文章基于地级及以上城市工业企业数据，考察了僵尸企业对城市创业活跃度和创业质量的影响，研究发现，僵尸企业比例的提高对提升城市创业活跃度和创业质量均产生了显著的抑制作用，且对提升创业质量的抑制作用更强。进一步的研究发现，僵尸企业对西部城市、更低级别城市的创业活动抑制作用更明显；国有僵尸企业比民营僵尸企业对创业的抑制作用更明显。影响机制检验结果表明，僵尸企业通过融资约束、创新挤出和资源配置等路径抑制了创业行为。今后，政府应尽量减少对国有僵尸企业的过度保护，西部地区城市和级别更低城市的政府还应进一步加强对僵尸企业的有效处置和治理，建立健全僵尸企业退出机制，营造更为健康的城市创业环境，助推城市创业量和质的提升。

Based on data from industrial enterprises in cities at or above the prefecture level, this paper examines the impact of zombie enterprises on the activity and quality of urban entrepreneurship. The research finds that the degree of urban zombie has a significant inhibitory effect on the entrepreneurial activity and entrepreneurial quality of cities. Comparatively speaking, the degree of zombification has a greater inhibitory effect on entrepreneurial quality than entrepreneurial activity. Further research shows that zombie enterprises have a more prominent inhibitory effect on entrepreneurial activities in western cities and lower-level cities. State-owned zombie enterprises have more obvious inhibitory effect on urban entrepreneurship than private zombie enterprises. The influence mechanism shows that zombie enterprises inhibit entrepreneurship through financing constraint effect, innovation crowding out effect and resource allocation distortion effect. In the future, the government should minimize the excessive protection of state-owned zombie enterprises, and the governments of cities in the western region and cities with lower urban levels should further strengthen the effective disposal and management of urban zombie enterprises, establish and improve the exit mechanism of zombie enterprises, create a healthier urban entrepreneurial environment, and promote the improvement of the "quantity" and "quality" of urban entrepreneurship.
