About
Luyu Wang is a researcher focused on the intersection of industrial automation and corporate finance, with a particular emphasis on how robotics adoption reshapes firm-level economic outcomes in Chinese manufacturing. Wang’s most-cited work examines the link between industrial robot application and enterprise financialization, providing empirical evidence at the firm level that reveals how automation influences capital allocation and financial asset holdings. A related study extends this analysis to markup rates, exploring how robot adoption affects pricing power and market competitiveness among Chinese manufacturers from 2011 to 2022. Though the citation counts are modest—7 and 2 respectively—these contributions address a timely and policy-relevant question: whether automation drives firms toward real investment or speculative financial activities. Wang’s research offers valuable insights for scholars studying technological change, industrial policy, and corporate behavior in emerging economies. By grounding theoretical debates in rigorous empirical analysis of Chinese manufacturing data, Wang helps bridge the gap between automation studies and financial economics, making their work a useful reference for students and researchers interested in the real effects of Industry 4.0 on firm strategy and market structure.
