In view of the current domestic research on green economy and investment behaviour, it is still lacking. This article will innovatively combine the two, and use a new perspective to study the impact of foreign investment by heterogeneous companies on China's green economic growth. First of all, this article has an in-depth understanding of the theoretical knowledge of green economy; then established the evaluation index system and experimental model of the impact of foreign investment banks of heterogeneous enterprises on the growth of green economy. This article uses four core factors for analysis and statistics of the differences in status factors. Finally, it is concluded that foreign-funded enterprises with heterogeneous behaviour will affect the local green economic growth, and this effect is regular and bidirectional.

The service industry is known as the 'green engine' of economic development due to its low pollution and high efficiency. We found that China's service industry is slowly participating more in the upstream production activities of the GVC for green innovation development. The degree of GVC forward participation in China's service industry was significantly affected by the 2008 financial crisis, showing a downward trend. The degree of GVC backward participation continued to decline except for 2009-2011, during which it varied more greatly than of the degree of GVC forward participation. Although China's degree of GVC participation is relatively small compared to the 26 countries along 'the Belt and Road', its GVC position is comparatively high. Therefore, China should strengthen its industrial complementation with the 26 countries along 'the Belt and Road' through capacity cooperation and achieve mutual benefits from green innovation development.

Behavioural theory examines how the intensity of underperformance influences firms' strategic decisions such as research and development (R&D) investment, but inconsistent inclusions arise. Moreover, insufficient attention is paid to the effect of institutional environments. Drawing on behavioural theory and institutional theory, we argue that the level of government environmental regulation and subsidy has a positive effect on the relationship between performance feedback and R&D expenditure through intensifying perceived knowledge deficiency and alleviating resource constraints. We test these arguments with 711 firm-year observations of Chinese listed companies in 16 environmentally disruptive sectors during the period of 2008 to 2015, finding empirical support. Our study contributes to behavioural theory and R&D literature by showing that uncertain attribution of performance shortfalls and severe resource constraints can result in firms' passive R&D decisions in response to underperformance, but government regulation and subsidy can help contain this problem.

With the rapid development of innovative economy, effectuation plays a crucial role in the decision-making process of new ventures; however, several inconsistencies persist regarding the correlation between effectuation and entrepreneurial performance. Drawing lessons from the organisational ambidexterity theory, this study used market ambidexterity of new ventures as a mediator variable to determine the correlation between effectuation and entrepreneurial performance in the market domain. Using data from a large sample of enterprises, we found that effectuation markedly affects the balance and interplay of market exploration and market exploitation, although its impact mechanism is different. In addition, effectuation positively affects the operating performance and growth performance; the balance of market ambidexterity positively affects the operating performance, whereas the interplay of market ambidexterity positively affects growth performance. Overall, this study offers several managerial implications for new ventures to apply effectuation to attain market ambidexterity and enhance entrepreneurial performance.

Since mixed ownership reform is an important innovation of China's state-owned enterprise property rights system, whether the intervention of heterogeneous property rights can promote the reform of the state-owned enterprise governance system has attracted much attention from the outside world. To comprehensively evaluate the policy effects of China's state-owned enterprise property rights system innovation, we use an analysis of PSM-DID model to empirically test the impact of mixed ownership reform of state-owned enterprises on their internal control quality. Large sample data analysis shows that the internal control quality of state-owned enterprises that have undergone mixed ownership reform is significantly greater than that of state-owned enterprises that have not undergone mixed ownership reform. The research conclusion shows that heterogeneous property rights have played an active role in repairing the 'owner absence' and 'insider control' of state-owned enterprises, and the internal control system of state-owned enterprises has been substantially improved.

This article uses a variety of survey methods to conduct investigations and analyses the proportion and economic benefits of cultural industries in China's emerging markets in the past five years, as well as the impact of new cultural industries and economic industries in the context of economic globalisation. The research results show that in the total economic output value, the proportion of new cultural industries is getting higher and higher, which stems from the support of national policies. However, it also inevitably has some shortcomings, such as the rigid content form of some cultural industries, which is inconsistent with consumer psychology; the level of industrial clusters is low, the market environment problems are prominent; the protection of intellectual property rights is not strong enough, and infringements occur from time to time, etc. Only by solving these problems can the cultural industry achieve healthy and substantial development.

Green innovation strategy is an essential way for enterprises to deal with the deteriorating ecological environment. However, the existing studies pay little attention to the affect path of green innovation strategy on sustainable competitive advantage, and the differences among different industries are not yet clear. In order to solve these problems, from the perspective of resource management, this paper puts forward a theoretical framework on the affect path of green innovation strategy on sustainable competitive advantage at different industry dynamic levels. We selected 210 enterprises in traditional industries and 219 enterprises in emerging industries, and used multiple hierarchical regression methods for empirical testing to reveal the important role of the two core ways in resource management (resource integration and reconfiguration). This study extends the theory of strategic management and sustainable competitive advantage, and provides a useful reference for enterprises to practice green behaviour.

This study explores the impact of Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series 18001 (OHSAS 18001) certification on innovation efficiency in green management and seeks to assist senior managers in understanding the ideal structural environment to maximise the innovation potential of the certification system. We examine the ownership status of organisations and the pay disparity between employees and executives to determine whether they influence the ability of OHSAS 18001 to promote innovation efficiency. We analyse data from 1,905 Chinese listed companies using stochastic frontier analysis to determine the innovation efficiency of OHSAS 18001-certified companies. We find that OHSAS 18001 stimulates firm innovation efficiency. However, this improvement in innovation efficiency is dependent on the level of pay disparity between executive and non-executive employees. We also demonstrate that the effect of OHSAS 18001 on innovation efficiency is closely related to enterprise ownership, whereby state-owned enterprises are less likely to realise the innovation potential of OHSAS 18001 than privately-owned organisations are.
