With the improving cooperation of organizations, competitive advantages of an enterprise greatly depend on the various of idiosyncratic resources and capabilities embedded in enterprise networks. The relationship cross organizations have been the foundation of the greater performance. It is necessary to do the research on the relationship between enterprise networks and performance.Based on the relational rents theory, this research analyzes why enterprise networks is important and how it effect the enterprise performance: Firstly, an enterprise network is a useful way to acquire economic rents. Further, the rents and competitive advantages will affect organizational relationship and enterprise networks positively. Secondly, the renting-acquiring mechanism which is a long-term, complex and dynamics process has been proposed. Using the structural-relational method, it analyzes the respective relationship between relation intensity, network scale, network range, and relation quality and enterprise performance. At last, it proposes the conceptual model of the relationship between enterprise networks and performance. Empirically, using the questionnaire and multiple regression analysis, this paper comes to the following conclusions: Firstly, the firm network has improved the performance, especially, the relation intensity, network range and relation quality, have positive impacts on the performance. Secondly, the network scale has an ambiguous impact on the enterprise performance. By comparison, the positive regression coefficient of the relation intensity is larger than relation intensity's and network range's. The competitive of small enterprises has something with the relational and structural dimensions, while strong and big scale enterprise has something with relational dimensions, such as relation quality. Practically, the nutrition of relation quality should be one of the most aims of strategic management, and the intensity and diversity of co-operational relationship are also important. In addition, it is necessary to make the further research on larger samples to test the assumption unsupported.
