Abstract

Creative enterprises can bring new opportunities to the development of the industry and are new engines for promoting regional development. Creative enterprises play an active role in promoting regional economic development, solving employment problems, strengthening cultural education, and improving the ecological environment. But at the same time, there are still many problems in the process of developing creative enterprises. For example, who are the real beneficiary, and what price are paid when developing creative enterprises. What are these problems and how to avoid them are the main content of this article.
