    A leader-follower game model in patent infringement problems and its upgrade
    Lv Zhouyang, He Jianmin, Wu Guangmou
    2007, 28(4): 100-104. 
    Abstract ( 999 )   PDF (1021KB) ( 2164 )  
    In the technology transaction, the relationship between patent holders and competitors (potential infringers) is a typical leader-follower strategy. And the sequence of actions influences the payoff of both sides greatly. Models of "leader-one follower" and "leader-multiple followers" are set up respecti-vely, in order to analyze the strategies and equilibria in situations that a patent holder faces single or multiple competitors. According to the "leader-one follower" model, the corollary "likelihood of entry increases with the penalty" can only exist if the competitor acts preemptively. And results from the "leader-multiple followers" model indicates that the "leading advantage" lies definitely with the holder and that competitors need preemption to maximize their payoff by stimulating the holder to mitigate the litigation.

    The refinance policy, market timing and capital structure ——A analysis on the market condition of equity finance preference
    Liu Xing, Hao Ying, Lin Chaonan
    2007, 28(4): 115-125. 
    Abstract ( 1007 )   PDF (1132KB) ( 2436 )  
    Based on the theory of equity market timing combined with the refinance policy in Chinese stock market, the effect of refinancing condition in Chinese stock market on the capital structure is investigated elaborately. It is found that the constraint of refinancing policy results in the difference of issuing time among the listed companies under the overvaluation condition of circulating stock. Moreover, the difference of finance frequency causes the difference of utilizing the refinancing condition in listed companies. For the firms with more refinancing, three main conclusions can be drawn: 1. The overpricing of stock decreases the firm leverage in most years. 2. The historical stock valuation in the year of finance has a significant negative impact on the present capital structure. 3. The current market valuation of stock affects the accumulation change of capital structure since IPO notably. For the sample firms as a whole, three opposite conclusions can be obtained: 1. The present and historical market overvaluation of stock does not affect capital structure of the firm coustantly. 2. The preference of issuing equity does not turn into the actual outcome due to the constraint of refinancing policy. 3. The total average firm leverage decreases. To large extension, it is the outcome of that of the partial firms refinancing several times absorb much more finance capital and average them.

    Fang Yangchun, Yao Xianguo, Lai Puqing
    2007, 28(4): 126-133. 
    Abstract ( 963 )   PDF (1011KB) ( 2320 )  
    High technology companies are human capital concentrated; the compensation is the main incentive tool to gain human capital advantage. Top management compensation is also the main content of the company governance mechanism. The top management compensation in listed high technology companies and its effectiveness is analyzed empirically. The study reveals that the main factors which determine top management compensation are firm size,firm performance, economic area that firm locates at, and stock percentage of the maximal shareholder. The firm size is the biggest factor. The main factors which significantly affect percentage of stock holding by top management are firm size,firm performance, and stock percentage of the maximal shareholder. The outside director percentage of directorate and the size of intendancy committee do not affect top management compensation in statistics. Top management compensation is positively related to firm performance. Top management compensation,percentage stock ownership and compensation gap among top managements notably influence firm performance. It is also shown that the top management compensation mechanism is effective in the degree. And listed high-tech companies should build up a market-oriented, performance-driven compensation system, carry out equity incentive system, increase compensation gap, and strengthen company governance mechanism.

    The development of core competence theory: An empirical research on the relationshipbetween entrepreneurial competence and competitiveness in China
    He Xiaogang, Pan Yongyong, Lian Yanling
    2007, 28(4): 141-148. 
    Abstract ( 1088 )   PDF (1049KB) ( 2564 )  
    Although core competence theory has explained the formation of the competitive advantage effectively, it fails to give a satisfactory answer for the competitiveness transition. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the theory further. The entrepreneurial competence is considered as a core factor of the competitiveness model, and the relationship among the entrepreneurial competence, core competence, competitive advantage and performance is examined based on 283 valid questionnaires. The results disclose that even then core competence contributes to competitive advantage directly; on the other hand, the entrepreneurial operational competence not only promotes the competitive advantage directly, but also becomes the source of core competence.
