Li Shangyin's ancestral home is in Bo 'ai County. It is believed that according to the existing literature, Li Shangyin's tomb site is in the same place as his ancestors, and it is suggested to further enrich this point from two aspects: historical literature and field investigation.

Experts suggest that in order to deepen Li Shangyin's academic research, Bo 'ai County should quickly establish Li Shangyin Memorial Hall, restore Li Shangyin's cemetery, collect historical materials, works and related cultural relics of Li Shangyin's research, and establish Li Shangyin's research base in Bo 'ai.
