Abstract

In recent decades, with the support and traction of a number of key policy steps, the scale of China’s sports industry has achieved a new leap. The optimization of industrial structure has made new progress. From "nascent" to "strong", China’s sports industry grows in importance of the national economy. In the meantime, sport is a significant way to promote health. With the rapid growth of people’s requirements for sport and health, it is urgent to re-evaluate the past development path and formulate new directions so as to continuously improve and optimize the system. This study systematically sorts out China’s sports industry documents at different stages, and describes the focus of each stage and the overall evolution track. On this basis, text mining and quantitative evaluation being used to extract high-frequency words of sports industry documents, and a sports industry document evaluation system including 9 first-level indicators and 47 second-level indicators is established. In this study, text similarity analysis is used to realize intelligent PMC index analysis, which effectively improves the analysis efficiency and makes up for the deficiency of simple qualitative analysis. According to the study, China’s sports industry policies are scientific and effective. Combining with the development direction of industrial transformation, it provides ideas for the future adjustment and optimization of sports industry evolution path.
