Since the founding of The People's Republic of China, China has actively sought for technological breakthrough and economic growth under the situation of domestic and foreign troubles. Introducing overseas talents has become an important way to solve the shortage of talent resources. The policy of overseas talent introduction in our country has different times characteristics in different historical periods. Based on the analysis paradigm of historical institutionalism, the policy of overseas talent introduction presents an evolutionary stage of budding, exploring, consolidating and expanding. Economic development objective, political environment and social concept are important factors in shaping the policy of talent introduction. The combination of scale effect, learning effect, collaboration effect and adaptive expectation leads to the path dependence of policy, while international competition and domestic supply and demand contradiction are the driving forces of policy change. Through exerting broader social forces, expanding the introduction objects and improving the talent management mechanism, we strive to further promote the policy of overseas talent introduction and provide more support for our talent reserve.
