Research on the use of China industrial enterprise database (1999~2013): Comparative analysis of missing value processing methods ZHANG Shao-hua, LI Su-su 2021 (05):  20-29.  Abstract ( 857 )   PDF (2675KB) ( 2016 )   China industrial enterprise database has become the preferred database to study China's micro enterprise activities. However, the lack of key indicators in the database seriously affects the update and use of the database. On the basis of referring to the main literature processing methods, this paper uses five interpolation methods to improve the database, including single imputation, MICE1、MICE2、MMICE1和MMICE2, so as to extend the Chinese industrial enterprise database to 2013, and evaluate the relative effectiveness of various interpolation methods by calculating the total enterprise productivity. The results show that:In the five interpolation methods, the single imputation method and MMICE1 are the two most effective interpolation methods, which can not only achieve the consistency of database features before and after interpolation, but also achieve the consistency of data structure features of total factor productivity. It is worth emphasizing that in terms of improving the database and calculating the total factor productivity, the former is a relatively economic method because of its simple process, while the latter is a relatively effective method because it can retain more sample information The research value of this paper is to provide basic research work for the use of Chinese industrial enterprise database.

The Realization of Public Sentiment and Economic Fluctuations: The Perspective of Financial News LI Shou-hao, DING Li-gui 2021 (05):  30-41.  Abstract ( 3701 )   PDF (2324KB) ( 4446 )   To systematically analyze the relationship between public expectations and economic fluctuations, we construct a system to analyze economic climate based on public opinion by text mining. Through the creation of a financial sentiment dictionary and natural language processing, we quantify the public's judgment on the economic situation reflected in multi-channel news, that is, the financial sentiment score, which could be used to measure the chaos of economic activity. Because the financial sentiment score can be obtained and updated in real time, it is forward-looking and can be used to portray public expectation. In the empirical analysis, there is indeed a linkage between economic fluctuation and public expectation. The empirical analysis finds that official information tends to reversely realize, and free public expectation and professional expectation could self-realize, that is, optimism brings economic growth, and pessimism brings economic decline. A further Granger test finds that there is a two-way causal relationship between economic fluctuations and public expectations, verifying their self-realization relationship. For the mechanism and path of self-expectation realization, we believe that news information shows the consistent and stable preferences of rational individuals, i.e., the financial sentiment score. Such emotion is finally transmitted to the economic activities of entrepreneurs, causing self-realization. This finding could help the public and regulators further understand the interaction between expectation management and macroeconomic regulation. References | Related Articles | Metrics

The Development of Smallholder Farmers in the Context of Enhancing Agricultural Competitiveness in China JIANG Yong-mu, LIU Qian 2021 (05):  92-100.  Abstract ( 606 )   PDF (1873KB) ( 1326 )   There is an urgent need to boost the competitiveness of agriculture as well as to develop the massive smallholder farmers in China. First, this article redefines the agricultural competitiveness into three dimensions based on China's institutional and agricultural conditions, that is, to improve the production competitiveness is the basic requirement, to maintain the safety competitiveness is the strategic bottom line and to increase the market competitiveness is the key. Then, this article analyzes the internal mechanism of how smallholder farmers could improve agricultural competitiveness from these three dimensions. We conclude that we must not ignore the smallholder farmers in China and the key to improve the agricultural competitiveness is to develop smallholder farmers. However, the development of small farmers is limited by internal and external conditions currently. This suggests the following targeted policies:strengthen government support; enhance the self-development ability of smallholder farmers; promote the innovation and application of agricultural technology and material equipment and integrate smallholder farmers into the value chain.

Rural tourists can be divided into four types:functional rational tourists (35.4%), active enjoyment tourists (40.4%), potential development tourists (11.8%) and face perception tourists (12.4%). The development of cultural and creative products in rural tourism destinations should avoid product homogeneity, innovate folk and rural characteristics, guarantee price matching quality on the basis of paying attention to practical function, extend the cultural transmission chain, and promote cultural consumption experience.
