In terms of think tank construction, Liu Chenggong stressed that it was necessary to closely combine it with the features of DHU, focus on decision consulting research, a long-term concern, and produce valuable research results. DHU should cultivate influential and professional representatives, build an interdisciplinary research team, and create a new way of think tank construction with distinctive features. DHU should also build a multilevel academic exchange platform, establish a fully functional information collection and analysis system, boost the commercialization of research findings, deepen international exchanges, media cooperation and interaction with other universities, and improve the influence and communicative effectiveness of the think tank in multiple dimensions. As a result, it can improve discipline construction, talent training, international cooperation, etc.
