Introduction
Research for competing for interacting networks takes into account real-world networks [1][2][3][4][5][6]. However, the researchers ignored the competitors competing not only to survive but also to defeat their competitors [7]. An incursion between species can alter the dynamics of the predator-prey interaction [8], which is a widespread phenomenon. e theoretical framework that measures the feedback mechanisms and resilience dynamics between two competing dynamic networks was developed to identify the factors in a network [9,10]. However, the competition network in the real world is more complex compared with the relationship between two species. e complex symbiotic relationship in the industrial ecosystem can be taken as an example. e industrial ecosystem, which emerged in the 1990s, is an interdisciplinary applied discipline. Its main purpose is to explore the interaction between industry and its products and the natural environment. Traditional industrial activities should be transformed into an industrial ecosystem [11]. In this system, the consumption of energy and material is optimized, the output of waste is minimized, and the waste of one industrial process can be used as the raw material of another process. e theory of industrial ecology studies how the industrial system operates, regulates, and interacts with the biosphere and decides how to adjust the industry to make it compatible with the biosphere based on the cognition of the ecosystem [12]. e research of the industrial ecosystem is rich and diversified. Carayannis and Alexander [13] propose a dynamic-and learning-driven framework to study the process of knowledge generation and how to maximize organizational value by using game theory. Carayannis et al. [14] believe that knowledge sharing and knowledge management across organizational boundaries have provided a good analytical framework for the research cooperation between industry and university and promoted the trust relationship and social capital between organizational cooperation. Korhonen et al. [15] point out that the concept of sustainable development of industrial ecosystem provides a new way of thinking and an innovation path for the current industrial system construction, and the theory of industrial ecosystem and interorganizational management can supplement the shortcomings of the traditional theory of intraorganizational environmental management and guide human behavior to achieve the goal of industrial ecological balance.
Many scholars have made in-depth research on the practical application of the industrial ecosystem. Cabezas et al. [16] hold that the development of industrial ecology should not only stay at the stage of concept proposal but also be realized in practice. erefore, simulated ecological and technological experiments have been conducted, and it is further pointed out that the industrial ecosystem is a complex sustainable system and that a complex "generalized food web" is formed in industry, agriculture, and natural organisms of human social activities. Korhonen and Snakin [17] scientifically analyze the application of industrial ecology to the ecological economy, environmental planning, and organization management by establishing various models of resource utilization, energy cycle, and industrial diversification.
ey emphasize that industrial ecology and industrial ecological evolution theory will play an important role in the future development of the industrial economy. In addition, Basu and van Zyl [18] further combine the theory of industrial ecology and the theory of cleaner production and point out that the degree of cleaner production depends on the degree of industrial ecology. e research findings of these scholars enrich the theoretical system of industrial ecology and provide a new research perspective for the harmonious development of the economy and environment.
e industrial ecosystem provides a systematic analysis and a synthetic method to examine the whole life cycle of a product or a process, not just the impact of a part of a certain stage. Lotka-Volterra model (LV model) is a classical model for the study of coevolution among species in natural ecology. It is proposed by Lotka [19] and Volterra [20] to analyze the competition mechanism between two species. Lotka-Volterra model is based on the logistic curve, which is an extension of the logistic model under the condition of nonsingle species competition. Based on the logistic growth curve of a single species, the dynamic competitive growth of multiple agents in the system is considered. Lotka-Volterra model was successfully spread to the research fields of the social and economic system to interpret the competition behavior between organizations [21]. e model is widely used in the research fields of industrial competition, enterprise competition, and market competition [22][23][24][25]. Some researchers use the Lotka-Volterra model to analyze innovation activities among competitors [26][27][28][29] or technology substitution among competitors [30,31]. Some researchers focus on the transformation path [32].
At present, the application of the multidimensional Lotka-Volterra model is rare. In fact, the classical Lotka-Volterra model mainly explains the symbiotic relationship between two populations. e interpretation of symbiotic relationships in the real world needs the help of more complex models. As a result, this paper provides a three-dimensional Lotka-Volterra approach to analyze the competition evolution dynamic among the firms. Ecological populations and communities in nature are composed of organisms with different life characteristics. ere are various complex organic relations between different populations, groups, and organisms and the natural environment. Under the comprehensive effect of the external environment, the ecological community develops and evolves continuously, thus forming an ecosystem. Similar to the evolution of the natural ecological community, the industrial ecological innovation system is also an open and dynamic system. ere are many similarities between them in selection mechanism, environmental function, evolution, and development. e evolution process of industrial ecological innovation system can be analyzed and illustrated by referring to the evolution phenomenon among biological populations. Geroski and Mazzucato [33] explored four models for industry population dynamics: market size model, negative feedback model, contagion model of entry and exit, and density-dependent model.
At present, few researchers focus on the application of industrial ecosystem theory to a certain industry. is paper attempts to study the evolution path of specific industrial ecological innovation systems from the perspective of ecology through a combination of the theory of industrial ecosystem and specific industries and to make some tentative exploration on the evolution and development of industries. e research objective of this paper is to develop a feasible three population equilibrium model to analyze the industry competition. e benefits of the three-dimensional Lotka-Volterra system are as follows: we successfully develop a feasible three population equilibrium model to analyze the industry competition, and that expands the research situation of the two-dimensional model and has a broader application field. e three-dimensional Lotka-Volterra model is closer to the real-world population competition relationship. e two-dimensional Lotka-Volterra model can be regarded as a special case of the three-dimensional Lotka-Volterra model. It is an ideal state that there are only two competitors in an industry. is paper proves the value of the three-dimensional Lotka-Volterra model from both theoretical and empirical perspectives and successfully expands the system dimension of the Lotka-Volterra model in the analysis of the competitive relationship.

