The meeting established the important proposition that "practice is the sole criterion for testing truth" and proposed the need to study the laws of socio-economic development, understand China's national conditions, and research the characteristics of Chinese socialism. At that time, Comrade Xu Die was conducting research on the emergence of capitalism in China, while Comrade Qi Yanming was studying the financial and economic history of the revolutionary bases.
