From1992proposed "market for technology" in the hope that the use of technology spillover effect of FDI generated to improve the quality of China’s economic growth, while theorists of technology spillovers are generated but not conclusive. With cross-border FDI from developed to developing countries object, researchers in the technology spillover positive effect gradually weakened, in the study of developing countries increasingly consider the impact of technology spillover effect of the host country’s absorptive capacity. From the theory of foreign direct investment (FDI) technology spillover effect on the host country’s general consensus has been reached, but the empirical findings FDI technology spillover but there had been widespread disagreement. Of course, the result will cause different estimates data indicators measure differences in the level of estimation methods, as well as outside, but the deeper reason is that in the past only unilateral FDI on the host country to study the role of technological progress, not from the perspective of the host country analysis of spillover effects. Analysis of the spillover effects of FDI spillover channels and factors affecting the technology gap within the role of foreign companies understand the impact of technology spillover effect results in size.Based on this, the new growth theory through knowledge spillover model theory for analysis of total factor productivity; using TFP model and build threshold regression model under the assumption of double threshold, the threshold of three to examine the threshold effect; selected within the perspective of foreign technology gap, the gap between art and non-linear relationship between research FDI technology spillover. Use threshold regression model to analyze the mechanism of action of this technology gap with FDI technology spillover between economics provide a reasonable explanation for the paradox of the relevant empirical studies, provide further support for the development of theories and policies to attract investment recommendations.
