Based on the interpretive structure model of system dynamics, this paper constructs a hierarchical structure model of factors affecting the entrepreneurial learning from failure, which has been also tested through a case of entrepreneurship. The study finds that: (1) there are 15 factors influencing entrepreneurial learning from failure that play different hierarchical roles; (2) the entrepreneurs’ self-efficacy, as a key influencing factor of entrepreneurial learning from failure, can be cultivated and improved by enriched the entrepreneurs’ successful career experience. In addition, emotion regulation after the entrepreneurial failure is also a key influencing factor of the entrepreneurial learning from failure and the emotion management is deemed as an important part of entrepreneurship education; (3) the entrepreneurial education may affect the entrepreneurship learning from failure indirectly by affecting the entrepreneurs’ self-efficacy; (4) the economic conditions, the policy support, the industry characteristics and the cultural sensemaking of failure are the macro factors that may affect the entrepreneurship learning from failure.

A livestreaming supply chain composed of a single manufacturer and a single streamer in the low-carbon market is examined. Motivated by the actual production and operation, both the manufacturer and the streamer have a chance to dominate the supply chain. Low-carbon strategies and livestreaming marketing modes of the supply chain are studied. The impacts of the consumer’s price sensitivity coefficient, low-carbon preference, and streamer’s promotion sensitivity coefficient on the equilibrium results are further studied. The results show that: the streamer achieves the optimal level of promotion effort in the resale mode under both power structures. The manufacturer achieves the optimal low-carbon level in the commission mode when the promotion sensitivity coefficient is smaller under both of two power structures. The streamer’s profit is optimal in the resale mode, while the manufacturer’s profit is optimal in the commission mode when under the streamer-led structure. Two parties’ profits are optimal in the commission mode when the promotion sensitivity coefficient is smaller under the manufacturer-led structure. The low-carbon level, streamer promotion effort and selling price in two livestreaming marketing modes will increase when the streamer promotion sensitivity coefficient and consumer low-carbon preference increase and will decrease when consumer price sensitivity increases under two power structures. Lastly, the selling price in resale mode is always higher than that in commission mode under two power structures.

The existing approaches to predict trust values in social commerce are based on personal social relationships without considering historical transaction information about products in social commerce, which results in false recommendations, and deceptions cannot be differentiated. Trust values extracted from social links can improve the performance of trust and reputation mechanism, but the rates from these links in social commerce can be false because of the stakeholders’ manipulation for personal interest. And the rates are also dynamic and inconsistent. Therefore, this paper proposes a comprehensive trust model by fully exploiting the effects of the transaction attributes and social relationships on users’ trust. The proposed model refines the granularity of trust evaluation and improves the discrimination of recommended information. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed model performs better and predicts more accurately than the three models compared under the same circumstance.

The Price decision and game process is studied between mobile network provider (MP) and service provider (SP) in China mobile internet supply chain. The game results in decentralized decision pattern and centralized pattern are analyzed and compared. The results show that centralized decision can make Pareto improvement, where the consumer payments are lower, but supply chain profits are higher than which under decentralized pattern. The cooperation between MP and SP needs coordination based on the mechanisms of explicit and incentive revenue share contract.
