kind of resources and two markets actively; on avoiding foreign trade barrier, absorbing foreign advanced technology and manage experience; and on mastering external information promptly. After the policy of reformation and opening, as a result of twenty years development, the importance of foreign direct investment of our country heighten gradually in our national economy, yet problems remain. Especially in the foreign direct investment location choice questions, over the years a variety of factors have contributed to the layout of the habitual imbalances still not been fundamentally resolved, location layout is not fully rational. The geographic location in the settlement of the issue makes it unique advantages in the study of Chinese foreign direct investment location choice to play an important role. In this paper, under this line of thought as to geographical location theory and the theory of international direct investment as a guide, which affect the location choice of international direct investment to explore the factors, the application of gravity models attempt to analyze the location of China's foreign direct investment in the selection process of various influencing factors and The relationship between the volume of investment, and through China's foreign direct investment in a different location the actual amount of investment compared with the forecast to determine the amount of investment in China's foreign direct investment in a reasonable layout of the pattern of location.Full-text is divided into five chapters:ChapterⅠ:Summary of relevant theory. Focuses on mainstream Western theory of international direct investment, specifically for China's national conditions of developing countries foreign direct investment theories, and the location selection process plays an important role in the location theory in geography. The space interaction principle in geography is an important theoretical basis of this study.ChapterⅡ:Impact of foreign direct investment location choice of the factor analysis.

According to principles of geography in spatial interactions, through the application of gravity models attempt to analyze the location of China's foreign direct investment in the selection process of various influencing factors and the relationship between the volume of investment come to China's investment activities in various regions of the gravity model equation, and China's investment activities to calculate the theoretical amount of investment, be compared with the actual amount of investment, and investment activities as to determine whether the appropriate basis. In which the division of the different regions based mainly on the level of national socio-economic development and cultural similarity of the background on the geographical proximity, with reference to the World Bank criteria for the classificationChapter Five:China's foreign direct investment location choice of policy recommendations.
