Abstract
Drawing on government service quality theory, we examined the impact of government service quality on new generation migrant workers’ entrepreneurial willingness. This paper proposed that government trust mediates the relationship between government service quality and new generation migrant workers’ entrepreneurial willingness, and the entrepreneurial climate plays a positive moderating role. Using the survey data of 472 new generation migrants, empirical results support the hypotheses. This research reveals that government trust plays an important role in the relationship between government service quality and migrant workers’ entrepreneurial willingness, which has important theory contribution, but also practical implications for effectively constructing government trust and managing migrant workers’ entrepreneurial willingness.

The transformation and sustainable development of China’s social economy cannot be separated from the support of the group of migrant workers
Under the environment that the government pays for efforts to guide and support migrant workers to return to their hometowns to start their own business, a study on the factors and mechanisms that influence the entrepreneurial willingness of migrant workers to return to their hometowns can help the government understand how to improve the entrepreneurial willingness of migrant workers, which has great practical significance for the socio-economic development of urban and rural areas
In the process of economic development, the government must pay attention to the accumulation of talents, and create a favorable external environment for the improvement of innovation or entrepreneurship, solve various human intellectual problems in the process of regional entrepreneurship, promote the establishment of network information support systems, and optimize the allocation and utilization of human resources. These represent the government service quality and will directly affect the development of the regional economy and the maximization of innovation benefits [30], including the entrepreneurial willingness of migrant workers to return to their hometown
Summary
The transformation and sustainable development of China’s social economy cannot be separated from the support of the group of migrant workers. Due to the impact of the international financial crisis and economic transformation and upgrading of China, the current overall employment demand of enterprises has significantly decreased, resulting in more difficult for migrant workers to find a job [1]. Guiding and encouraging migrant workers to return to their hometowns to engage in entrepreneurial actives is an important and effective approach to promote employment and economic transformation. A series of policies promulgated by the Central Committee and relevant ministries and commissions emphasized that focal government should encourage and support migrant workers to enthuse and motivate them to return to their hometowns to start their own businesses. Under the environment that the government pays for efforts to guide and support migrant workers to return to their hometowns to start their own business, a study on the factors and mechanisms that influence the entrepreneurial willingness of migrant workers to return to their hometowns can help the government understand how to improve the entrepreneurial willingness of migrant workers, which has great practical significance for the socio-economic development of urban and rural areas