Materials and Methods
In this section, we will describe the three-dimensional Lotka-Volterra model and its equilibrium state. ese theorems will be used to discuss the case of industrial competition analysis. is paper selects BYD, Great Wall Motor, and ChangAn Motor as the research objects. ese three companies have the same market segment and are among the top domestic auto companies in this market segment.
As shown in Figure 1, this paper provides the deduction of the LV-MCGP model. e specific model construction process is as follows.

Dynamics Analysis of Logistic and Lotka-Volterra Models.
According to the logistic model, we constructed an internal dynamic system of population 1 (P 1 ).
where g 1 (t) is the growth rate in phase t. N 1 (t) is the population size of period t. K 1 is the maximum population scale. α 1 is the intrinsic growth rate. (1 − (N 1 /K 1 )) is the retardation of growth. e measurement model is as follows: Among them, c 1 � α 1 ; usually, c 1 > 1. It usually represents the synergy within a population. c 2 � − (α 1 /K 1 ); usually, c 2 < 0. It refers to the competition effect within a population. It is called the internal competition coefficient or population density inhibition coefficient.
Similarly, the internal relation model of population 2 (P 2 ) can be obtained: (3) e following system shows the impact of the P 2 on P 1 : where β 12 is the influence of population 2 on population 1 (β 12 > 0, synergistic effect, β 12 < 0, competitive effect). Similarly, the following system shows the impact of P 1 on P 2 : where β 21 is the impact factor of population 1 on population 2. e dynamic system of P 1 and P 2 is Equation (6) is called the Lotka-Volterra (LV) system. e LV model, based on the logistic model of a single species, considers the dynamic growth of competition and symbiosis of two or more entities simultaneously in the ecosystem [20], which can accurately describe the competition and symbiosis between corporate populations. e LV system can determine the influence of the core population in the evolution of the entire ecosystem [34] and thus has better data fitting and prediction expression [35]. e classical Lotka-Volterra model, a differential dynamic system, was used to simulate the dynamic relationship of populations in ecology. Later, economists introduced it into the fluctuation of macroeconomic growth and the market competition of medium scale and scope. According to the principle of biology, there are many kinds of functional relationships among biological populations: promotion or inhibition. For their own survival and development, there is also a relationship between market competition subjects: the existence of one subject can promote or inhibit the diffusion process of another. e LV model of dualpopulation or multipopulation growth is a differential dynamic system to simulate the dynamic relationship between populations. Based on the numerical value of β, the type of interaction between species can be judged [36]: (1) When β 12 � 0 and β 21 � 0, the populations develop independently and do not affect each other. At this time, the LV model expresses no symbiotic relationship. (2) When β 12 < 0 and β 21 < 0, the two populations compete with each other. One party grows while the other declines. ere is no symbiotic relationship between the two. Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society resources from the other population to maintain its own growth. (4) When β 12 > 0 and β 21 � 0 or β 12 � 0 and β 21 > 0, both sides have obtained extra high-quality resources in the evolution process, but the symbiosis coefficient of one of them is zero, indicating that it has not obtained extra resources, suffering from no loss, and the innovation ecosystem is now in a symbiotic mode of partial benefit. (5) When β 12 > 0 and β 21 > 0, the population is in a mutually beneficial symbiosis mode. Among them, if β 12 ≠ β 21 , the symbiotic relationship between the two populations is asymmetric and mutually beneficial symbiosis; when β 12 � β 21 , the populations have obtained equal benefits in the process of symbiotic evolution, and the resources are exchanged in equal amounts, forming a symmetric and mutually beneficial symbiosis.
In business activities, competition can occur between populations that use common resources. Symbiosis in the industry ecosystem does not exclude competition. Populations in completely or partially the same living space need to conduct technology, talent, and market interaction in the factor market. However, when one population in the ecosystem relies on another core or dominant population to obtain resources and living space, a parasitic relationship is formed. In a parasitic relationship, the symbiotic subject has a one-way exchange of interests. e state is not extensive because of this asymmetric one-way exchange. erefore, the system will gradually develop in the direction of symbiosis conducive to mutual dependence and mutual benefit.

