It can be proved that although both the opportunity discovery and opportunity creation have positive impact on entrepreneurial activities and growth intension, opportunity creation can have even stronger positive influence than opportunity discovery. Therefore, the Chinese entrepreneurs may have more achievements by starting their business through opportunity creation.
