With the wide application and sharing of data, the issue of data privacy protection has become increasingly prominent. Technological innovation and digital transformation have brought huge opportunities and challenges to both enterprises and society. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the legality, transparency and security of enterprises in the process of data collection, analysis and sharing, as well as the ethical principles and data quality considerations they follow. This study adopts descriptive statistical analysis methods and draws the following conclusions: although enterprises invest more in innovation achievements, ethical principles and data sharing, they pay relatively less attention to data privacy protection. However, protecting user privacy and data security is an important aspect for companies to fulfill their social responsibilities. Therefore, companies should comprehensively consider innovation, ethics, data sharing and data privacy protection to build trust, reduce bias and inequality, and contribute to sustainable development. This will help enterprises achieve better results in technological innovation and digital transformation, and at the same time bring more benefits to society.

As a strategic emerging industry,the digital creative industry has become one of the important driving forces of China's economic development. The party's 20th report proposed the goal of promoting the integration of strategic emerging industries, aiming to build an internationally competitive digital industrial cluster. With the rapid development of digital technology, the digital creative industry plays an important role in the process of global cross-border integration into a strategic emerging industry. However, the development of the global digital creative industry is unbalanced, and the leading countries are mainly concentrated in Europe, North America,and Asia[1], There are also differences in the development of digital creative industries in different countries, mainly due to the differences in policies, markets and cultural environments in different countries. Thus,the comparative analysis of the UK, the United States, Japan, and China's major cities in the digital creative industry development trends and characteristics will provide important experience and guidance for the future development of the digital creative industry in China, and is also of great significance to countries that promote the implementation of national digital creative industry development plans.

In this paper, a data envelopment analysis (DEA) model was used to study the impact of the registration system reform on corporate financing efficiency with enterprises of the Growth Enterprise Market (GEM) as examples. The paper starts with theories related to financing structure and efficiency, and expounds basic theories involved in the analysis process. Later in the empirical analysis part, relevant data of GEM enterprises from 2018 to 2022 were collected and processed to determine input indicators such as the turnover rate and output indicators such as the amount of capital raised in the initial offering for empirical comparative analysis. It is finally concluded that the registration system reform positively affects corporate financing efficiency. Specifically, after the reform, there are changes including more diversified corporate financing channels, improvement of pure efficiency and scale efficiency to different extents, lower financing cost, and higher financing efficiency. The findings can provide some reference for corporate financing, and some policy recommendations are lastly presented on other factors affecting the efficiency of registration system implementation, hoping to provide some insight into the development of securities market.

In the context of the trend of Digital transformation of enterprises, this paper empirically examines the differences in the impact of founders and strategic investment controllers on Digital transformation of enterprises, taking private listed companies from 2007 to 2020 as research samples. The research results indicate that the founding controller is beneficial for listed companies to actively promote the digital process of the enterprise; However, both financial and industrial investment controllers will inhibit the Digital transformation of enterprises, and the inhibitory effect of financial investment controllers is stronger. Digital finance and control rights further strengthen the above regression results. Individual controllers, vertical industry controllers and professional financial investment controllers are conducive to the Digital transformation of enterprises. The mechanism research shows that the company's innovation input and output, and information transparency play a mediating role between the controller heterogeneity and the enterprise's Digital transformation. The research results of this paper enrich the research perspective and content of the relationship between corporate controllers and Digital transformation, and have certain reference significance for enterprises to improve corporate governance and actively promote Digital transformation.

China's unique geographical location allows for a trade model that combines land and sea. Among them, western China is a strategic hinterland that can balance the development of land and sea power trade domestically, and can utilize the Chengdu Europe express railway to develop the transportation industry in western China. However, there are many problems in the operation of the Chengdu Europe Express Railway, such as chaotic supply organization and fierce competition among supply organizations. In this paper, the grey prediction model is used to predict the freight volume of the Chengdu Europe Express Railway, and the necessity of optimizing the freight source organization of the Chengdu Europe Express Railway is obtained. The fuzzy cluster analysis method is used to select alternative distribution centers for 20 cities and states in Sichuan (except Chengdu), and the principal component analysis method and Gravity model are used to obtain the establishment plan of the distribution center of the freight source, so as to design a freight source organization plan with a more development trend of the Chengdu Europe Express Railway.

The formation of huge goodwill provides a good "cover" for enterprise management to carry out earnings management. Listed companies can create a huge amount of goodwill with the help of high premium mergers and acquisitions, and in order to achieve the goal of positive earnings management, they may intentionally choose to delay the provision of goodwill impairment. On the other hand, goodwill impairment may also become a means for management to carry out negative earnings management, especially in the case of poor short-term business performance and decline in performance, but the overall sustainable profitability has not been changed. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt appropriate methods and models to determine whether an enterprise has earnings management behavior under different circumstances [1]. Based on this, through the in-depth analysis of the relevant financial data of Century Huatong Company, the accrual profit separation method is used to identify the degree of earnings management, and the obvious earnings management motivation is revealed in the formation of goodwill and the timing of goodwill accrual. At the same time, it is found that the provision of goodwill impairment is also affected by earnings management motivation. These earnings management behaviors may cover up the real business situation of the enterprise, which has an adverse impact on investors who do not know the inside information[2].
