Abstract:

 The modern information service, as a new industry deriving from the intersection of informational technology and service, is gradually merging into all the links in the global economy, which is both a key industry of the service economy in developed countries and a proper access to the new industrial system in developing countries. This essay, based on the successful innovation of international information services, and from the five aspects of locational index, regional division, competitive force, research investment and innovative capability, gives a quantitative analysis of the development of the Chinese three major regions, thus coming to a conclusion of the necessity to have an informational convergence to promote the economic development in the above regions. For the Yangtze delta, an importance should be attached to the innovative service center containing economy, finance, trade and shipping, and at the same time, face the small and mediumsized private business, developing an urbanized, benefitted, paninformational social service, especially a new information service, so as to link up with the global system gradually. And for the Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei areas, stress should be laid on the innovative service center containing technology, culture and sports, developing a productive information service of converging informationization and industrialization as well as an information product of the state database so as to form the famous brand and intellectual property. And for the Pearl River delta, more attention should be paid to the innovative service center supporting the construction of the new countryside, developing an information service facing the rapidgrowth enterprise in Hong Kong, Macao and other areas as well as a market system from capital operation to information operation. It is significant for these three major regions to strengthen the industry convergence and coordinated management, and reduce the risk and cost of innovation so as to turn the extensive informational resource into the knowledge product of scientific policymaking, forming the overall superiority of the Chinese culture in the field of global informational service.
