Going down the tall building, going out of the deep courtyard, walking into factory workshops, fields, campus classrooms, and residential communities … Since the implementation of the education on the theme of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era of the Supreme Leader, the vast number of party member cadres have gone deep into reality, grassroots and in-depth in accordance with the requirements of "in-depth investigation and study", "improving investigation methods, avoiding formalism and bureaucracy" and "improving the quality of research results, and effectively transforming research results into practical measures to solve problems and improve work"
Investigation and research is the heirloom of our party and the basic skill of doing all the work well. Investigation and research is a university question and a basic skill that party member cadres must master. Only by constantly improving the ability of investigation and research can we make all decisions and all aspects of work more in line with the actual situation, objective laws and people’s wishes.
Recently, reporters from Outlook Newsweek went deep into the grassroots, had in-depth exchanges with local cadres, masses, experts and scholars, and learned about the specific practice of carrying out investigation and research in thematic education in various places.

Problem-oriented, finding the real problem
In early June, a symposium with warm atmosphere was held in Tianjin High Court. The comments were made by 11 entrepreneurs in Tianjin, and the records were recorded by the United Front Work Department of Tianjin Municipal Committee, Tianjin High Court, Tianjin Federation of Industry and Commerce and other departments. During the two-hour discussion, there was one topic on both sides: how to create a good legal environment and promote the construction of private enterprises ruled by law.
An entrepreneur attending the meeting said that the development of private economy and the construction of business environment for private enterprises have attracted much attention. "The rule of law environment is the largest business environment and the market environment that private entrepreneurs are most looking forward to. This symposium caught the focus of our attention. "
Investigation is the source of insight. What to investigate and study is the primary problem. "Investigation and research must find the real problem, and the most taboo is to make a general investigation. The research content should be determined in combination with the requirements of the central government and local conditions, highlighting key points and hitting the key points directly, and solving real problems, real problems and problems in the process of reform and development. " Wang Fei, president of Shaanxi Academy of Social Sciences, said.
The reporter visited various places and found that the local party committees and governments around the world have taken fewer offices and ran more on the spot around comprehensively implementing the spirit of the 20 th Party Congress and promoting high-quality development. Cadres at all levels go straight to the problem, carry out a big sorting out of problems and a big investigation of difficult problems, and strive to get through the blocking points, silting points and difficulties in implementation.
Shaanxi Province proposes to conduct in-depth investigation, comprehensive research, targeted efforts and fixed-point blasting on the blocking points that restrict the high-quality development of economy and society, the pain points that are strongly reflected at the grassroots level, the hot issues that the masses are generally concerned about, the long-term unresolved difficult issues, and the focus issues with potential risks.
In the field of real estate in Xi ‘an, there are some difficulties and pains that people are concerned about. Zhang Xiaobo, deputy director of Xi ‘an Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau, said that when Xi ‘an Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau formulated the work plan of Daxing investigation and research, it closely focused on its functions and responsibilities, and included the "Baojiao Building" in the special rectification of theme education, and tested the effectiveness of theme education with the results of its work.
By visiting enterprises, visiting projects and asking people, the Housing and Construction Bureau of Xi ‘an carried out five rounds of risk investigation, and found out the problems and main contradictions in 77 residential projects and 53,900 houses in the city, which laid the foundation for realizing the "one floor, one policy" to solve problems.
The person in charge of the real estate market department of Xi’ an Housing and Construction Bureau introduced that taking the Suning Yunzhu project in Xi’ an High-tech Zone as an example, the total number of planned houses was 1,928, and the contract agreed to deliver it to the owners on June 30, 2022. In November 2020, due to the break of the capital chain, the progress of the project was sluggish and intermittent work stopped, which led to the delay in delivery. In order to get rid of this hard bone, the Housing and Construction Bureau, in conjunction with the public security, capital regulation and other departments, visited the project site and the group headquarters many times, held discussions with enterprises and owners, and strengthened the supervision and recovery of funds through various means. Up to now, all houses have been fully prepared for delivery.
