Features: We have entered the era of Chinese executives, whether it is acknowledged or not. This era once again confirms Dickens' saying in A Tale of Two Cities about "the best of times" and "the worst of times": chasing their professional ideals on the knife's edge, experiencing life's ups and downs in the storm. Chinese executives are forging ahead on a thorny path, driven forward by the conflicting interactions of external and internal factors. The lack of platforms, the gap between knowledge and action, and the competition in the market force Chinese managers to exhibit a twisted survival state of premature infants, which manifests as deviations in business practices. The interplay of expectations from all parties then evolves into an unbearable physical and mental pressure. However, none of this should be an excuse for the absence of an era for managers. Precisely this lack has prompted us to focus on the survival conditions of Chinese executives. By comprehensively showcasing the survival landscape of Chinese executives, we hope that the analysis based on this foundation and the resulting reflections will provide valuable insights for Chinese executives to move toward healthy development.
