Group theory was used to analyze how the related interest groups struggle with each other in the sponge city construction boom in China. The Chinese central government, local city government, banks or financial companies, construction companies, and the publics were included in the analysis. In the recent two years after the start of the first batch of sponge city construction pilot project, the following problems occurred. There is lack of related technology standard and regulation.

But more research and related scientific top-level design is needed.
