Abstract

There are already papers discussing the role factories of the Rong brothers played in the contemporary economic field. Few analyze the historical perspective of the Rong brothers’ factories. This paper mainly focuses on the characteristics of the entrepreneurial implementation of the yarn mills founded by the Rong brothers in Shanghai to infer the changes in the focus of entrepreneurship in Shanghai. By focusing on the characteristics of the implementation of the yarn factory founded by the Rong brothers in Shanghai, this paper tries to figure out stand the entrepreneurial thinking of the Rong brothers and the focus of their work, understands the reasons and motives of the Rong brothers for choosing to found a yarn factory in Shanghai, and observes whether the entrepreneurial thinking of the Rong brothers changed before and after the First World War. If it changes, analyze the reasons for the change and try to infer from it the change in the whole entrepreneurial thinking in Shanghai and its causes. Studying the changes in the direction of entrepreneurship brought about by World War I and the reasons for them can contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted impact of war on society. Analyzing the shift in entrepreneurship in Shanghai can help provide a deeper understanding of the impact of the economy on people's lives and the foundations on which large cities are built.
