Abstract

Rural e-commerce is a specific practice in the context of rural revitalization and common prosperity, but its short average life expectancy is also a serious practical problem. Therefore, it is of great theoretical and practical significance to conduct in-depth research on its development mechanism based on the perspective of common benefit orientation. An exploratory study of Longmei e-commerce using rooted theoretical methods found that: (1) the development of rural e-commerce can be divided into three stages: government-driven period, two-way interaction period, and co-benefit creation period under the perspective of co-benefit orientation; (2) the action path of the three major dynamic factors of policy promotion power, enterprise pulling power, and network synergy power is further identified; (3) and a unique development mechanism that transforms the common benefit orientation into the differentiated competition strategy of the enterprise is excavated. This provides a reference for solving the dilemma of rural e-commerce survival, achieving sustainable development, and promoting the revitalization of rural industries and common prosperity.
