Preferential access to scarce resources can bring competitive advantages and better performance to enterprises. However, the existing literature has a relatively single research path on the influencing factors of enterprise resource access, which has lack of sufficient research from the perspective of multidimensional environment. In particular, as an important factor affecting enterprises' access to external resources, few studies have given empirical results on the impact of political factors such as government structure on enterprise resource access. Preferential access to scarce resources can bring competitive advantages and better performance to enterprises. However, the existing literature has a relatively single research path on the influencing factors of enterprise resource access, which lacks sufficient research from the perspective of multidimensional environment. In particular, as an important factor affecting enterprises' access to external resources, few studies have given empirical results on the impact of political factors such as government structure on enterprise resource access. Through the discussion of multidimensional environmental factors, this paper can provide theoretical reference for the reform of government institutions and the establishment of good political relations between enterprises and the government. Focusing on the multidimensional environment of government structure, political relations, and enterprise resource acquisition, this paper takes 129 enterprises in Central China as samples and uses the structural equation model to empirically verify the relationship between the formalization of government structure, liaison mechanism, decentralization, and enterprise resource acquisition, especially the easing effect of political relations. The results show that the formalization of government structure is promoting enterprises to obtain policy resources and financial resources; the liaison mechanism helps enterprises to obtain financial resources and market resources; decentralization has a significant positive impact on enterprises' access to policy resources and market resources; and political connection magnifies the positive effect of government structure on enterprise resource acquisition, but there are differences in different dimensions.
优先获取稀缺资源能够为企业带来竞争优势和更好的业绩。然而，现有文献对企业资源获取影响因素的研究路径相对单一，缺乏从多维环境视角进行的充分研究。特别是，作为影响企业获取外部资源的一个重要因素，很少有研究给出关于政府结构等政治因素对企业资源获取影响的实证结果。优先获取稀缺资源能够为企业带来竞争优势和更好的业绩。然而，现有文献对企业资源获取影响因素的研究路径相对单一，缺乏从多维环境视角进行的充分研究。特别是，作为影响企业获取外部资源的一个重要因素，很少有研究给出关于政府结构等政治因素对企业资源获取影响的实证结果。通过对多维环境因素的探讨，本文可为政府机构改革以及企业与政府建立良好政治关系提供理论参考。本文聚焦于政府结构、政治关系和企业资源获取的多维环境，以华中地区129家企业为样本，运用结构方程模型实证检验政府结构形式化、联络机制、分权与企业资源获取之间的关系，特别是政治关系的缓解作用。结果表明，政府结构形式化有助于企业获取政策资源和金融资源；联络机制有助于企业获取金融资源和市场资源；分权对企业获取政策资源和市场资源有显著正向影响；政治关联放大了政府结构对企业资源获取的正向作用，但在不同维度上存在差异。