Shandong Province proposes to face up to problems, find problems, solve problems, find out the situation, identify problems, put forward countermeasures, be brave in wading into dangerous beaches, solve problems, promote work and overcome difficulties in the investigation.
In Bajiaowan New Town, Yantai, Shandong Province, the construction site of Yantai University Development Zone Science and Education Park is busy. More than 2,500 construction workers and nearly 100 construction machinery at the site were working intensively, and the project construction of the science and education park was stepped up. According to the plan, the first phase of the project covering an area of 610 mu will welcome the first batch of college students in September this year.
Yantai University found in the survey that some brother colleges with new campuses have been "rebuilt as soon as they are built" because they have not decided in advance to settle in colleges or disciplines. To this end, Yantai University set up a special work class, strengthened the research on problems, and implemented all 109 suggestions on change and optimization from 11 departments and colleges, which ensured the stable connection between the project construction and the actual use needs of various units to the maximum extent.
In Tianjin, the National Supercomputing Tianjin Center is using generative artificial intelligence to develop multi-modal large models to further improve the quality of investigation and research.
Kang Bo, director of the data intelligence department of the center, said that compared with traditional research methods such as symposiums and questionnaires, generative artificial intelligence-assisted research has two advantages. First, you can communicate with thousands of respondents at the same time, and get to know the latest demands of the masses in a more timely manner; The second is to avoid the scruples of the masses when they reflect the situation face to face, and they can hear more truth and truth.
"The ability to find problems is the basic skill of leading cadres. The ability to find the real problem is an essential quality for outstanding leading cadres. " Wan Jinpeng, a professor at the School of Marxism at Chang ‘an University, said.
Goal-oriented improvement of research methods
"Comprehensive use of discussion interviews, random interviews, questionnaires, expert surveys, sampling surveys, statistical analysis, etc., and full use of modern information technologies such as the Internet and big data to carry out investigation and research", which is the investigation method listed in the "Work Plan on Great Investigation and Research in the Whole Party" issued by the General Office of the Central Committee of the CPC, aims to improve the scientificity and effectiveness of investigation and research.
The reporter learned that in the theme education, all localities should constantly improve the methods and means of investigation and study in order to grasp the new situation, discover the new situation and answer the goal of the new lesson, strive to improve the extensiveness of the research objects, the pertinence of the research contents and the scientificity of the research methods, combine traditional research methods with modern research methods, and combine micro-investigation with macro-investigation, qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis to improve the efficiency and quality of the research results.
Pay attention to "going out" learning experience, "sinking down" to find ways, and make concerted efforts online and offline … Some places focus on expanding research channels, enriching research methods and innovating research methods.
The Education Department of Shandong Province takes information technology as the starting point for problems found in the investigation, and builds a platform of "handling complaints as soon as possible". More than 150 colleges and universities in the province have completed the docking of provincial and university platforms, realizing data collection and interconnection between provincial and university platforms. Relevant departments use big data to regularly sort out the common and common problems reflected by teachers and students, analyze and judge teachers and students’ needs and work blind spots, and respond to teachers and students’ concerns in time from the source.
Being at the grassroots level, being at the grassroots level, and having face-to-face communication with the masses will help to accurately check the pulse.
In 2023, the number of newly enrolled school-age children in Shandong primary schools is expected to increase by 560,000, a year-on-year increase of 41.1%, and there is a degree gap in 103 of the 136 counties and cities.
Facing the problems of "insufficient educational resources and uneven distribution" that ordinary people are concerned about, the Shandong Provincial Department of Education has adopted a "four noes and two straights" survey, went deep into areas and schools with heavy degree pressure to understand the situation, earnestly sought solutions, and adopted comprehensive measures such as "digging inside and expanding outside" to cope with the peak challenge of primary school enrollment. By the end of May, 284,100 first-year primary school degrees in autumn semester had been reserved in all parts of Shandong, and 33 counties and cities had completed the degree reserve needed in autumn.
