Strictly speaking, "Mirror and Flower" is only inspired by the prose poem "Clouds and Waves", and is not a reference.

"Mirror and Flower" is an original youth literature short story written by Jin Jingcheng, which has only 4,000 words, but it tells a tragic and beautiful love story.

The story plot is:

A young Chinese writer is used to sleeping during the day and writing at night. She loves words deeply.

The beautiful writer loves novels of a Mexican male writer very much, and loves him as well. The Mexican male writer loves her too. He came to China to visit her and propose to her. She refused. She did not want to marry far away to Mexico and was used to living in China. The Mexican male writer returned to China.

Later, a Chinese businessman with a beard appeared. The businessman said that he liked her words very much and kept pleasing her. She clearly didn't love the businessman but accepted him. She was very lonely and wanted to get rid of her longing for a Mexican male writer.

One day she discovered the true face of the businessman. It turned out that the businessman had several women outside, including a married woman. She quarreled with the businessman. The businessman confessed that he pursued her because she was beautiful and he couldn't understand her words at all. The businessman not only did not feel guilty, but instead slapped her hard and called her stupid like a pig. At midnight, she lay alone on the desk and cried.

The businessman came again the next night, not apologizing, but trying to insult her. He had been possessing her evilly for a while, but was not satisfied. He wanted to forcibly invade her and torture her on this night. But the businessman didn't know that she was actually very strong. The businessman forced her to a corner, and she broke the mirror with her fist, picked up a piece of fragment and pointed it at her throat. The businessman didn't believe that she would commit suicide and continued to approach her. She suddenly stabbed the fragment into the merchant's neck, and the merchant was dead!

...

Jin Jingcheng used innovative writing techniques in his writing. Instead of narrating the story in a regular way, he borrowed a mirror and a pot of cerebral cerebral to present the story from a unique perspective.

There is a mirror and a pot of Epiphyllum in the study of the beautiful writer. The mirror was bought from an ordinary craftsman and placed on the side of the desk. Epiphyllum was specially brought to her by a Mexican male writer from Mexico to China and said: "Epiphyllum is native to Mexico. I buried my longing in this Epiphyllum. No matter how far apart, there is Epiphyllum and I will be with you."

Mirror and Epiphyllum both love beautiful writers deeply. Mirror thinks she is beautiful. Her cheeks, figure, smile, eyebrows, eyelids and melancholy all make the mirror feel tempted. Whenever night falls, she will wake up and look in the mirror, make a naughty expression on the mirror, and then take a shower to write.

The Epiphyllum feels happier than the mirror, because when it is late at night, it can see her writing under the desk lamp as long as it opens its eyes. She often whispers to the Epiphyllum, so that the Epiphyllum feels that it is her confidant. Although the Epiphyllum blooms for a short time, it knows that it belongs to its own destiny and does not feel pitiful because she is by its side.

The arrival of the Chinese businessman with a beard made Mirror feel disgusted. When Mirror saw the merchant kissing her, she cried. The Ecliptic Epiphyllum also hated the merchant. She thought the businessman was very dangerous, but she could only watch her in a tragedy.

Epiphyllum would rather be the protagonist of the tragedy, but unexpectedly, the protagonist would be a mirror. The mirror was broken by a beautiful writer with his fist. A piece of mirror yelled wildly at the merchant, broke free from her hands, and pierced into the merchant's neck. Epiphyllum sighed: "I am just a Epiphyllum, but I must shed tears for that mirror tonight. Tonight I will bloom all night and never wither, and serve as a memorial to the mirror."

The short story "Mirror and Flower" does use innovative writing techniques, showing Jin Jingcheng's talent in novel writing innovation. The overall style of the novel combines reality and illusion, and has a bit of an illusionistic realism.

Mo Yan, a Chinese writer who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2012, mostly his novels are hallucinatory realism, and his representative work "Fatigue of Life and Death". His reason for winning the Nobel Prize in Literature is that through hallucinatory realism, people's stories, history and contemporary society are integrated.

Some media think that Mo Yan's novel is magical realism, which is caused by translation errors, but is actually hallucinatory realism. Magical realism originated in Latin America. As a unique literary style in Latin America, it has distinctive and unique characteristics. It combines news-like realism with magical fantasy, adopts blurring techniques and mythological models to express Latin America, history and culture and real life. Its creative principle is to "turn reality into fantasy without losing its reality". The representative work is Marquez's "A Hundred Years of Solitude".

"Mirror and Flower" just has a bit of hallucinatory realism. After all, it is just a youth literary novel and a short story.

...

Jin Jingcheng's writing efficiency is relatively high. He only took two hours to finish "Mirror and Flower".

At this time, Jin Jingcheng started to modify it carefully.

During the modification process, Jin Jingcheng suddenly realized something was wrong.

He discovered that his three short stories, "The Piano Prince Without Hands", "Philosopher in the Courtyard" and "Hailang", all wrote stories about Chinese people. Tonight's "Mirror and Flower", subconsciously set the heroine as a Chinese woman and a Chinese businessman. This shows that Jin Jingcheng will still subconsciously regard himself as a Chinese person until now.

This point needs to be changed. Since Kim Jingsung lives in Korea now, "Mirror and Flower" was published in "J-Young Literature" in South Korea, it would be better to change the protagonist to a Korean. So he changed the Chinese beautiful writer to a Korean beautiful writer, the Mexican male writer remains unchanged, and the Chinese businessman is changed to a Korean businessman.

After modifying it, Jin Jingcheng looked at his phone and it was already 1:00 a.m. after the second half of the night.

Jin Jingcheng immediately sent the document of the short story "Mirror and Flower" to Yao Yihan's email address, and also sent a text message to Yao Yihan to explain.

Unexpectedly, Yao Yihan called immediately and said in surprise: "President Oppa, have you actually written a short story specifically for "J-Young Literature"?"

Jin Jingcheng said "Hmm": "You haven't fallen asleep yet?"

Yao Yihan said "Yes": "In a few days, I will bring a few models to a fashion show. Several sets of clothes have not been designed yet, so I am now working in the company."

Jin Jingcheng thought to himself that this girl is really not easy now, and said with concern: "Don't stay up late for too long."

Yao Yihan said: "I know, I will go to bed in another hour and I will sleep directly in the company's office."

Jin Jingcheng asked: "Do you have a quilt?"

Yao Yihan was moved: "I'm carrying a quilt."

Jin Jingcheng said "Oh": "Good night."

Yao Yihan smiled and said, "Good night, President Oppa, have a good dream."
