30 years of reform and opening up,our country economy level of development has made remarkable achievements.Manufacturing industry as an important part of our country's economy,as the rapid development of economy in our country for many years the inexhaustible power provides,thus gained the title of "world factory" in China.From the perspective of the development of manufacturing,from the early stages of reform and opening up to the turn of the century,a large number of surplus rural labor force transfer and low labor costs is the root cause of the rapid development of manufacturing industry in China,our country also from a poor and backward agricultural country into a manufacturing power,to become the world's manufacturing centre.However,in recent years,along with the arrival of the "lewis turning point",the disappearance of demographic dividend,and the minimum wage system of the implementation and the rise of "pay rise tide",our country manufacturing industry showed a trend of rising labor costs,especially after the 2008 financial crisis,developed countries implement the strategy of "manufacturing"?a large number of foreign investment out of the territory of China,China's manufacturing enterprises face unprecedented challenges and difficulties.Long-term since,our country manufacturing industry in the process of development,formed a reliance on cheap Labour costs of inertia,insufficient investment in science and technology research and development and technological innovation,capital intensive and technology intensive industry development is relatively backward,prevented China from "manufacturing power" to"manufacturing power".Based on the above background,this article from the perspective of labor cost to explore China's manufacturing industry in the face of the critical period of "malaise",how to break out from the difficult position,to maintain the international competitive advantage,so as to realize the structure transformation and upgrading of manufacturing industry.First in this paper,the first part of the changes in the level of wages in manufacturing industry of our country has carried on the summary,think that China's rising Labour costs is the inevitable trend for a long time,and from the perspective of labor supply and demand equal elements in the perspective of international trade and two aspects has analyzed out country manufacturing industry the rise in wages,in order to better reflect labor factors impact on the manufacturing industry structure upgrade,and then according to the situation of enterprise production factors input subdividing internal structure of manufacturing industry in China,it can be divided into labor-intensive,capital-intensive and technology-intensive industry types,at the same time the proportion of the three types of manufacturing industry in the industry situation and the employment situation has carried on the summary description.Article second part of the first theoretical analysis of our country's long low labor cost to our country manufacturing industry structure transformation and upgrading of blocking effect,and then from four mechanism to analyze the rising labor costs for manufacturing structure optimization effect,summarized as follows:labor supply and demand guide mechanism,the laborer income driven mechanism,the enterprise cost drive mechanism,the associated mechanism.The third part of the article from the Angle of the empirical analysis to study the rising labor costs in China manufacturing.industry of the three major categories of impact effect,based on the empirical analysis in addition to consider the Labour cost factor,will also be employment,capital stock,the level of science and technology research and development,per capita consumption and other factors into consideration,the empirical results concluded that rising labor costs will make the output value of the labor-intensive manufacturing industry in China,and can raise capital intensive and technology intensive manufacture industry output value proportion.Finally,the article according to the theory of mechanism analysis and empirical analysis results,combined with analysis of the status quo,put forward to promote our country manufacturing industry structure optimization and upgrading of the reasonable feasibility Suggestions.
