Abstract: Abstract This paper comprehensively considers whether the construction, operation and management of overseas logistics infrastructure of Chinese enterprises meet the basic conditions from the aspects of the topology and the economic attributes of the Belt and Road trade network. Entropy weight-TOPSIS method is used to comprehensively evaluate the topological importance and economic importance of the national nodes. It comprehensively describes the investment and construction environment of countries along the Belt and Road. Key national nodes in the Belt and Road trade network have been identified. The established investment matrix divides the countries along the Belt and Road into priority, potential and risk investment construction areas, which provides a basis for Chinese business logistics enterprises to “go out” to reasonably choose construction investment priorities and avoid international market risks as much as possible.
