With the continuous improvement of social and economic development as well as the rising level of demand for spiritual life, the design of cultural and creative products has ushered in new opportunities and challenges. Therefore the research related to cultural and creative products design is an inevitable choice for industrial innovation and market competition. The article aims to analyze the frontier hotspots and trend evolution of theoretical research on cultural and creative design in China by presenting different research fields, personnel and institutions embodied by cultural and creative products, thus providing a forward-looking development reference for China's special cultural and creative product design practice.

In this paper, the visualized citation analysis tool — CiteSpace V is used to analyze and map the relevant literature of Chinese cultural and creative design in CNKI (Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure) as the data sources, through bibliometric methods, in order to study the application development of Chinese cultural and creative design and provide reference for the application research of Chinese cultural and creative industries.

With the improvement of China's comprehensive strength, cultural self-confidence and strategy are being paid more and more attention by scholars; with the future research of China's cultural and creative design theory, cross-integration becomes the future trend; with the gradual maturity of China's cultural and creative design methodology, how to choose the right method for pioneering research is a difficulty for the future development of cultural and creative design; with the continuous development of China's economy, the method construction of innovative cultural and creative industry system becomes the focus of future research; with the continuous progress of science and technology, the integration of emotion and product industry is the mainstream of future development on cultural and creative design.

Through an objective empirical analysis of the development of Chinese cultural and creative products, it will broaden the research horizons of relevant scholars, understand the development direction of China's cultural and creative industries, enrich the design practice application of Chinese cultural and creative products, enhance the understanding of international counterparts on Chinese cultural and creative design research and promote the exchange among international counterparts.

This study examines the impact of corporate performance and corporate size on corporate environmental information disclosure of A-share listed enterprises in Shanghai and Shenzhen during the period 2008–2017. In this study, corporate size (size) is represented by total assets, and corporate performance (Jzc) is represented by return on net assets. Environmental information disclosure quality (EID) is measured by the Environmental Information Disclosure Index (EIDI). Non-balanced panel data models are used. In order to eliminate the influence of unobservable factors during the sample period, year fixed effects and industry fixed effects are included. The results show that corporate size and performance both promote the improvement of EID quality. Measures such as improving corporate management efficiency and setting clear environmental performance indicators can help improve corporate competitiveness and core values, thus providing important support for improving EID quality. Future research is recommended to focus on the influence of internal corporate characteristics such as corporate nature (state-owned or not), equity structure, and executive background on EID quality.

To clarify divergent conclusions on the impact of alliances on green innovation (GI), this study aims to examine the non-linear relationships between dual alliance and GI, as well as the mediation of green knowledge reconstruction (GKR) and the moderation of alliance tie strength.

Based on the theory of knowledge-based view, a moderated intermediary model is constructed by introducing GKR and alliance tie strength. The hypotheses are validated by using hierarchical regression analysis and bootstrapping method, with questionnaire survey data collected from 316 manufacturing firms in China.

Empirical results show that both exploratory alliance and exploitative alliance have an inverted U-shaped effect on GI, in which GKR plays a mediating role in the above relationship. Moreover, alliance tie strength weakens the intermediary role of GKR in the relationship between exploratory alliance and GI, whereas it enhances the intermediary role of GKR in the relationship between exploitative alliance and GI.

Findings reveal the non-linear effects of dual alliance on GI and clarify the inconsistent conclusions by proposing the moderated intermediary effect model. Moreover, this research reveals the mechanism of dual alliance on GI through the mediation of GKR and enriches the boundary conditions by integrating the moderating role of alliance tie strength.

Artificial intelligence is one of the most significant and active fields of study in the last few years. Artificial intelligence-derived robotic technologies known as chatbots are gaining interest from both academic and industry sectors. By analyzing the development and patterns of research on the chatbot phenomena within the tourism field, this study seeks to develop a theoretical framework for the interaction between chatbots and tourism.

The Web of Science (WoS) database’s 33 articles on chatbots related to travel and hospitality were examined between 2019 and 2024 using VOSviewer software for bibliometric and thematic content analysis.

Research on chatbots for tourism and hospitality appears to be in its early stages. The factors influencing tourists' intentions to use chatbots have been thoroughly researched; the attitudes, perceptions and behavioral intentions of destinations, travel agencies and restaurant patrons regarding chatbots were examined, and it was found that the quantitative research approach was dominant. In addition, the majority of the studies are based on a particular theory or model.

This is one of the first attempts to directly comprehend and depict the interconnected structures of studies on the interaction between chatbots and tourism through the use of network analysis. Furthermore, the study’s findings can offer academics a comprehensive viewpoint and a reference manual for more accurate assessment and oversight of the chatbot-tourism interaction. Regarding the lack of research on the topic and the fragmented structure of the studies that exist, it is imperative to provide both a comprehensive overview and a roadmap for future investigations into the usage of chatbots in the travel and hospitality sector.
