China’s manufacturing industry is embedded into the Global Value Chain production system dominated by multinational corporations in the form of Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). This model has greatly promoted the rapid development of China’s economy, but also makes China’s economy trap in the dilemma of“impoverished growth”. Therefore, it is imperative for the OEM enterprises to transform and upgrade in order to survive and develop continuously in the future. However, as the OEM enterprises try to upgrade to the high-end of Value Chain, they will inevitably be captured by various strategies of multinational corporations, which can force OEM enterprises to stay at the low-end of Global Value Chain for a long time, and ultimately the“low end locking”will be formed. Based on the capture theory, this paper constructs a moderated mediation model, in order to reveal how the strategic capture of multinational corporations leads OEM enterprises into the “low-end locking”. The research result shows that there is a positive correlation between strategic capture and the“low-end locking”of OEM enterprises. The loss of independent innovation capability of OEM enterprises acts as partial mediators between strategic capture and the“low-end locking”of OEM enterprises. The network relationship capability of OEM enterprises has the negative moderating effect on the strategic capture and the loss of independent innovation capability of OEM enterprises. Further, the network relationship capability can also adjust the mediating effect of the loss of independent innovation ability on the strategic capture and the“low-end locking”of OEM enterprises.