Analysis of Equilibrium Point Stability.
e equilibrium point of the evolution of the populations means that the output of both parties has reached the maximum and has remained stable. e following does the stability analysis. In a stable state, the equations are e equilibrium points are P 1 (0, 0), e Jacobian matrix is used to solve the equilibrium point. We obtain the determinant Det (J) and trace Tr (J) of the Jacobian matrix. When Det (J) > 0 and Tr (J) < 0, the local equilibrium point is in a stable state; otherwise, it is not a stable equilibrium point. Table 1 shows a comparative analysis of the determinants and traces of the Jacobian matrix. On this basis, stable equilibrium points are obtained.
As shown in Table 1, the condition in which the local equilibrium point is stable is obtained. rough comparison, the symbiosis evolution mode under different values corresponds to different stable equilibrium points, but the equilibrium points of partial benefit, asymmetric reciprocity, and symmetric reciprocity symbiosis are all the same P 4 . e parasitic equilibrium point may be P 2 , P 3 , or P 4 ( Table 2).
As shown in Table 2, the symbiosis evolution equilibrium point of the population is related to the symbiosis model and is affected by the size of the mutual competition coefficient between the innovation populations and the maximum capacity of the respective populations.
Because of the interdependence between the two populations, the size of the population should not be zero. P 4 point corresponds to the scale of population 1 (P 1 ) and population 2 (P 2 ), respectively At the same time, the conditions for meaningful P 4 are With the solution of the above equations, the only nonnegative solution can be obtained. at is, the equilibrium solution is is equilibrium solution represents the equilibrium state of the LV system.

ree-Dimensional Lotka-Volterra Model.
In a symbiotic system composed of population 1 (P 1 ), population 2 (P 2 ), and population 3 (P 3 ), the mathematical model is ) is the interaction coefficient between populations. When β ij is greater than zero, there is a synergetic relationship among populations. When β ij is less than zero, there is competition among populations.
Objective programming is an effective way to solve the problem of multiobjective programming. e basic idea is to determine the expected value of each objective function of the multiobjective programming problem. e goal programming method is more flexible, more effective, and easier to use and implement in dealing with multiobjective problems. In recent years, multichoice goal programming (MCGP) has been widely used to solve many practical decision problems [37]. Chang [38] proposes the multiplechoice goal programming (MCGP) method as Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society c objective function, Here, d + i and d − i indicate the value of the i-th goal exceeding and not reaching the expected value of the goal.
i are close to the negative deviation of |g i − g i, max |. g i, min and g i, max are the lower and upper limits for the goal of g i . Having studied the relevant research [39], the authors embed the equilibrium condition of the LV system into the MCGP model to obtain the Lotka-Volterra-MCGP model in this paper: constraints, g i � K, (K is the sum of market capacity).
As a linear form for goal programming, multichoice goal programming embedded with Lotka-Volterra equilibrium (LV-MCGP) can be easily resolved by common software.

