Generally for the purpose of profit, the mission is to maximize the interests of investors, customers, employees and the public, and to provide products or services in exchange for income. It is the product of social development, and develops with the development of social division of labor. Enterprises are the main body of market economic activities; Under the socialist economic system, the coexistence of various enterprises constitutes the micro-foundation of the socialist market economy. Enterprises have three basic organizational forms: sole proprietorship, partnership and company, and corporate enterprise is the most important and typical organizational form in modern enterprises.

Development:

The word "enterprise" in modern Chinese comes from Japanese. Like some other basic words commonly used in social sciences, they were translated from Japanese in the process of introducing western culture and systems on a large scale after the Meiji Restoration in Japan, and after the Reform Movement of 1898, these Chinese words were introduced into modern Chinese in large quantities from Japanese. (Related and similar to the usage of the word enterprise, there is also the word "business")

During the planned economy period in Chinese mainland, "enterprise" was a common word used side by side with "institution". In the 1978 edition of Cihai, "enterprise" is defined as "an independent accounting economic unit engaged in production, circulation or service activities"; The definition of "institution" is: "a unit that is led by a state organ and does not conduct economic accounting".

The usage of the word "enterprise" has changed.

Common usage refers to various independent profit-making organizations (which may or may not be legal persons), and can be further divided into companies and non-corporate enterprises, the latter such as partnerships and sole proprietorships. There is also a special title which is described in the auction law. The "auctioneer" in the auction law refers to the auction enterprise. For example, the world Chinese auctioneer refers to the world Chinese auctioneer Co., Ltd., not a "person".

According to Statistical Bulletin of National Economic and Social Development of People's Republic of China (PRC) in 20021year, there were 25,000 newly registered enterprises per day in 20021year.
