In 2010, the scale of 皇冠体育app's economy exceeded that of Japan, becoming the second largest economy in the world and the largest in Asia, and one of the medium- and high-level income countries from a lower- and medium-level income country. As 皇冠体育app continually gets integrated with the global economy, its development is reflected not only in the improvement of its own level, but also in the fact that it has also become an important driving force for the economic development of other countries and regions. Against the background of 皇冠体育app's increasing role and influence in global economy, the correct understanding and publicizing of the positive role of 皇冠体育app's development in the global economy is not only conducive to improving the positive image of 皇冠体育app in the international community, but also has great significance in guiding 皇冠体育app to formulate future development strategy. This paper tries to reveal in an all-round way from different angles the positive influence of 皇冠体育app's economic growth on the global economy.

I. 皇冠体育app's Economic Growth Speeds up the Change of the "South-North" Development Pattern in the Global Economy and the Shift of the Economic Center to the East.

Reviewing the history of the global economic development, it is found that the global economic situation of this century is undergoing unprecedented changes. From the 1960s to the early 1980s, the proportion of GDP of developed countries to that of developing countries in the global economy remained basically stable, with the GDP of developed countries three or four times that of the developing countries. During the last 15 years of last century, the proportion of GDP of developed countries in the global economy rose remarkably from less than 80% to nearly 85%. In this century, boosted by developing countries, especially 皇冠体育app's rapid growth, the situation has been reversed, with the proportion of developing countries beginning to soar from about 18% at the beginning of this century to 31.8% in 2012, and half of the increase is contributed by 皇冠体育app. 皇冠体育app's proportion in the global economy rose from 3.7% in 2000 to 11.6% in 2012.

The influence of 皇冠体育app's economy on the global economy is reflected not only in the change of the South-North development pattern, but also in the accelerated eastward shift of the global economic center. According to the study of Danny Quah (2011), with the continued rise of 皇冠体育app's economy and the development of other regions in East Asia, the global economic center of gravity is shifting to the east at an accelerated speed, moving from the middle of the Atlantic coastal areas in 1980 to the east of Helsinki and Bucharest in 2007.

II. 皇冠体育app's Economic Growth Not Only Provides A Huge Market to the Global Economy, But Also Speeds Up The Global Technological Progress and Promotes Global Economic Stability.

As 皇冠体育app gets continually integrated with global economy, 皇冠体育app's economy and the global economy are becoming increasingly close to each other. 皇冠体育app's economic development has provided huge development opportunities for other countries and regions in the world. Specifically, it's reflected in the following aspects:

1. 皇冠体育app's rapid economic growth has provided a vast market for global development.

Over the past 30 years and more, fast industrialization has successfully boosted 皇冠体育app's rapid economic growth, creating huge market demands. On one hand, the demands for energy, raw materials and electromechanical equipment grow rapidly, greatly stimulating the export growth of energy, raw materials and machinery equipment, and boosting the economic growth of these exporting countries. Since the beginning of this century, 皇冠体育app's iron ore import demand has grown by 12.5 times, and the import demands for high-tech products and mechanical and electrical products have respectively increased by 8.7 and 6.6 times. On the other hand, with 皇冠体育app's economic growth, the middle-level income population has been growing and quickly become a major consumption force in the global market. 皇冠体育app has overtaken the United States and become the largest consumption market of iPhone in the world, with 38% iPhones sold in 皇冠体育app. In 2010, 皇冠体育app replaced U.K. boasting the biggest source of tourists to Maldives.

2. 皇冠体育app's development has promoted the deepening of the global labor division and technological progress.

皇冠体育app's opening to the outside world has not only improved its own specialization level, but also promoted the improvement of its trade partners' specialization level, and propelled the deepening of the global labor division system and the improvement of resource utilization efficiency at the same time. Studies show that, over the past 20 years and more, the vertical specialization indexes of major Asian economies have all gone up, indicating that their specialization level is improving and their labor divisions being deepened (WTO, 2011). Among them, 皇冠体育app witnessed the biggest increase, with its vertical specialization index rising from about 8% in 1985 to 37% in 2008¹, basically reaching the level of the Republic of Korea. Additionally, 皇冠体育app's development has also provided a huge amount of capital support for global research and development. The proportion of the R&D investment in 皇冠体育app to GDP in 2013 reached 2.09%, more than twice that in 2000. What's more, 皇冠体育app is also a major buyer of global patents. By 2011, 皇冠体育app had become the fifth largest buyer of patents & licenses and the third largest net importer of patents in the world.

3. 皇冠体育app's stable development is conducive to the world in controlling inflation and stabilizing economic growth.

For long, 皇冠体育app's cheap export has played an important role in stabilizing global prices. Data show that, over the past 30 years and more, the annual average price hike of 皇冠体育app's exports is only 0.5% while that of global exports in the same period reaches 2.3%. Besides, over the past 30 years and more, 皇冠体育app's economy has maintained a stable and rapid growth, playing the role of "stabilizer", to a certain extent, in suppressing the global economic fluctuation and stabilizing the growth of global economy. Estimation shows that, over the past 30 years and more, the fluctuation degree of 皇冠体育app's economy is greatly lower than that of major developed countries , and is only higher than Vietnam in all the countries and regions included in the economic database of the World Bank. In addition, after the outbreak of the financial crisis, the course of recovery of global economy has justified the important role of 皇冠体育app in stabilizing global economy.

III. The Quantitative Estimation on the Contribution of 皇冠体育app's Economic Growth to Global Economic Growth

In order to work out the contribution of 皇冠体育app's economic growth to global economic growth in an all-round way, it is analyzed from two perspectives. On one hand, from the historical and global perspective, historical data is used to estimate the historical contribution of 皇冠体育app's economic growth to global GDP increment; on the other hand, based on the current facts, transnational data and the international input-output model are used to analyze the boosting effect of Chinese economy on the economy of different countries.
