Influenced by geopolitical and kinship relationships, the flow of migrant workers become agglomerate and directional and forms "Henan Village", "Zhejiang Village", "Henan exhibition village" of migrant workers gathering area in Beijing. This paper investigates the distribution of occupational directed migration of migration workers in "Henan exhibition village" and analyses the possibilities of directional migration workers' occupational upward mobility. The result shows that the directed migration of migrant workers, without the help of government and outside, migrant workers have extremely small chances of upward occupational mobility.
