Abstract：Distinguished from the western developed countries, China has its own institutional and cultural surroundings of the film industry as well as a long history. We constructed city network based on the data of Chinese film industrial value chain divisions and connections by choosing Chinese films whose box offices accounted for more than 75% annually from 2003 to 2015 as samples. On this basis, we further analyzed structural characteristics of city network and the reasons for the formation with social network analysis. It was indicated that: firstly, the city network included 84 nodes of cities (59 domestic cities as well as 25 overseas cities) and 883 lines among cities (repeated connections not included) and the density of the city network was only 0.25, which demonstrated that connections between cities were relatively sparse. Secondly, the city network took on a "core-periphery" structure with "one center and two sub centers". Beijing was the main core, Hong Kong and Shanghai were the sub cores, and other 81 cities such as Taipei, Seoul and Shenzhen were on the periphery. Thirdly, connections within the city network were mainly vertical concerning various links of the value chain and horizontal connections in minority. To be more specific, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Hangzhou, and Shenzhen had vertical and horizontal connections in value chain with Beijing. Seoul, Taipei and Bangkok connected with Beijing mostly based on vertical cooperation of the value chain while Guangzhou, Tianjin, and Jinhua related with Beijing on mostly horizontal cooperation of the value chain. Fourthly, the triple attributes of culture, commerce and politics of the Chinese film industry deeply affected its structural characteristics of city network. In conclusion, our study broadened the source of city network data and polished the study of city network based on the headquarter-subsidiary relations. Key words: city network