With the depth of the Internet changing daily life, the Internet has become an important channel for the masses to reflect problems and express their demands. Taking the online mass line well is also an effective form of research.
Recently, Tianjin held an activity of "reuniting youth and painting Binhai City" for college students to enter Binhai New Area. In order to find out the ideological trends and participation needs of college students in advance, the Youth League Committee of Binhai New Area distributed questionnaires to 13 universities in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei before the event.
"We have collected more than 4,300 valid questionnaires. By analyzing the questionnaire, it can be found that 68% of college students’ expectations for activities are to obtain useful recruitment information. " Zhan Yue, secretary of the Youth League Committee of Binhai New Area, said that according to the survey results, the Youth League Committee of Binhai New Area added industrial tours to the tour routes, focusing on introducing the development of local high-tech enterprises to college students, and also added online and offline job fairs, which significantly improved the satisfaction of the activities.
Results-oriented, strengthening the transformation of research results
The basis of investigation and research lies in "investigation", the key lies in "research", and the key lies in finding a good solution to practical problems. With the in-depth development of theme education, all localities and departments are sorting out the problems found in the investigation, forming a list of problems, a list of responsibilities and a list of tasks, establishing a list of the transformation and application of research results, and evaluating the effectiveness of the investigation and research.
In Linqu County, Weifang, Shandong Province, the local organization departments conducted investigation and research through questionnaires, interviews and other forms, and found that the problem of cadres’ "doing more and doing less, doing better and doing worse without comparison" has not been well solved. After in-depth analysis, the organization department of Linqu County Committee believes that the key reason for this problem lies in the false style and poor mechanism.
In this regard, Linqu County has specially set up a "challenge competition" mechanism-county-level cadres, "top leaders" and middle-level cadres participate in the fight according to monthly and quarterly classification, and show their work performance. "Fighting and defending not only shows what the cadres have done, but also shows how effective the work is, inspiring the work passion of catching up with and learning from each other." Pan Xicai, member of the Standing Committee of Linqu County Committee of Weifang, Shandong, told the reporter.
The ultimate goal of investigation and study is to promote the solution of practical problems. The reporter found that with the deepening of theme education, some localities and departments are turning the research results into policy measures to guide practical work.
Since the theme education was launched, the agriculture and rural areas have sent nearly 900 cadres from party member to 30 provinces and more than 650 counties to carry out research, and systematically sort out the development of key work in the field of agriculture, rural areas and farmers, the key and difficult tasks faced, the key and urgent problems, and the urgent needs of farmers.
Among them, the Department for the Promotion of Rural Social Undertakings focused on improving the long-term management and protection mechanism of rural latrines, went deep into Hebei, Guizhou, Shanxi and other places to understand the difficult problems and suggestions in the follow-up management and protection of household latrines, summarized and refined local good experiences and practices, and introduced a number of typical models explored at the grassroots level.
At the end of May, the national rural toilet revolution site meeting was held in Pingshan County, Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province. The Department for the Promotion of Rural Social Undertakings proposed that all localities should learn from these experiences, practices and typical models based on their own reality to solve the practical problems of the masses.
"The courtyard layout and house design are different. In the future, we will guide farmers to manage and protect toilets in a more targeted manner." Hao Ligang, secretary of the Party branch of Jiangli Village in Pingshan County, said.
In Tianjin, focusing on the problems of slow land transfer, long overall design cycle and many pre-construction links in construction projects, Tianjin Economic and Technological Development Zone, on the basis of full investigation, launched version 4.0 of the whole process approval service for optimizing construction projects in mid-June, which clarified the approval reform goal of "the whole process from land acquisition to construction should not exceed 100 natural days", and formulated 12 innovative measures for quick batch and quick operation of project construction, greatly improving the projects in Tianjin Economic Development Zone.
