Abstract：Port connects home and abroad, together with the Belt and Road initiative, effectively promote regional economic development. However, there are unclear problems in the port of participating in the construction of Belt and Road initiative, and limited participating in the global production network (GPN) . Therefore, this paper constructs the theoretical framework of port participation in the construction of the Belt and Road from the perspective of GPN, and takes Dongjiang Port as an example. The main conclusions are as follows: 1) There is a cross-level interaction among multi-level actors in port operation, Ports establish financial and logistics channels to participation in the GPN. 2) The participation of ports in the construction of the Belt and Road reflects the path evolution. The initial stage of port integration mainly depends on the value capture and value creation, while the value promotion behavior appears in the consolidation stage, and the high-quality development stage is reflected in value creation and value promotion. 3) The innovation of value behavior at the local and enterprise levels of Dongjiang Port shortens the evolution process of initial stage, promote the port to enter the high-quality development stage under the external stimulus, and appears the value behavior turn, and becomes the fourth generation port as a trading port.
