Ho bisogno di vs Ho bisogno che
When expressing a need for an action, Italian uses 'ho bisogno che' followed by a subjunctive clause, not 'di' + infinitive.
Subjunctive after 'che'
The verb after 'che' must be in the subjunctive mood (venga) to indicate a desired or uncertain outcome.
Past participle as adjective
'Risolto' is the past participle of 'risolvere' used here as an adjective describing the state that should be achieved.
Adverb placement
'Subito' (right away) is placed at the end of the sentence for emphasis, but can also appear before the verb for a slightly different rhythm.

Cultural Tip
In Italian, the construction 'ho bisogno che + subjunctive' is common in formal or semi‑formal settings. It sounds more polite than a direct command, yet still conveys urgency. In very informal speech, Italians might drop the subjunctive and say 'Devo risolvere questo subito' or simply 'Risolvi subito!'. Also, remember that using 'subito' can be perceived as demanding, so pairing it with 'per favore' or a softening phrase (e.g., 'se possibile') can make the request sound more courteous.
