Abstract: Based on the grounded theory, the three-level coding of the deeds and materials of 30 new country sages selected in Henan Province is carried out, and the "condition-path-result" theoretical model of Henan's new country sages participating in township construction is constructed. On this basis, the participation path is analyzed and summarized. It is considered that the ways of these rural elites' participation in rural construction mainly include giving full play to the capital advantage, establishing the interest connection mechanism, giving full play to the intellectual advantage to promote the endogenous development of agriculture and rural areas, bringing into full play the demonstration advantage to participate in the inheritance and innovation of local culture and giving full scope to the local advantage to build a new relationship network, which provides a theoretical and practical basis for the new country sages' participation in rural construction in Henan and other regions.
