Abstract Competitive research funding distribution is an common way to allocate research funding in many countries, but the scheme of how to define competitive research funding and how to allocate it are distinctive. The main character of the competitive research funding distribution system in Japan is that the distribution is based on the crossministerial management system and promotes the communication & collaboration between departments in government. It contributes to keep the transparency of the competitive research funding distribution process, and the elimination of the “unreasonable overlapping” and “excessive concentration”. Besides, it helps to promote the research and academic innovation. It suggests that competitive research funding allocation scheme in China needs to learn from international experience, deepening its understanding of research funding management system, support mechanism of science innovation, the establishment of crossministerial data platform and academic communities. The pattern of research development should be innovated and the capability of self innovation should be promoted to achieve leap in scientific research level and international competitive strength, and finally to fulfill the dream of powerful nation of science and technology.
