ABSTRACT Drawing from the theory of territorial behavior, this article predicts the explanatory role of silence behavior in the relationship between knowledge hiding and hider's innovative behavior in Chinese organizations, and the potential of Zhongyong thinking in mitigating the detrimental effect of knowledge hiding. Results derived from a time-lagged and multi-source survey support our hypotheses. Specifically, knowledge hiding is negatively associated with the innovative behavior of the hider. Silence behavior mediates the relationship between knowledge hiding and innovative behavior. Meanwhile, Zhongyong thinking moderates the positive relationship between knowledge hiding and silence behavior, as well as the indirect relationship between knowledge hiding and innovative behavior through silence behavior. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed based on these findings. 摘要 基于领地行为理论，本文提出沉默是中国人用于保护知识领地免受侵犯的预期性防御手段，但会抑制知识隐藏者的创新行为。本文同时考察了中庸思维在缓解知识隐藏对创新行为不利影响的可能作用。作者通过自评-他评结合的方式对239对员工-领导进行了三个阶段的问卷调查，结果表明，知识隐藏行为与隐藏者的创新行为有负面作用，而沉默在其中起到了部分中介作用。同时，中庸思维调节了知识隐藏与创新行为之间的直接负向关系以及知识隐藏通过沉默作用于创新行为的间接负向关系。最后，本文讨论了这些研究发现的理论和实践意义。

ABSTRACT Political marriage is an under-investigated form of social capital for family firms. In this study, we examine the relationship between political marriage and the growth of family firms. We analyze this relationship using survey data from parent–child dyads of 164 family firms in mainland China, along with qualitative data from eight semi-structured interviews. Drawing on social capital theory and self-verification theory, we propose that political marriage makes a significant contribution to the growth of family firms. We further propose that the effects of a political marriage on firm growth are moderated by the duration of the marriage and the degree of romantic love experienced by the couples. We find that the positive relationship between political marriage and firm growth is stronger when the duration of the marriage is longer. Our results also reveal a three-way interaction effect of political marriage, length of marriage, and romantic love on firm growth. In this interaction, the positive effect of political marriage is strongest when the marriage is long and the degree of romantic love is low (rather than high). Theoretical and practical implications are discussed. 摘要 政商联姻是家族企业研究中尚未引起广泛关注的一种重要社会资本形式。基于164对家族企业父母-子女的问卷调查数据以及8位家族企业主的半结构访谈的定性数据分析，本研究检验了政商联姻与家族企业成长之间的关系。基于社会资本理论以及自我验证理论，我们认为政商联姻对家族企业的成长具有正向影响。此外，研究结果表明婚姻持续时间与夫妻之间感知的浪漫爱情程度对政商联姻与家族企业成长的关系具有显著的调节作用，即当结婚时间越长时，政商联姻与企业成长之间的正向关系更为显著。我们的研究结果还证实了政商联姻、婚姻持续时间与浪漫爱情对企业成长的三维交互作用，即当婚姻持续时间越长，而夫妻之间感知的浪漫爱情程度越低的情况下，政商联姻对企业成长的积极影响最为显著。
ABSTRACT Political March is an under invested form of social capital for family firms In this study, we examine the relationship between political marriage and the growth of family firms We analyze this relationship using survey data from parent – child dyads of 164 family firms in mainland China, along with qualitative data from eight semi structured interviews Drawing on social capital theory and self verification theory, we propose that political margin makes a significant contribution to the growth of family firms We further propose that the effects of a political margin on firm growth are modeled by the duration of the margin and the degree of romantic love experienced by the couples We find that the positive relationship between political marriage and firm growth is stronger when the period of the marriage is longer Our results also require a three-way interaction effect of political marriage, length of marriage, and romantic love on firm growth In this interaction, the positive effect of political marriage is strongest when the marriage is long and the degree of romantic love is low (more than high) Theoretical and practical implications are discussed The marriage between government and business is an important form of social capital that has not yet received widespread attention in the study of family businesses. Based on the qualitative data analysis of 164 surveys of parents and children in family businesses, as well as semi-structured interviews with 8 family business owners, this study examines the relationship between political and business alliances and the growth of family businesses. Based on social capital theory and self verification theory, we believe that political business marriage has a positive impact on the growth of family businesses. In addition, the research results indicate that the duration of marriage and the perceived level of romantic love between couples have a significant moderating effect on the relationship between political and business alliances and family business growth. That is, the longer the marriage time, the more significant the positive relationship between political and business alliances and business growth. Our research results also confirm the three-dimensional interaction between political and business alliances, marriage duration, and romantic love on corporate growth. That is, when the duration of marriage is longer and the perceived level of romantic love between couples is lower, the positive impact of political and business alliances on corporate growth is most significant.

