Reiko Kobayakawa is a very distinctive character in the works of Shanghai Flower. She is not only the proprietress of Tokyo Night Hotel, but also a woman with distinctive personality and rich emotions. Reiko Kobayakawa loves money like life, which is a well-known feature of her personality. Her pursuit of money stems from her understanding of life and her desire for the future. In her world, money is the guarantee of security and the cornerstone of realizing her dreams. So she spared no effort to make money and save money in order to create better living conditions for herself and the people around her.
However, Reiko Kobayakawa is not the kind of person who only values money and does whatever it takes to gain. On the contrary, she is a bit mean and harsh on the surface, but in fact her heart is full of tenderness and warmth. This personality trait is particularly evident in her relationship with Po.
Po is an old friend of Reiko Kobayakawa, and they have a deep friendship. Zi Ling's concern and care for Po is often lost to her relatives. When Po encounters difficulties or troubles, Reiko Kobayakawa always lends a helping hand without hesitation, although her expression may be a little stiff or sharp.
Artistic skills of blooming Shanghai
Blossoms Shanghai gave a lot of things that were not closely related to the story with montage shots, or names and routes that didn't need to be explained, and collections of things that didn't need to be written clearly. Jin Yucheng wrote down a street and a scene, and bloom and Shanghai as a "material life history". Through the basic material existence, he wrote the changes of Shanghai's life history.
Taking specific place names as coordinates, the city of Shanghai is described as a sketch, which makes the characters in the novel more real and sensible. The specific activity place, detailed activity route, repeated place names and building names, every person, every event and even every route all show the author's intention and pour out his feelings.