Results and Discussion
is paper takes competitive enterprises in the automobile industry as an example. e automobile industry is one of the largest and most important industries in the world. In a sense, the development level and strength of the automobile industry reflect the comprehensive national strength and competitiveness of a country. China's automobile production and sales have ranked first in the world for many years in a row, and India, Russia, and other countries have also developed rapidly in recent years. e emerging market is characterized by low car ownership per capita and large potential demand, so it is still the most potential market for the world automobile industry in the future. China Industry Information Network (CIIN) shows that auto production increased from 2.07 million to 24.5 million during 2000-2015, with an average annual growth rate of 17.92% [40]. After years of rapid development, the growth state of China's vehicle industry has returned stable [41].
In the medium and long term, the impact of national policy-oriented market consumption demand is relatively short-lived, and the automobile industry has a huge pulling effect on the economy because it has a high contribution to GDP growth. Under the premise of stable growth, it is difficult to introduce policies to stimulate or inhibit the automobile industry. e influence of local purchase restriction policy on the overall sales of the automobile industry is limited, so the sustainable development of the social economy is the decisive factor for the sustainable growth of the automobile industry.
is study selects the independent brands in China's automobile market (providing average quality and low-end products) as the market segment for analysis. ree major manufacturers in the market segment are taken as the research samples. e products of three enterprises are regarded as three product groups. e scale of product population is expressed by the sales volume of automobile products in each quarter. e three-dimensional LV system is used to study the symbiotic and interaction mechanism among three enterprises (three enterprise product populations). e status of the automobile industry in China's national economy is constantly improving, but it is also facing increasingly fierce and cruel global competition. Given the coexistence of opportunities and challenges, it has become a realistic proposition how to comprehensively, correctly, and timely evaluate the competitive situation of

With the characteristics of a long industrial chain, high relevance, strong driving force, and integration of various high and new technologies, automobile manufacturing enterprises have become one of the important symbols to measure the industrial level, economic strength, and the ability in technological innovation of a country. Founded in 1995, BYD is listed on Shenzhen Stock Exchange and Hong Kong stock exchange. It is mainly engaged in the business of rechargeable batteries and the automotive industry including traditional fuel vehicles and new energy vehicles.
Great Wall Motor Co., Ltd., is the largest SUV manufacturing enterprise in China. It was listed in Hong Kong H-share. At present, it has three brands of Haval, Great Wall, and Wey, and its products cover three categories of SUV, car, and pickup truck. It has four vehicle production bases and has the independent supporting ability of engine, transmission, and other core parts.
ChangAn automobile is a camp enterprise of four major groups of Chinese automobiles. It has 159 years of history and 37 years of vehicle manufacturing accumulation.

ree-Species System
Analysis. Automobile sales have significant seasonal characteristics, so this paper gets the smoothing data firstly. In this paper, the four-period simple moving average method is used to process the observation data, and the later research is mainly based on the moving average data. Auto sales data comes from the public database of related enterprise websites.
As shown in Table 3, the data provided the official website of the China Automobile Industry Association [42]. By substituting the seasonal smoothing data in Table 3 into the following econometric model and making regression analysis, Table 4 can be obtained.
Among them, c 1 � α 1 . Generally, c 1 > 0, meaning the synergy effect within the population. c 2 � − (α 1 /K 1 ), and generally c 2 < 0, meaning the competition effect within the population. It is called the internal competition coefficient or the population density inhibition coefficient. e results of the regression are shown in Table 4. As shown in Table 4, the regression effect is not very good, the P value is high, and the correlation coefficient value does not meet the requirements of the theoretical hypothesis.
In order to deal with the above problem, a step-by-step measurement method is provided to reduce the dimension of the measurement model.
Step 1. Calculate α i and K i based on the population growth model.
As shown in Table 5, the effect of regression is better, which meets the requirements of the theoretical hypothesis. Substitute the above parameters into equation (12).
Step 2. Deform the model (12) as model (13). In the transformed equations, the left side of the equal sign is the known value, and the right side of the equal sign is the parameter equation waiting to be solved.
Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society 7 Let α i and K i be substituted into the model. e value of Y i can be obtained by calculating the following equations: Equation (14) gives the value of Y i . e model can then continue to calculate the variables of the relationship between populations. A new econometric model (15) can be obtained.
Step 3. Get the relevant parameters through regression analysis. e research replaces c ij in the equations with β ij and K i , and then the value of β ij can be obtained by regression operation.   As shown in Table 6, the regression results are provided. e regression coefficients of some parameters are not significant. is shows that there is a difference between the symbiosis model and the ideal state in the real world.
Step 4. Put the regression results into the three-species symbiosis system. e results are as follows: By observing the above formula, we can find that this is a typical asymmetric three-species symbiosis model. Product group 2 (Great Wall Motor) has a competitive (negative) impact on product group 1 (BYD), while product group 3 (ChangAn Motor) has a cooperative (positive) impact on product group 1 (BYD). In order to understand the interaction mechanism of this symbiotic system, we will analyze the evolution from the perspectives of three-species equilibrium development and three-species dynamic game.

