仿冒商进入背景下电商供应链质量信息披露、定价与区块链协同决策

    Quality Information Disclosure, Pricing and Blockchain Collaborative Decision-Making of E-commerce Supply Chains under the Background of Counterfeiters' Entry

    • 摘要: 考虑仿冒商进入电商市场的情形下,构建由品牌商、仿冒商与电商平台组成的供应链博弈模型,研究仿冒商进入与平台区块链采用之间的交互机制,探讨品牌商定价与平台区块链两种信息披露策略在应对仿冒商进入中的作用,并分析其对供应链绩效与消费者剩余的影响。研究发现:仿冒商进入会损害品牌商与平台利润,但可能提升消费者剩余;若平台不采用区块链,品牌商可依据普通消费者比例和仿冒品质量调整定价以披露或隐藏质量信息,从而影响市场中仿冒品的性质,其中非欺骗性仿冒品质量的提高反而会对平台与品牌商的利润产生积极影响;区块链在普通消费者比例较高、仿冒品质量较低或适中时能提升信息披露效率与市场信息透明度,甚至可阻止仿冒商进入,实现品牌商、平台、消费者剩余三方共赢;当普通消费者比例适中、仿冒品质量中高时,区块链的信息披露效应可能激化价格竞争,反而激励仿冒商进入市场。

       

      Abstract: Considering the situation that counterfeiters enter the E-commerce market, a supply chain game model consisting of brand owners, counterfeiters and E-commerce platforms is constructed to study the interaction mechanism between the entry of counterfeiters and the adoption of platform blockchain. The role of two information disclosure strategies of brand owners ' pricing and platform blockchain in dealing with the entry of counterfeiters is discussed, and its impact on supply chain performance and consumer surplus is analyzed. The study found that the entry of counterfeiters will damage the profits of brand owners and platforms, but may increase consumer surplus; if the platform does not use blockchain, the brand can adjust the pricing according to the proportion of ordinary consumers and the quality of counterfeit goods to disclose or hide the quality information, thus affecting the nature of counterfeit goods in the market. The improvement of the quality of non-deceptive counterfeit goods will have a positive impact on the profits of the platform and the brand; blockchain can improve the efficiency of information disclosure and the transparency of market information when the proportion of ordinary consumers is high and the quality of counterfeit products is low or moderate, and can even prevent counterfeiters from entering, so as to achieve a win-win situation among brand owners, platforms and consumer surplus. When the proportion of ordinary consumers is moderate and the quality of counterfeit products is high, the information disclosure effect of blockchain may intensify price competition, but encourage counterfeiters to enter the market.