ABSTRACT This study examines how Chinese firms capture value from their innovations. We propose that relationship-building through business entertainment may be helpful. In particular, wining and dining key stakeholders, including clients, suppliers, distributors, and government officials, can help firms gain access to complementary resources necessary for commercializing their innovations, facilitating capturing value from innovations. However, business entertainment is less effective in regions with relatively developed market-supporting institutions, including factor markets and legal institutions. The analysis results of archival data and data from a World Bank survey of Chinese firms support all the above arguments. 摘要 本研究考察了中国企业是否可以通过商务招待的方法促进其创新产品的商业化并获取价值。我们假设通过商务招待（主要指宴请活动）与利益相关者，包括客户、供应商、分销商和政府官员--建立关系，可以帮助企业获得将其创新商业化所需的互补资源，促进从创新中获取价值。但是，在要素市场和法律制度等市场支持机构相对发达的地区，商务招待效果较差。通过对中国上市公司制造型企业在2009-2017数据的分析，以及世界银行对中国企业的调查数据的分析，我们发现结果支持上述所有论点。

I enjoyed reading the paper ‘Business model innovation and experimentation in transforming economies: ByteDance and TikTok’ (Ma & Hu, 2021) and the response by Li (forthcoming). The main point of Ma and Hu’s paper was that companies in emerging economies can experiment with new business models in their home markets and then bring some of that experimentation into other markets. It is sort of the ‘reverse innovation’ (e.g., Govindarajan & Euchner, 2012) taken from the product space and applied to new business models. The role of technology in this story is to enable new services originally targeting a different demographic with a different medium (cf., Amit, Snihur, & Zott, 2021). Li (forthcoming) has a problem with this interpretation of the ByteDance case. He argues that ByteDance had very little business model innovation (BMI) but rather took a savvy approach to internationalization. Li argues that the role of technology in the ByteDance case is more of a means for reducing ‘paradoxical’ tensions between local responsiveness and global integration, i.e., for enabling not business model innovation but rather ‘transnational’ strategies as developed by Bartlett and Ghoshal (1989). What does it take for a company to be successful over the long term?We know that it requires a great strategy, excellent operations, financial controls, effective marketing, a solid business model, routines for ‘future-proofing’, and so forth. There are many elements that need to interact for company success. So it is natural that when we see a successful company, different people, depending on their disciplinary background, can attribute different elements as the ‘main reason’ why a company is successful. Furthermore, what does ‘business model innovation’ actually mean (cf., Massa & Tucci, 2021)? There have been many different definitions published over the years (see Foss & Saebi, 2017 for a more complete discussion). The lowest bar probably addresses the question: has any one conceptual component or element of a business model (cf., Abdelkafi, Makhotin, & Posselt, 2013; Afuah &

ABSTRACT This paper comments on Yulun Ma and Yue Hu's (2021) recent article ‘Business Model Innovation and Experimentation in Transforming Economies: ByteDance and TikTok’. It argues that TikTok's international success is not due to so-called business model innovation; instead, it is because ByteDance has overcome three major hurdles facing emerging market firms pursuing internationalization. It also posits that the case of TikTok offers inspiration for theorizing paradox, namely, individuals and organizations can solve paradoxical tensions by increasing capacity through the use of advanced technologies.

ABSTRACT This article examines the impact of foreign diasporas on host country firms. It contributes to diaspora research by focusing on the context of emerging market host countries and the specific case of Chinese diaspora in Russia. Drawing on the concepts of organizational capabilities and organizational legitimacy, we explain how the Chinese diaspora can be beneficial for the competitiveness of Russian firms, and how Russian firms can uniquely leverage these potential benefits through engagement with individual Chinese diasporans and diaspora institutions. Our article adds to the diaspora literature in several ways. First, unlike the majority of past research, which tends to focus on the benefits for the diaspora's home country, we highlight the potential impact on host country firms, specifically their capabilities and legitimacy at home and abroad. Second, our model can be viewed as a direct response to the many calls in the literature to study the microfoundations of firms’ capabilities. Third, we add to the legitimacy literature by proposing that engagement with a foreign diaspora can help host country firms establish and maintain their legitimacy both at home and on a global scale. Although our framework is informed by the Chinese diaspora in Russia, we discuss its generalizability to other contexts. 摘要 本文探讨了外国侨民对东道国公司的影响。文章通过引入组织能力和组织合法性的概念，解释了在俄华侨如何提高东道国俄罗斯公司的竞争力，以及俄罗斯公司如何通过与华侨个人以及华侨相关机构的紧密互动，对其技术能力、组织能力、全球化能力产生积极影响，以实现潜在收益最大化。本文对侨民及移民研究作出了几点贡献。第一，过去大多数研究强调侨民群体为母国带来的益处，而本文聚焦侨民群体对东道国公司的潜在影响，特别是对这些公司在国内外的能力和合法性方面的影响。第二，本文直接回应了学者们对更多关注公司能力微观基础的呼吁。第三，本文提出与外国侨民的紧密互动可以提高和保持东道国企业在本土和国际市场上的合法性。鉴于本文的理论框架反映的是在俄华侨的特定情境，文章进一步探讨了该框架在其他情境下的普遍性。

The article introduces the concepts of organizational capability and legitimacy to explain how overseas Chinese in Russia can enhance the competitiveness of host country Russian companies, as well as how Russian companies can have a positive impact on their technical, organizational, and globalization capabilities through close interaction with overseas Chinese individuals and relevant institutions, in order to maximize potential benefits. This article has made several contributions to the study of overseas Chinese and immigration. Firstly, most previous studies have emphasized the benefits that diaspora groups bring to the home country, while this article focuses on the potential impact of diaspora groups on host country companies, especially their ability and legitimacy both domestically and internationally. Secondly, this article directly responds to scholars' call for more attention to the micro foundation of corporate capabilities. Thirdly, this article proposes that close interaction with foreign nationals can enhance and maintain the legitimacy of host country enterprises in both domestic and international markets. Given that the theoretical framework of this article reflects the specific context of overseas Chinese in Russia, the article further explores the universality of this framework in other contexts.