Balanced Development of Symbiotic System Analysis.
e three-species equilibrium system can be obtained by modifying the actual system (formula (16)).
e equilibrium point of the three-species symbiosis system is as follows:
By substituting the above symbiotic relationship into the MCGP model, the following results are obtained: objective function, Min constraints, x ∈ X, X � x 1 , x 2 , . . . , x m , X ∈ F, (F is the set of feasible solutions), e problem is solved using the LINGO [43] software. e results of β ij value optimization of the equilibrium symbiosis model are shown in Table 7.
As shown in Table 7, with the expansion of the market scale, more cooperative behaviors among populations are required. Cooperation behavior is comprehensive, and the intensity of cooperation is similar, not the greater the better. e intensity of cooperation between enterprises is close to equilibrium. ree-Species Evolutionary and Strategic Analysis. In order to illustrate the evolution trend of the three-species game, this paper selects several representative symbiotic relationships for data simulation: (1) Comprehensive cooperation: the three enterprises adopt the strategic behavior of mutual cooperation (β � 0.5) (2) Overall competition: the three enterprises take the strategic behavior of competing with each other (β � − 0.5) (3) e combination of the two powers: the interaction coefficient between them is 0.5. At the same time, they take the competitive strategy against the third enterprise, and the interaction coefficient is − 0.5. In this study, Great Wall Motor and ChangAn Motor are the relative advantage enterprises. For example, in 2020, the total sales of the Great Wall and ChangAn Automobile ranked 7th and 8th in the Chinese market. BYD, meanwhile, ranked 16th in sales [42] (4) e combination of the two weak enterprises: the interaction coefficient between them is 0.5. At the same time, they take the competitive strategy against the third enterprise, and the interaction coefficient is − 0.5. In this study, Great Wall Motor and BYD motor are relatively inferior enterprises (5) Isolated mode: the three enterprises have no influence on each other and develop separately (6) Parasitic mode: one enterprise gets help from two other enterprises. BYD is an example to illustrate the parasitic mode (7) Malicious parasitism mode: one enterprise gets help from two other enterprises and takes competitive activities against them. BYD is an example to illustrate the malicious parasitism model e statistical characteristics of data simulation results are shown in Table 8.
As shown in Table 8, under different models, the simulation data are significantly different. In this paper, the simulation results will be compared and evaluated.

Model Evaluation.
is paper evaluates the population growth of different modes based on the similarity between ideal solution and simulation data. e higher the similarity, the better the growth. e evaluation matrix is A.
is study determines the weight by entropy method for the three populations in the evaluation. A technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) was used to evaluate the similarity.
e ideal scale (max scale) of the three populations can be regarded as three criteria for evaluating the three-species Lotka-Volterra system.
Entropy weight is an objective method [44]. It is a popular method and always combined with other methods, for example, entropy combined with fuzzy VIKOR [45], entropy combined with GIS and AHP [46], and entropy combined with subjective weight [47]. e entropy weight method is provided as follows [48]. Suppose that m is alternatives (A 1 , A 2 , . . ., A m ) and n is criteria (C 1 , C 2 , . . ., C n ) for a decision problem. en initial decision matrix is A � a 11 a 12 · · · a 1n a 21 a 22 · · · a 2n ⋮ ⋮ ⋱ ⋮ a m1 a m2 · · · a mn Step 1: normalize the evaluation matrix.
Calculated based on the data in the example, w 1 � 0.346, w 2 � 0.325, and w 3 � 0.329.
Hwang and Yoon [49] proposed the popular method TOPSIS to determine the best alternative. TOPSIS method is presented as follows: Step 1: build the normalized matrix R. (28) Step 2: build weighted normalized matrix V.
v ij � w j r ij , n j�1 w j � 1, w j is the weight of j th criterion.

(29)
Step 3: calculate A + and A − . A + and A − are defined in the following way: e positive-ideal solution (PIS) and negative-ideal solution (NIS) are determined, where J and J' are sets of benefit and cost criteria, respectively.
Step 4: calculate the distances of each alternative from positive-ideal solution (PIS) and negative-ideal solution (NIS).
Step 5: rank the order of alternatives.
Here, C + i ∈ [0, 1] with i � 1, 2, . . ., m. erefore, the best alternative should be found with the order of C + i . e more value of C + i , the better. If C + i is close to 1, the alternative A i is closer to the PIS.
As shown in Table 9, this paper can successfully get the evaluation ranking of populations in different modes. For the three-species symbiosis system, the comprehensive cooperation mode is the best symbiosis mode, and the comprehensive competition mode is the worst symbiosis mode. In the comprehensive cooperation mode, the three enterprises can occupy more market share. e three enterprises have a certain advantage in the market segmentation, and their cooperation can strengthen the core competitiveness. e three enterprises can strengthen their market position by establishing strategic alliances, product development cooperation, and even price collusion. e simple parasitic mode is better than the malicious parasitic mode. e two-weak-joint mode is better than the two-strong-joint mode. e simple parasitic mode is better than the two-weak-joint mode and the two-strong-joint mode. Cooperative behavior is always better than competitive behavior. e more cooperative behavior, the better. And the less competitive behavior, the better.

