According to the analysis of "Take the Third Way-Be a Freelancer with You", more than half of the self-employed in China are survival entrepreneurs, not opportunistic entrepreneurs. In other words, they can only be self-employed, survive on their own, find their own way out, and do not have the function of creating employment opportunities. They are self-reliant freelancers.

There are more than 7.5 million private enterprises in China, with 87 million employees, more than 32 million individual industrial and commercial households and 65 million employees, and the number of employees in China's individual and private economy has reached 654.38+52 million. This shows from another side that individual and private enterprises have greatly eased the employment pressure of society, while non-public enterprises that have successfully started businesses have continuously expanded employment opportunities.
