His novels become fascinating for the deep and broad discription of social lives, clear display of the age of rapid change, the summary of complicated social contradictions and the meticulous figure portray and the other characteristics. Among these the most vivid and successful one should be his means of forming figure images of the figure image. But here, the most noteworthy is his understanding of sophisticated personality and the handle of it. It make great enlighment significance on contemporary literary world even today.Maodun emphasizes the form of the typical image in his literary works. But regarding how to form typical image better, Maodun chose the way of carving the sophisticiated personalities. Maodun is full aware of the value of understanding the sophiscated personality and aesthetic value, and practises it consciously during the course of creation. From ct. to man can find out the mature course of from the knowledge to exploration of this skill of literary creaction. The first section of this article " theoritical knowlege and practical exploration" describes the course of the probe and practice concerning about the considerable significance of the form of "complicated character" in the novel creation.