Discussion.
e result shows that there is a typical asymmetric three-species symbiosis system. Product group 2 (Great Wall Motor) has a competitive (negative) impact on product group 1 (BYD), while product group 3 (ChangAn Motor) has a cooperative (positive) impact on product group 1 (BYD). For the three-species symbiosis system, the comprehensive cooperation mode is the best symbiosis mode, and the comprehensive competition mode is the worst symbiosis mode. e simple parasitic mode is better than the malicious parasitic mode. Cooperative behavior is always better than competitive behavior. e classical Lotka-Volterra model is used to discuss the symbiosis of two species. With the extensive development of related research, the two-species model is difficult to solve practical problems. Scholars began to pay more attention to the three-species LV model. Dong et al. deal with bistable solutions for a three-species competition model with nonlocal anisotropic dispersal [50]. ey demonstrate the asymptotic behavior of traveling waves and have constructed a class of front-like entire solutions. Liu et al. have found the spreading properties of a three-species competition-diffusion system, which is noncooperative [51]. at is an important theoretical result for the three-species competition system in unbounded domains. e above researchers are the forerunner of the three-species Lotka-Volterra model. e current research mainly focuses on the mathematical analysis, feasible solution, and its conditions of the three-species Lotka-Volterra model. e research of the three-species Lotka-Volterra model for empirical and applied analysis has just got off the ground. is paper provides a feasible analysis paradigm for LV symbiosis analysis of three populations, which is a meaningful attempt. e evolution of the industrial innovation ecosystem is a complex process. e model, method, and data studied in this paper are simple and have some shortcomings in the following aspects. Firstly, the evolution of the industrial innovation ecosystem is complex in organizational evolution, science and technology, economic development, innovation culture, innovation policy, and so on. A more in-depth research process needs to consider the influence of the above complex factors. Researchers need to summarize the evolution characteristics of the industrial innovation ecosystem, such as creativity, diversity, dependence, environmental selectivity, and self-organization. is study does not explore the life cycle characteristics of industry and enterprise development. According to the life cycle theory of ecosystem, the follow-up research needs to deeply explore the evolution process of the industrial innovation ecosystem, determine four evolution stages: germination stage, growth stage, stable stage, and decline stage, and analyze the main characteristics of each stage. In the process of the formation, operation, and evolution of the industrial ecosystem, we will encounter many problems about risk, including risk identification, risk management, and risk control. In future research, researchers should strengthen the management of the operation and evolution process of the industrial innovation ecosystem, reduce the risk, and strictly control the incidence of system risk. We can quantify the operation process and evolution process of the system and establish a scoring and management system, which will help to control the system risk. In terms of case study, we should appropriately select industries other than the automobile industry to study the industrial ecosystem, such as the telecommunications industry, clothing industry, and food industry. According to the characteristics of different industries, we should explore the formation and development rules of different industrial ecosystems and expand the research field.

Conclusion
e three-dimensional Lotka-Volterra model has been successfully built with the sales data of three local automobile enterprises in China. Based on ree-Species System Analysis, it can be found that there is a symbiotic relationship among automobile enterprises and that the threespecies model can be adopted in analyzing the competition and cooperation among enterprises. rough the balanced development of Symbiotic System Analysis, the result of symbiotic optimization under the equilibrium state of three populations is obtained. Equilibrium is possible in the growth of three populations.
ree-Species Evolutionary Analysis shows that cooperative action is better than competitive strategy and that this method is more practical in the analysis of enterprise competitive strategy. e findings reveal that this approach is feasible and effective in analyzing competition, evolution, and balanced development of enterprise population. It is of great importance to study the relationships among enterprises as it is helpful for enterprises to make policies of strategy. Future studies could analyze the life cycle of competition among enterprises with the three-species Lotka-Volterra model.
