Although all these efforts ended in failure, his courage and persistence gave great inspiration to later revolutionaries and reformers.

In China's movement, he always paid attention to the rights and interests of the working class and social injustice. He made an in-depth study of China's socialism and put forward specific theoretical suggestions. He vigorously promoted his ideas in publications such as New Youth and mobilized the broad masses to join the revolutionary ranks.

He made some mistakes in leadership, for example, he was too biased towards intellectuals and ignored the strength of the broad masses of peasants and workers, and he had some individualistic tendencies in organization. These problems eventually led to the decline of his leading position in the party.
Generally speaking, Chen Duxiu is a great and complicated figure.
His thoughts and actions had a far-reaching impact on China's society and history. His efforts provided an important ideological foundation for China's modernization and revolution. Although there are some defects, Chen Duxiu's contribution and influence cannot be ignored. He is one of the indispensable figures in the modern history of China.
